Chapter 1245

Madeline was stunned after hearing what Jeremy said.

While looking into his eyes that were as deep as night and as cold as water, for a while, she could not tell whether he was speaking the truth or deliberately infuriating her so that she would leave.

“Go now,” Jeremy looked at Madeline who was stuck in a daze and emphasized again.

“Jeremy?”

“Ryan made a lot of heinous mistakes, but he was right about one thing.”

Jeremy took a deep breath and endured the burning pain in his arm. Then, he laughed at himself and said, “The biggest mistake I’ve ever made is caring too much about you. Eveline, I love you, but if the entire Whitman family were to collapse because of my love for you, then it would be too great a price to pay.”

Madeline could not believe what she was hearing at this moment. She even felt her consciousness starting to drift.

“Eveline, I’m feeling tired as well.” He said such a weary sentence all of a sudden. “I can no longer lose myself and the entire Whitman family because of you.”

After he said that, Madeline did not know whether it was the rain or her own tears that blurred her vision.

She looked at the haggard face in front of her with confusion. “Jeremy.”

“You should go. You don’t need to risk your life for me anymore.” Jeremy looked away and stopped looking at Madeline.

Madeline bit her lip tightly as her heart ached fiercely.

She could not endure this any longer. She could not bear the pain of having to be driven away by him, so she finally turned and left.

His attitude was still indifferent, and as soon as Madeline’s car drove away, the police car and ambulance arrived at the same time.

The injured police officer was immediately carried on a stretcher and sent to the hospital.

The police arrived in a hurry and saw Ryan pointing the gun at Jeremy, whose hands were full of blood.

“Mr. Jones, what’s going on?” the police officer in the lead asked.

Ryan glanced at Jeremy who had a terrible expression on his face as the man was being tortured by the poison. Then, he turned his head and said seriously to the police, “When he escaped from prison, Jeremy Whitman stole my gun and killed a plainclothes police officer who was chasing him. As an agent from Interpol, I’m really sorry that I wasn’t able to stop him in time.”

Ryan looked guilty and regretful. “How is that police officer?”

“He’s on the way to the hospital. I hope he’ll be okay.” The police immediately took out a pair of handcuffs and clasped them over Jeremy’s wrists again. “Jeremy Whitman, you’re suspected of murder and now you’ve escaped from prison. If anything happens to our colleague, you can just wait for the death penalty! Take him away now!”

Jeremy did not resist. Instead, he looked at Ryan with hatred and endured the pain while he was taken to the police car.

Ryan was very satisfied as he watched this scene.

Originally, he wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of Jeremy by accusing him of escaping from prison, but he did not expect Madeline to appear.

This ending might not be too bad.

Jeremy would inevitably be sentenced to death for escaping prison and killing a police officer.

Ryan followed them to the police station and made a statement.

As soon as he was done, he heard a police officer sighing in the lobby.

“Zeke is dead.”

“I really couldn’t tell that Jeremy Whitman is such a heinous person.”

“The young master of the number one wealthy family in Glendale my *ss! He’s an animal!”

A group of police officers gathered around and scolded Jeremy angrily.

Ryan curled his lips quietly, satisfied with the news.

The police officer was really really dead.

How could one still be alive if you were shot in the heart?

Ryan left the police station with a smile. When he returned to his place, the rain had stopped.

He originally thought that Madeline would go back to Whitman Manor after leaving, but he did not expect that she would come back here.
