Madeline turned around as virtual-novel.net said, “Also, I suggest that you take Jackson to the doctor. I’ll be leaving now.”
“He’s not my only son.”
?
Jeremy’s strange explanation sounded from behind her. He had also said this in the afternoon.
Madeline stopped walking, and virtual-novel.net could feel Jeremy approaching virtual-novel.net from behind.
“I have another daughter.”
“…”
Madeline felt virtual-novel.net heart skip a beat as a flash of loss could be seen in virtual-novel.net eyes.
Did virtual-novel.net become suspicious after what virtual-novel.net said in the afternoon? Perhaps virtual-novel.net found out about something during this short period of time?
However, when Madeline’s mind started to wander, virtual-novel.net heard Jeremy’s voice in virtual-novel.net ears. “It was with my ex-wife.”
“…”
She widened virtual-novel.net eyes slightly in shock, feeling a bone-piercing pain in virtual-novel.net heart.
“Really?” virtual-novel.net asked. She smiled as virtual-novel.net turned around to look into the man’s eyes. “Where’s the child now?”
Jeremy stared deep into Madeline’s eyes. There was an unpredictable smile on his lips. “She’s dead.”
“…”
“She was killed by virtual-novel.net cold-blooded father—me.”
“…”
Madeline clenched virtual-novel.net fists uncontrollably. However, virtual-novel.net still smiled slightly. “Mr. Whitman, you’re such a jokester. How could a father hurt his own flesh and blood?” virtual-novel.net said as virtual-novel.net looked at virtual-novel.net watch. “I should really get going. Felipe will worry about me.”
After virtual-novel.net said that, virtual-novel.net turned around to leave.
The moment virtual-novel.net turned around, the smile on virtual-novel.net face disappeared as the endless darkness and pain began to drown virtual-novel.net heart.
Madeline bit virtual-novel.net lip and forced herself not to cry.
However, when virtual-novel.net thought about the child who was killed by Jeremy, tears still escaped virtual-novel.net eyes.
Jeremy stood on the second floor as virtual-novel.net watched Madeline leaving in a haste He took out his phone and called Ken. “Look into Vera Quinn’s information again. I want the most detailed background check on her. Find out what Felipe has been doing and where virtual-novel.net has been in the past three years. Update me the moment you find out something.”
On the other side, Ken did exactly as virtual-novel.net was ordered.
After Jeremy hung up, his heart started racing for no reason.
He remembered his conversation with Madeline that afternoon and recalled Lillian’s naive, adorable face. Then, virtual-novel.net remembered how virtual-novel.net had dominated virtual-novel.net in a fit of rage after seeing Daniel kissing virtual-novel.net forehead three years ago.
After some calculations, if Madeline was not dead and if virtual-novel.net got pregnant after that night, the child would be two years old as well.
He had deliberately said those things to Madeline just now. He noticed a strange expression flashing across virtual-novel.net eyes after virtual-novel.net said that virtual-novel.net had killed his child with his own hands.
Madeline went back to the apartment and saw Felipe tucking Lillian into bed.
“Are you okay?” Felipe asked after virtual-novel.net noticed Madeline’s worried expression.
Madeline told Felipe everything and also voiced out the concerns in virtual-novel.net heart. “Felipe, I think he’s suspecting me again.”
“Don’t worry.” Felipe smiled softly, looking calm. “I won’t let virtual-novel.net suspect you again.”
“Do you have a plan?”
“Yeah, I have a plan to make virtual-novel.net stop suspecting that you’re Maddie.” Felipe smiled lightly. He was like the night sky outside the window, quiet and gentle.
“I wanted to let you relax today. In the end, you’ve become so restless and upset.” He caressed virtual-novel.net cheek sadly. “Go take a shower and rest.”
When his fingertips touched her, Madeline trembled slightly. Then, virtual-novel.net nodded. “Goodnight.”
“Goodnight.” Felipe watched as virtual-novel.net went back to virtual-novel.net room. His warm eyes became dimmer like the dark sky outside. There was another layer of unpredictable mysteriousness to his gaze…
Jeremy tossed and turned in bed the entire night. When virtual-novel.net was about to fall asleep, virtual-novel.net received a call from Ken.
He regained consciousness almost immediately and looked at the information Ken sent him.
“Mr. Whitman, I’ve sent all of the information to you. I didn’t find much to be suspicious about after glancing through it, but there’s one thing that’s pretty suspicious.”
Jeremy stopped flipping through the information. “What is it?”
