Chapter 739

After the gun was fired, Madeline felt something tugging on her thoughts. At the same time, a muffled crashing sound appeared in her mind as well, and it was… a car crash.

In the next second, a lot of memories started flooding back in front of Madeline’s eyes, including how she used to so stubbornly love someone named Jeremy Whitman. Even if he was cold and heartless to her, she would still love him deeply. Then, the image of her doing everything for him without complaints appeared in her brain.

She remembered.

She remembered everything.

She also remembered how she stopped hating Jeremy before the car crash.

That day, in front of the house, she heard Jeremy sincerely telling Jackson about how remorseful he felt. Moreover, the sincerity on his face made her let go of her hatred toward him.

‘I’ve already stopped hating him.’

Madeline finally understood.

Her hatred toward Jeremy after that was all influenced by Felipe.

Felipe…

Madeline could not imagine how such a gentle and kind man would have such a scheming heart.

“Jeremy, think of the bullet just now as you repaying me for the sake of our relationship. Now, I won’t go easy on you no matter what.”

Felipe’s cold voice pulled Madeline back to reality.

She came back to her senses and saw Felipe pointing the dark muzzle of the gun at Jeremy’s heart.

They were standing very close to each other, so Jeremy would undoubtedly die if Felipe decided to fire.

Madeline’s heart started beating erratically. At this moment, she heard Jeremy saying calmly, “Yeah, I miss Lillian a lot, but before I find the real person who murdered her, I won’t allow myself to die.”

His tone was firm and he looked extremely confident.

“Heh.” Felipe scoffed, and there was a dark look in his eyes. “Then, let’s see if you’re faster than my bullet.”

After Felipe said that, he pulled the trigger.

The bullet fired out quickly from the muzzle at the speed of light.

However, the moment the bullet was fired out from the gun, Jeremy managed to dodge it!

Madeline ran out when she saw this.

Felipe’s face turned dark. It was obvious that he was not happy.

However, he quickly loaded the gun again and did not give Jeremy a chance to dodge before he pulled the trigger.

A spark appeared on the muzzle and the bullet fired out quickly.

Felipe curled the corner of his lips and was excited to watch Jeremy bleed out. However, within a few nanoseconds, he saw a figure appearing in his vision.

“Linnie!”

“Eveline!”

Jeremy and Felipe called out Madeline’s name at the same time.

The bullet passed through Madeline’s right shoulder. She let out a muffled sound due to the pain as the glaring redness invaded the two men’s vision.

“Linnie!” Jeremy never expected Madeline to appear at this moment. He also did not expect Madeline to run in front of him without hesitation, taking the sudden bullet for him.

Jeremy’s heart was broken when he saw Madeline’s face turning white as she frowned in pain.

Dumbfounded, Felipe looked at Madeline who had suddenly appeared to take the bullet for Jeremy.

“Why?”

He could not accept this nor could he understand this.

“Why are you still willing to risk your life for this man after everything he’s done to you?”

Madeline endured the debilitating pain. There was a tenacious and fearless glint in her clear eyes.

“I’m not saving him. I just don’t want to owe any of you anything.”

“What?” Felipe’s eyes darkened as he could not understand.
