Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman novel Chapter 1451

Chapter 1451

Madeline looked at Ryan’s back that was facing her and turned around decisively. Then, she looked at the endless sea in front of him.

‘Ryan, you’re definitely going to lose this game.’

Ryan knew Madeline was going to hide now. He looked at the ticking time on his watch. He only turned around after the last second of the ten minutes passed.

There was only one house on the island and the structure of the house was simple. He did not think that he would not be able to find Madeline in under half an hour.

However, as time passed, not only could he not find Madeline in the house, but he also looked all over the yacht near the beach and still could not find any traces of Madeline at all.

It was as if she had evaporated from this island and he could not find any traces of her.

How was this possible?

Everything on this island could be seen at one glance. It was a small house with no special hiding places. Where could Madeline be?

Ryan felt that this was unfathomable and there was a look of anxiety on his face.

He did not want to lose. He did not want to let Madeline go just like that.

He looked at the time again and there were only ten minutes before the game ended.

Ryan went back into the house to look all over again while feeling unconvinced. He even looked under the bed but still, there were no traces of Madeline.

He walked out of the house and looked at the vast and limitless sea. His heart felt as if it had sunk to the bottom of the endless sea.

“Eveline, will you seriously win this?”

He asked himself in a low voice. Then, a bitter smile appeared on his lips.

“It’s just a month and you still refuse to help a dying man accomplish his last wish. Heh.”

Ryan mocked himself and looked at the time to see that the game was ending. Then, he faced the house in front of him.

“Eveline, you can come out now. I’m admitting defeat. I can’t find you,” he increased his volume and yelled at the house.

Madeline pushed her short wet hair away and walked calmly in front of Ryan.

“Ryan, you’re a man of your words. You’ve lost.”

“Were you really hiding in the water this entire time?” Ryan was still refusing to believe such a result.

“Your rules didn’t say that I can’t hide in the water. I didn’t break the rules, right?” Madeline asked calmly.

Ryan’s eyes were filled with the color of admiration. “Eveline, you’re so full of surprises.”

“Then, do you know that the surprise you’re seeing was taught to me by my husband again and again with utmost patience?”

Ryan was stunned when he heard that. Then, he smiled when he suddenly realized it. “So he’s the one who taught you to swim. No wonder.”

“Stop spewing nonsense. You’ve lost. Take me away from here now,” Madeline requested. She did not want to stay another second more in this place.

Ryan looked at the impatient look on Madeline’s face as an ominous smirk appeared on his lips.
