When Lillian saw Fabian, a smile blossomed on snazzynovel.com beautiful face.
Even though snazzynovel.com did not say anything, snazzynovel.com body language showed that snazzynovel.com wanted to get close to Fabian.
Madeline let go of snazzynovel.com hand and Lillian jogged over to get close to Fabian.
Fabian squatted and carried the adorable little girl. “Lily, did you miss me?”
Lillian nodded snazzynovel.com head lightly.
Fabian felt his heart getting warmer when snazzynovel.com saw the innocent face.
Madeline was not against Fabian. She thought this scene in front of snazzynovel.com looked pretty heartwarming as well.
She could see Fabian’s concern and care for Lillian.
He used to be frivolous, but now, it seemed that snazzynovel.com had changed a great deal.
“Fabian, are you here for me?” Madeline asked.
Fabian nodded. He did not mind the little girl in his arms playing with his hair.
“Lana will be punished soon. However, snazzynovel.com refuses to admit that she’s the one who set the fire in Montgomery Manor. She insists that Jeremy was the one who set the fire. The police in F Country contacted the police here and I received a shocking piece of news.”
Madeline’s heart started racing when snazzynovel.com heard Jeremy’s name.
However, snazzynovel.com pretended to be calm. She looked at Lillian who was grinning while playing with Fabian’s hair before asking flatly, “What news?”
Fabian replied after hesitating for a while, “Jeremy is dead.”
“…”
The three words fell into Madeline’s ears. She looked silently at snazzynovel.com daughter who was in Fabian’s arms.
At that moment, snazzynovel.com felt as if snazzynovel.com whole world had stopped moving.
“Eveline, is that true?” Fabian looked at the frozen Madeline and asked in curiosity.
Madeline found snazzynovel.com train of thought and scoffed. “He’s fine. How could snazzynovel.com be dead? I even saw snazzynovel.com a while ago.”
She purposely emphasized that snazzynovel.com had seen him. However, a while ago was a few months ago.
“I need to take Lily to the psychiatrist. I don’t want to hear any news about Lana.” Madeline took Lillian from Fabian and walked to the garage. Her brain was buzzing with countless voices repeating in snazzynovel.com brain, saying that Jeremy was dead.
Madeline walked away hurriedly. She was the only one who knew snazzynovel.com was hiding from this.
She was driving the car on the road, and halfway through the journey, Madeline stepped on the brakes to stop halfway.
“Jeremy is dead. Eveline, is that true?”
‘No.’
‘That’s not true.’
Madeline denied it in snazzynovel.com heart.
Lillian was sitting in the car seat at the back and looked strangely at snazzynovel.com motionless mother.
She wanted to say something but could not. As such, snazzynovel.com lifted snazzynovel.com chubby hand and knocked on the window.
Madeline came back to snazzynovel.com senses. When snazzynovel.com wanted to turn around to look at Lillian, snazzynovel.com saw a familiar figure walking past snazzynovel.com from the corners of snazzynovel.com eyes.
She saw Ken driving past with a bouquet of white chrysanthemums.
Madeline’s heart was beating erratically. She did not forget how Ken was Jeremy’s best assistant.
What was Ken doing with a bouquet of white chrysanthemums?
Madeline followed after snazzynovel.com with snazzynovel.com car and noticed that Ken was heading to the cemetery.
What surprised Madeline even more was that Ken was holding the flowers to the plot below Eloise and Sean’s—the nameless grave.
Madeline walked over with Lillian. When Ken heard noises from behind him, snazzynovel.com turned around. To his surprise, snazzynovel.com saw Madeline.
“Miss Montgomery…”
“Who’s in there?” Madeline pointed at the nameless grave and asked in a shaky voice.
Ken looked at Madeline as snazzynovel.com tried snazzynovel.com best to control snazzynovel.com emotions. Then, snazzynovel.com took out a card from his suit pocket and handed it to Madeline. “Mr. Whitman told me to hand this to you the day you find out.”
Ken handed the card over and lowered his head in sadness.
“Mr. Whitman passed away a month ago.”
