Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 1277

Chapter 1277

Madeline saw Ryan’s eyes gleaming cunningly.

She did not wish to look at him any longer and coldly turned away.

“You don’t have to be afraid of me. I won’t harm you, but I’ll never let you return to Jeremy,” Ryan said scornfully with his eyes looking as sharp as a hawk’s.

“I’m guessing that right now, you must long to spend more time with your parents. I have things to attend to, so you’ll stay here.” Ryan twirled Madeline’s long hair with his fingers as he leaned nearer to her flirtatiously.

Madeline turned away from him. She wanted to take a step back, but Ryan grabbed her waist. “The things you’re not supposed to say, you’d better don’t tell your parents. You don’t wish to lose your family for good, right?”

His comment was obviously trying to threaten her.

Madeline tightened her lips. She did not speak a word and neither did she look at Ryan.

“I hate it when people give me an awful expression, especially a lady, but you’re different. The anger you have just attracts me.” Ryan’s gentle gaze was fixed on Madeline’s elegant face. Then, he let go of her.

“I’ll come back to pick you up once I’ve settled my issues,” Ryan said, then spun around and headed to the door.

Madeline stood there without moving and saw Ryan leaving as he pleased. The sight made her clench her fists hard.

‘Ryan, I don’t believe that you, a man who has been charged with murder, will be able to walk around so freely.’

“Eveline.” She heard Sean’s voice coming from the window.

Madeline came back to her senses and loosened her grip before returning to the house with a smile.

Sean looked around at the doorway. “Has Mr. Jones left?”

“Yup.” Madeline nodded. “Dad, how long have you and Mom been staying here?”
