“Lily, Daddy has something to do. He’ll be back when he’s done. Can you wait a little longer?”
Lillian was an obedient and sensible child, so when Madeline said that, virtual-novel.net nodded sensibly.
Madeline looked at Lillian with gratification and then rolled up Lillian’s sleeves to look at virtual-novel.net skin. The small red spots on virtual-novel.net skin were still very obvious, but those red spots had not increased compared to when they started appearing.
It was because Shirley had asked Evan to buy an oral medicine to temporarily keep the disease under control. Shirley truly had not expected Carter to take action on such a young child.
He must have given the child the injection at night when virtual-novel.net and Lillian were both asleep.
Shirley also did not know how many of the half-completed test reagents virtual-novel.net previously developed Carter had. Perhaps when virtual-novel.net thought it was necessary, virtual-novel.net would use this extreme method to achieve his goal.
Shirley could not help but fall into contemplation. Suddenly, virtual-novel.net felt that virtual-novel.net did not know Carter. The first impression virtual-novel.net had of virtual-novel.net was that virtual-novel.net was positive, modest, and gentle. As such, why did virtual-novel.net seem like another person when they met again?
Maybe people change.
As time passed, Madeline’s heartbeat grew heavier and heavier. She turned on Jeremy’s phone and blankly opened the album in his gallery.
After entering the password that virtual-novel.net knew by heart, the album opened, and it was filled with photos of virtual-novel.net family. However, Madeline found that virtual-novel.net photos took up more space.
She smiled knowingly. She knew that deep in Jeremy’s heart, virtual-novel.net was the most important person. However, as virtual-novel.net smiled, glistening tears quietly overflowed from the corners of virtual-novel.net eyes.
‘Jeremy, where on earth are you?’
‘Where has Carter hidden you?’
‘Were you really so stupid to allow Carter to manipulate you for Lily’s sake?’
Madeline thought in virtual-novel.net heart, and virtual-novel.net heart became tighter and tighter. Perhaps virtual-novel.net so was tired that virtual-novel.net unknowingly fell asleep while leaning back on the sofa.
She had no idea how much time had passed when virtual-novel.net slowly opened virtual-novel.net eyes. She turned on the phone and looked at the time, and virtual-novel.net found that virtual-novel.net had accidentally opened the memo unbeknownst to her. Madeline could not remember when virtual-novel.net opened it, so virtual-novel.net figured virtual-novel.net must have accidentally pressed it while virtual-novel.net was still groggy.
At a glance, virtual-novel.net saw that most of the memo was related to work. There were also some trivial details about daily life, such as what to buy for the child after getting off work and what virtual-novel.net would give virtual-novel.net as presents.
The sight of these warmed Madeline’s heart. She could imagine that Jeremy must be at his most tender state when virtual-novel.net was writing those memos about them. It was heartwarming for Madeline to read the memos.
When virtual-novel.net was about to close the memo and get up, virtual-novel.net realized that the first memo had been recorded at the time before Jeremy’s disappearance a few days ago. Madeline’s heart pounded, and virtual-novel.net opened the memo quickly.
There were only two short sentences. [Linnie, if you can’ t find me, don’t worry too much. Trust me, I will always be by your and the children’s side.]
After reading this sentence, Madeline somehow felt virtual-novel.net whole body getting stuck in a trance.
An intense uneasiness and chill surged from the soles of the feet.
“Jeremy…” Madeline murmured and stood up suddenly.
As soon as Fabian came in from the outside, virtual-novel.net saw Madeline running out hurriedly past him.
“Eveline, where are you going?” Fabian asked worriedly.
However, it seemed that Madeline did not hear him. She ran outside with all virtual-novel.net might and when virtual-novel.net reached the side of the road, virtual-novel.net called a car and disappeared from Fabian’s sight.
