Chapter 904
…
Perhaps it was due to the psychological effects that were brought about by this nightmare, so Madeline somehow felt a little discomfort in her stomach.
She went to the hospital for an examination. Jeremy had to chair an important meeting, hence he could not accompany her.
After the check-up, Madeline gave the test sheet to Adam who then read it carefully.
“Eveline, I’ll prescribe another medicine for you. This medicine will not affect the fetus. It’s mainly used to stabilize your emotions. It’s enough for you to take one a day. You should not be working anymore in the near future so that you can get a good rest.”
Madeline knew that her mood as a pregnant woman would often fluctuate, and her dream last night was so vivid that she still remembered a little bit of it.
She nodded, thanked Adam, and went back.
When she had already left the room, a person leisurely walked out of the small room in Adam’s office.
Lana was smoking a cigarette, expelling clouds and mist. “It seems the medicine is slowly taking its effects on her.”
Adam perused Madeline’s real test results. “Yes, she’ll soon have hallucinations about the things she least wants to see.”
“What I want has never been impossible.” Lana raised his red lips with satisfaction. “Now what about Miss Montgomery’s family… I could leave her with nothing overnight, and I want her most beloved man to belong to me completely. He needs to obey me sincerely and become obsessed with me.”
She puffed out some smoke. “Although.. I’m not patient enough to wait for Jeremy to slowly become addicted to this. I want a faster method,” Lana said solemnly and began formulating her plan.
Knowing that Madeline would be raising her baby at home these few days, Lana would go to the company to look for Jeremy from time to time.
She would smoke her special cigarette every time, parading herself ostentatiously in front of Jeremy.
Jeremy was extremely disgusted, but this woman was using his care for Madeline to threaten him. “Jeremy, I’m not a kind woman. I have money, and money can be exchanged for a lot of things, including lives.
Madeline looked at the text on the screen and wanted to reply, but Lana sent another message again: [Jeremy will tell you that he has a client to meet and will be coming back later, when in fact, he’s already at the last hotel we were at with a room booked. He’ll be ready to be gentle with me. If you don’t believe it, you can come and have a look.]
Lana’s tone and manners were even worse than Meredith’s.
Madeline did not want to believe it, but it did not take long before she actually received a call from Jeremy saying that he had a client to meet and would return much later. He also asked Madeline to stay overnight at Montgomery Manor.
As soon as the call was hung up, Lana sent another inciting message. It was a photo of Jeremy driving.
The superior side profile of that man could not be easily faked.
Madeline wondered if Jeremy had been caught by Lana like how she was threatened by Felipe at the beginning, which was why he was cooperating with that woman like this.
She rushed to the hotel, and the door of the suite seemed to have been opened specially for her.
Madeline hesitated at the door for a few seconds before opening it. As soon as the door opened, she heard Lana’s coquettish voice. Madeline walked closer while holding her breath, and the scene she saw next made her speechless.
