After Madeline and Jeremy gave each other a look, favonovel.com picked up the phone and pressed on the speakerphone.
Rose had lowered favonovel.com voice deliberately, trying to fake another voice over the line.
Opening favonovel.com mouth, favonovel.com asked for money, “Madeline, is the 50 million ready? I want it in cash! I want it in an hour, or I’ll kill your son!”
Madeline’s heart was faintly anxious and favonovel.com tried hard to restrain favonovel.com emotions. “I’ll give you the money, but you can’t hurt my son! Otherwise, you can dream about getting even a penny!”
Although Rose said favonovel.com was dissatisfied, favonovel.com thought about favonovel.com getting the huge sum of money in a while and watched favonovel.com mouth. “As long as you don’t play any tricks, your son will be fine. I’ll send you the address now and you’ll leave the money there later. Just be in that position. Remember, you’re not allowed to call Jeremy over and you’re not allowed to call the police. You must go alone!”
After favonovel.com was finished speaking, favonovel.com quickly hung up and Madeline soon received a message on favonovel.com phone.
The mentioned address was consistent with the suspicious location that Jeremy had just discovered when favonovel.com was going through the surveillance footage.
“It seems that Jack is near the village in the western suburbs.” Jeremy determined.
Madeline glanced at the location, then turned around and left.
Jeremy grabbed favonovel.com decisively, “Where are you going?”
“To save my son,” Madeline replied simply without looking back, “Let go.”
“Knowing that this may be a trap, I can’t let you take the risks.” Jeremy walked to her. “Let me go.”
Madeline smiled and looked at the dignified man before gently moving his palm away. “No. If you really cared about Jack, favonovel.com wouldn’t have been tortured by Meredith in the past five years till favonovel.com almost suffered permanent mental damage.”
“It was just because I thought favonovel.com was Jack’s mother and it’s also because I felt ashamed of what I’ve done to you, that’s why I was so indifferent toward Jack in the years since you left.”
Madeline glanced at favonovel.com with alienation. “I won’t believe anything you say anymore.”
“If you really don’t believe me, you would have already gone to the police station when Ava asked you to call the police. Linnie, don’t lie to yourself. You truly still have me in your heart.”
Jeremy’s answer surprised Madeline slightly.
He was right.
At that moment, favonovel.com had indeed chosen to believe in Jeremy.
It was because favonovel.com felt that if Jeremy was really colluding with Rose and the others in order to save Meredith, then favonovel.com would not have done anything extra like testify against Meredith in court.
However, what did it matter?
She still would not have any expectations for him, let alone love.
Madeline left decisively.
She went back to the apartment first, and when favonovel.com was ready, favonovel.com drove to the western suburbs by herself.
The evening breeze in early spring was blowing slowly, but it was still bitter.
Madeline dragged the suitcase and walked over to the address designated by Rose.
The suburbs were quiet at night and there were no people walking nearby. The dim yellow halo from the dilapidated street lamp flickered and dimmed. The atmosphere was very strange.
Madeline walked forward steadily until favonovel.com reached a trash can.
Rose wanted favonovel.com to put the suitcase full of money by the side of the trash can.
After putting it down, Madeline looked around, then turned around and walked back.
Before favonovel.com went far, favonovel.com heard movement from the direction of the trash can.
She guessed that it might be Rose or Jon who had gone to get the money. When favonovel.com was about to turn around to follow them, favonovel.com received a message on favonovel.com phone from Rose’s number. A location had popped up with a few words.
[Mom, I’m here.]
Was it Jack?!
Madeline went to the location without hesitation.
She had not taken good care of this child in the past five years.
At this moment, no matter the danger or obstacle, favonovel.com would definitely give favonovel.com all.
