Chapter 869
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Madeline looked at him proudly, âYes, my and Jeremyâs child.â
Felipeâs face darkened immediately. He wanted to know more about this when Madeline said irrefutably, âFelipe, the child in my stomach has nothing to do with you. You thought we did something that night, but actually, you were just hallucinating because of the aromatherapy kit I made especially for you.
âYou were just dreaming. It was just a dream that you wanted to happen.â
Felipe believed Madelineâs skills in blending perfumes, but this truth was too much for him.
All this while, he believed that Madeline was carrying his child. He thought he finally had her. He never imagined that the night they spent together was nothing more than a dream.
He felt pathetic, but when he thought about it, he did have a dream that night. In that dream, the woman who was entangled with him was Cathy.
âFelipe, from now on, I wonât be threatened by you. If you dare to ask someone to hurt Jeremy, Iâll hand the video to the police myself. I will destroy everything youâve built and ruin your reputation.â
Madelineâs gaze was sharp, showing her determination and imposing manner.
Felipe looked into those piercing eyes and turned around furiously.
Fabian appeared next to Madeline. âYouâre so bold, darling. This is my first time seeing a woman keeping Felipe under control.â
However, Madeline did not have the mood to joke around with him. âHave your men arrived?â
âDonât worry. Everythingâs set in place. Your daughter will come back to you safe and sound.â Fabian swirled the wine in his glass. âHowever, I want something from you in exchange.â
He got close to Madeline and muttered.
âI donât want money, but I want the video you mentioned just now.â
That video was strong evidence that proved Felipe was involved in illegal trades.
If the police got a hold of it, then not only Felipe would be captured, but he would also face a huge loss.
Madeline knew the value and the importance of the video. However, she would not give it to Fabian just like this. âI donât like dealing with people who go back on their promises. You wonât disappoint me, right, Mr. Johnson?â
Fabian changed the subject and lifted his eyebrow slyly. âI was just joking with you. Donât worry, I wonât disappoint you.â
Even though she was not close with Fabian, Madeline knew this improper man-child would be much more reliable than Felipe.
At this moment, the thing that worried her the most was Lillianâs safety.
She did not know whether the child would be safely brought back by Fabianâs men.
Felipe left the hotel with the flames of rage burning in his chest. He could not accept the fact that the woman he loved had been fooling him this whole time.
âEveline, I think youâve decided to be my rival.â Felipe took out the colorful shell from his pocket as a radiant smile appeared in his head.
He held the shell tightly, feeling a hint of reluctance in his heart.
However, it seemed that his heart would not race anymore.
âEveline, if you truly want to go back to Jeremy, then I wonât hesitate to destroy everything about him.
âIf I canât get what I want, then he canât have it as well!â
His eyes darkened, and when he was about to step on the accelerator, he received a phone call from his men.
He picked up the phone and heard the man report to him frantically, âMr. Whitman, the security system of the outer courtyard has been tampered with.â
Felipe immediately realized something. âWhereâs Lilian?â
The man on the other side of the phone ran to Lillianâs bedroom. After he opened the door, there was no one in there.
âMiss Lillian is gone!â
