Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Chapter 2030

The door of the apartment was locked from the outside. She could not even open the door, so how could she help Lillian leave?

Shirley sighed regretfully and turned to see Lillian blinking and looking at her curiously.

She looked at Lillian, and with a gentle smile, she said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Lily. I can't think of a way to send you home for the time being." Lillian understood what Shirley meant, and she pressed her lovely cherry blossom pink lips together into a sweet smile. She did not blame Shirley at all. "By the way, Lily, do you remember your parents' phone numbers? I can call your parents."

Shirley asked, suddenly recalling the card Lillian had given her earlier.

The contact information of Lillian's family member was on that card.

When she remembered that Carter had thrown the card into the trash last night, Shirley immediately turned around and went to the trash can.

Unbothered by the filth, Shirley reached her hand in and rummaged through the trash can. However, she could not replace the card.

Sure enough, he had gotten rid of it long ago.

Carter was so meticulous, so how could he not already know what she would think?

Shirley reluctantly put down the trash can, and at this moment, Lillian handed Shirley a small note.

Puzzled, Shirley took the note in her hand and saw a phone number written on it.

Shirley suddenly showed a surprised smile. "Lily, you are awesome! "

Lillian curled her adorable lips and smiled, revealing her sweet dimple.

In fact, it was not that Lilian remembered Jeremy and Madeline's numbers; the phone number on the paper belonged to Fabian.

This was the number Fabian asked Lillian to memorize some time ago.

He was afraid that one day, Lillian might go missing and lose her card. Considering that Lilian could not speak, if that happened, the number she memorized in her head would be useful. Shirley had no cell phone initially, but then Carter gave her one. However, she also knew that she definitely could not replace the phone at the moment.

Fortunately, however, this apartment had a landline!

Shirley was worried that Carter had tampered with the landline too. She picked up the phone in a panic, and unexpectedly, she found that there was nothing wrong with the landline!

At this moment, Fabian received a call.

It was his good friend Evan who called him.

Evan told Fabian on the phone that a man named Carter had just met with him and that they had discussed some things.

Moreover, he just heard that Fabian was also looking for a person named Carter these two days. Therefore, he wondered if this Carter was the one Fabian was looking for, and that was why he called. Upon hearing Evan's description, Fabian was certain that the person Evan had just met with was Carter, so Fabian rushed over instantly.

As he drove on the road, his phone rang again, but it was from an unfamiliar landline number.

He picked it up without hesitation, then an unfamiliar woman's voice came from the other end, and she sounded very anxious.

"Are you Lillian's family member?"

Fabian's expression changed. "I am. Who is this?"

"Lillian is with me now. Please come over right now to pick her up because she might be in trouble if you're too late! I'm in..."

On the other end of the phone, Shirley hurriedly reported the address of the apartment.

Fabian slammed on the brake. "Who are you? Why should I believe you? Put Lily on the phone."

"She can't speak." Shirley glanced anxiously at Lillian, who was standing next to her.

"She can! " Fabian emphasized, "She can say ' Mommy' and 'Daddy'. Put her on the phone. Now. "

Shirley looked at Lillian in surprise when she heard that. She then handed the receiver to Lillian. "Lily, do you know how to talk? If you can, say 'Mommy' or 'Daddy' into the phone."

Lillian understood what Shirley was asking her to do. She took the receiver and then she heard a familiar voice from the other end of the phone.

"Lily! Is that you, Lily? This is Fab. If you hear me, please say my name!"
