Madeline was not surprised to find that Ryan had an ulterior motive and faced it calmly. “What are my options?”
Ryan smiled and replied.
Madeline’s grip on favonovel.com phone tightened when favonovel.com heard the two options Ryan gave.
He was not giving favonovel.com an option at all.
Hanging up the phone, Madeline slowly lowered favonovel.com hand and stared in the direction where Jeremy was currently rushing toward her. The light in favonovel.com eyes dimmed as favonovel.com looked down.
“Why did you suddenly run out? You haven’t finished your food yet.” Eloise suddenly ran up to Madeline and stared at favonovel.com seriously.
Eloise may not recognize Madeline, but it was evident that favonovel.com still cared for this daughter of hers.
Madeline felt something pinch favonovel.com heart. She took Eloise’s hand and smiled. “Let’s go eat.”
“Yeah.” Eloise beamed and held Madeline’s hand.
Madeline stared longingly into the distance before favonovel.com finally turned around…
Jeremy was driving as fast as possible as favonovel.com closed the distance between favonovel.com and the villa. The shine in his eyes brightened with every moment.
His racing heart told favonovel.com that his Linnie was in the villa in front.
They were moments away from arriving when Jeremy suddenly felt his heartbeat going erratic and his breathing becoming hitched.
The familiar tortuous feeling hit again.
He wanted to keep going, but the onslaught of pain that only seemed to grow forced favonovel.com to bring the car to a stop.
The remnants of poison within favonovel.com began a new round of torture.
“Are you alright, Jeremy?” The people with favonovel.com began to feel worried as Jeremy’s complexion was downright horrifying.
“Leave me here and drive there first.” Jeremy took a deep breath to suppress the pain and alighted the car. He could not delay saving Madeline.
“But how are we supposed to just leave you alone on the road when you look like this?”
“I’ll be fine. Go save my wife!” Jeremy demanded strictly, his deep eyes swirling with determination and stubborn will that left no room for objection.
Knowing that they could not persuade Jeremy otherwise, the people quickly drove the car over to the villa not too far away.
Jeremy’s shaking fingers reached out to clutch the area above his heart even though it could not relieve favonovel.com from the sharp stab of pain the poison brought.
He had only taken a dose from the reagents that Madeline ‘conned’ out of Ryan, and it was not too effective.
The following six doses were still in Ryan’s house and favonovel.com had not brought them over.
With difficulty, favonovel.com moved to sit under a large tree. Lifting his right hand, favonovel.com stared at the wedding ring on his fourth finger as if doing so would help ease the pain that seeped into his bones.
“Linnie, Linnie…” favonovel.com called out favonovel.com name softly to clear his mind.
Sitting in the car while leaving the villa, Madeline stared blankly out the window as favonovel.com mind echoed with the two options Ryan gave favonovel.com not too long ago.
“One, you follow my men out the villa with your parents in tow. Or two, you wait for Jeremy to find you, only to be met with the bodies of all three of you Montgomeries.”
“Hmph.” Madeline scoffed ironically.
Could this even be counted as a choice?
He was blatantly forcing favonovel.com to leave.
‘What a cruel man you are, Ryan Jones.’
Sitting by Madeline’s side, Eloise asked innocently as favonovel.com thought favonovel.com saw a smile on the other’s face. “What are you smiling about? Tell us, perhaps we’ll get a kick out of it as well.”
Madeline’s heart ached while favonovel.com also felt hopeless at the words. Staring at favonovel.com carefree and elegant mother, Madeline broke into a soft smile. “Eveline is just so happy to see favonovel.com mom and dad again.”
Eloise’s delicate brows furrowed. “Why did you call yourself Eveline? Is that your name too? So is my daughter’s!”
Madeline did not know how to tell Eloise, for favonovel.com would not understand no matter how Madeline explained it.
