Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 243

Chapter 243

After he heard what was said from the other end of the phone, Jeremy tightened his grip on it.

Upon hanging up, he opened the app on his phone and saw the latest email he received. His pupils constricted as his finger lingered above the screen, but he did not tap the screen.

Honk, honk!

The cars behind them started honking as the light had already turned green.

“Are you alright, Mr. Whitman?” Madeline looked at him curiously.

Jeremy pressed down on the lock key and tossed his phone to one side. “I’m fine.”

He pressed down on the accelerator. His deep eyes looked at Madeline intensely before he looked back to the road ahead.

Madeline wanted to know more about Jackson, so that was why she got into the car. However, after that phone call, the air inside the car became tense and horrifyingly quiet.

After the car stopped in front of the kindergarten, Madeline picked Lillian up but she did not run into Jackson. The teacher told her someone had already taken Jackson away.

Madeline felt dispirited when she did not get to see Jackson.

However, she was also worried if Jackson was taken away by Meredith. Would Meredith do something heinous to that child again?

Jeremy stood at one side as he looked at the mother-daughter duo walking into the nightfall. He pressed his lips together.

There were a million expectations in his head but that was also the reason why he refused to look at the email. He was afraid that he would see something he did not want to see.

No matter what outrageous thing happened three years ago, he would be able to accept it. At this moment, he wished the woman in front of him was her.

Jeremy thought about that as he looked at Madeline. Suddenly, a car stopped in front of him.

Felipe walked out of the car and made his way over to Madeline. He picked up Lillian who was standing next to her. After conversing for a while, Felipe walked in front of Jeremy and smiled at him.

“Jeremy, thank you for driving Vera over to pick up Lillian.”

Jeremy looked at him with a piercing gaze. “No need to thank me. I only did this to get closer to her.”
