Chapter 1390
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
She was squatting there and it was unknown what she had found. She was looking at it emotionally while holding it in her hands.
âI found it! Sean, come look! Itâs Eveline!â
Eloise turned back to call out to Sean. She was jumping up and down while waving a blackened family photo in her hand.
Sean walked hurriedly to Eloise and helped her up from the ground.
âEllie, get up.â
âSean, look. Itâs our Eveline.â Eloise pointed at the figure on the almost completely blurry photo.
âEveline is here.â
Madelineâs eyes welled with tears when she saw what was happening in front of her.
She walked to Eloise and grabbed her hand lightly. âMom, Eveline is here.â
Eloise looked at Madeline like she understood her but not really. Suddenly, her eyes lit up. âOh? This Eveline looks almost the same as my Eveline.â
ââ¦â
Eloise was saying that in all seriousness. That statement hurt Madelineâs heart so much.
She was the daughter who Eloise was yearning for every day, but she was treating her as someone else.
âSean, donât you think so? She looks almost the same as our Eveline.â Eloise pointed at Madeline. Her beautiful big eyes were filled with curiosity and surprise.
Sean smiled softly. âYeah, they look the same. Ellie, just treat this Eveline as our Eveline.â
âHow can I do that?â Eloise rejected sternly. âWe only have one precious daughter. Plus, this Eveline has her own parents too, right?â
After she said that, she looked at Madeline seriously.
Madeline forced back her tears sorrowfully. The reason they were here today was to help Eloise recover.
Jeremy noticed Madelineâs sadness and disappointment. As such, he held her shoulder and comforted her.
âEveline, Jeremy, what do you think we should do now? Your motherâs condition⦠Should we recreate what happened that day?â Sean was concerned.
Madeline was a little worried as well. Suddenly, she did not dare to take the risk. What if them recreating the fire caused Eloiseâs condition to worsen? What should they do then?
âDad, why donât we take Mom back to the manor?â Madeline could only get rid of this idea.
When Sean was about to answer, Eloise suddenly walked into the burned house.
âEloise, be careful,â said Sean before following her. At the same time, his phone rang. He looked at the caller ID and saw that it was from the company, so he answered it.
Madeline and Jeremy were afraid that Eloise would hurt herself in the ruins, so they followed her immediately.
However, they did not see Eloise after they went in. This gigantic building was only left with a frame after the fire and they could see everything at a glance.
The only possibility was that Eloise had gone upstairs.
âMom,â Madeline called out toward the stairs but she did not hear Eloiseâs response.
She walked up the stairs and it started creaking loudly. It was so dangerous.
âLinnie, be careful.â Jeremy held her arm anxiously. âThis is too dangerous. You should go out first. Iâll bring Mom down.â
Madeline did not want Jeremy to worry about her, so she nodded. âYou should be careful too. Dad and I will be waiting for you outside.â
âOkay.â
She nodded and let go of the manâs hand. Then, she turned around to walk out.
However, the moment Madeline got to the door, she heard a loud thud coming from behind her all of a sudden.
She stopped abruptly in her tracks and hesitated for a while before building the courage to turn around.
âJeremy!â
