“In comparison, some people who contributed to the flames and feared that I would not leave him have become even more hateful.”
Karen’s expression collapsed. “Who are you talking about?”
“Must you make oblique accusations? I’m talking about you, my dear mother-in-law,” Niamh said bluntly.
“You… There must be something wrong with this. This marriage certificate must be fake!” Karen was angry. She took out her mobile phone and wanted to call Kendrick when Kendrick returned at this moment.
Karen hurriedly questioned him, “Kendrick, what is going on? Didn’t you go to the Civil Affairs Bureau with Felicity? How did she end up being this woman?”
Kendrick ignored Karen and looked at Niamh who was smiling at him. Her sweet, dimpled smile made him want to look at her more.
“Yes, I got the certificate with her.” He opened his mouth to confirm this fact.
Karen was dumbfounded.
Niamh curled her lips with satisfaction and walked to Kendrick. “Kendrick, can you come with me somewhere?”
Kendrick looked into Niamh’s eyes, feeling that his heart could not help but want to be drawn to her. “Where to?”
“To…” Niamh paused and looked at Karen. “I want to go to our two-person world to celebrate our remarriage,” she smiled brightly and said, holding Kendrick’s hand.
Seeing the pair from their backs, Karen was furious. She did not mention the dinner that she had carefully prepared. How could she still be at peace with Niamh about to enter their doors later?
Kendrick was sitting in Niamh’s car. He did not know where she was going to take him, but he was willing to follow.
Just then, he received a call from Felicity all of a sudden. “Kendrick, where are you? I’m not feeling well now. Can you come and accompany me?”
Listening to the aggrieved voice of the woman on the phone, Kendrick felt he should be distressed, but instead, he felt nothing.
Even though there was always a voice in his mind reminding him that Felicity was his beloved woman in this life.
“Kendrick, are you listening to me, Kendrick?”
Kendrick returned from his daze when he heard Nevaeh’s repeated calls for him. He was about to speak when Niamh took over the phone.
“Felicity, if you still have any dignity left, don’t bother my husband again. Otherwise, I will have you understand the consequences of being a mistress.”
Niamh ended her warning unceremoniously before hanging up the phone. She even blacklisted Felicity’s number.
She stopped the car and handed the phone over with a serious expression.
“Kendrick, you’re my husband now. Don’t interact with other women anymore or I’ll be unhappy.”
“Don’t be unhappy. I can promise you that.” His answer sounded unpleasant, even reluctant, but he agreed very readily.
Niamh was satisfied with this answer. She brought Kendrick to Adam’s clinic. Adam did several checks on Kendrick and did not find any problems with Kendrick’s body. Moreover, Kendrick’s physique was very good compared to ordinary people.
Adam also gave Kendrick a psychological evaluation and they all showed that he had no problems.
With this, Adam could not start treating Kendrick. As such, Niamh had to take him away first.
As they passed a red light on the way back, Niamh could not help but stare at a flower shop outside the car window in a daze. Following that, she heard the sound of the car door opening. When she looked back, she saw Kendrick getting out of the car and leaving.
Niamh thought Kendrick did not want to stay with her and wanted to look for Felicity instead, but then she saw him entering the flower shop. Not long after, Kendrick returned with a bouquet of pink and blue baby’s breath.
“Do you like this flower?” He gave her the baby’s breath.
Niamh’s heart instantly felt sweet and sour.
Even though Kendrick had somehow forgotten her because of another’s tampering, it seemed that he still subconsciously remembered to love her and be nice to her.
On the other end, Nevaeh could not find Kendrick and her number had been blacklisted. She was distressed when she suddenly received a call from Felipe. He was here to confirm whether she had obtained the marriage certificate with Kendrick.
Nevaeh did not dare to say that she had not, so she repeatedly said she had settled it.
Felipe seemed satisfied with this answer, and at the same time, he ordered Nevaeh to get Kendrick to hold a wedding with her as soon as possible.
Nevaeh did not know what Felipe was planning for next, but she promised it all. How could she dare refuse?
After the call was hung up, Nevaeh became angrier and angrier.
She was just one step away from Mrs. Waldburg’s throne but she did not expect that Niamh would take the lead.
She would never give up and compromise like this.
The enmity and jealousy that had accumulated in her heart over the past few years were burning in her heart. In any case, she would destroy Niamh and never let her live happily with Kendrick for the rest of her life.
Nevaeh rolled her eyes before smiling suddenly.
She had thought of a good way to make her the apple of Kendrick’s eye once and for all.
It was dark now, and Niamh had brought Kendrick to have a simple dinner near Glendale University. She then walked around the campus side by side with him.
“Kendrick, did you know that I used to follow you secretly and walk the paths you did?”
“You don’t look like someone who would do such silly things.” Kendrick’s voice sounded cold, but his tone was joking.
At this time, a pair of young lovers ran past them, chasing each other and playing around. The girl had accidentally run into Niamh and Kendrick instinctively reached out to grab Niamh, who had almost fallen, into his arms.
She raised his eyes to look at him as he looked down at her. The moment their eyes faced each other, there seemed to be the same tingling sensation that had surged years ago on the apex of their hearts.
“Kendrick, it doesn’t matter if you’ve forgotten me, but you must believe me. You must remember that your Nia would never lie to you.”
Kendrick looked at Niamh’s eyes as if bewitched and nodded meekly. “I believe you.”
An hour later, Niamh sent Kendrick back to the villa.
She had decided to head back to Montgomery Manor to pack up some things before officially moving back to this house the next day.
As soon as she left the gates of the villa, however, a figure suddenly appeared next to her. The man was holding a drugged wet wipe and had covered Niamh’s mouth.
Niamh also heard a familiar nightmarish voice in her ears. “One Eveline is enough for this world! Go to hell!”
Although Niamh’s consciousness had begun to fade, she was still very tenacious. She broke free from the man’s imprisoning arms and shouted, “Kendrick, save me!”
Just as Kendrick went upstairs and into the bedroom, he vaguely heard Niamh’s voice calling for help.
He felt his heartbeat speeding up all of a sudden as he ran downstairs before he could even think about it.
He ran to the gates and only saw Niamh getting into the car.
“What happened?” Kendrick walked over and asked.
“No, it’s okay,” the woman responded from inside the car, “I thought there was a mouse just now, so I was shocked. Well then, Kendrick, I’m going home first.”
With that, the car drove out from Kendrick’s vision.
Kendrick felt that something was off but he could not tell what was wrong.
When he turned around to leave, he lowered his eyes to see a single button on the floor by the door.
He picked it up and took a closer look. This gold-colored glazed button was one of the buttons on the coat Niamh was wearing today. How did it come off?
Nevaeh was driving Niamh’s car. She raised her stern-looking eyes and glanced into the rear-view mirror.
Niamh, who was unconscious, was lying on the seat in the rear compartment at this moment.
Nevaeh breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the effect of the chloroform was still great.
Although Niamh had struggled, she still could not resist the drug.
Nevaeh did not want any more accidents. She knew bad guys had a tendency of monologuing too much, so she had to do things decisively. Thus, by taking advantage of Kendrick being in a hypnotized state and Felipe not being in Glendale, she needed to make a big effort to deal with Niamh!
On the outskirts during the wintry 12th lunar month, cold wind rustled.
Nevaeh stopped the car. Noticing that Niamh seemed to be awakening, she hurriedly got out of the car and dragged the dazed Niamh.
“Get out!” She pulled at Niamh savagely.
Niamh’s head was heavy while her eyes were blurry and distant.
She wanted to see what exactly this place was, but Nevaeh had suddenly pushed her to the ground.
Something cold and sharp pierced her palm, the tingling sensation sobering Niamh up immediately.
“Niamh, do you remember where this is?” Nevaeh smiled condescendingly. “This is where Brittany died back then. Do you remember what happened here?”
Niamh squinted her eyes and looked around, her eyes falling on the overcast Nevaeh. She smiled suddenly. “So you really aren’t dead, Nevaeh.”
Nevaeh did not think Niamh’s reaction would be so calm and the triumphant smile on her face cracked a little.
