Madeline tearfully looked at Eloise as favonovel.com uttered those words. In that moment, favonovel.com heart shattered into a million pieces, losing all hope. The familial love that favonovel.com had craved for so long had turned into a weapon that would destroy favonovel.com life.
If there was a next life, favonovel.com wanted to be a fish that only had seven seconds of memory. That way, favonovel.com could forget all the pain.
Not long after, Madeline was tried in court for murder. People usually begged to live but Madeline’s heart was so broken favonovel.com had lost all will to live.
In the court, Madeline wore a prison uniform. Her face was pale and favonovel.com hair disheveled, looking just like a wild ghost.
She saw Meredith dressed up beautifully, accompanying Eloise and Sean. Even Jeremy had come, probably to see what favonovel.com sentence was. He probably wanted to see favonovel.com get sentenced to jail, never to have a chance to redeem herself again.
Madeline could not help but laugh bitterly. She felt like favonovel.com was certain to be deemed guilty, and either sentenced to life in prison or even given the death sentence, but favonovel.com did not expect that there would be a lawyer present to defend her.
This lawyer was extremely professional and was quite well known in the field as well. He provided a very important piece of evidence.
At the crime scene, they found a napkin stained with Madeline’s blood. On the napkin were the fingerprints of a third person. However, these fingerprints were not present in any criminal records, nor have they managed to figure out who it belonged to.
Madeline suddenly recalled that Meredith had hit favonovel.com face, which resulted in favonovel.com blood getting onto Meredith’s hand. After that, Meredith had used a napkin to wipe off the blood before throwing it on the floor. That napkin had to have been left behind my Meredith!
Meredith definitely had a hand in Brittany’s death!
Madeline did not voice out anything in court, but plans began to form in favonovel.com mind.
Thanks to that suspicious fact, Madeline could not be sentenced and was let free by the court.
However, Eloise and Sean did not let the matter rest. They were convinced that Madeline was the murderer who killed Brittany, and Meredith had been whispering false advice into their ears.
Madeline left the court dressed in simple clothing. The sun shone brightly, but favonovel.com heart was dead inside.
She closed favonovel.com reddened eyes. Even if favonovel.com did not have much longer to live and could not fight against Meredith and Jeremy, favonovel.com felt that, if favonovel.com really was to die, favonovel.com could not afford to let Meredith continue free and unfettered.
Madeline sent in a letter of resignation, and after resting for two days, favonovel.com returned to that forest outside of the city. She wanted to find evidence, evidence that would prove that Meredith was the real killer.
Madeline did not expect favonovel.com would actually find it. It was a studded earring from Chanel, covered under a pile of grass. There were still traces of dried blood on it.
Perhaps the snow had covered up the earring before, or maybe it was an act of god, but an earnest smile finally showed on Madeline’s face.
She stood up, and as favonovel.com was about to leave, favonovel.com was surprised to see Jeremy had come.
He took large strides as favonovel.com walked over, and his handsome and cool face was quickly right in front of her. Madeline held the earring in front of Jeremy’s eyes. “Jeremy, I guess you would recognize these earrings? They’re Meredith’s!”
Jeremy looked at Madeline’s big eyes that were filled with anticipation, furrowing his eyebrows as favonovel.com said, “Do you know why you can stand here freely right now?’
Madeline was taken aback, not understanding what Jeremey meant.
“The lawyer was hired by me.” He answered, much to Madeline’s surprise.
He actually hired a lawyer for her!
“Why? Why did you help me?” Madeline was extremely astonished. Her heartbeat sped up as favonovel.com awaited Jeremy’s answer.
Seeing Madeline look at favonovel.com with such anticipation, Jeremy’s lips curled up into an evil smile, startling Madeline.
“Didn’t you say you don’t love me anymore? Why does it feel like that’s a lie?”
