Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 1862

Presently, a piece of news came through the phone’s pushed notification.

A certain suburban villa was reported to have caught fire last night, resulting in the deaths of a man and a woman.

Jeremy’s heart began thumping erratically upon reading this news.

While the news article did not specify the identities of the man and woman, Jeremy had a feeling that they were Adam and Cathy.

Nevertheless, he still held onto a glimmer of hope. However, Madeline immediately recognized the villa in the picture.

“Isn’t that Carter’s villa in Glendale?” Madeline pointed to the picture on the phone screen.

“Is it true that Gray Villa caught fire last night? And a man and woman died as a result?”

For some inexplicable reason, Madeline’s heartbeat was similarly unsettled. She also noticed that Jeremy was driving in the direction of Gray Villa.

“Jeremy, are you going to look for Carter?”

“I’m looking for Shirley. I want to know Cathy and Adam’s whereabouts.” Jeremy, looking ahead at the road, drove faster.

Madeline’s heart seemed to skip a beat hearing that. She stared at the side of Jeremy’s solemn face

and glanced down again at the news on her phone. A n aversive thought began to slowly form in her mind.

“Jeremy, could it be that the man and woman who were burned to death in the news were Cathy and Adam?”

Madeline voiced her suspicions. As her words rang through the air, she felt her palms growing cold.

“No, it’s not possible. An accident like this would never happen, ” Madeline denied repeatedly, but Jeremy’s silence only made her feel more uneasy.

Before long, Jeremy’s car pulled up at the main gate of Gray Villa.

Madeline smelled a powerful burnt odor the moment she got out of the car.
