Chapter 1333
Jeremy settled Madeline down before leaving to capture Ryan.
Only after Ryan was captured could Linnie stop being scared and recover in a comfortable, relaxing environment.
Madeline poked her head out of the window and looked at Jeremy's back as he ran off. There was a vague uneasiness in her beautiful eyes. "Jeremy's gone again," she muttered sadly. A touch of melancholy and worry appeared on her face again.
Thinking about what Jeremy had just told her, Madeline sat quietly in the car.
However, her heart was beating wildly. Ryan's appearance earlier had startled her.
On the other hand, Ryan had been keeping tabs on Madeline and Jeremy. He followed them back the same day they flew back to Glendale.
He knew that the police and IBCI were looking for him, but he would not allow himself to be caught until he achieved his goal.
After scurrying off, he hid in an alley.
The injury he got that day was still inflamed, making him feel a bit off.
He wanted to go home, but he read some news online and knew that there were reporters nearby. The police were there waiting as well.
He could not go home nor contact his parents.
Ryan furrowed his long eyebrows and leaned tiredly against the wall, his eyes filled with strong reluctance.
"Jeremy, there's no way I'm going to let Eveline return to you and reunite with your family so happily."
He clenched his teeth, and the darkness in his eyes surged.
'Even if I don't get to the end of the plan, at least I'll leave you a lifetime of regrets.'
Ryan swore to himself. He looked at the sore wound and tried to return to his lodging, but as soon as he turned around, he caught sight of Jeremy's tall frame.
Ryan's eyes darkened as he looked at the man walking toward him step by step.
Though it was sunny, Ryan could see that Jeremy's whole body was full of cold aura.
Ryan knew exactly how Jeremy was feeling right now.
It was a sharp blow to him that the woman he loved the most had forgotten him.
Ryan curled the corners of his lips into a smirk of triumph at the thought of this. "Jeremy, so what if you've caught me? You can never make Eveline the same again. How is it? How does it feel to be forgotten by the woman you love the most?"
His tone was sarcastic, and his smile was somewhat arrogant.
"Jeremy, do you know how I've been tormenting the woman you love to the point of driving her insane?"
Though Jeremy knew Ryan was only saying this to provoke him, he could not help taking the bait.
He tightened his long fair fingers one by one, and the blue veins on the back of his hand bulged. His thin peach blossom lips were pursed into a cold hard arc, and his eyes glistened coldly.
As he walked toward Ryan, Ryan continued provoking him.
"I locked her in the room every day. I forced her to take injections and eat. I also forced her to obey me and be mine. However, she was so stubborn that she wouldn't listen to me. Therefore, I could only take a more extreme approach to sand her edges. In the end, I succeeded.
"Jeremy, the woman you love the most is no different than an idiot now. She'll spend her days in dread because I'm not going to let you capture me so easily!"
