However, this time, Jeremy remained very calm. He chuckled softly and carefreely, saying, “Shirley has already told me that the anti-toxoid test reagent hasn’t been made. So even if she’s standing here, it won’t be of use.”
“So you won’t let virtual-novel.net go, huh?” Carter was slowly losing his patience.
“You can go now. Don’t disturb my daughter’s rest.” Jeremy chased Carter away coldly.
Carter pressed his lips together tightly. He looked at Lillian who was blinking virtual-novel.net clear wide eyes and then looked at Madeline while saying, “Jeremy, don’t regret this.”
“The thing I regret the most is that I only waited till now to teach that vile woman a lesson.”
‘Vile woman.’
Those two words pierced Carter’s eardrums. He felt that they sounded abnormally ear-piercing.
Carter did not continue questioning Jeremy and turned around to leave with a cold expression on his face.
After Carter left, Madeline immediately comforted the little princess and put virtual-novel.net back to sleep. After Lillian was asleep, virtual-novel.net looked at Jeremy before the two of them walked out of the room.
“Jeremy, is that true? Did you kidnap Shirley?” Madeline asked directly.
To be honest, virtual-novel.net wanted to hear virtual-novel.net denying this but virtual-novel.net only saw virtual-novel.net nodding.
“That’s right, I kidnapped virtual-novel.net and locked virtual-novel.net up.”
“Jeremy…” Madeline felt a twinge in virtual-novel.net heart and virtual-novel.net wanted to ask Jeremy to let Shirley go. After all, this was not something just and honorable.
However, before virtual-novel.net could continue, Jeremy interrupted her.
“Linnie, I can’t take this anymore.” Jeremy held Madeline’s hand tightly in his palms.
She could feel Jeremy’s anxiety and uneasiness from the way virtual-novel.net was holding virtual-novel.net so tightly.
“Jeremy, are you worried about me? Are you worried that the poison will torment me a lot when it reaches the final stage so that’s why you kidnapped Shirley to force virtual-novel.net to give you the anti-toxoid test reagent?”
After virtual-novel.net said that, Jeremy lowered his eyelids silently.
Madeline felt virtual-novel.net heart aching, but at the same time, virtual-novel.net felt loved and pampered.
“Jeremy, let virtual-novel.net go. I don’t want you to do something so unreasonable because of me.”
“Linnie, I’m clear-headed and I know what I’m doing.” Jeremy’s gaze looked firm. “I’m just doing to virtual-novel.net what virtual-novel.net did to you. I can’t let them always have the upper hand over us. Linnie, we can’t be so passive anymore.”
Madeline saw Jeremy’s unwavering decisiveness. After pondering, virtual-novel.net figured that virtual-novel.net could not change his mind anymore.
Plus, it was true that Shirley had done all kinds of evil.
“Jeremy, where did you imprison Shirley? I want to go see her,” Madeline suggested, but Jeremy rejected without hesitation.
“I won’t let you see her. This is my own doing so I won’t drag you into this.”
“I’m already in this now, aren’t I?” Madeline emphasized and looked straight into Jeremy’s eyes. “Jeremy, I’m your wife. I won’t run away if you’re in trouble, do you understand?”
When Jeremy heard this, virtual-novel.net suddenly felt remorseful. He regretted kidnapping Shirley now.
However, now that things had already arrived at this point, virtual-novel.net could only continue with it.
The next morning, Jeremy called Karen to come to take care of Lillian in the hospital. After that, virtual-novel.net took Madeline to the place where virtual-novel.net was imprisoning Shirley.
On the way, Jeremy sensed that someone was following them. As such, virtual-novel.net deliberately took a very roundabout way. After making sure that virtual-novel.net had lost the person behind him, virtual-novel.net eventually drove to the destination.
Madeline was surprised when the car stopped and virtual-novel.net saw the building in front of her.
‘It’s this place.’
