Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 687

Chapter 687

Yvonne also spun around to look. She was shocked to see her comrades pushing Madeline into the room.

“Madeline?” Karen thought she was seeing an illusion, but the woman before her was in fact the actual Madeline.

“So it’s you.” Madeline did not seem too surprised to see that it was Yvonne. “Previously, it was you who sent a guy with the name Tanner Long to kidnap my daughter, right?”

Yvonne was startled as she did not expect Madeline to even figure out the truth behind that incident. Then, she curled her lips and giggled. “Yeah, it’s me. So what? You still failed to catch me.”

She strolled toward Madeline. “But I never thought that you’ll risk your life for her.”

Madeline looked at Karen who was at the corner with her hands shamefully tied up.

Her gorgeous eyes looked at Karen scornfully. She smirked and said, “For her? Do you think she’s worth risking my life for?”

“Worth? What do you mean, Madeline?!” Karen was crossed.

Madeline’s expression was elegant yet stony. “It means I won’t be bothered even if you’re dead.”

“Then… Then did you show up?!”

“Do you think I really want to come? It was Grandpa who pleaded with me, so I could only agree to come to deliver the ransom. Initially, I thought of leaving after handing over the money, but they dragged me into the car. If I knew things would turn out like this, I’d never have agreed to Grandpa’s request in the first place. Whether you’re dead or alive, I’m not at all concerned.” Madeline roared as she looked at Karen disdainfully.

“You… You…” Karen was at a loss for words.

Yvonne witnessed the incident and chuckled delightfully.

“Like I said, how is it possible for you to risk your life for my aunt?”

“Let’s get rid of them since we’ve got the money!” One of the men suggested.

Karen was trembling. Desperadoes like them would definitely carry out tasks like murdering a person.

“Wait a moment.” The other man stopped him and shifted his greedy eyes to Madeline’s body. “If an old lady is worth 500,000, then I guess Jeremy’s wife should at least be worth a million, right?”

Yvonne initially had no plans to ask for another sum of money, but thinking that Jeremy had lost his sight, she realized he would never be able to do her any harm no matter how powerful he was.

She thought hard, then smirked and looked at Madeline.

Winston brought Jeremy to the spot where Madeline was last seen.
