Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 1852

Shirley’s heartbeat trembled as she grasped the anti-toxoid test reagent in her hand.

She was not aware that Madeline and Jeremy were not in Glendale. All she wanted to do now was deliver the anti-toxoid test reagent that could clear the poison in Madeline’s body.

She knew, however, that Madeline and Jeremy would have difficulty trusting her.

They trusted Adam and Cathy, but now… ‘Addy, I was wrong.

‘I already knew earlier that I was wrong.

‘But I lacked the courage to admit my mistake.

‘And you did not even give me a chance to apologize. ‘Addy.

‘Cathy.

‘I know that your greatest hope was for me to hand over the anti-toxoid test reagent to Eveline.

‘Don’t worry. I won’t let you down again.’

Shirley held the anti-toxoid test reagent tightly and hid it in her sleeve. The rain continued to pour as she remained motionless.

Jeremy had just gotten off the plane with Madeline. They were getting into the car, ready to head home, when Jeremy pulled out his mobile phone to find several missed calls, all from Karen.

Karen would rarely make that many calls to him on a normal day. The number of missed calls now made Jeremy feel that something was wrong.

He immediately called Karen back, who picked up the phone quickly.

Knowing that Jeremy had just gotten off the plane, Karen immediately asked, “Have you found Lily? Have you brought her back with you?”

Recalling what Fabian had said, Jeremy pondered for a while before he replied, “Lily didn’t return with us. But don’t worry, her physical condition is stable. I’ve temporarily entrusted Lily to a friend because there are better doctors over there with better medical facilities.”

When Karen heard his reply, she was relieved.
