Chapter 887 Jeremy raised his arm to pull Madeline into his embrace.
“This is my wife. |, Jeremy Whitman, have and will only have one wife—Eveline Montgomery.” His gaze was heavy, and his tone left no room for argument as he reminded Karen.
“I do hope that you wouldn't treat my wife how you used to, Mom. | don’t expect you to be a great mother-in-law, but at least treat her with basic courtesy and respect.” “...” Stunned, Karen's expression darkened. She turned her head to see Madeline smiling faintly at her and the flames within her flared. “What's happening, Jeremy? You just told me that you were getting engaged to Yvette? Why are you with her again? Did you forget what she told you before? She's only doing this to get revenge!” A sour feeling filled both Madeline and Jeremy's hearts at Karen's mention of Cathy.
Jeremy tightened his grip on Madeline’s hand as he explained

No longer in the mood to cook, Karen turned around and called Winston. Her expression remained displeased until dinner.
Seeing Madeline and Jeremy sitting by each other's side, Old Master Whitman did not comment on the past and opted to say with a meaningful smile instead, “I'm glad to see the two of you happy and alright.” “Don’t worry, Grandfather. Linnie and | will continue to be happy.” Jeremy promised as he helped Madeline to the dishes.
Madeline asked the old master if she could take a trip to his room after dinner and was naturally allowed.
Not understanding why she asked, Jeremy followed Madeline to the room. He watched her pick up a picture frame from the desk before staring seriously at it.
Approaching to look at the photo, his gaze warmed while his
tone was tinted with regret. “I still remember how happy we used to be by the sea. I'm sorry | ruined it by mistaking you for someone else.” “You weren't the only one who mistook me. Felipe did as well.” Madeline frowned as she stared at the other girl who had accidentally made her way into the picture. She reminded Madeline of the girl in the photo collage she saw in Felipe’s manor.
Cathy was still a teen in the photo collage, and she looked unnervingly like the girl in this picture.
Jeremy was confused. “What do you mean Felipe mistook you too?” “He kept telling me he loved me and wanted to have me because he thought that | was the girl who brought him back to light when | was young. But I'm not that girl. Back in April Hill, | only ever played with one boy.” Hearing Madeline's explanation, Jeremy remembered Felipe telling him such a thing as well.
He too thought that since Felipe had also met Madeline, Felipe fell for her back then as well.

She took a photo of the framed picture with her phone before spending some time asking the old master how he had been.
Then, they finally returned to their first marital villa.
By the time they arrived, so had Eloise and Sean with Jackson and Lillian.
After putting the two adorable children to sleep, Madeline looked down at her baby bump. This was their third child she bore.
Jeremy approached her from behind with light steps as he raised his arms to loop around her shoulders. Placing his handsome face where her neck met her shoulder, he breathed in her perfume greedily.
Madeline's heart raced, and she was about to push Jeremy away when she heard him speak.
“I want to move to somewhere else.”
Madeline was confused. “Why?” The man’s clear and alluring voice drifted past her ears. “Jack and Lillian are going to have a little brother or sister in a couple of months. We can't possibly expect the three of them to squeeze into the same room. Plus, this house has too many unhappy memories.”
