Chapter 971
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
The moment Lana heard that, she was taken aback because she thought she misheard her.
However, Madelineâs gaze was sharp. She then pulled Lana back forcefully and kicked her on her right knee.
Lana was unprepared. With a bend of her right leg, she was now kneeling on one knee in front of Madeline.
No one expected Madeline to do this, and Lana was also dumbfounded.
However, she soon became agitated. She lifted her head to stand up, but Madeline slapped her heavily across her face out of the blue.
Lana was fuming. âEveline, youââ
When she was about to curse and warn her, Eveline grabbed her chin domineeringly. Her cold eyes were filled with flames of revenge that enveloped Lana tightly.
âApologize!â Madeline was glaring straight at her. Then, she took out a polaroid picture from her pocket.
It was the photo she took of Eloise and Sean when they were alive. âApologize to my parents!â
When Lana saw the photo, she understood what Madeline was saying. However, she was the second-
in-command of the Stygian Johnson Gang and the little princess who was spoiled by her brother ever since she was young. How could she kneel and apologize to two dead people in public?
When the crowd around them heard that, they started gossiping among themselves.
They had read online about the fire at Montgomery Manor. Could it be that this woman who looked like a thug was related to the fire?
If not, why would Eveline be so mad and want to teach this woman a lesson?
âEveline, let go of Lana now!â Naomi quickly ran over to demand Eveline to let go.
Madeline lifted her red eyes and looked at her coldly. âThis is between me and this woman. You shouldnât involve yourself in this. If not, donât blame me for shifting the blame on you as well!â
âYouâ¦â Naomi wanted to help Lana, but when she saw Madelineâs stern gaze and imposing manner, she did not dare to talk back to her.
Lana gritted her teeth in anger. She wanted to stand up, but Madeline was using all her might to stop her.
âLana, Iâm asking you to apologize. Apologize to my dead parents!â Madeline demanded again.
Lanaâs eyes were vicious. âEveline, do you know what youâre doing? Youâd better let go of me right now. If not, your parents wonât be the only dead ones. Your sonââ
Slap!
Madeline slapped Lana across the face without a second thought once again.
She was fuming as well, but at the same time, she also felt devastated.
Her eyes were red and filled with tears as they glared at Lana in resentment. âThen, Iâll let you apologize to my parents in person before you hurt my children, you she-devil!â
Another slap.
It was also in front of everybody!
Lana was going to explode. Then, her eyes darkened. âEveline, I think youâre asking for death. Do you want to know what bullets taste like? Iâll let you know now!â
Lana reached into her waist, and it was clear that she was the kind of person who would bring a gun with her wherever she went.
However, Madeline was not scared. When she thought about her parents who died tragically and how the murderer was Jeremy, she felt so much pain that she wanted to end her life. At least now, she would die with Lana.
At this moment, she was not scared of death at all.
Suddenly, Jeremy walked next to Madeline and pulled away Madelineâs hand that was trapping Lana in place.
Lanaâs hand froze as she touched the gun.
When Naomi saw this, she walked over to help Lana up. âLana, are you okay?â
Lana glared at Madeline and did not say anything.
