Chapter 1578

He fantasized about Madeline coming back to shore. After all, it had been two hours, so if she was still in the river, then she would have been…

No.

Jeremy interrupted his overthinking. However, when he looked at the endless river connected to the sea, he did not know what he was supposed to do.

He stood in the middle of the rain in midwinter and looked at the river in front of him while calling out Madeline’s name in his heart.

Karen was waiting for news at home. The thing she longed for the most right now was Jeremy coming home with Madeline, but it was starting to get dark and Jeremy was still not home yet.

Karen kept waiting, and unbeknownst to her, it was the next day.

When she was about to go look for Jeremy to ask about Madeline’s situation, she received a strange call.

She was worried that she would miss any news about Madeline, so she picked up the phone. However, the person on the other side said that they were a reporter.

Karen was not in the mood to talk to the reporter, so she wanted to hang up. However, she then heard the reporter saying, “Are there any problems with Mr. and Mrs. Whitman’s relationship? Last night, someone got pictures of Mrs. Whitman going to the club with a few strange men.”

“What nonsense are you spewing? My daughter-in-law and son are extremely close! Stop talking rubbish!” Karen warned unhappily before hanging up.

However, after a few seconds, someone called again.

This time, it was another reporter from another media agency. They were asking about the same thing as the reporter before.

Karen hung up in annoyance. However, after a while, there were more similar calls regarding this, so she just switched off her phone.

Although, when she thought about what they had said, Karen found it more and more strange.

While she was pondering, she heard the servant calling out ‘young master’ respectfully.

Karen lifted her head to see Jeremy. She ran over hurriedly to look behind Jeremy, but she saw nothing.

“Where’s Eveline? Did you not find her?” Karen asked frantically.

Jeremy’s body was covered with a biting cold aura. Even though the sun was out, his wet clothes were still not dry. Plus, he looked very haggardly and exhausted right now.

He did not answer Karen before he went straight to the stairs.

“Jeremy, Jeremy, say something. Is Eveline…”

“My fate with Linnie will not be so short-lived. She isn’t.”

“…”

Karen listened to Jeremy with a confused look on her face. She stood motionless and had nothing to say anymore.

On the other side, Carter had also asked some people to look around. However, they could not find anything about Madeline. On the contrary, he saw a trending tweet online about Eveline, the young madam of the number one wealthiest family in Glendale—the Whitmans. Last night, she was seen having fun with a few men in the club.

After he opened the picture on the viral tweet, the face of the woman in the picture did belong to Eveline.

Camille saw what was going on online as well. She immediately found Carter and pointed at the picture. “These two men in the picture were the ones who brought her away yesterday. She had obviously been forced into the car yesterday, but why was she suddenly drinking and having fun with them? Fancy that, and we were so worried about her too!”

Carter carefully looked at those pictures after he heard Camille’s complaints. Then, he even found a video that was about ten seconds long.

After watching, he came up with a conclusion. “It’s not her.”

Camille was surprised. “What? The woman in the picture is not her? The woman in the picture is really Jeremy’s wife?”

Carter nodded seemingly. Then, his heart started feeling anxious.

Naomi saw the photos of her online. She was very satisfied as she smoked a cigarette and continued to bill and coo with the strange man next to her.

Since she could not become Eveline, then she would destroy her reputation and completely ruin her name.

She kept telling the media where Eveline would go hang out next. Then, she would use this face to hang out with other men so that the reporters could take some indecent shots to put online.

After less than a day, Eveline’s name was trending along with a lot of different labels.

Naomi was thrilled when she saw the stocks of Whitman Corporation and Montgomery Enterprise getting affected by this.

She dressed up and told the media which nightclub Eveline would go to next before leaving her hotel room.

However, when she opened the door, she saw someone standing there much to her surprise.
