Chapter 2052
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
âCarter, Carter! Carter, donât, donât hurt Lillian!â Click.
Carter opened the door at the same time Shirley said that.
Madeline, who had been waiting intently at the door, suddenly heard these words coming from the room, and her heart also skipped a beat.
âLily! â
Madeline ran to the entrance quickly, and at this moment, she saw Lillian who was held in Carterâs arms.
âMommy.â
As soon as Lillian saw Madeline, she reflexively called out that word.
Shirley was surprised when she heard that, and at the same time, she saw the sudden appearance of Madeline.
âEveline?â
Shirley was extremely surprised, but she felt also a hint of pleasant surprise.
She was surprised by Madelineâs appearance and pleasantly surprised to hear Lillian calling out to her mother.
It turned out that Lillianâs voice was so sweet and crisp.
Additionally, when she heard Lillian calling out to her mother, it also made her inexplicably envious.
When Lillian saw Madeline, her small body leaned hard toward Madeline.
âLily.â Having not seen her baby girl for several months, Madeline was also very excited.
However, Carter stopped Madeline immediately. â Stop.â
âCarter?â
âIâll just let you take a look. You only wanted to know whether your daughter is safe or not, didnât you?â
Madeline furrowed her charming eyebrows. â Carter, Iâm already here. You wonât die if you let me spend some time with my daughter.â
Shirley understood what Madeline meant, so she sided with her. âLet Eveline come in. Iâll help you keep an eye on them.â
âYouâll help me keep an eye on them?â Carter was amused. â If I allowed that, you might be gone with them.â
ââ¦â Shirley was speechless.
âAlright, since this is your request, Iâll agree with it.â Carter finally gave in.
After that, he placed Lillian down.
Madelineâs face immediately showed a look of delight. âLily! â
She called out to the little princessâ name and walked toward Lily to pull her into her arms.
âLily.â
âMommy,â Lillian called out to Madeline obediently, her frail little body tightly nestled in Madelineâs arms.
She wanted to say, âMommy, I missed you.â
However, even if her little mouth was moving, she still could not make a sound. Merely the word â
Mommyâ spilled from her lips.
Madeline felt tears prickling the corners of her eyes as she caressed Lillianâs little head.
She realized that Lillianâs hair had grown, but this further ached Madelineâs heart. âLily, I missed you.â
Lillian lifted her fair and tender small hands to touch Madelineâs cheeks, then planted a kiss on Madelineâs cheek with her small lips.
âMommy.â
âLily.â
Madeline enjoyed the warmth in her arms, and tears started to fall from her eyes unconsciously.
Shirley, too, felt tears prickling the corners of her eyes as she watched this scene. She wanted to give Madeline and Lillian some time alone, but Carter suddenly walked over to slam the door shut.
