Chapter 972

However, Madeline broke down after Jeremy did that. “Jeremy, what are you doing? Let go of me! I want this woman to atone for her crimes against my parents!”

She struggled, and all of a sudden, the man pulled her domineeringly into his arms. “Linnie, don’t do this. I know you’re sad that Mom and Dad are gone, but this has nothing to do with Miss Johnson.”

What?

Madeline was taken aback. She looked at the man who was calling her ‘Linnie’ in such a gentle voice in front of her, a look of disbelief flashing across her face.

However, Jeremy continued and held her closely, “Linnie, you’re extremely unstable now. I’ll take you home so that you can rest.”

Lana and Naomi were suspicious when they saw Jeremy behaving this way.

Had his memories come back?

No.

That was impossible.

Lana then noticed Jeremy looking at her. “Miss Johnson, I’m so sorry. My wife only became so unstable because of the death of my in-laws. I hope you can forgive her for what she did just now.”

Lana wanted to end this as well. After all, she was in such a wretched state just now and could not even lift her head because of Madeline.

She understood what Jeremy was doing and thought that this man was helping her. As such, she smiled. “I sympathize with Mrs. Whitman’s bitter experience. I think she’s been through too much. Mr.

Whitman, I won’t look into this for your sake,” Lana said magnanimously. After she said that, she even smirked victoriously at Madeline before leaving.

However, Madeline understood that this man’s memories had not returned. He was still siding with that deranged woman. It was clear that he was helping Lana!

“Lana Johnson, stop right there!” Madeline pushed Jeremy away to stop Lana.

However, before she could go far, Jeremy pulled her back. His eyes looked grim. “Linnie, don’t.”

Madeline sobbed and glared at the man who was pretending to be kind. At this moment, she completely broke down. “Do you know what you’re doing? When will you wake up? Jeremy, why did you become like this? I hate you! I hate…”

Before she could finish, she lost consciousness and passed out after closing her eyes.

Jeremy pulled her into his arms. While he was looking at her pale face, he furrowed his brows.

Ryan watched Madeline at one side with his brows also tightly furrowed. When he saw Jeremy carrying Madeline into the car, he stood there for a while before making a call…

Madeline was out for a very long time. When she woke up, she realized she was in the back seat of a car.

She sat up abruptly, and when she looked out the window, she was shocked.

The ocean was as far as the eye could see and there was soft white sand out there too. This was the beach in April Hill, the place that brought her the most happiness.

However, how did she end up here?

She got out of the car and spotted the man smoking next to it.

Jeremy noticed her and turned to look at her lifelessly. “You’re awake.”

When she remembered what happened before she passed out, she charged over to hit Jeremy.

However, when she lifted her hand, the man grabbed her wrist.

He tightened his grip and pulled her into his arms to lock her in place.

“Eveline, is this how you treat your savior?” he asked in a deep voice. His charming and alluring voice glided into Madeline’s ears mischievously.

He could still feel the remaining fear in his heart when he recalled Lana pulling out her gun.

However, Madeline peered at him and snorted. “Savior? You’re only saving Lana. She’s the woman you love the most!”

He frowned when he heard that. His warm fingertips caressed Madeline’s emotionless face. “Aren’t you the woman I love the most?”
