Chapter 1102

Naomi tried to flatter Ryan using this opportunity.

“Rye, let’s get back together, okay? I’m the one who truly loves you.”

With Naomi incessantly pestering Ryan, he eventually lost his hold on Madeline.

Madeline ran out the door and into the autumn wind and rain. “Jeremy, Jeremy!”

She yelled at the vast emptiness in front of her. “If you can’t let me go, then why did you hide from me?

Do you think I won’t be in any hurt if you hide from me?”

Jeremy was standing around the corner and was glad that it was raining.

At least Madeline would not be able to pick up on his scent.

Ryan ran over and picked Madeline up by the waist when he saw her dressed so thinly while standing in the rain.

“Eveline, calm down.” Ryan comforted her as he held the struggling Madeline before bringing her back inside.

Naomi could not stand how much Ryan cared for Madeline. As such, she barged in front of them to stop them.

“Madeline, you homewrecker! You seduced my fiancé! Rye was initially my boyfriend!” Naomi roared angrily.

Madeline ignored her, but Naomi continued to slander her.

“Eveline, I know why you’re upset. Jeremy is going to die, right? Haha! It’s your fault for being fickle and seducing Rye! Your man dying is your karma for all of this!”

Naomi cackled wretchedly.

Madeline suddenly clenched her fist and kicked Naomi on the shoulder.

“The people who deserve to die are heinous rats like you! My Jeremy won’t die!”

“Ah!” Naomi screamed and fell.

Then, using this opportunity, Ryan carried Madeline inside the house and locked the door.

Madeline looked at the closed door, then at the drizzle outside. She felt as if she was an entire world away from Jeremy.

“Jeremy…”

Tears started streaming down her face.

She did not want to leave like this. She wanted to look at him. She wanted to see how he was now. She wanted to see if he was thinner and if he was suffering from the poison.

However, she gradually lost the ability to fight back.

Before she fell unconscious, she vaguely saw Jeremy’s face.

After Naomi climbed up from the ground, she slammed her hands on the door angrily. She was also berating Madeline non-stop with all kinds of horrible curses.

However, she felt someone creeping up behind her as she was yelling.

When she was about to turn around, she felt a dull pain in her neck before she lost consciousness.

After some time, Naomi woke up groggily and felt a sharp pain on the back of her neck.

It was still raining, and she was abandoned on the muddy grounds in the outskirts of town. Her entire body was drenched.

She scrambled to get up, but after she took two steps forward, she saw a man in black in front of her.

Naomi knew that it was Jeremy. It was difficult for her to forget such a handsome face.

At this moment, his pale face was filled with malice.

Naomi quickly turned around to run away when she recalled how Jeremy had poured gasoline on her and almost burned her alive.

Jeremy pulled out his gun neither too quickly nor too slowly and fired it near Naomi’s feet.

“Ah!” Naomi screamed and fell on the muddy ground. She also got a mouthful of mud when she fell.

She backed away in terror as she watched Jeremy approaching her slowly. “Don’t kill me. I won’t do it again. I won’t cause any trouble for Eveline again. I really… Ugh!”

Before she could finish, Jeremy grabbed her by the neck.

“Why do you have to upset my Eveline? Are you tired of staying alive, hmm?”

“Don’t… M-Mr. Whitman, I was wrong…” Naomi gasped and pleaded.

However, Jeremy only tightened his grip on her neck.

“So what if you know your mistakes? Will you change? You’ll only keep annoying my Linnie. So, someone like you should disappear from this world forever. Coincidentally, I need someone leading me to the gates of hell after I die, so I think you should do it.”

“No…” Naomi’s back turned cold from fear. “Mr. Whitman, you can’t kill me. If I die, you’ll never know the truth about your in-laws’ death!”
