Chapter 639

Jeremy took off the cloth that covered Madeline’s eyes the same time she asked her question.

Just as she felt the light, Jeremy’s worried face was also reflected in Madeline’s eyes.

‘It really is him.’

Madeline muttered silently in her heart, and somehow, a feeling of security flowed through her heart.

“Linnie, how are you? Are you hurt?” Jeremy asked with distress as he quickly untied the rope that bound her hands and feet.

Madeline shook her head. She was about to say something when she saw that the back of Jeremy’s right hand was full of blood.

She glanced at the broken glass window and suddenly realized that he had actually smashed the window with his fist.

Seeing that Madeline did not answer him, Jeremy asked again while feeling more worried.

“Linnie, who brought you here? Did that person hurt you?”

Madeline came back to her senses. “It was a man. I think I’ve seen him somewhere before, but I can’t recall it now.”

She was about to stand up as she said this, but her legs suddenly went weak and she twisted her ankle.

Jeremy quickly hugged her waist and held her in his arms. “Linnie.”

“My ankle is twisted.” Madeline frowned.

Jeremy grabbed Madeline in his arms and hugged her while helping her to the chair at the side.

He tried to open the window, but it was so rusty that he could not open it.

“Linnie, sit down for a bit. I’ll go see if there are any other doors.”

He did not want her to go through the window like he had. There were a lot of broken shards and he was afraid that the glass would cut her skin.

He did not want to see her wounded and bleeding.

Jeremy looked around and found that although the lock to the back door was a bit rusty and could not be opened at first, as long as the lock was broken, the door could then be opened.

While looking for the tools, Jeremy asked Madeline, “Linnie, did your captor tell you anything? Tell me, maybe I’ll know who it is.”

Thinking back to what Tanner had said, they were very nasty. However, in order to know who it was, Madeline told him frankly.

“He said he’s my old friend.”

“…” Jeremy paused in his actions as he looked back at Madeline with surprised, wide eyes.

“He also said that he wanted to sleep with me seven years ago but didn’t succeed.”

After these words were uttered, Madeline observed a dark undercurrent in Jeremy’s eyes.

Madeline continued, “He also said that if he could sleep with the woman you’ve slept with, he would be as capable as you.”

Jeremy was already suppressing his anger from the last sentence, but after hearing this, his handsome face was shrouded by clouds for a moment. Blue veins burst on his forehead. The cold light in his eyes was more like ice cones. It was as if the sharp coldness was about to overflow from his eyes in the next second.

In the end, he suppressed his anger for Madeline’s sake and uttered an affirmative from his thin lips, “It’s Tanner.”

“Tanner?” Madeline repeated the name, finding it unfamiliar. “He seems to have an accomplice. That accomplice should be a woman. She hates me very much.”

The first person Jeremy thought of was Meredith, but Meredith was already dead. Besides her, which other woman was there?

Tanner and his accomplice had just returned after their discussion when they suddenly saw an expensive sports car parked in front of the factory.

He took a closer look and confirmed that it was Jeremy’s sports car.

Tanner suddenly felt angry and annoyed. He had not even f*cking sent out any news of the kidnapping and extortion, so how did Jeremy find Madeline?

How was he to extort money now? How could he repay the loan sharks without the money? If he did not pay the loan sharks, he would be hacked to death by the gang!

If Madeline was to be rescued by Jeremy now, he would die even sooner!
