Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 629

Chapter 629

Madeline turned around to see Jeremy standing by the entrance.

While the fact that Jeremy had turned back around shocked her, she ensured that her expression betrayed nothing.

She did not care whether Jeremy had heard the words she said.

“Jeremy! You heard what this woman said, right? She admitted it! She admitted to hitting Aunty Karen! How could she be so cruel? Even after doing something like that, she still has the galls to act innocent too!” Yvonne took the chance to make Madeline look bad.

“You can’t possibly still believe that she’s innocent, right, Jeremy? All it took was a bit of taunting from me and she admitted everything! How can she be so wicked?” Furious flames flared in Karen’s eyes.

Jeremy stared at a poised Madeline and slowly walked over.

His gaze dimmed with every step, the look on his face turning into disappointment.

“I can’t believe that it really was you, Linnie.” He seemed to have believed her.

Karen’s expression bloomed into a relieved smile at Jeremy’s sigh.

Yvonne was ecstatic now that Jeremy would no longer defend Madeline!

Even if Madeline’s confession was purely fury-driven, as long as Jeremy believed that Madeline was the one who hurt Karen, then that would be the final truth.

In the end, all she had to do was ensure that Old Master Whitman would never speak again. If Yvonne succeeded, she would be able to walk free!

Elated, she looked up to see Jeremy frowning at Madeline with his peach-blossom eyes that were filled with disappointment.

What a wonderful turn of events!

“Answer me, Linnie. Was it really you?” Jeremy asked again, refusing to believe that she did it.

“What do you have to complain about when you didn’t even take responsibility for the time you pushed me onto the floor? My forehead bled when it hit the corner of the coffee table and you didn’t even apologize. Not even once!”

“…” Karen’s initial confidence to yell back at Madeline shrunk. “You… So you did do it for revenge, Madeline Crawford! You were the one who hit me!”

“So what if I did? Are you telling me you’ve never hit me? Who are you to accuse me?”

“…” Karen had nothing to retort. Her expression flashed from anger to humiliation as she ordered Yvonne, “Call the police, Yvonne! Call the police! This woman has admitted to everything!”

Yvonne immediately obliged, unable to wait for Madeline to be locked behind bars. The fact that Jeremy did not stop her only elated her mood.

The police arrived shortly with Karen and Yvonne both accusing Madeline.

Before the police’s questioning, Madeline admitted calmly, “Indeed, those were my words.”

“Please follow us to the police station for an investigation. We’ll let you go accordingly if we conclude that you’re innocent.”
