Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 1203

Chapter 1203

Jeremy strode over and avoided stepping on the blood as much as possible.

However, his calm heartbeat told him that the woman was not Linnie.

He could always tell if it was Madeline even if it was just from her back view.

Upon walking closer, he saw Lana’s scarily pale face in his pupils.

He was not as frightened as he was confused.

Lana was serving her sentence in a prison in F Country, so why was she found dead in a hotel in Glendale?

He checked for a pulse in Lana’s jugular vein but it was clear that there had not been a pulse for a long time.

She was already dead.

Jeremy remembered Ryan’s call, and sure enough, it was a set-up.

He did not stay long and walked toward the door. When he passed by the bathroom, Jeremy made sure to check it.

The worry in his heart surged up again.

‘Linnie, where are you? Why can’t I get through your phone?’

Just when Jeremy wanted to leave, the door was suddenly opened as a female hotel attendant came in with a set meal. She stood face to face with Jeremy.

The female hotel attendant was first startled by Jeremy’s handsome appearance for two seconds before she noticed the blood on the ground. A second later, she saw Lana lying motionless not too far away. She was immediately shocked and dropped the tray of dishes onto the ground.

“Ah! A murder! Help!”

She screamed while running out of the room when a couple happened to pass by in the hallway and heard the call for help. When they did, they looked at the room that the female hotel attendant pointed at. It was the same room Jeremy was coming out from.

Madeline got the box of one month’s worth of anti-toxoid test reagents at the coffee shop where Ryan mentioned.

When she arrived, there was no one in the cafe and the box of anti-toxoid test reagents was placed on the bar. There was only a note on it that read, ‘For Ms. Montgomery.’

Madeline did not know why Ryan wanted to make such a show. If he wanted to give it to her, he could have given it to her in the morning.

She could not figure it out. When she got back into the car, she turned on her phone.

Upon turning on her phone, she found that she had gotten a few missed calls from Jeremy.

Madeline was afraid that Jeremy was worried about her, so she was about to call him back when she got another call from him.

As soon as the call was connected, Jeremy’s worried voice fell into Madeline’s ears before she could say anything. “Linnie, where are you? Are you okay?”

Madeline heard the disturbance and anxiety in Jeremy’s tone. She tried to calm him down immediately. “Don’t worry about me, Jeremy. I’m fine. My phone ran out of battery just now. I’m sorry I made you worried. I’m coming back home immediately.”
