Chapter 2043
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
When Evan agreed, a happy and contented smile appeared slowly on Carterâs lips.
This was an unexpected gain.
He wanted to use Lillian to seek revenge on Jeremy, but now, Lillian became his most effective chess piece.
âBefore your father agrees to see me, donât even think about seeing Lillian.â
âCarter! â Fabian was a little mad.
When Carter saw Fabian getting mad, the smile on his face widened.
âWhatâs wrong? Are you angry? Be angry all you want, but this is something that you canât change. â
After Carter finished saying that with a smirk, he parted his legs to go downstairs.
After taking two steps, he turned back to look at Evan.
âIâll be waiting for your answer. I hope you can give me a satisfying answer as soon as possible.â
Evan felt that he had never met such an arrogant person before. However, he had no choice so he could only allow Carter to behave so arrogantly.
Looking at Carterâs carefree back figure, Fabian lifted his hand angrily and slammed it on the wall.
Madeline heard a thud, and she saw Fabianâs face filled with melancholy and worry.
When Evan saw Fabian so agitated, he did not waste any time.
âFab, Iâll go home right now to discuss this with my father. Wait for my news.â
After hearing this, Fabian put aside his agitation and uneasiness, and then he solemnly and seriously thanked Evan, âThank you, Evan. Youâre the only one who can save Lily now.â
âWeâre best friends, so itâll make us seem unfamiliar if you thank me. Iâll go back now. Keep in touch.â
As Evan said that, he also smiled at Madeline politely.
Before Madeline could thank him, Evan turned and left hurriedly.
Under their boss Evanâs orders, the staff in the cafe brewed two cups of coffee for Madeline and Fabian. After sending the coffee upstairs, they left.
Soon after, the huge cafe quieted down, and only Madeline and Fabian remained.
Fabian, who did not seem to want to spend time alone with Madeline, wanted to leave, but Madeline stopped him.
âSit down and talk.â
Madeline said and took the initiative to sit down on the sofa near the window.
Fabian stopped as he turned around. âI have nothing to talk to you about, Miss Montgomery. â
After Fabian said that, he still wanted to leave.
Madeline looked at Fabianâs back figure and said slowly.
âWhen you were drunk last night, Evan had told me a lot of things, including you donating your bone marrow to Lilyâ¦â
Fabian was about to walk downstairs when he froze. He then furrowed his brows and pursed his lips, seemingly annoyed.
âIâm sorry, Fabian.â
Fabian initially wanted to leave just like that, but then he heard Madeline apologizing to him suddenly.
Sorry?
Fabian did not understand Madelineâs words. Wouldnât thank you be more appropriate?
This piqued Fabianâs curiosity, so he turned around and slowly walked over to Madeline.
âSorry? Why are you apologizing to me?â
Madeline lifted her beautiful crystal-clear eyes which were filled with sincerity.
âThis whole time, I thought I was your good friend, but after so long, it seems that Iâve never cared about your feelings and emotions.â
After hearing what Madeline had said, Fabian was even more confused.
