Chapter 1233
Madeline did not expect the police to arrest Jeremy right this second.
When the handcuffs were on Jeremy’s wrist, she felt her vision turning black.
Jeremy did not even frown. Using the extra support, he leaped over the railing and went back to the roof.
When the media saw Jeremy getting back up, they started aiming their cameras at him while furiously taking pictures.
The young master of the wealthiest family in Glendale was being arrested for murder.
This scene of his arrest would definitely go viral.
Jeremy looked at the frowning Madeline and did not say anything to her. On the contrary, he just looked at her intensely.
When their eyes met, Madeline could tell what Jeremy wanted to say to her.
“Mr. Whitman, come with us. We’ll get to the bottom of this if you’re really innocent. Retreat!” the police said as he took Jeremy back to the station.
Jeremy did not want to run away anymore, but before he turned around, he stole a glance at Madeline.
Madeline averted her gaze while pretending to be calm. She did not want to look at him.
Jeremy understood and smiled lightly. There was no troubled expression on his face. On the contrary, he looked relieved.
However, before he could walk away, he heard footsteps approaching him.
He turned around and saw Lillian behind him.
Jeremy felt tears welling up in his eyes. He did not expect the child to run back to him at this moment and grab the corner of his shirt.
“Lily.” He bent down and caressed the little girl’s hair. Then, he apologized. “Go back with Mommy. Daddy can’t go home with you now.”
Lillian frowned and shook her head seriously when she looked at Jeremy. Then, she tugged the corner of Jeremy’s shirt like she was asking him to go home with her.
However, Jeremy knew he was unable to leave now.
“Lily, be a good girl. I promise I’ll go home as soon as I can. I’ll take Lily and Jack for burgers and then we’ll go to Pirate Land.”
Lillian’s eyes turned red. She shook her head furiously while looking at Jeremy aggrievedly.
