Chapter 1098
Jeremy had rented a homestay near the beach of April Hill. This entire time, he had been staying there alone.
Every morning, he would repeatedly read all of the messages Madeline sent him during this period. Then, he would go to look at the sea and recall the time when his relationship with Madeline started.
When he thought back to the past, everything was still fine. The only thing that was not fine was how his body was getting weaker and weaker.
Madeline stayed overnight in the mansion alone.
After she woke up, her heart started aching again after she looked at the man in the photo.
She went to look for Ryan to try to know more about Jeremy’s condition.
She tried to control her emotions as she asked Ryan, “Rye, where did the poison in Jeremy’s body come from? You should know, right?”
Ryan did not hide it from her. He said frankly, “It’s Lana. When he lost his memories, Lana filled Jeremy with memories that did not belong to him. She would give him cigarettes every day. The slow-acting poison was inside the cigarettes.”
Madeline was in disbelief. How could someone do that to the person they loved?
“Lana used this slow-acting poison to control Jeremy. She wanted Jeremy to stay by her side and be her man forever.”
Ryan’s explanation made Madeline’s heart ache even more.
He only got hurt and lost his memories on the ship because he wanted to protect her.
“Eveline, not everyone can love someone selflessly. A woman like Lana is certainly incapable of doing that. She didn’t love him. She only had the desire to get him and dominate him.”
What a deranged woman.
Madeline could not endure this. She wanted to look for Lana, but Ryan stopped her. He did not want her to do anything impulsive.
What shocked Madeline even more was that the creator of this poison was the person she trusted the most—Adam Brown.
Madeline finally understood why Jeremy was so determined to stop her from eating the alleged painkillers Adam gave her the day before they got onto the ship. It was because Jeremy had already known Adam’s real identity.
