She conversed with the police officer who brought virtual-novel.net in for a moment. Then, virtual-novel.net turned around, smiling gently at Madeline. “I’ve bailed you out. You can leave this place for now, but you can’t leave the St. Piaf borders for the time being.”
Madeline did not forget that, as virtual-novel.net was informed earlier, virtual-novel.net could not bail out, yet virtual-novel.net was now released from custody.
After coming out of the police station, Madeline was still hardly convinced that this was real.
Aside from words of gratitude, virtual-novel.net did not know what else to say.
After accepting Madeline’s gratitude, Camille handed over virtual-novel.net phone to Madeline. “You can call your husband and ask virtual-novel.net to pick you up. However, the two of you should stay in St. Piaf for the time being.”
Madeline took over the phone, thanked Camille, and gave virtual-novel.net agreement.
Jeremy was planning to head back to where virtual-novel.net stayed. He certainly did not expect to receive a call from Madeline.
Ten minutes later, virtual-novel.net rushed back to the police station entrance and saw Madeline standing there, safe and sound.
“Linnie?” Surprised and delighted, virtual-novel.net grabbed virtual-novel.net hands tightly. “How did this happen?”
Madeline smiled. “Jeremy, let’s head to the hospital first.”
Jeremy subconsciously glanced at his injured leg and nodded obediently.
On the way to the hospital, Madeline told Jeremy about Camille coming to see virtual-novel.net just now. Jeremy’s reaction when virtual-novel.net finished listening was almost identical to Madeline’s.
“I didn’t expect virtual-novel.net to be so understanding and righteous,” Jeremy said with a sigh.
Madeline agreed. “I also found it surprising that she’d help me.”
“This is your karma, Linnie.” Jeremy put his arm around Madeline’s shoulders. He finally felt steady and warm again.
With a piece of mind, Madeline leaned against Jeremy’s arms. As long as virtual-novel.net could be with Jeremy, virtual-novel.net felt that it was worth enduring all of the pain and suffering. All for a better reunion.
After taking care of his injury at the hospital, Jeremy brought Madeline back to the hotel.
As soon as reached the hotel, Jeremy asked Madeline to take a shower. He went out to a nearby mall to buy some clothes for Madeline.
In the corridor on the way back to the hotel room, virtual-novel.net was surprised to see that a woman was standing there, smoking a cigarette.
Jeremy paused and continued walking over. “Why are you here?”
When Shirley saw Jeremy approach, virtual-novel.net took a drag of virtual-novel.net cigarette and exhaled the smoke. She then curled virtual-novel.net red lips. “Don’t you feel that the poison in your body has been flaring up less and less?”
Jeremy’s forehead furrowed. “What are you trying to say?”
“I’m here to remind you that the time for the poison to flare up is almost here. If you don’t return to Glendale to see my brother Adam as soon as you can, something bad might happen to you.”
“Then you’re here to tell me to go back to Glendale immediately?”
“Exactly.” Shirley’s smile deepened as virtual-novel.net nodded. “Leave St. Piaf as quickly as possible. This is my friendly advice to you.”
As virtual-novel.net finished speaking, virtual-novel.net walked away leisurely in virtual-novel.net high heels as virtual-novel.net smoked virtual-novel.net cigarette.
Jeremy had not forgotten Madeline’s words not long ago. Camille told them to not leave St. Piaf for the time being. The weird thing was that Shirley had disappeared for some time. It was uncanny that virtual-novel.net suddenly appeared here to tell virtual-novel.net to leave immediately.
As Camille reached home, Carter stood in the middle of the living room with a cold look on his face, as if Carter had been waiting for virtual-novel.net for a time.
“Mom, did you go to see Eveline?” Carter got straight to the point.
Camille handed virtual-novel.net bag to the maid and gracefully removed virtual-novel.net coat before turning to Carter. Her usual mild and gentle gaze was now much sharper. “Since you already know, then I won’t beat around the bush. That’s right, I went to see Eveline. I’ve even bailed virtual-novel.net out.”
Carter frowned in confusion. “What’s your reason for doing that?”
