Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 1209

Chapter 1209

Just when Madeline was about to struggle, she heard a very familiar voice.

“Shh, it’s me.”

A man’s deep voice tickled her ears while he then yanked her to the streets.

After ensuring that those people who were tracking them had left, the man halted a cab and brought Madeline into the car.

In the car, Madeline stared at the man’s face and felt rather upset.

“You’re the one who sent me the message earlier?” she asked. Deep in her heart, she thought it had been from Jeremy.

Fabian noticed the disappointment on Madeline’s face. He put on a faint smile and said, “Are you disappointed?”

He had already heard about the news of Lana’s murder.

Seeing Fabian’s face that was plastered with a thoughtful smile, Madeline looked into his orbs generously. “In my opinion, Lana deserved it, but I can tell you right to your face that my husband is not the murderer.”

“I knew you’d say that.” It was as if Fabian had anticipated it. He let out a mocking laugh. “The only family I have in this world has died as well. Say, do you think there’s any meaning to me living on?”

Madeline frowned when she heard his comment. “Fabian, your intention of asking me out isn’t just to tell me this, right? Or are you saying that you intend to avenge your sister?”

Fabian let out a self-deprecating smile before suddenly giving a cold stare. “I’ve said it before. I don’t have such a sister.”

Fabian had never acknowledged Lana’s way of doing things. However, he let out a sigh afterward. “But I have to admit that she’s still my family.”

Fabian looked at Madeline with an apologetic gaze. “Madeline, will you forgive Lana?”

“She’s already dead. There’re lots of things that I want to look up to but I can’t. Again, I’ll never forgive her.” Madeline clenched her fingers, and her gaze became cold. “Jeremy and I have been separated time and again. We had it tough, but finally, our family got the opportunity to reunite. However, it was all destroyed in the hands of Lana!”

‘What?’

Madeline was lost, but the next second, Fabian raised his arm and placed his palm on her shoulder.

“…”

“You need to act as my girlfriend,” said Fabian.

Madeline did not shove him aside. Her sixth sense was telling her that something was going to happen next because her heart started thumping fast.

To her surprise, Fabian brought Madeline to the floor where the presidential suite in which Lana got murdered was located.

Madeline saw the press and the police who were observing the crime scene.

Fabian, with a cynical look, held onto Madeline, who was wearing a sexy outfit and a pair of sunglasses, as they walked to one of the rooms. He took out a key to open the door and said to her, “Dear, it’s very noisy here. I should’ve gotten a room in another hotel if I knew this would happen.”
