Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Chapter 454

Chapter 454

It had been five years and this was the first time Jeremy felt that Jackson's voice sounded so nice when he was calling him daddy.

He walked over to Jackson and squatted. He looked at this small face with a gentle gaze. Perhaps it was a psychological effect, but at this moment, he felt that this child in front of him looked more and more like Madeline.

"Jack," he suppressed the emotions in his heart and called out his name gently.

Jackson nodded. "Daddy, when can I go home? I miss Mommy. Not my mommy but Vera."

Jackson emphasized.

Jeremy felt a tightness in his heart. "Jack, Vera is your mommy. You only have one mommy. Remember that."

"I remember." Jackson nodded. He waved the item in his hand. "I'm going to finish this bunny soon. After I'm done, I'll give it to Mommy to protect her."

The little guy started introducing his gadget.

Jeremy finally understood that it was a mini self-defense device.

He was surprised that the five-year-old kid would have such a talent. However, when he thought about the microchipped bracelet he gave to Madeline, he felt that this child might have a gift. Eloise walked out of the house with some tea and snacks. When she saw Jeremy, she was surprised.

"Mr. Whitman, when did you get here? Are you here to take Jack home?"

Jeremy looked at Eloise who was walking toward him and got up slowly.

"Granny," Jackson greeted Eloise cheerfully. His childish voice had a hint of joy that he never had before.

Jeremy knew that it was all thanks to Madeline that Jackson had this transformation.

This child was brought into the dark by Meredith. Fortunately, his birth mother Madeline brought him back to the sun.

"You're such a good boy, Jack." Eloise reached out a hand to caress Jackson's hair. Then, she sighed in reluctance.

"Even though Meredith's behavior was extremely despicable and Sean and I hate her to the bone, Jack is innocent. Plus, Jack is obedient and sensible. We truly love this child and we genuinely treat him like he's our biological grandson."

Eloise pleaded in embarrassment.

"Mr. Whitman, if you don't have time to take care of Jack, Sean and I are more than happy to take care of him. Also, I hope that you'll let us continue taking care of him."

Jeremy smiled in high spirits. "You don't have to treat him like he's your biological grandson."

"What?" Eloise was taken aback as her face darkened slightly. "Mr. Whitman, are you saying that you don't want us to see Jack anymore? Why? Sean and I genuinely love Jack, plus..."

"You don't have to be so emotional. That's not what I meant." Jeremy interrupted in a gentle tone.

Eloise was shocked. Now, she was even more puzzled. "Then, what are you saying, Mr. Whitman?" "I'm saying that Jack is truly your biological grandson."

"..." Eloise was utterly stunned. "W-What? Jack is my biological grandson? H-How is that possible?"

Jeremy nodded, and there was a self-mocking smile on his face. "Jack isn't Meredith's child. He's Maddie's son."

"What?" Eloise was surprised and elated. She did not know whether to laugh or cry.

When she knew that Madeline was her daughter, she was already heartbroken. Since Madeline was dead, as her mother, she did not have anything to hope for anymore.

However, if she still had a living grandson, her broken heart would be slightly healed.

"Also, I think you might not know this," Jeremy said with gentle eyes, "Maddie is still alive."

"Vera is Maddie."
