Chapter 1230
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
The police understood immediately, and there were smiles on their faces. Then, they issued an order.
âSpread the news of Lillian Whitman being on the roof of Whitman Corporation all over the internet and to live stream services as well. We have to let Jeremy Witman see this so that he can come over to save his daughter!â
After Madeline heard this, something in her head clicked.
She looked at the naive little girl and clenched her fists.
Lillian did not go missing on her own. She was brought here by someone.
The reason that person did that was to make Jeremy show himself.
Madeline understood now that this was all a conspiracy.
However, she could not let anything happen to the child in front of her.
On the other hand, she did not want Jeremy to show up.
What should she do to ensure the safety of both of them now?
The more Madeline thought about this, the more she felt uncomfortable. She even started to feel slightly dizzy.
She finally noticed that her wound was bleeding again. The loss of blood was making her feel lethargic.
âLily!â
Suddenly, a frantic yell sounded behind her.
Madelineâs distracted train of thought was abruptly pulled back at the same time.
She turned around and saw Fabian running over with a worried look on his face. At this moment, the only thing in his eyes right now was Lillianâs tiny frame.
âLily!â Fabian ran over worriedly.
However, when Lillian saw Fabian, she took a step back all of a sudden.
The tiny body was facing the wind, and she looked like she was swaying a little. Madeline took a step forward while her heart leaped into her mouth. âLily!â
She yelled and grabbed Fabian, âDonât go over!â
Fabian stopped in his tracks, but he was restless.
His eyes were filled with fear and franticness. At this moment, he was worried that Lillian would fall.
He released his clenched fists and clenched them again. He repeated the same action a few times, his palms already drenched with cold sweat.
âLily, donât scare me. Can you please come down? Iâll take you for some nice food and weâll go have so much fun, okay?â
Fabian kept coaxing her, his eyes growing red from anxiety.
Madeline was shocked. She did not expect Lillian to have such an important spot in Fabianâs heart.
Perhaps Yorick and Lanaâs death had caused his heart to be empty.
Now, the only person who could heal his wounded heart was Lillian.
However, Lillian looked at Fabian and shook her head. Her eyebrows were tightly knitted together.
The little girl liked Fabian so much, but at this moment, she was rejecting him.
Madeline thought of a reason and asked quickly, âFabian, when Lily was kidnapped last time, what were you doing when the car exploded?â
Fabian was only focused on Lillian right now. When he heard Madeline asking him that, he was taken aback as he tried to remember.
What was he doing then?
âAfter what happened that day, Lily started to reject you and Jeremy. There must be a reason why sheâs like this!â Madeline asked while enduring the pain from her body that was getting weaker and weaker.
However, after she said that, she heard the policeâs agitated voice. âIs Jeremy not here yet? Heâs so inhumane. He shot his wife to escape and now heâs neglecting his daughterâs life.â
Madeline felt annoyed when she heard that. When did Jeremy have anything to do with her wound?
When she was about to clear Jeremyâs name, she saw the police planning what they were going to do next. Then, they told Madeline with a serious expression, âMrs. Whitman, Jeremy Whitman wonât show up now. Iâll ask someone to save your daughter directly. Please stand back.â
âNo!â Madeline rejected this method. âItâs too dangerous!â
âWe have professionals on our side. There wonât be any problems. Your daughter might fall at any second if we drag this on,â said the police before asking their personnel to prepare the rescue.
However, Lillian seemed to understand what was going on. She took a step back in repulsion, but there was nothing under her foot now. Her tiny body was like an angel that had lost its wings as she plummeted.
At that moment, Madelineâs heart shattered as she charged forward. âLily!â
