Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 1104

Chapter 1104

When Lillian saw Fabian, a smile blossomed on her beautiful face.

Even though she did not say anything, her body language showed that she wanted to get close to Fabian.

Madeline let go of her 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 her head lightly.

Fabian felt his heart getting warmer when he saw the innocent face.

Madeline was not against Fabian. She thought this scene in front of her 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 he 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, she 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 she heard Jeremy’s name.

However, she 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 her daughter who was in Fabian’s arms.

At that moment, she felt as if her whole world had stopped moving.

“Eveline, is that true?” Fabian looked at the frozen Madeline and asked in curiosity.

Madeline found her train of thought and scoffed. “He’s fine. How could he be dead? I even saw him a while ago.”

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 him with her 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, he turned around. To his surprise, he 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 she tried her best to control her emotions. Then, he 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.”
