Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 1626

Chapter 1626

Carter’s cold gaze swept across Ada’s face. “You can go back too.”

“…”

Ada pressed her lips together. Although she was very reluctant, she did not have another choice. As such, she could only pretend to be sensible and said to Camille in concern.

“Aunty Cammy, I’ll be heading back first. You’ve been busy the whole day today. Please rest early.”

Camille waved her hand. “Go back first, then.”

Ada did not dare to say much and left soon after.

“Is she still unconscious?” Camille’s tone was slightly dissatisfied.

Carter nodded. “Maybe she has been too tense these days, so that’s why she’s like this.”

“Does she already have three children with that Jeremy guy?”

Camille suddenly changed the subject, but Carter looked calm.

“I don’t care how many children she had before this.”

“…Y-You don’t you care?” Camille was surprised and stood up. “Carter, do you like Eveline to such an extent?”

“I do.” Carter listened to the words he said and smiled vaguely. “Rest early. We still have a lot to do tomorrow.”

“…” Camille still wanted to say something, but seeing Carter bluntly turning his back toward her, she felt that it was useless to say anything more.

Late at night.

Everyone in Gray Manor had fallen asleep.

A tall and slender figure quietly entered one of the bedrooms.

“Leave.” Madeline insisted, saying, “Jeremy, if you continue to stay here, you’ll only place yourself in a more dangerous situation. I’m not scaring you. You saw the situation yourself earlier today.”

“As long as I can take Linnie home, I don’t care what danger I encounter.”

“But I do,” Madeline talked back indifferently, “I don’t want to see you, do you know that? Leave now. If you don’t leave, I’ll call for someone.”

Jeremy’s clenched hand loosened slightly, but he still could not bear to let go.

Madeline furrowed her eyebrows and shook off Jeremy’s palm suddenly. “Get lost!”

It was unknown whether Madeline’s movement was too abrupt and shocking, but Jeremy was thrown to the side and ended up slamming into the wall.

He let out a muffled sound of pain, and his body doubled over reflexively.

Madeline saw Jeremy touching his ankle subconsciously. Even though the moonlight was not so bright, she still saw that Jeremy’s face was gradually turning pale. She felt her heartstrings tightening. “Jeremy, what happened to you?”
