Chapter 1572
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
After going through a series of unfamiliar roads, Madeline was taken to an abandoned dock.
There was a dilapidated little cabin on the edge of the dock. The two men tied Madelineâs hands, locked her in the small cabin, and left.
Madeline tried to untie herself and call for help, but her efforts were all to no avail.
A long time had passed, and it was almost sunset before Madeline heard footsteps approaching from outside the cabin.
After a while, the dilapidated wooden door in front of her was pushed open. When she saw the people coming in, Madeline felt much calmer.
âActually, I sort of guessed that it was you.â Madeline looked at the woman who walked in. âNaomi, I told you a long time ago that Jeremy canât be fooled. He knows exactly who his wife is. â
Naomi stared at Madeline with disgust at how casual she seemed. There was a lot of dissatisfaction deep down in her heart that she wanted to vent out. She wanted to rage at Madeline, but she endured it and followed with a triumphant chuckle.
âOh Eveline, youâre still so stubborn, even when youâre face-to-face with death,â Naomi mocked, âSince youâre already here today, donât even think about going back anymore.â
âReally? You want to kill me?â Madelineâs expression remained unchanged, and she even raised a smile.
Naomi wanted to continue to pretend to be composed, but when she saw how calm and controlled Madeline was, she finally could not hold it in anymore.
She strode over and stretched out her hand to strangle Madeline by the neck. Madeline could not defend herself as her hands were tied behind her back. Naomiâs eyes were full of envy and hatred as she stared fiercely at Madelineâs unique pair of mesmerizing misty eyes.
âYes, Iâm going to kill you!â
Naomiâs lips twitched as she revealed a threatening sneer.
âWhen the time comes, Iâll tie you up and throw you into the sea to become food for the fishes. What if you can swim? I donât believe you can swim ashore like this!
âSo what if youâre the real Ms. Montgomery? The first lady of Glendale? Oh, Eveline, when you die, Iâll take over your identity and become the only Eveline Montgomery. Iâll show everyone and ruin your reputation everywhere. Iâll let the entire Glendale see how morally corrupt you are and how slutty you are!â
From Naomiâs words, Madeline could tell that the woman wanted to take her identity and use her name to do all sorts of extreme things.
When Naomi saw Madelineâs eyebrows furrowing, she looked delighted.
âDoesnât that feel bad? That you have to carry a bad name after you die? Itâs all because you killed Rye!â Naomi suddenly resembled a person with split personalities as she roared at Madeline.
âEveline, itâs all because of you! If it werenât for you, Rye and I would not have been separated! He wouldâve married me and pampered me forever! But because of you, I was rejected by Ryeâs parents and he started to find me disgusting! Itâs all because of you!â
Naomi roared like a madwoman and tightened her hand around Madelineâs neck.
âCough, cough.â Madeline could not help but cough slightly.
She was wearing a mask, and the air was already not circulating as much, so she was even more breathless.
When Naomi saw how uncomfortable Madeline looked, she laughed again. âHahaha!â
âIs it painful? Jeremy had strangled my neck this way before too. He did it for you. He was so angry that he wanted to kill me, but now the tables have turned! Eveline, I wonât let you have the chance to escape. Youâll be gone from the face of the earth very soon and Iâll become the one and only Eveline Montgomery!â
When Naomi said that, her eyes sparkled with excitement. She looked even more excited.
âAnd you, Eveline, take your ugly burnt face and die!â
When Naomi said that, she stretched out her other hand and strangled Madelineâs neck viciously.
She had made up her mind to kill Madeline.
It was because she knew that it was either going to be Madeline dying or her getting caught.
How could she let herself get caught?!
âEveline, time to go to hell to atone for Ryeâs death!â
