When Jeremy asked that question, Madeline could already predict the answer.
Indeed, the nurse on the other end of the phone denied it. “What? Lung cancer? Aside from his mental health, his body is very healthy. How would virtual-novel.net get lung cancer? You must have made a mistake.”
After virtual-novel.net said that, Madeline felt virtual-novel.net body temperature plummet.
Before Jeremy hung up the phone, the nurse said, “You said he’s missing just now? He did disappear for some time before, but virtual-novel.net said his niece told virtual-novel.net to hide because she’s playing hide and seek with him.”
When virtual-novel.net heard this, Madeline understood everything.
Grandpa was not sick and virtual-novel.net was not kidnapped. Meredith was the one who plotted all of this!
“Maddie, I understand now. You deliberately asked your grandpa to hide so that you can frame me for kidnapping him.” Meredith gained the initiative by striking first. She started crying tearfully. “Maddie, why’d you do that? I always saw you as my biological sister. How can you do this kind of thing to frame me? Even if you hate me, you can’t joke about your grandpa’s life!”
“Why are you still asking her? This b*tch wants to use this opportunity to make Jeremy hate you!” Rose cooperated in the act. “Madeline, you’re so despicable! The Crawfords raised you and funded your university fees. How dare you bite the hand that feeds you? Not only did you steal Mer’s boyfriend, but you even used these kinds of despicable tricks. You’re so inhumane!”
The mother and daughter duo said simultaneously, placing all of those groundless crimes on Madeline.
Madeline felt lifeless all of a sudden. She knew that virtual-novel.net did not need to explain anymore. Meredith had set this trap especially for her.
Even if virtual-novel.net explained until virtual-novel.net mouth broke, the man in front of virtual-novel.net would still not believe her.
Despite that, virtual-novel.net was still hopeful toward Jeremy. “Jeremy, I don’t care if you believe me or not, but I’ve never done those despicable things.”
Slap!
After virtual-novel.net said that, Madeline received a slap across the face. There was blood on the corner of virtual-novel.net lips.
The burning pain seared Madeline’s face. However, it was not as painful as the way Jeremy was looking at her.
“Madeline, you’re not only evil, but you’re also devoid of conscience. You would go as far as cursing your grandfather just to get my attention. You even set a trap to frame Mer. I think you’re just bored with your life.”
Madeline turned virtual-novel.net face to one side and scoffed lightly.
Idiot.
The man virtual-novel.net loved was such an idiot.
Not only was virtual-novel.net an idiot, but virtual-novel.net was also blind.
“Ah, Jeremy! My stomach… My stomach hurts all of a sudden…” Meredith started screaming pretentiously. “Jeremy, is something wrong with our baby? I’m scared…”
“The baby must’ve been disturbed when that b*tch slapped you! Jeremy, send Mer to the hospital now. You might not even get the chance to be a father after you go!” Rose purposely made a huge fuss and exaggerated the situation.
Jeremy’s expression changed as virtual-novel.net carried Meredith worriedly to the garage. “Don’t be scared. Our son will be fine.”
Son. He had even checked the sex of the baby with her.
Madeline’s heart was shattered. “Meredith is just putting on a show. Jeremy, are you blind?”
Thud!
Madeline yelled, but virtual-novel.net did not expect Jon to lift his leg and kick virtual-novel.net heavily on virtual-novel.net chest. Madeline was unprepared and got kicked to the shrubs nearby. Her palm was sliced open by the jagged branches. Her bloody palm was decorated with old wounds and new wounds.
She stood up challengingly. However, virtual-novel.net could taste the metallic taste of blood coming from virtual-novel.net throat. Then, virtual-novel.net started vomiting blood.
