“Mom, you have to believe me. That video isn’t real!” Meredith looked at Jeremy’s mother after she said
that. “Mrs. Whitman, you should know what kind of person Madeline is. Why would I want to harm her?
She’s not someone who’s upright anyway!”
“Mer, don’t cry. I believe you.” Eloise chose to believe Meredith without even hesitating. Then, she
looked at Madeline and Felipe with hatred in her eyes. “Felipe, you’re falsely accusing my daughter in
public to ruin her reputation. I won’t let you get away with this so easily!”
“Your daughter?” Felipe snorted. “Just because she’s your daughter, you’re willing to turn a blind eye
even if she has done something so heinous?”
“You…”
“You can see it in the video clearly. Everyone here would know if it’s fake. Meredith, you said this video © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
was taken recently, so let me ask you this. Even if Vera was impersonating Madeline in the video, then
who’s that woman who looks exactly like you? Plus, who’s impersonating those guests and Jeremy’s
mother?”
“…” Meredith parted her lips and said nothing when faced with Felipe’s questions.
She could not find any excuses to mislead the people here anymore.
The reason was that Felipe was telling the truth.
“Enough!” Eloise glared at Felipe. “Madeline stole Mer’s boyfriend and kept hurting her again and
again. She deserved what happened to her. It has nothing to do with my daughter! She deserved to be
wrongly accused. Who told her to have such a bad personality?”
“So I guess the truth isn’t important to you, Mrs. Montgomery. The most important thing is that
everything your daughter did is right and justifiable, is that so?” Madeline’s melodic voice sounded.
Eloise peered at her in contempt. “What does this have to do with you?”
“It has nothing to do with me. I just pity Madeline. She’s dead and she still had to carry the burden of
such a heinous crime.” Madeline lamented as she stared straight at Eloise.
“Mrs. Montgomery, you’re so protective of your daughter, but have you ever considered that Madeline
also has parents? If her parents find out about the grievances she had suffered, how heartbroken they
would be? Or perhaps, Mrs. Montgomery, you can put yourself in their shoes. If Madeline was your
daughter—”
“I don’t have such a shameless daughter!”
Eloise’s words felt like a sharp knife slicing Madeline’s heart.
It was just a lie when she said she did not care.
Her heart would still ache.
“Mer, I’ll support you no matter what. Ignore these people. Let’s go!”
Eloise scowled at Madeline in disgust and was about to leave while holding Meredith’s hand.
Madeline pressed her lips together in devastation. She could feel tears pricking the corners of her eyes.
When the loving mother-daughter duo was about to walk out of the crowd, they stopped all of a
sudden.
“J-Jeremy?” Meredith widened her eyes in shock. She stared at the man who had seemingly appeared
in the crowd out of nowhere. She stammered, “Jeremy, why are you here? W-When did you get here?”
Jeremy did not answer her immediately. On the other hand, he strode over to Madeline.
His stance was graceful, and he looked like an overbearing tyrant. There was an icy glow on his
expressionless but handsome face.
Madeline gracefully stood where she was. In reality, however, she was at a loss as she watched the
man walking toward her.
Jeremy’s eyes were on her. There were whirlpools in his narrow eyes, and it felt as if she would be
sucked in if she looked at him for more than a few seconds.
Meredith felt that something was not right. She let go of Eloise’s hand and ran over to Jeremy, holding
his arm without caring about anything.
“Jeremy, let me explain—”
Jeremy stopped. “You don’t have to explain.”
“Jeremy…”
“It’s so rare to have everyone from the upper-class and the media in one room. I want to use this
opportunity to announce something,” he said as his eyes landed on Madeline. He had a strange
expression in his eyes.
“Miss Vera, you don’t mind me saying a few words in your territory, right?”
