Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Chapter 2060

To Carter, a smart woman like Madeline would definitely not play the game according to the rules; instead of running downstairs, she would be running upstairs to confuse him. However, this time, what Carter did not expect was that Madeline neither went up nor down.

She was now trapped behind the iron door leading into the fire escape.

Madeline's heart was racing. After listening to Carter's footsteps growing fainter and fainter upstairs, she pulled the palm on her mouth away and turned her head back suddenly.

"Shhh."

When Madeline was about to speak, the man shushed her and took Lillian away from Madeline's arms. He then took Madeline's hand with the other hand and decisively walked out of the fire escape and towards the elevator.

After Carter had walked up a few floors, he suddenly realized that something was amiss.

Madeline was carrying Lillian, so she could not have run that far.

When he ran in just now, the whole corridor was quiet, completely absent of sound. Therefore, Madeline could not have climbed the stairs while carrying her daughter.

As he thought about this, Carter quickly turned around and returned to the floor earlier.

He decisively walked behind the iron door, and he felt that there was still body temperature remaining in this narrow space.

His pupils shrank, and he sprinted to the elevator.

The moment he ran over, he saw the elevator door in front of him slowly closing. At a glance, he saw Madeline, but she was not holding Lillian in her arms; she seemed to be holding a man's hand instead.

The elevator in the hotel moved very fast. When Carter ran to the elevator, the elevator that Madeline took had already reached the first floor.

He knew that it would definitely be too late to chase them at this time.

"Eveline, you did not outsmart me this time. Instead, I was the careless one." Carter sneered in the direction of the elevator.

"Don't think that you have ensured your daughter's

safety by saving her this way. You'll come back and replace me within three days."

Carter smiled confidently before turning around and walking towards the room.

At the front entrance of the hotel.

Madeline stared at the man holding her hand without blinking. Under the sun, Jeremy's resolute and solid handsome face was truly reflected in her pupils.

It seemed that at this moment, Madeline realized that she was not dreaming.

"Jeremy, is that really you?" Madeline sighed ruefully, but at the present, she was even more puzzled. "How come? Why are you here?"

Madeline was confused, but it was so good to see him at this moment. It was amazing.

Jeremy lowered his gaze, as gentle as the spring breeze, and looked into Madeline's stunning eyes.

As she was about to say something, the little princess in his arms called out to him sweetly, "Daddy."

Jeremy turned his head and his warm gaze landed on the little girl in his arms.

"Lily, I'm here. I'll take you and Mommy home."

Lillian understood what he meant. She nodded and nestled into Jeremy's arms intimately.

"Linnie, I know you have a lot of questions, but this isn't the place for us to talk. We'll leave now."

Jeremy held Madeline's hand tightly. "Come."

As he walked forward, he called a cab at the side of the road before leading the two most important females in his life into the car.

The car drove a very long distance and arrived at the hotel near F Country Airport.

Madeline could approximately guess what Jeremy was trying to say. He was about to bring her and Lillian back home directly.

However, at this time, Madeline unconsciously thought about Fabian, and she also recalled what he said yesterday.

"Linnie, what are you thinking about?"
