Chapter 1587
Jeremy spotted Carter as well. Immediately, the information he found out about Carter a few days ago flashed in his mind.
Madeline was sure Carter had seen what happened just now at the press conference, however, she was not sure what was the reason for him to show up all of a sudden like this.
‘Is he here to target Jeremy?’
Madeline pondered silently, and in the next second, Carter had already walked up to her.
He looked at Jeremy and then his gaze landed softly on Madeline’s face.
“I’m here to take you home.”
Carter’s words were brief and to the point, plus his tone sounded so calm. However, to Jeremy, Carter’s words were laced with intense provocation.
Home.
His Linnie only had one home.
Madeline could sense Jeremy’s displeasure. She knew the reporters were about to come out at any second now and since she did not want to cause more gossip and misunderstanding, she politely smiled and said.
“Mr. Carter, let me introduce you to my husband, Jeremy Whitman. Thank you for saving my life at sea back then. My husband thanks you too.”
Jeremy understood the hints in Madeline’s eyes. As such, he displayed a smile and said gently, “Mr. Gray, thank you for saving my wife back then. If there’s anything you need, feel free to voice out.”
After Carter heard what they said, he did not give any reaction. However, his eyes were still on Madeline. Compared to his calm tone from just now, his tone sounded colder now.
“I think you need to give me an explanation regarding some matters. Eveline, how will you reconcile with your conscience after lying to someone who had saved you?”
“…” Indeed, he already knew that she was the real Eveline.
Madeline nodded. After she grabbed Jeremy’s arm, they walked to the parking lot.
More than ten minutes later, she felt excited after stepping into the doors of Whitman Manor once again. She could finally come back to her home as Eveline.
When Karen saw Madeline back with Jeremy, she was excited as well.
“Eveline, it’s so good to see you! I thought something bad had happened to you,” Karen said while feeling fortunate. She then lifted her hand to wipe away the tears in the corner of her eyes.
Madeline could feel Karen’s worries and longings for her. Therefore, she went over to hug Karen while feeling touched.
“Mom, I’m fine.”
Karen patted her shoulder. “It’s good that you’re fine. Tell me, what happened? Naomi said she pushed you into the river and Jeremy went to find you but couldn’t find anything. What in the world happened?’
Karen asked the question she had in her heart as Madeline looked at the man next to her with a smile.
