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 said, hitting the dial button of his phone. He still called the cops in the end.
It was the end of summer and nearing the start of fall. Suddenly, a bolt of lightning struck as a clap of thunder rumbled loudly. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Madeline shuddered subconsciously while her face turned white instantly.
The memories of the nights when she was beaten violently and the night when she was inducted into labor appeared in her brain again.
She felt her heartstrings snap as she knelt before Jeremy’s feet while having an emotional breakdown. “Jeremy, please believe me! I didn’t do it!”
Madeline was terrified.
Despite being strong, she was still a woman at the end of the day.
Madeline knelt in front of Jeremy as she grabbed his pants tightly. Tears drenched her eyes. “Jeremy, please believe me!” She roared. She was almost in a state of despair.
She did not forget how she used to beg him like this and yet, he had kicked her away mercilessly.
However, this time, he was hesitating.
When Madeline thought Jeremy was about to let her off the hook, Meredith’s cries triggered Jeremy at the right moment. “Jeremy, will Jack leave us forever?”
Jeremy sent Madeline to prison again without a moment’s more hesitation after Meredith said that.
Inside the interrogation room, Madeline kept on repeating that she did not do it. However, no one believed her.
This scene was exactly like what happened back then.
Madeline had lost all hope.
Fate loved to torture her. She recalled what she had done and realized she only loved the wrong man. However, she had to pay such a huge price for it.
When she was on the brink of giving up, the officer released her.
When she walked out of the station, she saw Jeremy’s car waiting for her.
It was already dark and it was raining cats and dogs. Madeline did not care. She ran straight to the car.
When she was about to say something, Jeremy rolled down the window and threw her phone at her face. Then, he grabbed Madeline’s collar and yanked her close to him. “Did you work with this man to kidnap my son? Madeline, why are you still trying to argue when it has come to this?”
