Chapter 766

“I’ve always hated that woman ever since the beginning. I can’t believe that she’d team up with that damned b*tch Yvonne to kidnap me!” Karen pursed her lips into an expression of distaste before she turned her head to smile at Jeremy. “I’m glad to see that you’ve chosen the right woman, Jeremy!

Felicity’s a great girl. This time, you’ve got to sever all your ties with Madeline!”

“Madeline? Isn’t her name Eveline?” Jeremy was confused.

“Her name used to be Madeline, but that was when she was adopted by the Crawford family. On the topic of the Crawfords, that was a family full of heinous people, especially that Meredith. Just what kind of misfortune have our family garnered to meet such a b*tch? I will never know!”

Karen spouted in disgust. Looking up, she found Felicity frowning. Her face was dark as she appeared to be deep in thought. Then, Karen continued, “You might not know this, Felicity, but that Meredith Crawford is so much worse than Madeline!”

“Meredith might look obedient to the eyes, but she was truly abominable and vile underneath. She had no morals at all and even killed people! Good thing she’s dead, though. People like her are a waste of oxygen.”

“Is that so?” Meredith smiled lightly, suppressing the anger within.

Karen nodded with certainty. “Jeremy’s luck was horrible to have met such horrible women before, but it’s a relief that he’s found such a wonderful woman like you now, Felicity. I’m sure our family will only be getting better now that you’ve become a part of it.”

While she was displeased, Meredith reveled in the fact that she was about to officially be Jeremy’s wife. Not wanting to delay it any further, she tugged on Jeremy’s sleeve with a coquettish remark. “It’s still early, Jeremy. How about we go get registered in the town office now?”

Staring at her, Jeremy’s mind echoed with the words Madeline told him on the flight.

“What’s wrong, Jeremy? Do you not want to get married to me?” Meredith pretended to look disappointed.

Jeremy smiled faintly. “How could that be? Let’s go.”

“Okay!” Meredith broke into a joyful smile.

Watching Jeremy go upstairs to take his birth certificate, Felicity took the opportunity to hand Karen a check worth 200,000 dollars. “We’re a family now, Aunty Karen. It’s my first time being someone’s daughter-in-law, so please forgive me if I make any mistakes.”

Karen pretended to be reluctant as she accepted the check. “You’re such a good kid, Felicity. Jeremy sure lucked out this time.”

Meredith sneered internally. Oh, she was going to wreak havoc once she married into the family! She would make Karen’s life a living hell!

Madeline went to look for Jeremy the moment she left the hospital. She was just arriving at the villa when she watched Jeremy and Felicity drive away in the same car.

Following behind them, they arrived at the entrance of the town office.

Was Jeremy really going to get registered with Felicity?

Just what did Felipe do to Jeremy that would make him listen to Felicity so obediently?

Staring at the impatient expression Felicity wore, Madeline refused to allow this woman to continue holding control over Jeremy. A fierce glint sparked in Madeline’s eyes as she made a decision.

Felicity and Jeremy walked toward the doors. They were just about to enter when Felicity suddenly received a message.

Her expression changed as she stared at her phone. “I left something in the car, Jeremy. I’ll be back soon.”

Jeremy nodded. “I’ll be right here.”

Felicity smiled and turned around.

Watching Felicity walk back to the car park where her car was, Madeline quickly tied her hair up into a fresh ponytail and draped a jacket over her shoulders before she went to meet Jeremy by the doors.

“Jeremy,” she called out with a smile.

Jeremy was dazed for a few seconds as he stared at Madeline before he parted his lips. “Did you change?”

“The outfit just now didn’t seem right, so this one is better. Let’s go and get registered.”

“Let’s go.” Jeremy turned around and took the initiative to grab Madeline’s hand, intertwining their fingers.

Jeremy’s hand was warm in hers and Madeline felt her heart race at the contact. The scene reminded her of how she felt the first time they stepped into this place years ago.

Now that she thought about it, they had run in circles only to be each other’s other half again.

Jeremy was nowhere to be found when Meredith returned from the car park to the town office’s entrance. She was about to call him when she saw Jeremy walking out from the office with another girl’s hand in his.

Upon closer inspection, Meredith realized that the woman was Madeline.
