Chapter 789
Madeline saw the computer screen lighting up, followed by the sound of Felipe’s voice.
This time, what was displayed was no longer a surveillance image but a real-time video session.
Madeline saw the unfamiliar environment again, and immediately afterward, an innocent, cute, smart, and well-behaved doll-like face appeared on the screen.
“Lilian!” Madeline yelled out uncontrollably.
On the screen, Lilian could hear Madeline’s cry. She fluttered her clear big eyes, rushed to the computer screen confusedly, and yelled, “Mommy! Mommy!”
This voice was indeed Lilian’s.
Madeline lifted her hand to cover her lips in disbelief as tears instantly fell.
“Lilian, Lilian can you see Mommy? Is it really you? Lilian!” she questioned anxiously, wishing that she had the magic to pull out the little cutie from the computer screen.
Lilian was still young and did not know much about video calls, but she saw Madeline on the computer screen and even heard her mother’s voice.
“Mommy, Lily misses you. When will Mommy come to pick Lily up? Lily also misses Jackie and that handsome mister.”
“Lilian, Mommy will come to pick you very soon. Wait for Mommy… Lilian, Lilian!”
Felipe suddenly cut off the video before Madeline could finish speaking.
She looked back in dissatisfaction and saw Felipe’s cold expression.
“Felipe Whitman, where exactly are you hiding my daughter? How could you use such a cruel method just to separate Jeremy and me? Do you know how painful it was when I thought Lilian was dead?!”
“Tidy up. We’ll return to Country F in two days and build our new family, okay?” He let go of Madeline’s hand with a smile, then turned around and left.
Madeline clenched her fists and looked at the already dimmed computer screen. She knew she had no choice.
Felipe had this planned a long time ago.
Now, he no longer had the elegant demeanor of a gentleman. What was left was only a touch of paranoid possessiveness and an aggressive desire to win.
Madeline received a call from Jeremy on the way back.
Looking at the display name, she wanted to pick up but could only let it continue ringing until Jeremy ended the call.
She returned to Montgomery Manor. Eloise was very happy to see her and intimately pulled her to sit down on the sofa.
