Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman -
Chapter 1765
Under the darkness of the night, Karen relied on the streetlights to see the people in the car, the sight of which immediately made her feel much more at ease. Jeremy was the first to get out of the car after they parked. He then walked toward the backseat and opened the door, then carried Madeline out of the car. When Karen saw this, she could not help but worry.
She quickly walked toward Madeline who was being held by Jeremy. When she saw Madeline's wet, red, and swollen eyes, she got even more worried. "What happened? Eveline, are you feeling unwell?" Madeline smiled at that, shaking her head. "Don't worry about me, mom. I'm fine. I've just twisted my ankle. I'll be fine after resting for a few days."
When Karen heard that, she was even more worried. "How did you twist your ankle? How did it happen? Are you sure you'll be fine after a few days?"
"Yes, definitely," Madeline said with certainty,
nodding. "You can ask Jeremy if you don't believe me."
Jeremy chimed in cooperatively when he heard that. "She'll recover if she recuperates properly. No need to be too worried."
"That's good then." Karen was only relieved then. Suddenly, she remembered something. "Where's Eloise? The maid said you were chasing Eloise.
Where is she now? Why did she suddenly run out on her own?"
"I'm here, Karen."
Eloise's voice sounded from the other side of the backseat.
Karen lifted her head to look over. When she saw Eloise walking toward her with a smile, Karen quickly walked over.
"Eloise, why did you run out suddenly? I'd only gone to the toilet and you disobediently ran out to play. Do you know that it's dangerous if there's no one with you? Don't do this again next time." Karen scolded Eloise as if she was lecturing a child.
She did not know that Eloise's mental state had already recovered just a while ago.
Meanwhile, listening to Karen's earnest scolding,
Eloise nodded and promised seriously and obediently. "I know. I won't make you guys worry about me from now on."
"Good." Satisfied, Karen smiled, then grabbed Eloise's hand. "Let's head into the house then. Sean and the others should be home soon as well. It's nearly dinner time."
Karen held Eloise's hand as she walked toward the house. However, after taking two steps, Karen still felt that something was amiss.
She looked at Eloise with curiosity and seriousness. "Eloise, it seems that you're speaking much more normally than before."
When Eloise heard this, a smile appeared on her graceful face.
"Are you saying that I didn't sound normal back then, Karen?"

"When Karen heard that, she abruptly stopped in her tracks, and the look in her eyes changed. " Eloise, you..."
Karen was evidently puzzled, especially when she saw the calm and serious look on Eloise's face.
This look could only be seen on a normal person who was also a refined and elegant woman.
"Eveline, Eveline, do you think that your mother seems a little odd?" Karen turned her head to ask Madeline. She then asked Jeremy again, "Jeremy, what do you think? Eloise's tone sounds different from before."
Jeremy and Madeline shared a look and smile, then he said, "Of course it's different. She's already recovered."
'Recovered? 'Recovered!'
Jeremy's words went through Karen's ears, and only after a while, Karen could register the unbelievable news.
