Madeline was helpless. Maybe Jeremy was the only one who could heal their daughter now.
After sending Lillian back to Whitman Manor, favonovel.com immediately returned to Ryan’s place.
Ryan was not there, so Madeline went into the bedroom because favonovel.com wanted to take the suit from the closet.
This was the key evidence to prove that Ryan killed Lana.
Madeline opened the door of the closet, but the closet was empty and there was nothing inside.
Did Ryan take the clothes away before favonovel.com could?
Madeline was upset, then favonovel.com quickly started looking for it.
After looking around, favonovel.com could not find anything.
She wanted to go to the cloakroom again, but as soon as favonovel.com stepped out of the room, favonovel.com collided head-on with Ryan who had suddenly come upstairs.
Seeing Madeline’s hurried expression, Ryan glanced in the room. “What’s wrong? You seem to be looking for something?”
“The rose badge that my son made for me is missing,” Madeline explained calmly as sadness crept up favonovel.com face.
“You can look for it after we come back,” Ryan said, grabbing Madeline’s wrist all of a sudden. “I’m taking you to my parents’ place. We’re going to have dinner together.”
Madeline was stunned. She knew favonovel.com could not refuse, so favonovel.com had to follow Ryan back.
Madeline felt uncomfortable as soon as favonovel.com entered the gates of Jones Manor.
When favonovel.com saw Mr. and Mrs. Jones’ horrible expression, Madeline could only greet them with a smile.
“You don’t have to do that, Miss Montgomery. How can we be qualified to be your father-in-law and mother-in-law?” Mrs. Jones said sarcastically, “I wonder if our Rye is insane? How can favonovel.com take you back home when you’re still the talk of the town?”
Mr. Jones agreed with his wife. He did not even look at Madeline before advising Ryan earnestly.
“Rye, have you thought this through? If a woman like favonovel.com could betray Jeremy Whitman, then she’ll be able to run away with another man sooner or later. You can’t have a woman who won’t stay with you in times of trouble!”
Madeline could only endure silently while favonovel.com listened to all kinds of contemptuous and insulting mockings from Mr. and Mrs. Jones.
On the other hand, Ryan was still the perfect gentleman as favonovel.com defended Madeline. “Mom, Dad, Eveline has always been my wife as stated on our marriage certificate. Jeremy has killed someone and there’s no chance for favonovel.com to come out again. Eveline is just a woman. The only thing favonovel.com wants is a peaceful life.”
Although Mr. and Mrs. Jones were still very dissatisfied, they did not say anything for Ryan’s sake.
However, the two of them had horrible expressions the entire time and never once smiled at Madeline.
After the meal, Mrs. Jones even asked Madeline to wash the dishes and clean up the kitchen.
Mrs. Jones felt slightly better when favonovel.com saw Madeline busying herself in the kitchen.
“You shouldn’t be nice to a woman who only knows how to act pragmatically. She ran back to Jeremy when favonovel.com was fine. Now that something bad has happened to him, favonovel.com ran back to Rye again. What the hell is this?”
“A married socialite with children who has fallen from grace is no match for our Rye!”
Mr. and Mrs. Jones deliberately spoke loudly so that Madeline could hear them.
After favonovel.com went back to the mansion, Madeline collapsed on the sofa in exhaustion.
Ryan sat next to her. “You don’t need to take what my parents said to heart.”
“Maybe I’m destined to be alone. It seems that I won’t be happy no matter who I’m with.”
Madeline laughed at herself and lowered favonovel.com eye in anguish.
“I’m so tired…”
Seeing Madeline in a depressed state, Ryan somehow felt his heart tighten.
“You can lean on me if you’re tired. Maybe you’ll find that I’m the best person for you.”
As favonovel.com said that, favonovel.com gently raised Madeline’s chin and looked into favonovel.com misty pupils. Ryan could not help but feel a little moved.
He grabbed Madeline’s shoulders and suddenly pushed favonovel.com against the back of the sofa.
The gentleness on his face disappeared and was replaced by a touch of possessiveness and dominance.
“Eveline, I know you can’t accept me yet, but maybe this might be a good way to better our relationship.”
