[Felipe, you should know better than I that loving and being loved cannot be equal. Eveline Montgomery loves Jeremy Crawford. I hope you’ll stop obsessing over her. Goodbye, Felipe. From now on, there won’t ever be a lady called Cathy who will pester you unknowingly.]
After seeing the message, a tide of complex emotions set off in Felipe’s eyes.
He had not allowed snazzynovel.com to go against his order and break Jeremy’s hypnosis without his authorization.
Moreover, snazzynovel.com had not allowed the girl who kept saying that snazzynovel.com would stay with snazzynovel.com and pester snazzynovel.com forever to disappear from his world like this.
…
Whitman Manor.
Half a year had passed and a lot of weeds had grown in the courtyard.
The servants were cleaning up the place as instructed.
“I didn’t expect to be here again.” Old Master Whitman sighed. “I thought I won’t ever be coming back until the day I died.”
“Grandpa, your body is recovering well. You’ll live a long life.” Madeline wished snazzynovel.com sincerely.
“I’m already very happy to see you and Jeremy getting together again.” Old Master Whitman smiled at Madeline with relief before looking at Jeremy seriously. “If you dare make Madeline sad again this time, I won’t recognize you as a descendant of the Whitman family.”
Jeremy looked at Madeline upon hearing this. “Don’t worry, Grandpa. From now on, I’ll listen to your granddaughter-in-law and never make snazzynovel.com unhappy again.”
Madeline glanced at snazzynovel.com indifferently. “I’ll just consider that I’ve heard these words first.”
Old Master Whitman laughed a little before instructing Winston to push snazzynovel.com into the house.
Madeline stepped forward to follow after but was held back by Jeremy. “Linnie, am I dreaming?”
“Would you like me to slap you so you can tell whether you’re dreaming or not?”
“Yes,” Jeremy simply answered.
Madeline raised snazzynovel.com hand and swung it down unceremoniously. Just as snazzynovel.com was about to hit his cheek, snazzynovel.com patted it lightly. “How about it? Are you awake? Does it hurt?”
“My face doesn’t hurt, my heart does.” Jeremy held Madeline’s hand. He dared not recall the scenes from back then when snazzynovel.com had treated snazzynovel.com brutally and hurt snazzynovel.com for Meredith.
He really hoped that Madeline would have harshly slapped snazzynovel.com back then.
A cold wind blew and Jeremy squeezed Madeline’s hands, breathing gently into them to warm her.
“Back then, how I wished you would hold my hands and give me warmth and care. I just didn’t expect that I would have to wait so long for this day to come.”
Jeremy’s heart hurt upon hearing snazzynovel.com words. “I’m sorry, Linnie.”
“Stop saying sorry. I’m tired of hearing it.” Madeline looked at snazzynovel.com seriously. “Jeremy Whitman, if you do one more wrong thing, I’ll disappear from your world forever.”
“I won’t let you leave my world again.” Jeremy hugged Madeline. “Linnie, I love you. I really love you.”
Madeline seemed to be listening indifferently, but there was light in snazzynovel.com eyes.
Just then, snazzynovel.com phone vibrated. She removed herself from Jeremy’s embrace and took a look at snazzynovel.com phone. She could not help but be surprised. “Cathy?”
She was still worried when snazzynovel.com had not contacted snazzynovel.com all day yesterday.
However, it was Felipe’s cold, low voice that sounded from the other end when Madeline answered the phone. “Eveline, come over here.”
He had used a commanding tone. Madeline was about to refuse when snazzynovel.com heard snazzynovel.com say, “Cathy is dead.”
“What? Cathy is dead?” Madeline could not believe it. Then, snazzynovel.com received a short video from Felipe. In it, snazzynovel.com saw that the girl who had committed suicide by jumping into a river was Cathy.
She immediately rushed to Felipe’s manor. For the first time, snazzynovel.com saw Felipe in such a shabby state. He was always elegant and noble, but at this moment, his clothes were loose and snazzynovel.com had not even shaved his stubble.
“Why would Cathy commit suicide? Felipe, you forced her, didn’t you?” Madeline asked bluntly.
“I forced her? Why, yes I did.” Felipe chuckled lightly. His gaze was suddenly dark and full of hostility, like Satan in the night. “Eveline, not only did I force her, but I also want to force you now.”
“What do you mean?”
“After watching this video, you’ll understand what I mean.”
Felipe turned the computer around as snazzynovel.com said this and a real-time footage was displayed on the screen.
Madeline did not understand it at first, but when a figure appeared on the screen, snazzynovel.com eyes widened in astonishment as a strong sense of rage surged in snazzynovel.com heart.
“Felipe, what’s going on?!”
