Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 1239

Chapter 1239

Madeline looked at the man who was running toward her in surprise. As soon as she moved her lips, the man gently covered her mouth.

The man grabbed her slender waist and quickly led her away.

Ryan and a white man walked out from behind the wall hurriedly.

Their subordinates followed behind them and took a flashlight to shine on the ground. It was then they saw a stray kitten hunched over as it stepped on the plastic water bottle and meowed at them.

“Mr. Thomas, it’s just a cat.” His men stepped forward and kicked the kitten away.

The man glanced around before turning around with Ryan.

Madeline stood behind the tree and saw what happened just now.

She was lucky that the kitten had suddenly appeared and resolved her crisis.

However, the kitten was kicked because of her and Madeline felt a little intolerable.

“I know what you’re thinking. You can take this kitten away.” A deep and hoarse voice said from behind her.

Madeline turned around and stared at the face in front of her under the faint moonlight.

“Why? Why are you here?”

“I don’t have time to explain to you now. You should go back first. It’s too dangerous here,” the man said, quickly walking aside after speaking. Then, he handed the thin and almost dying kitten to Madeline.

“Hurry up.”

“No, I can’t let you—”

“Go!” The man lowered his voice and ordered in a solemn voice.

Madeline held the kitten in her arms and looked at the man who had already turned around. She did not have another choice, so she could only leave.

However, after she left, she felt anxious. Even so, she could not go back without careful planning.

After she sent the kitten to the vet, Madeline went back to Ryan’s place hurriedly. She was worried that he would be back before her.

Since he had come back so quickly, it meant that nothing happened.

Now, she was more certain that Ryan was the real boss behind the Stygian Johnson Gang!

After a while, Ryan changed into his casual clothes and went downstairs. At the same time, Madeline had just finished cooking the steak.

After tasting Madeline’s dinner, Ryan’s smile became brighter. “I hope I can have more times like this with you in the future.”

Madeline cut her steak with a cold expression. “Ryan, you promised that you would help me save Jeremy, but he’s about to be scheduled to go to court soon. Why didn’t you act at all?”

“In a murder case where there’s both human and physical evidence, how will I have the ability to turn it around?” Ryan pretended to look powerless. “Maybe he did kill Lana and you’re just being deceived by him.”

Madeline stopped cutting the steak. “If he’s convicted, will he get the death penalty?”

“It’s possible.”

Clank! The knife and fork in Madeline’s hand fell heavily on the plate.
