Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 874

Chapter 874

“Looking for your daughter? Who’s your daughter?”

“Lillian Whitman.” Jeremy raised his frosty gaze. “The four-year-old girl you Stygian Johnsons stole from Felipe’s outer courtyard.”

Confused, Yorick leaned over to quietly ask Fabian, who stood beside him, about what was happening.

Watching the two whisper between themselves, Jeremy demanded coldly, “Give my daughter back to me.”

Yorick quirked an eyebrow and chuckled. “It’s not that I’m unwilling to return your daughter. However, a price must be paid.”

“Stop!”

Yorick was about to go for Jeremy’s life when a woman’s voice suddenly called for them to halt.

Her voice shot through Jeremy’s gloomy heart like a warm ray of sunshine.

He quickly turned his head to stare at the woman who was striding toward him. “Linnie.”

“Why are you here, Jeremy?” Madeline stared at the man in front of her with concern. “Didn’t I tell you to rest in the hospital?”

Jeremy grabbed Madeline’s hand with excitement shining in his eyes. “It’s Lillian. Our daughter’s still alive, Linnie.”

Madeline was shocked. “How did you know?”

“Felipe told me himself.” Jeremy then relayed the incident of how Felipe had visited him in the hospital moments ago.

Madeline understood what was going on in no time.

Felipe had been using Lillian’s safety to threaten her this whole time, but now that Lillian had been saved from him, he lost his bargaining chip. This was why he decided to tell Jeremy, so that Jeremy would come and risk his life in Felipe’s place.

Felipe’s hatred for Jeremy was evident from such an act. He would not think twice before throwing Jeremy into harm’s way in hopes for the latter to die in the process of taking Lillian back.
