Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Chapter 2401

Chapter 2401

Her heart began to beat very nervously from this moment on. She was not sure if Esther had gotten out of the car here just now, or if someone would hear the sound and come out to check. Amidst her perturbed feelings and doubts, Ava vaguely heard the sound of hurried and disorientated footsteps coming from afar.

After a while, Ava sensed a tall man standing across from the wall.

"Damn, the wall of this broken house fell off," the man complained unhappily, "I think before the fish takes the bait, I might be crushed to death in this stupid house for locking someone here." The man complained again before walking back.

Ava held her breath. She poked her head out and observed the direction the man was leaving.

However, from what the man said to himself just now, Ava was able to determine that Daniel was indeed locked up here. Unexpectedly, Esther was even more extreme than Naya. Ava looked around before following behind the man.

However, after taking a few steps up the stairs, she felt that something was not right. When she was about to look back, a shadow suddenly shrouded her path in front of her.

A bone-chilling cold penetrated her back. The moment Ava recomposed herself to turn around, she felt a heavy dull pain in the back of her neck before losing consciousness.

On the other hand, Madeline was feeling uneasy. She figured that Ava might not have gone shopping to clear her mind. Instead, she might have gone after Esther. 1

Since she was worried about Ava's safety, Madeline decided to go to the Mendez family's manor to replace out what was going on. However, at this moment, Ken came into the office to report to Jeremy. "Mr. Whitman, Daniel Graham is home."

This answer from Ken surprised both Madeline and Jeremy. "By home, you mean he went home himself?" Jeremy pressed.

Ken nodded affirmatively. "I asked someone to observe the situation near Daniel's house, and the person over there told me Daniel has returned home in a taxi."

Madeline and Jeremy looked at each other in disbelief.

"I'll call and ask," Madeline called Daniel's phone again, but still, no one answered. Then, she called Ava again and again, but no one picked up either.

This worried Madeline greatly.

She did not think much about it. She just got Jeremy to go with her to Daniel's house.

Daniel had just taken a shower and was about to eat something when he heard from the servant that someone was looking for him. When he was wondering if it was Ava, he was stopped by his mother, Gina. "Dan, you haven't rested all night. Go back to your room and nap after you eat. I'll entertain the guests," Gina persuaded kindly. 1 Daniel looked toward the entrance and saw Madeline and Jeremy. They had already entered the house. "But they seem to be looking for me."

Gina was stunned when she saw that Jeremy and Madeline had come in uninvited. However, she had no choice and could only pout.

"Dan, where did you go yesterday?" Madeline asked hurriedly. "Why couldn't we call you?"

"I lost my phone when I went out yesterday. Someone might have taken it. What happened? Why do you guys look so nervous?" Daniel asked suspiciously.

"You lost your phone?" Madeline felt it was not that simple. If his phone was lost, why did she receive the extortion message, and why did Ava receive messages that were seemingly sent by Daniel? Jeremy also found it very suspicious. "You lost your phone, but where did you go last night? Why didn't you come home?"
