Chapter 785
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Madeline rushed to the desk and picked up the computer.
Felipe looked at Madelineâs agitated reaction and chuckled indifferently.
âIâve said it before. I wonât do anything that will hurt you. Do you see it now?â
Madeline looked at the lively and cheerful little figure shown in the surveillance footage as tears welled in her eyes. Her emotions at this moment were incomparable.
âFelipe Whitman, where is this?!â She pressed hard.
Felipe, however, had no intention to tell her. He walked to her and raised his hand. As soon as his slender fingers touched Madelineâs cheek, she dodged away.
He frowned unhappily, an obscure and gloomy smile appearing on his face. âDo you still remember what you promised me back then? You said youâd bring Lilian and follow me back to F Country to live a peaceful life after your revenge. Iâve been waiting for the day to come, but you broke your promise.â
Madeline looked straight into Felipeâs black orbs frankly. âYou know best in your heart why things have developed like this.â
âHeh.â Felipe chuckled. âIâve done so much for you.â
âYou did it for yourself so that you wouldnât lose to Jeremy.â Madeline looked at the man whose expression gradually became gloomy out of disappointment. âI sincerely wanted to spend the rest of my life with you at first and thatâs why I agreed to let Lilian call you her dad, but you really surprised and disappointed me.â
Felipeâs expression grew colder after listening to Madelineâs words. Even his gaze was glazed over with a dim color.
âFelipe, are you going to tell me where this is?â Madeline questioned while pointing at the real-time surveillance video on the computer screen.
Felipe lifted his icy eyes lightly. âI can tell you, but first, you must follow me back to F Country and be my woman. You can never meet Jeremy again.â
Madeline definitely could not agree to such a request. âFelipe, if you insist on wanting to be with me because of what happened when you were young, then Iâm telling you, I really have not seen you before. I only spent my time with Jeremy in April Hill when I was ten years old.â
Felipe furrowed his eyebrows tightly. âItâs you. Iâll never forget that the little girl had two cute dimples when she smiled.â
âThere are so many girls in the world who have dimples when they smile. Cathy also had dimples when she smiled, so what does this indicate?â
The sudden mention of Cathy stunned Felipe.
The image of her resolutely leaping into the river and the words of her goodbye hovered in his mind.
Felipeâs heart seemed to be cut into pieces all of a sudden and the bloody pain spread all over his body in an instant.
He thought this kind of pain was caused by Madeline not loving him and Madeline insisting on being together with Jeremy instead of following him.
âFelipe Whitman, tell me, where exactly is the place displayed on the computer?â Madeline was anxious.
Felipe stared at Madelineâs beautiful eyes quietly, the possessiveness in his black orbs remaining undiminished. âEveline, Iâll only give you three days. In these three days, you must have Jeremy give up on the thought of being together with you again. Iâll be waiting for you at Glendale Airport in three days. If you donât show up, then you wonât get to see the person you want to see most right now for the rest of your life.â
âAre you threatening me?â Madeline asked calmly, her gaze sharp.
Felipe smirked. âYes, Iâm threatening you. If I canât get you in the end, then I will leave a rift that can never be erased between you and Jeremy. Every time youâre with him, youâll think of Lilian who died because of your choice and you two will never be happy.â
Slap!
Madeline slapped Felipe on his face with reddened eyes. âDespicable.â
Felipe curled his lips indifferently, his smile looking both good and evil. âYou already think of me as a two-faced, despicable man. In that case, I will show you just how despicable I can be.â
He strode toward Madeline as he said this and stroked her eyebrows despite her resistance. âEveline, I will prove to you that I love you more than Jeremy and am more suitable for you.â
His tone was gentle, but Madeline found that his gaze was dark. It even carried obsessive paranoia.
âIâll see you at Glendale Airport three days later, okay?â
Felipe turned around and left as soon as he finished speaking.
When Madeline turned her head back to look at the computer screen, the image was already gone.
