Chapter 1779
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
After Madeline had finished cleaning the house and rested, she called all the friends she knew in F Country, asking them for information about Fabian.
Madeline had thought that this might be difficult because Fabian kept a much lower profile than Yorick and Lana in F Country.
However, when Madeline mentioned Fabianâs name, not only was everyone familiar with the name, nearly all of them spoke with lamentation when talking about Fabian.
âAh, Fabian has been very active in F Country for the past six months. He seems to come from a family with a powerful background.â
âFabian Johnson? I know him. His brother Yorick could be considered a person of some status in F Country. However, Fabianâs not the same as his brother. I like that kid.â
âYou mean Mr. Johnson? Back then, I worked with him on a project. Heâs very decisive and capable in his conduct. He doesnât seem like a twenty-year- old young man at all.â
Madeline held the phone as she heard the people on the other end of the line commenting on Fabian.
Suddenly, she felt as if the Fabian they mentioned was not the man she had known back then.
In the past six months, Fabian seemed to have changed a lot. It could be said that he was now a completely different person.
If he truly had changed, would Lillian be in danger now?
Madeline suddenly was uncertain about Fabian, but in her memory, Fabianâs radiant and friendly smile was still in front of her.
Despite all the information Madeline had gathered on Fabianâs current situation, no one knew where Fabian stayed.
However, Madeline still got a piece of an important clue.
Madeline went to bed early that night. The following morning, she followed the address that was given to her and arrived at a certain office building in the city center.
It was still early, so Madeline sat in the buildingâs lobby and waited.
Around 8:30 am, staff began streaming through the entrance as they went about their work. Madeline kept her gaze in the direction of the entrance the whole time, waiting for the familiar figure to appear.
It was nearly 10 am, but the person she wanted to meet had yet to appear, and Madeline could wait no further.
The thought of Lillianâs illness upset Madelineâs steady heartbeat.
She had heard that Fabian started his new company here. That was why she had to come here and wait for the opportunity to run into him.
Madeline decided to leave, but she was also worried that she might have failed to notice him earlier. It could also be that she missed him because Fabian had gone straight to his office from the basement, so she planned to go upstairs for a look.
However, as she was getting up to walk to the elevator, a familiar figure appeared in her line of sight.
âFabian.â
She shouted at Fabian who came through the entrance.
Upon suddenly hearing this voice here, Fabian, alarmed, turned toward the source of the voice, not expecting that it was truly Madelineâs voice.
When he saw Madeline, he slowly stopped walking.
He did not intend to run away but gave Madeline, who was striding toward him, a level look instead.
âFabian, where is my daughter? Where is she?â Madeline asked directly.
Fabian looked at the impatient look on Madelineâs face and calmly said, âSheâs fine.â
He responded with two simple words.
âFine?â Madeline thought this ridiculous. âFabian, I want to see my daughter.â
âYou wonât be able to see her,â Fabian rejected, and his expression was abnormally cold. âYou should go back now, Mrs. Whitman. Youâre just going to waste your time by staying here. You wonât be able to see your daughter.â
He walked past Madeline when he was finished speaking. However, before even taking two steps, he heard Madelineâs cold voice from behind.
