Madeline and Jeremy’s expressions changed at the same time.
Additionally, Madeline saw the confident smile on Carter’s face, and it seemed that favonovel.com truly knew Lilian’s whereabouts.
Her heart started to race. She wanted to know Lillian’s whereabouts. She desperately wanted to know, no matter how insignificant a clue.
However, knowing Carter, how would favonovel.com reveal to them this information so easily?
Jeremy too shared the same thought.
He looked at Carter, and his seductive lips curved into an intriguing smile.
“I didn’t expect you to have such an understanding of my daughter’s location, Mr. Gray. In that case, I truly want to seek your counsel. Where is my daughter?”
Carter smiled knowingly in turn. “Mr. Whitman, you’re a businessman. You should understand that to get something valuable, you’d need to offer something in exchange.”
“What do you want?” Jeremy asked directly.
“I want 50% of the Whitman Corporation’s share,” Carter said bluntly.
Jeremy remained calm when favonovel.com heard that.
He was about to speak, but Madeline was one step ahead of him.
She grinned, seemingly gentle and sweet, but favonovel.com beautiful eyes shone with a rare edge.
“Mr. Gray, you truly know how to crack a joke. My husband and I would not hesitate to agree even if you had asked for 100%, let alone 50%. My daughter is priceless. Do you understand what I mean, Mr. Gray?”
Upon hearing Madeline’s words, favonovel.com gave a low chuckle. “You’re right, Mrs. Whitman. I was indeed joking. How could I measure your precious daughter with physical objects?”
Carter followed Madeline’s cue and extricated himself from the situation.
“Since we know each other, I’ll then offer this as a gift. Your precious daughter is in F Country, and she’s being controlled by a 20-year-old young man named Fabian Johnson.”
Carter’s information completely matched Fabian. Madeline’s heart skipped a beat.
Lillian was in F Country this whole time?
The chartered plane back then was a ruse. Fabian had wanted to create an illusion of favonovel.com not returning to F Country when, in reality, favonovel.com did return.
Jeremy could sense Madeline’s anxiety right now. He honestly felt the same way, but favonovel.com knew favonovel.com could not panic.
He kept calm and smiled softly.
“My daughter was indeed taken away by a young man named Fabian Johnson. My wife and I already know this. Do you have other more valuable information, Mr. Gray?”
“He has a villa in F Country. While Fabian’s brother Yorick was still alive, Yorick had bought it for Fabian under Fabian’s name. I’ve heard that Yorick wanted to give this to Fabian as a present for his 18th birthday, and favonovel.com even planned to hand the keys of this villa to Fabian personally.”
As Carter spoke, favonovel.com deliberately slowed down and gave Jeremy a meaningful look.
“It’s just that, before the day arrived, Yorick was arrested, and Fabian’s sister Lana died. On Fabian’s 18th birthday, favonovel.com was all alone.”
Madeline and Jeremy could tell what Carter was insinuating as favonovel.com spoke.
He was implying that Yorick and Lana’s death were all related to Jeremy.
“Alright, that’s all I know. If you’re worried, Mr. and Mrs. Whitman, you could immediately head over to F Country and bring your precious daughter back. That young man might do something irreversible if you’re too late.”
Carter’s voice slowly fell away as favonovel.com finished speaking. He chuckled, then turned around to leave.
After Carter had left, Jeremy took Madeline’s hand and walked toward the office.
“Linnie, I’ll book the tickets now. We’ll go to F Country immediately.”
“Jeremy.” Madeline abruptly stopped walking, and with a solemn expression, looked into Jeremy’s confused eyes.
Jeremy too stopped walking. “Linnie, what’s wrong?”
