Chapter 1330
Karen was stunned after hearing what Madeline said. "Eveline, what... What are you talking about? This is Jack and Lillian. What's the matter? You don't recognize them?" she asked in disbelief. Her eyes shifted from Madeline's confused face to Jeremy.
"Jeremy, Eveline..."
Jeremy had a distressed frown on her face. "Ryan drove her insane."
"What?!" Karen was shocked and instantly furious. "What did Ryan do to Eveline? How could someone be driven insane?"
Jeremy frowned deeper. However, for fear of upsetting Madeline, he spoke nothing and told Karen to hold off the questioning.
He made Jackson take Lillian away to play on their own while he took Madeline back to their bedroom.
When Madeline walked into her and Jeremy's room, the familiar furnishing was unfamiliar to her.
However, Madeline seemed to be interested in the room's furnishing. She picked up a photo album next to the bedside table. After opening it, she saw a photo of herself wearing a wedding dress next to a delicate-looking and elegant man.
Madeline raised her hand and caressed the man in the photo. "Jeremy."
She called out with a smile on her lips.
Jeremy noticed what Madeline was doing. 'Linnie recognizes me in the photo?'
The photo was taken years ago at his and Madeline's wedding. His pupils and hair color were normal back then.
'Linnie, do you not recognize who I am now because of the poison that has changed my appearance?'
Jeremy thought about it quietly and did not interrupt Madeline.
However, Karen could not keep calm. She asked the servant to take care of the kids and immediately asked the driver to fetch her to Jones Manor.
There were a lot of reporters waiting at the entrance to Jones Manor these days. Mr. and Mrs. Jones were distressed all day long, and they had to go to the police station to help with the investigation from time to time. Besides, they could not get in touch with Ryan. The couple was distraught.
There was a crowd at the entrance, but Karen could not care less. She angrily pushed past the crowd and rushed in.
The reporters contended with each other to get the exclusive scoop when they saw this.
Mr. and Mrs. Jones heard the noise and looked at the entrance only to see Karen storming in.
"What are you doing here?" Mrs. Jones asked rather angrily as she frowned.
Karen chuckled coldly. "What am I doing here? Have you ever asked your son what he did? Not only did he frame my son for murder and take my daughter-in-law hostage, but he drove her insane too!" "What did you say?" Mr. and Mrs. Jones both cried out in shock. "Rye drove Eveline insane? Hmph. It serves her right to go mad! How dare she play with my son's feelings?!"
Karen was even more annoyed as she did not expect Mr. and Mrs. Jones to behave like this. "Eveline and Ryan were never a real couple! We made it clear in the announcement. Are you trying to play dumb?" "Play dumb?"
Mr. Jones seemed irritated by the words. His expression changed immediately, and he shouted angrily at Karen.
"Who on earth has been playing dumb all these years? 15 years ago, the Whitman family killed my father and paid to get rid of the charges. Even if Rye did drive your daughter-in-law insane, the Whitman family deserves it!"
Karen came to stand up for Madeline, but she heard such a thing instead.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Is there such a thing?" She was puzzled but did not stand down. "Even if there's bad blood between the Whitman family and the Jones family, that's not a valid reason for your son to hurt my daughter-in-law! Wait and see. I'll get justice for my daughter-in-law!"
With that, Karen angrily pushed through the crowd of reporters outside and quickly returned to Whitman Manor.
She immediately found Old Master Whitman and asked about it. "Dad, do the Whitman family and the Jones family have any bad blood? Why did the Jones family say we killed their old man?"
