Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman

Chapter 258

Chapter 258

She had just begun enacting her plan for revenge, so she would not allow anything to disrupt it.

Jeremy answered the call but he did not let go of Madeline. She could not escape even if she wanted

to.

She looked at Jeremy as he started frowning. Then, his tone became colder. “What? Jackson is

missing?”

When Madeline heard this, she felt her heart skip a beat.

‘Jackson’s missing again?’

She started to worry as well.

While she was spacing out, Jeremy walked to her with a frown on his face. “My son is missing again,

but I think you can find him.”

“Me?” Madeline was surprised. However, she did not want to argue with him. Her racing heart told her

that she wanted to know Jackson’s whereabouts as well. “I can look for him with you.”

“Let’s go then,” he said, letting go of his hand. Then, he placed his coat on top of Madeline’s thin coat.

This gesture shocked Madeline. Before she could react, Jeremy pulled her downstairs.

On the way, Madeline sent a message to Felipe to let him know what was going on.

Felipe supported her decision as usual.

The car drove into Jeremy’s house. Madeline did not have time to reminisce about all the things around

her when she returned to the place she used to live in. At this moment, she only wanted to know where

Jackson was.

She followed Jeremy into the house. When they walked in, the maid ran over and explained frantically,

saying, “Young Master Jackson was in his room. When I went upstairs after doing the dishes, he was

gone! I’ve looked all over the place but I can’t find him!”

Jeremy heard what the maid had to say with an icy expression on his face. Then, he looked at

Madeline who had a frown on her face. “He won’t be able to go far. Let’s look nearby.”

“I think the child should be in this house,” said Madeline calmly. There was an ache in her heart when

she thought about the previous times she found Jackson. She recalled how she found him holding

himself tightly while shaking furiously.

“No, that can’t be! I’ve looked all over. I even called out his name, but I didn’t get a response.” The maid

dismissed Madeline’s guess.

However, Madeline shook her head and looked over to the front of her before walking upstairs.

not hinder the strong feeling she had for wanting to see Jackson.

Madeline quickly walked into Jackson’s room. After looking around, her eyes finally landed on the

bathroom that was attached to the room.

Jeremy followed behind her. When he was at the door, he heard a soft voice of a woman. “Jack, it’s

me, Vera.”

Was Jackson really in there?

Jeremy felt that this was outrageous. He quickly went to the bathroom and saw Madeline squatting on

the floor. Jackson was in her arms with his eyes closed. There were tears in the corner of his eyes.

He was shocked. Suddenly, he remembered Madeline suggesting he take Jackson to the doctor.

Was this child psychologically ill?

He could not find an answer now, but he felt relieved when he saw that Jackson was fine.

Madeline wanted to leave after she found Jackson, but this child refused to let go of her. Plus, she was

also feeling heartbroken for him, so she was reluctant to let go as well.

Madeline decided to stay after feeling this weird emotion. She carried Jackson to the bed and coaxed

gently, saying, “Jack, you should sleep now. I’ll be here with you.”

Jackson’s bright but insecure eyes stared straight at her. “Really, Vera?”

“Yeah.” She nodded and promised before this little guy finally closed his eyes to go to sleep.

Jeremy brought some clothes and necessities for Madeline. “These pajamas belong to my ex-wife. You

can wear it for the night if you don’t mind.”

He handed her the clothes. Madeline felt weird when she looked at the familiar clothes in her hands.

He had not thrown away her pajamas.

What was he thinking?

After Jeremy closed the door and left, Madeline continued to watch Jackson. At the same time, she

called Felipe to tell him why she could not go home tonight.

After she hung up, she walked into the bathroom.

However, after she showered, she realized she forgot to bring the pajamas. She could only use a towel

at this moment.

She wrapped it around her body hastily and quickly walked back to her room. When she was about to

put on the pajamas, the door opened.

She subconsciously gripped the towel around her chest tighter. She lifted her head to look into

Jeremy’s eyes that were staring at her intensely. What she was concerned about the most was how

Jeremy was looking at the area of the left side of her chest…
