Chapter 1398

In that moment of unease, Madeline stepped forward and took the phone from Jeremy’s hand.

“I’m Jeremy Whitman’s wife as well as the daughter of the woman you kidnapped. I’ll bring the money if that’s what you wish. As long as you promise my mother’s safety, I’ll gladly bring you the money!”

The man immediately agreed, not expecting Madeline to be so quick to agree. “What a straightforward personality you have, Mrs. Whitman. It’s only right that I stick to my word as well. All I want is to be repaid for taking care of your mother, nothing more. Pay me and you shall have your mother back. I’ll be waiting!”

The man then hung up the call. Just then, Jeremy received a call from the bank telling him that the money had been prepared.

Madeline got ready to take a trip to the bank for the money. She would then go to retrieve Eloise. However, Jeremy was reluctant to let her go just like that.

“You can’t go by yourself, Linnie.” Worry filled the man’s expression as he refused to let go.

Madeline understood what Jeremy was feeling and turned to smile at the man. “I’ll take good care of myself, Jeremy. I also know that you won’t leave me all alone there, would you?”

Jeremy immediately understood what Madeline meant. He was fully aware that he would not be able to stop Madeline, but that did not mean he would let her face danger all alone. Jeremy would certainly find a way to watch over her from the shadows.
