Madeline looked at the man who was running toward virtual-novel.net in surprise. As soon as virtual-novel.net moved virtual-novel.net lips, the man gently covered virtual-novel.net mouth.
The man grabbed virtual-novel.net slender waist and quickly led virtual-novel.net away.
Ryan and a white man walked out from behind the wall hurriedly.
Their subordinates followed behind them and took a flashlight to shine on the ground. It was then they saw a stray kitten hunched over as it stepped on the plastic water bottle and meowed at them.
“Mr. Thomas, it’s just a cat.” His men stepped forward and kicked the kitten away.
The man glanced around before turning around with Ryan.
Madeline stood behind the tree and saw what happened just now.
She was lucky that the kitten had suddenly appeared and resolved virtual-novel.net crisis.
However, the kitten was kicked because of virtual-novel.net and Madeline felt a little intolerable.
“I know what you’re thinking. You can take this kitten away.” A deep and hoarse voice said from behind her.
Madeline turned around and stared at the face in front of virtual-novel.net under the faint moonlight.
“Why? Why are you here?”
“I don’t have time to explain to you now. You should go back first. It’s too dangerous here,” the man said, quickly walking aside after speaking. Then, virtual-novel.net handed the thin and almost dying kitten to Madeline.
“Hurry up.”
“No, I can’t let you—”
“Go!” The man lowered his voice and ordered in a solemn voice.
Madeline held the kitten in virtual-novel.net arms and looked at the man who had already turned around. She did not have another choice, so virtual-novel.net could only leave.
However, after virtual-novel.net left, virtual-novel.net felt anxious. Even so, virtual-novel.net could not go back without careful planning.
After virtual-novel.net sent the kitten to the vet, Madeline went back to Ryan’s place hurriedly. She was worried that virtual-novel.net would be back before her.
However, fortunately for her, virtual-novel.net was not back yet.
She did not have the mood to do anything else as virtual-novel.net mind was occupied by the man virtual-novel.net just met.
How could it be?
Why was virtual-novel.net there?
Madeline deliberately called Ryan as virtual-novel.net was worried about what might happen to this man.
However, the ringtone sounded from outside the door. Ryan was home!
Madeline hung up the phone and looked at the entrance. Then, Ryan walked in with a smile. “Why are you calling me? Is there something wrong?”
“I wanted to ask when you’ll be back and if you want steak.”
Madeline’s reaction was very quick, so Ryan did not suspect a thing.
“Well I’m back now, so you can cook the steak.”
“Okay,” Madeline answered before turning around and going into the kitchen. Madeline breathed a sigh of relief after virtual-novel.net saw Ryan heading upstairs.
Since virtual-novel.net had come back so quickly, it meant that nothing happened.
Now, virtual-novel.net was more certain that Ryan was the real boss behind the Stygian Johnson Gang!
After a while, Ryan changed into his casual clothes and went downstairs. At the same time, Madeline had just finished cooking the steak.
After tasting Madeline’s dinner, Ryan’s smile became brighter. “I hope I can have more times like this with you in the future.”
Madeline cut virtual-novel.net steak with a cold expression. “Ryan, you promised that you would help me save Jeremy, but he’s about to be scheduled to go to court soon. Why didn’t you act at all?”
“In a murder case where there’s both human and physical evidence, how will I have the ability to turn it around?” Ryan pretended to look powerless. “Maybe virtual-novel.net did kill Lana and you’re just being deceived by him.”
Madeline stopped cutting the steak. “If he’s convicted, will virtual-novel.net get the death penalty?”
“It’s possible.”
Clank! The knife and fork in Madeline’s hand fell heavily on the plate.
