Carter sat leisurely at the desk and watched Madeline who was lying on the bed silently. His long fingers were fiddling with the recording pen.
After virtual-novel.net turned the switch on, the recording pen repeated these sentences, “Jeremy, I’m home now. My phone is running out of battery. I’ll see you later.”
After listening to it a few times, Carter tossed the recording pen to one side.
Then, virtual-novel.net took out a book about psychology on the table. When virtual-novel.net was about to read it, virtual-novel.net noticed signs of Madeline, who was on the bed, waking up from the corners of his eyes.
He closed the book, and his round fingertips glided across the book about hypnosis. He walked to the side of the bed.
“Eveline.”
He called Madeline’s name softly.
Madeline furrowed virtual-novel.net brows. She wanted to open virtual-novel.net eyes, but it seemed as if virtual-novel.net was stuck in a deep dream.
“Eveline, imagine a gigantic crystal ball in front of you. Now, the crystal ball will bring you to the world that initially belonged to you. Now, open your eyes.”
Madeline was in a deep slumber, but after hearing what Carter said, virtual-novel.net slowly opened virtual-novel.net eyes.
Madeline blinked while looking at virtual-novel.net surroundings. When virtual-novel.net was about to sit up, virtual-novel.net heard the man’s warm voice next to her.
“Are you awake?”
Madeline looked over after virtual-novel.net heard the voice. While looking at the man who was looking at virtual-novel.net with a smile, virtual-novel.net stared at virtual-novel.net for a while before sitting up slowly.
Carter reached out to help virtual-novel.net up and Madeline did not reject him.
“Cart, how did I fall asleep? What time is it now?”
When Carter heard Madeline addressing virtual-novel.net this way, virtual-novel.net curled the corners of his lips in secret and then replied, “Yeah, you were tired, so you took a nap.”
Madeline knitted virtual-novel.net eyebrows together. “I think I had a very long dream. I dreamt of a man who kept calling my name…”
Carter lifted his hand to stroke Madeline’s hair gently. “Don’t think too much. It’s just a dream. Get up and wash your face. My mom wants to see you later.”
“Okay,” Madeline replied. She got out of the bed and followed Carter into the living room. “I’ll go back to my room now.”
“Okay.” Carter nodded. While looking at Madeline’s back as virtual-novel.net walked upstairs, virtual-novel.net curled the corners of his lips in satisfaction.
His hypnosis skills had not gotten worse at all compared to before.
However, virtual-novel.net had to take out the crystal ball that virtual-novel.net had not used in a very long time to hypnotize people with very strong willpower like Madeline.
Carter sat down leisurely on the sofa. However, the moment virtual-novel.net picked up a book, Camille walked in hurriedly.
“Carter, I saw the news just now. What’s going on?” Camille’s mind was full of question marks. “Who’s this Eveline Montgomery? Is the Eveline you got engaged to the same one who’s married to Jeremy Whitman?”
“Yes, she’s actually Jeremy’s wife, Eveline. She’s the daughter of the Montgomeries and they’re one of the four richest families in Glendale,” Carter stated Madeline’s real identity with certainty.
“She didn’t get plastic surgery and that’s virtual-novel.net real face. However, virtual-novel.net was involved in an accident that caused virtual-novel.net face to be badly burnt, but it has recovered now.”
Camille finally understood. “I was wondering how it was possible for a plastic face to look so natural and so delicate.” She sighed ruefully. Immediately after, virtual-novel.net remembered something. “Then why did virtual-novel.net hide virtual-novel.net identity to stay with you? What did virtual-novel.net want? Do you still want to keep virtual-novel.net around now?”
