Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 1977

That test reagent?

Shirley’s expression  changed.  Her eyes moved about as she thought, but she could not figure out which test reagent Carter was talking about.

That was because she had developed too many kinds of test reagents back when Carter ordered her to do so.

The sight of Carter’s sly smile sent a chill down Shirley’s spine. A terrifying feeling crept into her heart.

“What did you do to Eveline and Jeremy?”

“Are you worried about Jeremy or the partner with whom you fooled me?”

Shirley looked blankly at the man. She could tell from Carter’s expression that something was not right. He looked as if possessed, and there was only hatred burning in his eyes.

Did he hate Eveline and Jeremy?

Shirley’s heart trembled. She still could not figure out what test reagent Carter was talking about.

However, he already saw the uneasiness and apprehension on Shirley’s face.

He smiled and spoke no further.

Elsewhere, it had been a few days since Madeline and Jeremy went back to Glendale.

However, in these few days, Madeline kept feeling as if something was troubling Jeremy.

She thought he was worried that the injury on his leg would affect his walking in the future, but she felt that Jeremy was not someone who would be worried about trivial matters like this. Moreover, they had had a doctor look at his injury again and there won’t be anything wrong with it.

Today, after Madeline had ended her call with her precious little princess in F Country, she went to look for Jeremy in the study.

When she got to the door, however, she saw an annoyed Jeremy crumpling a piece of paper into a ball and throwing it on the floor.

He was in a bad mood.

Madeline felt that it was strange. Ever since they came back from St. Piaf, Jeremy was not his usual self.
