Chapter 1376
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Madeline could not wrap her head around the new information. Plus, she also remembered the woman who picked up Adamâs phone just now.
âAdam, do you have a girlfriend now?â Madeline probed.
After she said that, Madeline saw Adam slightly taken aback. On the other hand, Jeremy also looked at Adam curiously.
âLinnie, why did you ask that?â
âItâs nothing. When I called Adam just now, a woman picked up his phone and I think I know that voice from somewhere,â Madeline explained with a smile. She looked extremely calm right now. âAdam, is that woman someone we know?â
âNo, sheâs not.â Adam quickly denied it but then, he admitted a little, âHowever, sheâs indeed my girlfriend.â
He said and looked at the time. âI have to go now. My girlfriend is timid and feels unsafe being home alone at night.â
Adam said before turning around to leave.
After Madeline walked him to the door, she quickly went back to the room.
She took a towel to wipe the sweat away from Jeremyâs forehead. She had some fears in her beautiful eyes.
âJeremy, what happened between you and Adam? Why do you trust him so much?â
âIt seemed that he was forced to stay with Ryan due to some unknown reasons,â explained Jeremy.
Then, he held Madelineâs hand as he looked passionately and gently into her eyes. âActually, he has never hurt us. Back when you were carrying Jack and was locked up while you were sick, the medicine he asked Daniel to give you was not part of an experiment.â
Madeline widened her beautiful eyes and was even more confused. âWhat do you mean?â
âHe was sincerely trying to help us this entire time. However, for some unknown reasons, he had to pretend himself lest others knew his true intention,â Jeremy explained.
Madeline fell into deep thought. She recalled that Adam had not hurt her once when she was imprisoned and hurt by Ryan.
Every time she was hurt, he would appear almost immediately to treat her. Howeverâ¦
âNo, he injected me with a lot of things before. He even told me that those were the reagents that will wipe away my memories.â
âHe was lying to Ryan. He was only injecting you with nutrient injections.â
âNutrient injections?â
Madeline was even more taken aback now.
âPlus, when I was hurt by Ryan and was going into shock from loss of blood, he was the one who saved me. Then, you got hurt and I couldnât find you. I was on the brink of an emotional breakdown and he was the one who messaged me to tell me that youâre fine. In the end, heâs also the one who told me where Ryan locked you up, so thatâs how I finally saved you.â
She did not expect Adam to have done so much for them. Madeline was in disbelief.
However, putting the other matters aside, Madeline seemed to have made an associative connection with Adamâs girlfriend.
The womanâs voice from just now sounded so familiar.
Plus, Adamâs reaction just now was so strange.
He looked like he was dodging the question.
Jeremy asked in concern when he saw Madeline lost in thought, âLinnie, what are you thinking about?â
Madeline did not hide from Jeremy and said, âJeremy, do you know whose voice I heard on the phone just now?â
âWho?â
âCathy,â Madeline answered definitively, âIâm sure that it was Cathyâs voice. Jeremy, Cathy might still be alive. However, I canât imagine what kind of relationship Cathy would have with Adam.â
However, Jeremy suddenly remembered something. âCould it be because of that timeâ¦â
