Chapter 265
Jeremy sped to the place where he just saw the white figure. His heart was beating so fast that it felt like it was going to jump out of his chest.
‘Maddie!
‘Is that you, Maddie?’
He screamed Madeline’s name in his heart over and over again as he was sure that he was not hallucinating.
However, when he got to the grave, there was no one there.
What he saw moments ago was perhaps just a dream.
His heart went cold.
Was he having hallucinations from missing her too much?
Jeremy thought of that while feeling dispirited. When he was about to leave, he saw a trail of smoke coming from a grave nearby.
He narrowed his eyes and strode over.
He walked in front of Len’s grave. Len was Madeline’s grandfather. He could see the bouquet of white chrysanthemums in front of the tombstone and a candle that was still burning.
Indeed, he had not been hallucinating earlier. Someone had been here to pay their respects to Len!
Who else would come to pay respects to Len aside from Madeline?
Jeremy’s heart started racing again. He turned around and ran to the entrance of the cemetery without hesitating.
Under the setting sun, he could see a black car driving up to the main road from the exit.
Jeremy quickly drove his car and chased behind it. He kept speeding up.
He had a lot in his mind right now. His heartbeat was a clear indication of his emotions and how expectant he was feeling right now. He was expecting to chase up to the car in front of him. He was also expecting to see that she was the person in the car. He hoped that even though she had been declared dead three years ago, she would be the one driving the car.
However, after Jeremy chased up to the car, he saw only a man driving. There was no one else inside.
He felt as if his heart had plunged into a bottomless abyss. His expectations had turned into a pathetic illusion.
‘She’s dead.
‘Jeremy Whitman, she was tortured to death by you.
