Chapter 919

Madeline’s fingertips that were gently stroking Jeremy’s photo paused abruptly.

Although she had not seen anyone yet, a face that could make her feel abhorrent had already appeared in her mind.

“Tsk, aren’t you just so sad?” Lana’s triumphant voice spread from far toward her. Madeline raised her cold beautiful eyes and stopped Lana from coming in. “Get out, you’re not welcome here.”

Lana folded her arms with a smile on her face “I’m a friend of Mr. Whitman, and now that he’s dead, it’s natural for me to come and pay my respects.”

She walked forward as she spoke, placing down the flowers she brought.

Madeline held Lana’s wrist to prevent her from offering her flowers. “Lana, don’t you ever think that you can do whatever you want just because you’re from the Stygian Johnson Gang.

“This isn’t F Country, nor the Stygian Johnson Gang’s territory. My husband doesn’t need a shameless woman like you paying your respects. Leave this place right now!”

She snatched the flowers from Lana’s hand and threw them into the brazier.

“Get out.” She did not leave any room for Lana’s dignity.

The smile that was hung on Lana’s face had obviously dissipated, and as her temper rose, Karen ran toward them.

“Eveline, what are you doing? Jeremy’s friend came to pay their respects. How could you treat her like this?” Karen was siding with Lana. It was obvious that as long as an opportunity arose for Karen to go against Madeline, she would never choose to sit out.

When Lana saw Karen defending her, she appeared aggrieved and troubled. “Hello madam, I’m a friend of Mr. Whitman. My name is Lana. I learned that he passed away not long ago and I’m really sad about this. I just wanted to come and give my respects as it’s the least I could do. I didn’t expect Mrs.

Whitman to actually tell me to leave.”

After hearing this, Karen sneered, “Mrs. Whitman? What kind of Mrs. Whitman is she?! Jeremy’s death is all because of her!”

“What? So Mr. Whitman’s death was caused by this Miss Montgomery?” Lana asked knowingly.

As the incident’s initiator, she was feeling delighted.

It was just that her target was Madeline at first. She did not expect that Jeremy would desperately block the bullets for Madeline with his body.

His actions made her feel bewildered, but she only wanted to capture Jeremy’s heart even more.

Karen took three incense sticks and handed them to Lana. “Miss Johnson, I’m Jeremy’s mother. Go ahead and give your respects. If she dares hinder you again, I’ll chase her out immediately!”

Lana felt satisfied. She snickered to herself and stretched out her hand to receive the flowers.

Before she could even touch the flowers, her wrist was tightly pinched by Madeline again.

Lana raised her eyes unhappily and saw Madeline glaring at her with cold, hostile eyes.

“When I ask you to leave, you leave.” Although Madeline’s tone was light, her dangerous aura was still flowing out.

Seeing this, Karen immediately came over to defend her. “Eveline, you—”

“Shut up,” Madeline stopped Karen with a shout as she glanced over sullenly. “Remember what Jeremy told you before? You can dislike your daughter-in-law, but you should at least be respectful and polite!”

“You—”

“I am the one and only wife who Jeremy has had in his life, so I’m his only and veritable Mrs. Whitman.

I want this woman to get out of my house now, no further discussion!”

Madeline swung Lana’s hand away and said domineeringly, “Get out!”

Karen was taken aback by Madeline’s aura. She did not open her mouth and spoke anything for a while.

Lana held back her dissatisfaction. With gloomy eyes, she said, “Eveline, no woman in this world would dare treat me like this. I’m telling you, your tragedy right now is only the beginning. I will play with you slowly.”

Lana threw down her warning meaningfully, then went away while smoking her cigarette.

Madeline looked at the woman’s arrogant back and clenched her fists.

Karen also left with an uncomfortable grunt at Madeline.

Madeline suddenly felt some discomfort in her stomach. It was probably due to anger.

At this moment, Felipe had returned to the living room and was walking toward her. He kindly reminded her, saying, “Lana Johnson is a very vicious woman. You’d better be careful.”

Madeline turned her head and saw the current Felipe. It had been a long time since she last saw his gentle and calm eyes.
