Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman

Chapter 45

Madeline’s vision was blurred by her tears.

However, she still could not believe Jeremy would be that cold-blooded.

It was such a lively child. Could he really do that to a child?

Meredith yanked Madeline’s short hair with all her might. She looked at Madeline’s bare yet stunning

face and could feel anger rising in her chest. “Madeline, do you know who I am now? I’m Miss

Montgomery, and I’m going to be Mrs. Whitman soon. Who are you to fight me?”

She kicked away Madeline who was too weak to fight back. Smiling maliciously, she said, “Didn’t you

want me to give you back your child?”

Madeline quivered. She could see Meredith holding a bottle that was about the size of a fist through her

blurry vision. There was some white powder in it.

“Your child is here.”

What?

Madeline felt as if all of the blood in her body had been sucked dry and her flesh had also been

scraped clean. She only had her bones left.

Her vision turned dark, but she could hear Meredith’s eerie voice saying, “How unfortunate. This is a

child who just came to this world. This child was a chubby and cute baby with flesh and blood.

However, this child has become ashes now.

“Jeremy said the b*stard child deserves this. Who told you to keep upsetting me?

“Oh, this b*stard child was a girl. However, Jeremy did not even look at her before asking someone to

take care of her.

“Since you want her useless ashes, then I shall give them to you.” Meredith pretended to be kind, but

she was laughing sinisterly.

Madeline was in so much pain she was drifting in and out of consciousness. Her vision turned dark, but

when she heard Meredith saying that, she regained it once more.

Her eyes were red as she watched Meredith lift the jar. When she was about to crawl over to catch it,

the hired thug stomped on her back. She was being trapped underneath him.

Smash!

The glass jar smashed into pieces in front of Madeline’s eyes. The ashes flew all over the place with

some even landing on her face.

Madeline widened her red eyes. When she saw the ashes all over the floor, she had an emotional

breakdown.

“Ah!”

She screamed and wailed hysterically. Her pearly whites were stained with blood from her rough

beatings. She looked so tragic at this moment.

Jeremy just got to the door of the cellar when he heard a bone-chilling scream. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

His heart ached all of a sudden. He lifted his head to see a short-haired woman kneeling on the floor

while gathering the powder on the floor with both hands like she was crazy.

When Madeline saw Jeremy, she made an aggrieved expression. “Jeremy, I didn’t want to do this to

Maddie, but when I think about our deceased child, I get so sad…”

She found a reasonable reason to hurt Madeline.

Jeremy’s eyes widened. He looked at the woman in front of him in disbelief. She looked like she was

crazy.

That was Madeline.

As he inspected her, Madeline lifted her head. Her face was bruised and there was blood on the corner

of her lips. However, her eyes were pristine.

When he met her eyes, Jeremy felt a sudden shock.

Madeline did not expect to run into Jeremy again when she was in this state.

She gritted her teeth and used her last breath to run in front of Jeremy. Her bloody hands were covered

with white ashes. She grabbed Jeremy’s collar tightly. “Jeremy! Why? Why are you so cruel? That’s our

child! How could you be so cruel?”

Jeremy was stunned. He looked at the hysterical woman in front of him and his voice was as cold as

before. “When did I have a child with you? Madeline, have you become confused after your

incarceration?”
