Chapter 1260
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Madeline grabbed the set of clean clothes on the sofa before quickly turning around and running upstairs. She found a room with no one inside and changed her top in a hurry. After that, she locked the door and observed the surroundings.
She was not familiar with this place at all, and she did not know if Jeremy could find it.
The longer she stayed here, the bigger the crisis she would be in.
The current Ryan was not the elegant, profound, modest, and polite gentleman from the beginning.
He was now a demon. He was a violent, cold-blooded, and cruel demon.
â¦
It was already eight oâclock in the evening.
The police and Interpol were in Whitman Manor discussing plans to rescue Madeline.
Lillian was still snuggling in Jeremyâs arms at this moment. It was probably because she had never received genuine and true love from her father.
She could speak now, but the only word she could say and know how to say was âDaddyâ.
âI still havenât found the whereabouts of Ryan Jones and Mrs. Whitman,â the Interpol agent said in distress, âRyanâs mobile phone is turned off, so itâs impossible to detect his location.â
Jeremy opened a certain GPS software and tried to track Madelineâs whereabouts again, but still, he found nothing.
âLinnie, itâs impossible that youâd throw away the bracelet that Jack made for you. Did Ryan discover the GPS on the bracelet and threw it away?
âLinnie, please donât let anything happen to you.â
âDaddy,â Lillian called out to Jeremy childishly. She was staring straight at him with her clear and large eyes without blinking.
Jeremyâs eyes softened instantly. âLily, do you miss Mommy?â
Lillian nodded seriously.
Jeremy coaxed gently. âDaddy will bring her home in a while, so donât worry, Lily.â
âDaddy.â Jackson also walked over. âI know where Mommy is currently.â
Jeremy, including everyone else in the whole room, looked at Jackson upon hearing this.
His handsome little face exuded a sort of confidence and sharpness that children his age would not haveâ¦
Madeline stayed in the unfamiliar room for more than ten minutes. She tried to climb down the window, but after some observation, she noticed that there was nowhere for her to put her feet outside the window. If she jumped directly, it would be too risky.
She did not want to reunite Jeremy again with scars covering her entire body.
She wanted to return to the man safe and sound.
Madeline lowered her head and fiddled with the wedding ring on her ring finger. âJeremy, I know youâll come looking for me using your all, and Iâll wait for you,â she murmured in a low voice. The moment she finished murmuring, the door was opened all of a sudden.
She had already locked the door, but they could still open it so easily.
Madeline saw two strange men coming in and walking straight to her side with Adam following closely.
He held a syringe in his hand.
Ryan was the last one to enter the room and he walked in while looking leisurely. Then, when he saw Madeline full of vigilance, he displayed a wicked grin.
âDo it.â He issued an order.
The two men beside Madeline suddenly grabbed Madelineâs slender arms.
âWhat are you doing? Ryan, what do you want to do to me?!â Madeline looked at Adam who was holding the syringe as he approached her. âWhat is this? Ryan, are you trying to inject me with the slow-acting poison to control me too?â
âNo. I told you I wonât hurt you.â Ryan denied, but his smile became more treacherous.
âRyan! Tell Adam to stop!â Madeline resisted with all her might as she watched Adam walking up to her and wiping the veins on her arm with a cotton swab. âAdam, stop! Stop!â
