She had to stay alive until the day Meredith got her retribution!Madeline did not successfully leave Glendale. Jeremy would bring her back to Whitman Manor occasionally.Old Master Whitman was weirdly fond of Madeline and was oddly kind to her. He even patted her shoulder and said, “This child looks so familiar. Do you think we were grandfather and granddaughter in our previous lives?”To be honest, it was not only the old master who had this feeling, but Madeline also felt the same.The moment she met the old master, she felt like she had seen him before.Whenever Madeline went to Whitman Manor, aside from pretending to be gentle and kind to Jeremy, everyone was treating her as if she was an eyesore—especially Meredith.Initially, she was able to kick her away and get the position of Mrs. Whitman successfully, but now, they could not get past Old Master Whitman. Getting the position of Mrs. Whitman now was as difficult as flying.Monday afternoon, Madeline was looking for a jo

One minute was up in a blink of an eye.Madeline was woken by Meredith’s cries. Jeremy looked at her coldly and pressed three numbers on his phone. He was about to call the cops!“No!”Madeline’s tightly wound nerve finally snapped.She walked in front of Jeremy with a pale face. “Jeremy, I truly didn’t hide your son! I won’t do that kind of thing even if I despise Meredith!“I experienced the pain of being separated from my own flesh and blood, so I know it feels even worse than death. I’d never—”“So you’ll only be happy if Mer goes through this pain as well, right?” Jeremy interrupted Madeline. His gaze was like sharp knives, stabbing Madeline’s heart mercilessly.“Madeline, a leopard never changes its spots. A woman like you can die 1,000 times and still the resentment in my heart will never be diminished!”Hiss.His furious words penetrated Madeline’s heart like bullets that she was unable to dodge away from.“Don’t even think about coming out after going in now,” Jeremy

The man told her his location before hanging up.Madeline called Jeremy instantly, but she noticed that he had probably blocked her number.Then, she looked at her empty contact list. The only number she could dial now was Old Master Whitman’s.However, after thinking about it, Madeline gave up that thought.Time did not wait, and Madeline did not have any other choice. She called a cab and told the driver the address.The driver was a friendly-looking man. When he saw that Madeline was pale and in pain, he wanted to send her to the hospital out of kindness. After Madeline thanked and rejected him, they continued their way to their destination.About half an hour later, she finally reached the location the man gave her.It was somewhere in the countryside that was surrounded by mountains and bodies of water. Trees with yellowing leaves were everywhere.The night wind blew past her, the bone-chilling coldness invading her entire body.Madeline shivered, and the tumor in her sto

‘Really?‘So you only made a promise to Meredith in this lifetime?‘So what you said back then were all just meaningless words? And I was just a scenery that you passed by in your life that’s not worth remembering.’Hehe.Madeline closed her eyes. She could not tell whether it was tears or rain that drenched her eyes.Before she had the energy to stand up, Tanner and she were brought into the cop car.During the 48 hours in detention, Madeline could not escape from being beaten up again.However, she was numb to all this. She was so numb that she did not feel any pain when she started vomiting blood.Only tears escaped her eyes uncontrollably. The tears seared her heart, blurring her vision and drowning her heart.Madeline crawled on the ground and got to the iron bars. She received all kinds of kicks and punches on her back.When she looked at the sunlight outside, she smiled lamentably.While she was living in a world that she had created herself for so many years, that ma

Meredith stopped putting on her pitiful performance and looked at Old Master Whitman with an awkward expression on her face.The old master’s face was solemn and his manner was imposing. “You’re a woman who meddled into another marriage and you even gave birth to a shameful illegitimate child with so much courage of your convictions. Not only are you not shameful about what you’ve done, but on the contrary, you’re proud of yourself. The Whitmans don’t have a granddaughter-in-law who doesn’t respect and love herself.”“...” The corner of Meredith’s lips twitched as her fake gentle mask was about to crack.Perhaps she had never expected herself to be such a character in the old master’s heart.No wonder the old master did not like her.Madeline saw Meredith clenching her fists. She was finding it difficult to keep up her act, and yet, she still could not drop her kind and gentle facade.“Dad, you can’t say that. Madeline was the one who meddled in their business first. She’s the mi
