Jeremy heard some noises coming from the forest. Then, virtual-novel.net saw Meredith’s figure as it flashed past.
He looked around but did not see Madeline anywhere. Suddenly, his heart started beating erratically.
He tried to call Madeline’s number, but there was no signal on his phone.
Looking at the misty forest in front of him, Jeremy started feeling more and more uneasy.
Meredith wanted to kill Jackson, then shift the blame to Vera. However, virtual-novel.net changed virtual-novel.net mind at the last minute and decided to kill both of them.
She might as well, right?
Meredith smirked when virtual-novel.net recalled virtual-novel.net plan.
She knew Jeremy would look for Madeline after virtual-novel.net got here.
Jeremy indeed went looking for Vera first. Then, using this opportunity, Meredith fed Jackson some water that was mixed with crushed sleeping pills. After that, virtual-novel.net asked a man who was pretending to be a parent to suffocate Jackson before abandoning his body.
No one would know about virtual-novel.net evil plan.
This was the outdoors where there were no cameras. Plus, there were so many children and parents here. Who would notice the man bringing Jackson away?
At this moment, virtual-novel.net was sure that Jackson was already dead.
However, virtual-novel.net was not entirely sure if Vera was dead after virtual-novel.net fell from the incline.
Even if virtual-novel.net was not dead, virtual-novel.net would not be able to get up. There was no signal in the forest. As long as no one found her, virtual-novel.net would die from virtual-novel.net wounds or even hunger.
Meredith was elated. She would be able to sleep at night now that virtual-novel.net had gotten rid of the obstacles in virtual-novel.net life.
When virtual-novel.net was feeling pleased with herself, Jeremy’s tall figure appeared in front of her.
“What are you doing in the forest?”
Jeremy’s icy voice poured down from virtual-novel.net head to virtual-novel.net toes.
Meredith was stumped for words. She was also feeling frenetic.
‘Did Jeremy see me with Vera just now?’
Meredith rolled virtual-novel.net eyes before virtual-novel.net started sobbing. “Jeremy, boo-hoo… Vera is so merciless. Not only did virtual-novel.net frame me in order to get you, virtual-novel.net even went after our child. She’s so inhumane!”
She cried as virtual-novel.net was about to go into Jeremy’s arms.
Instead, Jeremy grabbed virtual-novel.net shoulders. “What did you say? Speak clearly!”
He lifted his sharp gaze that felt like arrows.
Meredith hid virtual-novel.net franticness and started making up a story. “Jeremy, it’s all Vera’s fault! No wonder virtual-novel.net asked you to join this activity. It’s because virtual-novel.net planned to use this opportunity to ask someone to kidnap Jack. Vera must’ve already harmed Jackson by now!”
Meredith sobbed and continued, “I noticed there was something amiss with Vera, so I followed her. I saw virtual-novel.net talking to a man in the forest. She even gave the man a large sum of money. Then, I went over to question her. I didn’t expect virtual-novel.net to admit it so fast. She even wanted to shut me up forever by pushing me down that steep incline. In the end… In the end…”
Meredith pretended to look terrified as tears rolled down virtual-novel.net cheeks uncontrollably.
Jeremy could feel his temples throbbing. He even felt that it was getting hard to breathe.
“What happened in the end? Tell me!” He roared. His eyebrows were already twisted into a knot.
Meredith shook and said, “In the end, virtual-novel.net accidentally fell down the incline!”
‘What did you say? She fell?” Jeremy’s hands that were on Meredith’s shoulders fell lifelessly. There was a storm in his charming eyes.
He turned around and went straight into the autumn rain that was getting heavier and heavier.
His heart was empty all of a sudden. The feeling of when virtual-novel.net lost Madeline three years ago appeared in the bottom of his heart again. It felt as if his heart had plunged into a bottomless abyss.
Meredith clenched virtual-novel.net fists as virtual-novel.net watched Jeremy leave.
She did not expect Jeremy to care about Vera until this extent. He even ignored the safety of his own son so that virtual-novel.net could go inside the forest to look for Vera.
“Hmph, it’s good that she’s dead.” Meredith gritted virtual-novel.net teeth. Then, a sinister smile appeared on virtual-novel.net face.
