Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Chapter 1911

The man's eyes widened. He had never expected that Madeline would outright kick him.

He yelped in pain and reflexively let go of his hand that held Jackson.

Madeline ran over with lightning speed and caught Jackson as he felled.

"Jack!" Madeline held the little guy tightly into her arms.

"Mommy, I'm fine. Don't worry about me, " Jackson said to calm Madeline down, knowing that his mother was worried about him.

Madeline, not bothering with those two men any further, held Jackson and was about to get into the car.

However, when she opened the door to get in the car, suddenly a black gun muzzle was pointed at the back of her head.

"Eveline, you have to come with us even if you don't want to," the man behind her threatened.

Jackson's clear, big eyes widened, staring at the man who threatened Madeline with a gun.

Nonetheless, Madeline did not fluster.

She raised her proud and beautiful eyes and calmly opened her lips.

"If you have the guts, shoot me now. If you can't, don't block my way home."

The man holding the gun had not expected Madeline to be completely fearless.

He had intended to threaten her, but now, he was the one flustered.

If they could not bring Madeline back, they would not be able to complete their mission.

If the mission were not completed, severe punishment would await them.

Upon seeing the lack of response and reaction in the two men, Madeline placed Jackson into the car. After closing the door, she turned around and faced the man who was still pointing the gun at her. "So? Are you going to shoot me? If not, I'm leaving."

"..." When the man heard this, he moved his finger slightly, but he indeed dared not pull the trigger.

When Madeline saw the man's mannerism, she smiled faintly, and without speaking further, got into the car and drove away.

Jackson, who was sitting in the back of the car, looked at the two men standing there through the rear window.

"Mommy, who are they?" Jackson asked curiously.

Madeline glanced at the two figures that were getting farther and farther away in the rearview mirror. "Jack, don't be scared. Mommy will protect you no matter what."

Jackson happily turned around and praised, " Mommy looked so cool just now. You look even cooler than Daddy!"

Madeline laughed after hearing this.

In any case, she would not let anyone hurt her baby again.

This was her duty as a mother, and her instinct was to protect her children.

After Madeline returned home, Jeremy returned soon after.

She told Jeremy what had happened when she picked up Jackson. As with Madeline, Jeremy was

also convinced that the two men had been sent by Carter.

"Linnie, from now on, I will personally bring Jack to and from school." Jeremy decided.

Madeline did not refute either.

If Carter still wanted to attack Jackson, Jeremy would be more capable of protecting their son better compared to her anyway.

After all, she was a woman. Regardless of how strong she was, she still did not have the strength and stamina of a man.

However, after the two men failed their mission and went back to report to Carter, they thought Carter would get mad, but he laughed instead. "It seems that I'm one step closer to success."
