Chapter 1488
“Lillian, don’t be scared. I’ll take you home right now.”
“Boo-hoo…”
Lillian was sobbing, and Madeline thought she was scared, but when she sensed the shadow approaching behind her, she understood what Lillian meant.
The man who had gone out came back again!
When Madeline turned around, she saw the man holding a bat and was about to swing it down toward her neck.
She dodged it quickly and hid to one side while holding Lillian.
“Who are you? Why did you abduct this child? What do you want?” Madeline protected Lillian. Even if she was extremely nervous, she could not show her anxiety on her face. On the other hand, she started questioning the man ferociously.
The hooligan-looking man had a cigarette dangling from his lips, and he snorted. Then, he lifted his bat to swing it down on Madeline again without a second thought.
Madeline held Lillian tightly. While she was dodging from the bat, she ran quickly to the door.
“Lily, don’t be scared. I won’t let anything happen to you.” Madeline comforted the little princess who was trembling in her arms because of fear.
“I want to see where else you can run to!” The man’s arrogant threats sounded from behind her.
Madeline turned around to look and she saw the man chasing up to them aggressively. She was carrying Lillian, so she could not run fast. When she saw the man getting closer to them, she put Lillian down.
“Lily, run. I’ll go find you soon!”
Lillian was shocked. Even though she could not see Madeline’s full face but when she saw her eyes, the little princess was distracted.
“Lily, run!”
Lillian quivered, her clean and full eyes staring straight at Madeline. Suddenly, her tiny lips parted.
“Mommy.”
Madeline warned the man fearlessly.
“I’m telling you, if you dare to hurt that child, I’ll fight you like my life depends on it!”
The man threw the cigarette between his lips to the ground. “You nosey b*tch, I think you want to die!”
He lifted the bat in his hand and hit Madeline on the shoulder twice.
“So what if I abduct the child? Are you the child’s mother?”
“I am the child’s mother! So, don’t you dare touch her. If not, I’ll fight you with my life!”
After the man heard that, a cheerful grin appeared on his aggressive face. “Oh, so you’re her mother. No wonder you’re doing the utmost to save her. Since you want to take this calamity for your daughter, then please be prepared!”
The man looked malicious, and suddenly, he grabbed Madeline’s neck with almost all of his might.
Madeline lost the freedom to breathe. However, before she could fight back, two tall and lean figures appeared in Madeline’s sight.
