Chapter 1167
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Jeremy and Fabian had not expected the manâs insane behavior.
Seeing the car instantly surrounded by fire, Jeremy and Fabian ran toward Lillian at the same time.
Jeremyâs heart was as if it was being suspended from a height of 3,000 feet. His eyes were red when he looked at the child who had stayed in place because of his coldness.
It was only a few steps away, but it was as if they were separated by thousands of mountains and rivers.
Jeremy hurried over, but suddenly, the car exploded violently.
âLillian!â Fabian yelled hysterically.
Lillianâs petite body went flying from the explosive air current. Jeremy was enraged as he rushed to catch Lillian who was about to fall to the ground.
âLillian!â
He took the child into his arms.
âLillian! Lillian!â
The little girl blinked her big round eyes weakly. Looking at the man in front of her, her little mouth moved.
âDaddy.â
Although no sound came from the little girlâs mouth, Jeremy saw it. She was calling him âDaddyâ.
Jeremyâs vision went blurry in an instant, and the little girl closed her eyes. She finally slumped into his arms and fainted.
âLillian, Lillian!â
Jeremy carried the child, his heartbeat in a flurry, but when he touched the childâs back, he felt a stickiness. He raised his hand and saw the bright red blood that his eyes turned red.
âLillian!â
Jeremyâs tears suddenly gushed out of his eyes.
Fabian also rushed over, his eyes hot with tears. âLillian! Please be okay! You promised me that youâll be my girlfriend when you grow up, Lillian!â
Jeremy did not bother himself with what Fabian was saying at this moment. He only ordered in a growl, âGo and get the car, hurry up!â
He roared anxiously, looking at the pale princess in his arms. His heart was burning with anxiety.
âLillian, Daddyâs little princess, I was wrong.
âYou must be good and give Daddy a chance to admit his mistake.â
â¦
It was getting late, and Madeline was sitting in Ryanâs car. She was holding her phone while waiting for news from Jeremy.
She did not know if Jeremy had successfully found Lillian or not, but her heartbeat at this moment was inexplicably uneasy.
Madeline decided to call to ask, but as soon as she unlocked her phone, she heard Ryanâs voice drifting over.
âYouâre not allowed to bring any communication equipment to where youâre going next. You should turn off your phone now.â
Madeline glanced at Ryan. Not wanting to argue, she quickly typed out two sentences and sent the message out before switching her phone off.
âHow long will it take? Where are the detoxification reagents?â Madeline asked impatiently.
Ryan, on the other hand, was leisurely. âBefore you reach your destination, you must take a nap.â
Madeline did not understand the meaning of Ryanâs words, but then she felt a cool touch from the air-
conditioning vent.
Within a few seconds, Madeline felt the sky spinning around her eyes.
This similar feeling was exactly the same as before when she had fainted in the hotel.
Madeline frowned. She stretched out her hand and grabbed Ryanâs arm abruptly. âRyan, youâ¦â
After saying just a few words, Madeline immediately lost consciousness.
Ryan looked at Madeline who had fallen asleep, then turned the steering wheel decisively. Turning the car around, he drove back.
Madeline did not know how long she had slept until she heard someone calling her name.
