Chapter 1074
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
ââ¦â
Lana was on the verge of collapsing internally when she heard Jeremyâs comment.
âNo! This is impossible!â
She roared, unable to accept the fact that all this while, she had just been a pawn to Jeremy.
âNo, Jeremy. You love me. Iâm even pregnant with your kid. How is it possible that you donât love me?!â
Lana emphasized.
However, Jeremy was not bothered at all.
The colleagues of IBCI came up to arrest Lana. Seeing the situation made her reach out for a pistol from her purse.
âWho dares arrest me?!â She raised her head proudly and stared at Jeremy who was all calm. She slowly became devastated. âJeremy, stop cracking jokes with me. Are you trying to tell me youâre just a spy from IBCI sent here to the Stygian Johnson Gang? Hmph, how is this even possible? Donât you forget, thereâs still poison inside your body. Without me, youâllââ
âDo you really think youâll be able to have control over me with that stuff?â Jeremy interrupted and counter-questioned. He then raised the corner of his eyes and added, âThe moment I reappeared before you is the moment I sentenced you to your death. Lana, Iâve long ago not smoked the cigarettes you provided. The ones Iâm smoking are provided by a professor from IBCI who specially designed them for me. Itâs used to counter the toxins and poison.â
ââ¦â The only shred of confidence left in Lana was gone.
âIt turns out he has stopped smoking the cigarettes I gave!â
It turned out his intention behind getting close to her was all for that single moment, to grasp concrete evidence and arrest her!
Lana found her mind in a messed-up state. She could not compose herself from her emotions. She suddenly pulled the trigger and shot the IBCI members.
However, those members of the IBCI were agile enough to dodge Lanaâs bullet.
Lana was unsatisfied and wanted to continue firing. Jeremy went up at lightning speed and grasped the gun from Lanaâs hand. Just when he was restraining her, Jeremy took out a handcuff from his waist and placed it over Lanaâs hands.
âLana, as an investigator of the IBCI with an SSA identity, I hereby arrest you.â
ââ¦â
Lana was dumbfounded.
Her eyes were gigantic as she stared at Jeremy who was handcuffing her.
She had heard Jeremy revealing his identity a few seconds ago. âPeople in the IBCI with the SSA rank are no ordinary investigators.â
âYouâre such a fool, Lana! You got a spy to become your boyfriend! All those achievements that we worked so hard on, theyâre now gone in the hands of a fool like you!â The obese man roared.
Lana froze as she stared at the man who was personally placing the handcuffs on her.
âNo, Iâm not buying this⦠I donât believe it!â
Lana still could not accept the fact.
âJeremy, I donât believe that you have no feelings for me! If you donât like me, why did you spend every night with me? Besides, how did I even end up being pregnant with your kid?â
Jeremy glanced at Lana who was having a hopeful look on her face. Without emotions, he asked, âDid you really think that Iâm the one whoâs spending every night with you?â
âWhat do you mean?â
âHmph.â Jeremyâs eyes were full of ridicule. âIn my entire life, except for the lady I love, Iâve never touched another woman, let alone an evil woman like you who has a rotten heart.â
Lanaâs head was throbbing when she heard Jeremyâs scornful reply. âYouâre muttering gibberish. Itâs obviously you. I clearly saw it with my eyes, itâs you! The child in my womb is also yours!â
âYouâve got it wrong, Lana. The person you saw was not me, but him.â Jeremy slowly raised his eyes and looked forwardâ¦
