Chapter 724
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Felipe was looking at the time on his watch when he heard Madeline say that to him.
He turned around to look at her in disbelief. âEveline?â
Madeline rode her horse closer to him and smiled softly. âItâs decided, then. Weâll go back to F Country next week with Lily so that we can live a happy life with just the three of us.â
Felipe was obviously taken aback by Madelineâs answer.
She was agreeing to go back to F Country with him.
The three of them.
That statement went to the deepest part of his heart.
Howeverâ¦
He watched as she rode away with her horse, and his expression changed. After that, he quickly took out his phone and called a number, but the person on the other end did not pick up.
Felipe did not hesitate before calling Cathy.
After Cathy received his call, she knew that Felipe wanted her to do something for him. Even though she was curious, she still did it.
Madeline rode into the distance with her horse.
She recalled the events that happened over the past few days and felt that it was time to put an end to this.
âYouâre in love with him again. Youâre in love with the man who made you wish you were dead.â
What Felipe said to her just now lingered in her ears.
She grabbed the reins and took a deep breath.
She could not forget that Felipe was the one who saved her life.
Plus, they even had a daughter together.
Also, she had promised him to stay with him and be his bride.
When she took all these things into consideration, she no longer had a reason to reject him.
As for Jeremyâ¦
When Madeline thought of this man, she slowed down her horse. She looked forward quietly as her eyes twinkled.
Half an hour later, Madeline returned to the equine park and saw Felipe making a call. It seemed like it was something urgent as he had a solemn expression on his face.
Felipe hung up the phone immediately when he saw Madeline.
His smile was like the warm spring breeze. âEveline, go take a shower. Iâve booked a table at a restaurant so that we can go grab a bite later.â
âOkay.â Madeline nodded.
She took a shower and changed. Then, she noticed that her phone had run out of battery when she got into Felipeâs car.
After charging her phone, she saw that there were more than ten missed calls and they were all from Jeremy.
Madeline felt that something was wrong. When she was about to call him back, she saw a message from Jeremy telling her that Lily was missing.
âLilyâs missing?â Madelineâs heart started beating erratically.
Felipe looked at her in puzzlement. âEveline, what did you say?â
âFelipe, Lily is missing.â
âIsnât she with her grandma? How can she go missing all of a sudden?â he asked, looking at Madelineâs concerned and worried face. He held her hand. âDonât worry, our daughter will be fine.â
Felipe comforted her, but there was a calmness in his eyes.
Montgomery Manor.
Jeremy was waiting restlessly for Madeline. When he saw Felipe with her, he felt repulsed.
The two men looked at each other as sparks started flying silently.
âWhatâs going on? Where did she go missing?â Madeline asked frantically.
When Jeremy was about to say something, two policemen walked into the house hurriedly. âWeâve found the missing little girl. However, you need to prepare yourself as sheâs showing no signs of life.â
