Chapter 771

Just as Jeremy went upstairs and into the bedroom, he vaguely heard Madeline’s voice calling for help.

He felt his heartbeat speeding up all of a sudden as he ran downstairs before he could even think about it.

He ran to the gates and only saw Madeline getting into the car.

“What happened?” Jeremy walked over and asked.

“No, it’s okay,” the woman responded from inside the car, “I thought there was a mouse just now, so I was shocked. Well then, Jeremy, I’m going home first.”

With that, the car drove out from Jeremy’s vision.

Jeremy felt that something was off but he could not tell what was wrong.

When he turned around to leave, he lowered his eyes to see a single button on the floor by the door.

He picked it up and took a closer look. This gold-colored glazed button was one of the buttons on the coat Madeline was wearing today. How did it come off?

Meredith was driving Madeline’s car. She raised her stern-looking eyes and glanced into the rear-view mirror.

Madeline, who was unconscious, was lying on the seat in the rear compartment at this moment.

Meredith breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the effect of the chloroform was still great.

Although Madeline had struggled, she still could not resist the drug.

Meredith did not want any more accidents. She knew bad guys had a tendency of monologuing too much, so she had to do things decisively. Thus, by taking advantage of Jeremy being in a hypnotized state and Felipe not being in Glendale, she needed to make a big effort to deal with Madeline!

On the outskirts during the wintry 12th lunar month, cold wind rustled.

Meredith stopped the car. Noticing that Madeline seemed to be awakening, she hurriedly got out of the car and dragged the dazed Madeline.

“Get out!” She pulled at Madeline savagely.

Madeline’s head was heavy while her eyes were blurry and distant.

She wanted to see what exactly this place was, but Meredith had suddenly pushed her to the ground.

Something cold and sharp pierced her palm, the tingling sensation sobering Madeline up immediately.

“Madeline, do you remember where this is?” Meredith smiled condescendingly. “This is where Brittany died back then. Do you remember what happened here?”

Madeline squinted her eyes and looked around, her eyes falling on the overcast Meredith. She smiled suddenly. “So you really aren’t dead, Meredith.”

Meredith did not think Madeline’s reaction would be so calm and the triumphant smile on her face cracked a little.

She knelt down and pulled at Madeline’s collar, her expression looking fierce. “Of course, I’m not dead!

How could I die before a sl*t like you? I’ll never let you and Jeremy get together!”

Sure enough, Felicity really was Meredith.

Although she had some speculations, Madeline was somewhat surprised by her admission at the moment.

Meredith had not been shot to death, and the only one who could have saved her was Felipe.

Felipe…

Madeline laughed sarcastically.

“Meredith, do you really think that if I die, Jeremy would fall in love with you? Even if you have a face exactly like mine, he won’t have feelings for you!”

“Shut up!” Meredith had obviously been struck on her sore spot. She reached out and pinched Madeline’s slender neck. “You’re right, he won’t have feelings for me. Even in the past few years, he thought I was the little girl he had made a promise to back then and only spoiled me superficially when in fact, he never touched me even once! But so what?”

Meredith’s smile suddenly became sinister and hideous.

“As long as he thinks I’m you, that’s enough.”

Madeline frowned slightly. “What are you going to do?”
