Madeline was feeling perturbed and kept questioning, but Fabian claimed that speaking through the phone was rather inconvenient. Hence, virtual-novel.net invited Madeline out to a place to meet up.
In the meantime, Madeline made virtual-novel.net leave as virtual-novel.net did not want to disturb Ava and Daniel’s quality time together.
However, as soon as Madeline left, Ava felt uncomfortable and virtual-novel.net heartbeat went erratic. Her face was unusually warm as well.
However, Daniel held onto Ava’s hand naturally and walked along the streets with virtual-novel.net as if it was nothing to him.
Ava felt as though virtual-novel.net was in a wonderful dream, but this was only limited to being a spectacular dream and nothing else beyond it.
Madeline drove virtual-novel.net car to where virtual-novel.net was supposed to meet up with Fabian. As soon as virtual-novel.net got out of virtual-novel.net car, Fabian immediately strolled to virtual-novel.net and asked with a stern expression, “Hey, do you know where Jeremy is right now?”
“You asked me to come all the way here just to know where Jeremy is?” Madeline was puzzled. “Why are you looking for him? Does it have something to do with Lana?”
Fabian frowned. “Lana has been arrested by the men from IBCI. My brother is still stuck in there, unable to free himself. Before that, Lana said virtual-novel.net was going with Jeremy to discuss a business issue. It was then virtual-novel.net got arrested. So, only Jeremy knows what went on at that moment.”
“IBCI?” Madeline seemed to be familiar with the international crime investigation department, but as for the incident of Lana being arrested, virtual-novel.net was not feeling the slightest pity for her.
‘That lady has done so many evil things. All the events that are happening now are because of virtual-novel.net own doings. There’s no one to blame.
‘However, for Jeremy…’
She thought back about this period of time when Jeremy spent so much time with Lana and even aided virtual-novel.net in committing crimes.
‘Is that the reason he’s being pursued by the IBCI?’
Madeline shook virtual-novel.net head. “I don’t know where virtual-novel.net is. I’ve cut ties with him.”
Fabian let out a depressed sighed after getting his reply. “It’s a punishment from the gods.”
Madeline’s eyes went icy after hearing his comment. “Are you empathizing with your brother and sister? In my opinion, even if Lana’s dead, she’s not worth the pity. As for Yorick, virtual-novel.net should bear the responsibility for what virtual-novel.net has done so far. In the end, they all deserve it for what they’ve done.”
Fabian totally understood Madeline’s current feelings.
“I’m very sorry.” He offered his most sincere apology, especially when virtual-novel.net thought about Lillian who up to this day could not speak a single word. It just made virtual-novel.net feel even more hurt.
Madeline composed herself and looked at Fabian. “You did nothing wrong to me. You don’t have to apologize. The person I hate is Lana.”
She finished virtual-novel.net statement and left the scene without turning around.
On virtual-novel.net way back to Whitman Manor, Madeline kept thinking about Fabian’s comments.
‘Jeremy and Lana joined forces and did illegal tradings. Now Lana has been arrested, but Jeremy has gone missing.’
When the traffic light turned red, Madeline took out virtual-novel.net phone and clicked on Jeremy’s contact number but did not hit the call button.
“Eveline Montgomery, I hope this will be the last time. I don’t wish to see you ever again.”
His words that were full of loathing back from that day kept resonating in virtual-novel.net ears.
Seeing that the traffic light had turned green, Madeline placed virtual-novel.net phone back down and pressed on the accelerator.
She just got back to Whitman Manor when virtual-novel.net received a call from Ryan. He said that virtual-novel.net would be busy with business for these two days and would not have time to head back home. Hence, virtual-novel.net asked for Madeline to stay at Whitman Manor for two days.
Madeline was unsure about Ryan’s occupation. However, because of virtual-novel.net trust in him, Madeline did not question virtual-novel.net further.
After entering the house, virtual-novel.net spotted virtual-novel.net two children sitting on the sofa without speaking a word. The sight made virtual-novel.net feel rather insecure.
‘Lillian’s already not talking, but now Jackson isn’t talking either. What the hell is happening right now?’
“I’m back, Jack. What’s wrong with you? Why aren’t you greeting me?” Madeline expressed virtual-novel.net concern.
Jackson raised his big teary eyes and mumbled, “Mommy, Daddy doesn’t want us anymore.”
Madeline was slightly dumbfounded, not knowing the reason behind the sudden comment given by virtual-novel.net son.
At that moment, Karen came to the scene while carrying Pudding in virtual-novel.net hands. “Earlier in the afternoon, Jeremy stopped by.”
