Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman -
Chapter 241
Chapter 241
Ken hesitated. Then, he voiced his suspicion, saying, "Felipe's company and business have been in Glendale this whole time, but for some reason, he left to go to F Country.
"Felipe has been staying in F Country for the past three years and rarely left. According to sources, he met Vera on the plane and fell in love with her at first sight."
F Country.
Jeremy remembered that Vera was also from F Country. However, from her appearance, she was obviously not a native of F Country.
After he hung up the phone, Jeremy read through the information slowly.
Nothing about Vera's information was suspicious. However, he saw a date that he would never forget from Felipe's file.
That day three years ago, Madeline's cold body had laid in his arms. She was no longer breathing nor did she have a pulse. She had left him forever.
However, it was that day Felipe left Glendale to go to F Country.
It was evident on Felipe's entry and exit information.
Madeline died that night and Felipe left Glendale without any special reasons.
Was this a coincidence?
Jeremy woke Jackson up with this suspicion in mind. After cleaning Jackson up, he brought him to kindergarten.
Jeremy drove his car and looked at Jackson from the rearview mirror. He was silent in the backseat the entire time. Suddenly, he recalled what Madeline said to him last night, 'I suggest that you take him to see a doctor.'
Her words kept repeating in his head after she said them.
"Jackson, are you feeling unwell?" Jeremy asked.
Jackson's dark eyes shifted slightly after he heard that. He held his bag tightly with his head lowered and shook his head.
Jeremy frowned.
Jackson had never been this depressed in his memory. Back then, he would always follow behind him and call him 'Daddy'. He used to be so cheerful and loving.
However, this child stopped calling him 'Daddy' after some time. In addition to that, he started drifting further and further away from this child.
Jeremy did not ask him anything anymore. He clearly knew the answer to this question.
When he realized just how much he liked Madeline, a lot of people and things changed...
Jeremy walked Jackson into the kindergarten. However, he did not leave immediately, but rather, he parked his car at the corner.
After a while, a familiar figure walked into his vision.
He looked at the woman who looked exactly like Madeline. She was walking Lillian into the kindergarten with a gentle smile on her face.
Jeremy narrowed his eyes and imprinted that beautiful smile into his mind.
His heart started beating faster as he grabbed the steering wheel. After Madeline got into the car and drove away, he drove to the entrance of the kindergarten. Then, he got out of the car and walked in.
Even though Lillian's homeroom teacher was responsible for the older children, when she saw Jeremy, she knew he was not a stranger. Moreover, she also knew that he was Jackson's father and was a VIP in Glendale.
Thus, when she saw Jeremy at the classroom door, she approached him with a smile.
"Mr. Whitman, are you here for Jackson? He's next door."
"I'm looking for that child." Jeremy pointed at Lillian who was playing with her classmates.
The teacher looked over to where he was pointing. "You mean Lillian Whitman?"
Lillian Whitman.
That was the child's full name.
Jeremy nodded. His intense gaze was locked on Lillian's fair and adorable face. "Yes, her."
The teacher smiled when she realized what was going on. "Oh, so Lillian is also one of the Whitmans. I was wondering why she's so close with Jackson. As it turns out, they're siblings!"
Siblings.
That word penetrated Jeremy's heart.
His heart trembled, and he could not shake this complicated feeling away.
Lillian was brought out quickly. When she saw Jeremy, she smiled and displayed her dimples. "Hello, nice mister."
