Chapter 1618
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
In the end, Felipe still managed to guess the truth accurately.
Cathy had her back toward him, and her tone was still indifferent. âYouâre overthinking. Theyâre my and Adamâs children. How could I have given birth to the children of a man who wanted to kill me?â
ââ¦â
âI would never.â
After Cathy said that decisively, she took the children out of the conjugal room without stopping.
Felipe felt as if he had all of his energy sucked out from him. His entire body went limp, and he seemed depressed.
Cathy held the childrenâs hands and quickly walked to the entrance. She knew that Felipe would not chase after them, but it felt like if she was a second slower, he could catch up to them and see the entire truth.
However, maybe he had already seen through them.
âOuch!â
Her sonâs pained grunts came from her side. Cathy stopped suddenly and realized that her son had fallen because she was walking too fast.
Cathy quickly squatted and apologized. She comforted him, saying, âIâm sorry, Juan. Itâs my fault. I shouldnât have walked so fast. Sorry, sorryâ¦â
She quickly apologized and started to sound incoherent. For some unknown reason, she even had an impulse to cry that came from the bottom of her heart when she saw her sonâs innocent and untainted face.
When the children saw the tears coming out from Cathyâs eyes, they looked at each other innocently before lifting their hands together to wipe the tears away from Cathyâs face.
Cathy started crying even harder when she felt the concern and care from her children.
She glanced at the conjugal room and felt her heart aching even more.
âFelipe.
âI guess itâll never be over between us.
âIf thereâs a next life, I still hope we wonât meet anymore.â
She thought about this silently and lowered her eyes that were filled with tears.
When she was about to recompose her emotions and leave, her phone rang.
When she saw the caller ID, she did not think too much before answering. Jeremyâs voice came from the other end of the phone.
âCathy, Iâm in St. Piaf. I need your help.â
âYouâre in St. Piaf?â Cathy was astonished. Then, she heard what Jeremy needed from her.
âAlright, Iâll go back now and send the related information to you.â Cathy wiped her tears away and gave him an affirmative answer.
Before she hung up the phone, she suddenly heard Jeremy asking, âMy uncle has been sentenced. He has the right to appeal but decided against it. Do you know about this?â
Cathy held her phone and looked at the blue sky. However, her vision was gray.
âI went to see him just now.â
âYou saw him? Did you tell him about the childrenââ
âI wonât tell him,â Cathy said decisively even though she figured that Felipe already had an inkling about it.
âHe hurt me so deeply back then and I want him to leave with regrets.â She seemed to be avenging herself heartlessly, but her heart was bleeding without control.
âIf he knows that he has children with you, heâll choose to appeal,â Jeremy said the last sentence softly in the end, âHowever, Iâll respect your decision no matter what.â
After he hung up the phone, Cathy stood in front of the door of the detention center silently for a very long timeâ¦
St. Piaf.
Jeremy stayed for about a week in a famous local hotel.
During this period, he learned about the situation with the Louis family.
Carter had a special identity over here. Yesterday, he even announced that he would be marrying a mysterious woman. The wedding ceremony would be held in his hotel in two days.
Of course, Jeremy knew who this mysterious woman was, but he would never allow this to happen.
He sat in front of the computer. After waiting for about half an hour, he finally received the information Cathy sent him.
Jeremy read through it quickly and then went out after some preparations.
However, when he opened the door of the hotel, a figure appeared in front of him and blocked his way.
