Jeremy’s comment comforted Madeline.
She was no longer feeling anxious, but favonovel.com was more puzzled.
When favonovel.com was still trying to decipher what Jeremy was trying to say, the police came bursting into the house to look for Jeremy.
“Mr. Whitman, you’re found to be related to a murder case. Please follow us back to the police station for further investigation.” The police officer who led the group had a serious look on his face. As favonovel.com explained, favonovel.com tried to place the handcuffs over Jeremy’s hands.
“I can follow you guys back for further investigation, but since there’s no evidence to prove me guilty, no one is allowed to use such a method to bring me away.” Jeremy looked at the handcuffs, and with much cooperation given, favonovel.com walked to the doorway on his own accord.
“Jeremy!” Madeline caught up to him, and so did Jackson as well as Lillian.
Jeremy’s footsteps came to a halt when favonovel.com saw the two little kids catching up to him.
He smiled gently at Madeline. “Linnie, wait for me at home with the kids. I’ll be back safe and sound.”
Madeline’s eyes were all teary when favonovel.com saw his passionate gaze. She nodded.
“Alright, I’ll be waiting for your return.”
Jeremy replied with another smile. He turned around to look at Lillian whose eyes were big as favonovel.com was puzzled. Lillian was staring at favonovel.com as favonovel.com gave favonovel.com a smile.
‘Lillian, I’ll never let anything happen to me. I still have to take care of you for a long time…’
It was not the first time Jeremy made an appearance at the police station.
He was calm when dealing with the so-called investigation.
“Mr. Whitman, everyone is saying that you came out from the victim’s room. How are you going to explain that?” an officer questioned.
“I have nothing to explain. I had indeed entered favonovel.com room,” Jeremy answered honestly with a calm tone, “But when I entered favonovel.com room, favonovel.com was already dead.”
The policeman nodded and continued questioning. “Previously, you and Lana were a couple, am I right?”
That question made Jeremy frown as favonovel.com replied coldly, “Except for my wife, Eveline, there has never been a second woman in my life.”
“But previously, you and Lana—”
“That was just a mission given to me, as an undercover agent, by Interpol. Regarding this, you guys will know everything if you go and ask Interpol yourself.” Jeremy cut favonovel.com short. He could not tolerate hearing others saying that favonovel.com and Lana were a couple.
The policeman no longer touched on that issue, but suddenly emphasized, “According to what we know, Lana had once made your family, especially your daughter, endure terrible torture. As such, you and your wife, Eveline, hate this woman very much.
“Also, someone else came to report that they once saw your wife grabbing Lana’s neck with the intention to kill Lana. You and your wife both have very strong motives for killing Lana.”
“Don’t get my wife involved in this. She’d never kill anyone,” Jeremy emphasized, feeling cross.
“Your wife would never kill others, so you took the initiative to do so.” The police officer made a pose as if favonovel.com was determined to charge favonovel.com with the crime.
Jeremy’s gaze darkened. “Arrest me if you have the proof. Just stop getting my wife involved in this case.”
The officers no longer dared to use that method to interrogate Jeremy after seeing his stony expression.
…
Madeline could not calm herself and quietly followed Jeremy to the police station.
She sat in the car where favonovel.com kept on waiting. However, an hour had passed and Jeremy was still not out yet.
She refreshed favonovel.com news feed. There was a piece of news that stated Jeremy and Lana used to be a couple. It said that Lana had gone against Madeline just to get Jeremy’s heart and even bullied Madeline’s kid.
‘The part about the bullying is true, but the first part is fabricated.’
Madeline was anxious, and just when favonovel.com thought of getting out of the car to get some fresh air, favonovel.com saw Ryan coming out from the police station.
A sudden thought came to favonovel.com as favonovel.com picked up favonovel.com pace. “Ryan.”
Ryan stopped and saw Madeline running to him, catching favonovel.com by surprise.
However, favonovel.com could guess Madeline’s reason for appearing here. Ryan placed one of his hands into his pocket and put on a faint smile. “Are you waiting for Jeremy? I think you’re better off leaving. He won’t be able to leave this place.”
