Chapter 726
Felipe’s eyes glinted, and when he was about to say something, Madeline quickly walked over from behind him.
Jeremy looked at Madeline. “Linnie…”
Slap!
Madeline slapped Jeremy heavily across the face.
Jeremy’s face was turned to the side from the slap and the excruciating pain crept into his heart.
Madeline glared at Jeremy with tears in her eyes. She was biting her lip tightly. “Even if you didn’t want to kill Lily, she still went missing under your care. You won’t be able to get away from this responsibility no matter what you say!”
Her eyes looked pained. “Jeremy, why do you have to make me hate you?” Madeline said before turning around. Then, Felipe chased behind her.
Jeremy did not even get to see Lilian for the last time before she was brought into the car.
After a while, everything around him plunged into silence. Jeremy stood there alone while stuck in a daze.
He had not protected the woman he loved back then and caused her to die in his arms. Today, he made the same fatal mistake again.
Jeremy could not forgive himself for his negligence. He punched a tree nearby and roared in pain. Then, he let out a wail before falling to the ground.
“Lillian…”
…
Lillian’s passing interrupted Madeline’s plan to go back to F Country with Felipe.
Madeline stayed in bed for a few days as she could not handle the loss. She handed Felipe the responsibility to handle Lillian’s funeral.
Whenever she thought about the little girl who looked like a little fairy when she laughed, Madeline felt that it was getting extremely hard to breathe. However, she could not even cry anymore.
Yet when Jackson asked her where Lillian was, she could not stop her tears from falling.
Half a month later, the police captured the human trafficker who had kidnapped Lillian.
