Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 2069

Fabian asked directly. When he saw the gift box that had been returned, his eyes were laced with disappointment and dissatisfaction.

Jeremy lifted the corner of his lips into a soft smile and said, “Fabian, I can understand how you felt when you gifted this to Lily, but it’s too expensive.“

“Too expensive?“ Fabian was obviously confused by this word, he then laughed. “The number one rich man in Glendale just told me that my gift is too expensive.“

Jeremy understood what Fabian meant, and he still had a soft smile on his face.

“My family background has nothing to do with whether the present is expensive or not. Fabian, I know how you feel about Lily, and so does Linnie, but I don’t think this is suitable for Lily,“ Jeremy still rejected him.

Fabian nodded thoughtfully. “You should go, then.“

“I was going to leave, but I still want to formally thank you.“

Fabian quickly replied, “I have received it. Jeremy, you can go now.“

“Alright.“ Jeremy did not speak further. When he turned to leave, he turned his head again. “I also need to apologize to you. I had hidden what I knew about the Stygian Johnson Gang from you, so that can be regarded as taking advantage of your trust in me. Now I understand why you targeted me and Linnie.“

The air was silent for a moment after he said that. After a long time, Fabian smiled.

“It’s over now.“ Fabian smiled in relief. “I’ve thought it through, and it’ll be meaningless to investigate the past. Besides, I should thank you and Eveline.“

“Thank me and Linnie?“ Jeremy was confused this time. “Thank me and Linnie for what?“

“Thank you for bringing Lily to this world. Lily really makes me feel worthy in the world, and she also gives me the motivation to live a good life.“

Upon hearing this, Jeremy was quite moved.

After being silent for a while, Jeremy said, “You can come to see Lily anytime and anywhere. The door to Whitman Manor will always be open for you.“
