Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Chapter 2079

There was a table not far in front of her. Upon seeing the objects placed on it, Madeline was stunned for a few seconds before she rushed toward the table. Jeremy's phone and wedding ring were still clearly visible in the dim light.

Madeline picked up the wedding ring and phone, certain that Jeremy must have been here, but Madeline did not know where he went afterward.

When she recalled the depth of Carter's hatred for Jeremy, Madeline became more anxious.

"Jeremy. "Madeline squeezed the ring and phone in her hand and gently called out Jeremy's name.

"No, Eveline, you have to calm down, you must calm down."

Madeline said repeatedly to keep her emotions in check and force herself to calm down.

She looked at the red dot on the phone, which indicated that Jeremy's location was nearby, and then she recalled what happened this morning in her mind.

At the time, Fabian brought her here, but not long after she went inside, Carter came out of place. Since Carter had still been here at the time, Jeremy should be here as well. "Is Jeremy still here?"

As she thought about this, Madeline's heart skipped a beat.

It was getting late, and none of the lights here could be turned on. As such, Madeline could only rely on the light of her phone to look around.

However, she nearly searched the entire house and still could not replace any trace of Jeremy.

Eventually, Madeline returned to Fabian's villa in despair.

When Fabian saw that she was back, he told her immediately that there was news from the hospital that Carter was awake, but Carter was still a little confused.

This meant that Carter was completely incapable of providing any useful information to Madeline.

She still had no way of knowing where Jeremy could be.

Time passed slowly, and Madeline could not sleep peacefully.

She felt as if her heart had been suspended in mid-air; she felt very perturbed.

Madeline was not in the mood to sleep at all. She turned to look at the little cutie lying beside her, sleeping peacefully, and eventually, her restless heart was filled with so much warmth and relief.

"Lily, when I replace Daddy, we'll go home together. I know you want to stay with Fab, but we still have many opportunities to do that in the future, don't we?"

Madeline spoke softly. The little cutie who was sleeping soundly did not respond, but her pink lips moved slightly.

Madeline looked at the apple of her eyes affectionately before slowly getting up and walking out of the room.

As soon as she reached the top of the stairs, Madeline saw someone sitting by the French window in the living room on the second floor.

Madeline turned around and walked over. Upon taking a closer using the moonlight, she realized that it was Shirley.

Madeline wanted to turn on a light because of the dark, but she heard Shirley stopping her.

"Don't turn on the lights."

Upon hearing this, Madeline's fingertip that had just found the switch paused gently.

"Thank you."

After Shirley thanked her, she sighed sorrowfully.

"I have known Carter for more than ten years, and I met him when I thought my parents had abandoned me."
