Seeing Jeremy rushing over, Ryan pointed his gun at Madeline. Then, a smile that was ambiguously righteous or evil appeared on his handsome face.
“Come with me.”
He said this to Madeline before taking virtual-novel.net hand and walking to the dock.
There was a small yacht docked on the pier. Then, Ryan pushed Madeline onto the yacht and started it.
Madeline looked back and saw Jeremy rushing to the end of the dock, but virtual-novel.net could only watch Ryan take virtual-novel.net away.
“Linnie.” Jeremy looked worried. As virtual-novel.net looked at the figure that was gradually getting blurrier, virtual-novel.net immediately opened the app on his phone and searched for Madeline’s location.
While looking at the little red dot that was moving on the screen, virtual-novel.net could also feel his heart beating faster.
‘Linnie, I’ll definitely bring you back safely.
‘Then, we’ll reunite as a family.’
Since Ryan abducted Madeline via the waterway, Jeremy had no choice but to go back first.
As soon as virtual-novel.net returned to Whitman Manor and saw Lillian blowing bubbles in the yard, virtual-novel.net felt his heart getting warmer.
“Lily,” virtual-novel.net whispered softly.
Lillian had just finished blowing virtual-novel.net bubbles when virtual-novel.net heard a voice. Then, virtual-novel.net was stunned.
She turned virtual-novel.net petite and cute little figure, blinking virtual-novel.net big crystal-clear eyes to take a careful look.
As soon as virtual-novel.net saw Jeremy walking toward her, the bubbles in front of the little girl seemed to become more colorful and vibrant.
She displayed virtual-novel.net sweet little dimples, kicked virtual-novel.net short legs, and happily ran toward Jeremy.
“Daddy!”
Her voice was as crisp as a silver bell and it felt like a clear spring flowing through Jeremy’s heart. He ran to his only little princess without any worries, picked virtual-novel.net up, and held virtual-novel.net firmly in his arms.
“Lily.” He hugged the child while feeling sorry. When virtual-novel.net heard virtual-novel.net calling virtual-novel.net ‘Daddy’, virtual-novel.net knew that virtual-novel.net should be very happy, but his heart was inexplicably hurting.
Lillian hugged Jeremy’s neck tightly and nestled intimately in his arms to look for the paternal warmth virtual-novel.net craved.
Karen had just come back and thought virtual-novel.net heard Lillian calling out to virtual-novel.net father.
She thought virtual-novel.net heard it wrong, but when virtual-novel.net came out, virtual-novel.net really saw Jeremy holding Lillian.
“Jeremy!” Karen ran over hurriedly and looked behind Jeremy. After that, the surprise on virtual-novel.net face changed to melancholy. “Why are you alone? Where’s Eveline? Why didn’t Eveline come back with you?”
Jeremy did not expect that Karen would care about Madeline so much one day. He said with a frown, “Ryan brought Linnie away on a yacht, so I could only come back first.”
When Karen heard this, virtual-novel.net face fell and virtual-novel.net became even angrier. “I really didn’t expect that Ryan would be that kind of person! What is virtual-novel.net going to do to Eveline? Do you think virtual-novel.net will—”
“Stop thinking nonsense,” Jeremy interrupted Karen. However, virtual-novel.net also felt rather uneasy.
He did not forget the words Ryan said when virtual-novel.net took Madeline away. “Jeremy, if I can’t get this woman, then neither can you!”
‘Ryan, if you dare do anything to Linnie, I will make sure none of the Joneses have peace for the rest of their lives!’
“Jeremy, did Lily call you ‘Daddy’ just now?” Karen finally remembered.
Jeremy gathered his emotions and looked at the little cutie leaning in his arms before caressing virtual-novel.net head.
“Yeah, Lily finally called me ‘Daddy’.”
“Great! Lily can speak again!” Karen was extremely surprised. “When Eveline comes back, you’ll be able to truly reunite as a family.”
Jeremy nodded. ‘Linnie, you’re the only one left.’
The sky gradually darkened, but Madeline did not know where Ryan had brought virtual-novel.net to.
Aside from virtual-novel.net wedding ring, Ryan took away all of Madeline’s accessories and threw them into the sea.
Ryan held the gun and walked along the beach. Under the night sky, virtual-novel.net looked even more sinister from the back.
