    Her voice rang beside his ears again. “Jonathan, believe it or not. You won’t meet a woman who loves


    you more than me in this world!”


    “Enough!” he snapped.


    Suddenly, everyone participating in the video conference shut up, and no one dared to say another


    word. Especially the senior executive who was making the report just now. His face turned ashen,


    thinking there. was something wrong with his report.


    Carlos quickly whispered to Jonathan, “Mr. Youngblood, what are you…”


    Jonathan opened his eyes and came back to his senses, knowing that he had lost hisposure just


    now. “That’s all for today. Let’s end the meeting.” After saying that, Jonathan turned off the screen of


    the video conference and stood up to walk outside the study.


    He wanted to take a breather first, trying topletely erase the voice that sounded beside his ears


    from time to time. But when he arrived outside the room, it was as if her voice filled the air outside.


    “Jon! Jon!”


    “You won’t meet a woman who loves you more than me in this world!”


    “You won’t…”


    Jonathan suddenly leaned against the pir on the side of the corridor, panting in a pathetic state.


    He thought, “Does she really love me that much? Is she really the person who loves me the most in this


    world? If she really loves me as much as she ims, why would she…”


    Suddenly, rapid footsteps sounded behind him. Then Carlos’ voice echoed. “Mr. Youngblood,


    something may have happened to Mrs. Youngblood.”


    “What do you mean?” Jonathan was stunned.


    Carlos hurriedly said, “Well, Mrs. Youngblood asked someone to check the whereabouts of Ms. Quinn


    and found that Ms. Quinn got into Madeline’s car at the Women’s Health Hospital. She originally


    wanted people to continue to find out where Ms. Quinn is now, but after a while, she called them again


    and said that they didn’t need to keep checking.”


    Carlos paused, looked at Jonathan’s darkening expression, and continued, “Later, our men found that


    Mrs. Youngblood left in a strange car. When we called her, she told us she was going out to handle


    some matters alone and also requested us to tell the kitchen staff to set aside the cooking ingredients


    she prepared yesterday so she could have dinner with you tonight, Mr. Youngblood.”


    Jonathan narrowed his eyes and asked, “Did she prepare any ingredients yesterday?”


    “I’ve already asked the kitchen staff, but Mrs. Youngblood didn’t prepare any ingredients,” Carlos said.


    Jonathan’s eyes gleamed. He thought, “In other words, she imed something that never happened so


    seriously and even mentioned my name. Did something bad really happen? Was she using this method


    to request my help?”


    Jonathan immediately said, “Send someone to find out her driving trajectory at once and follow her in


    secret. Don’t rm anyone.”


    “Yes,” Carlos hurriedly answered and left.


    Jonathan felt utterly ill at ease. He thought, “Is she under Madeline’s control? That woman I’ve never


    taken seriously! I didn’t expect her to be a ticking time bomb! It was my negligence. Since Madeline


    dared to hurt Lillian once, she would dare to do it again. Since Rosie cares so much for Lillian,


    shouldn’t I have already anticipated Madeline to target Rosie too? But at that time, after Lillian was


    harmed by Madeline, Rosie helped my mother and Mr. Smuckler escape from Strico. I was so angry


    that Ipletely forgot about Madeline. Rosie must not get hurt. If anything bad happens to her…”


    Jonathan’s breathing grewborious. If someone was by his side at that moment, they could see how


    pale he looked.


    It turned out that all his assumption that he didn’t actually love Rosalie deeply was proven to be the


    contrary when she was in danger.


    When Rosalie saw Lillian as she wished, she knew that her friend had taken the initiative to get in the


    car with Madeline because Madeline threatened Lillian with Abigail.


    At that time, Madeline said to Lillian, “If you don’t get in the car with me, I can’t guarantee your mother,


    who’s in the bathroom, will remain safe. If you shout now and attract others’ attention or resist, I will


    immediately press this button to trigger the bomb. By then, your mother will perish as the restroom


    explodes.”

    Lillian couldn’t be sure whether what Madeline said was true or not, but Madeline didn’t give her any


    time to dy. If Lillian hadn’t gone with her within a minute, she would activate the bomb.


    She didn’t dare to risk her mother’s life, so she had to follow Madeline.


    She wanted to call the police secretly in the car, but her phone was directly taken away by Madeline,


    who forced Lillian to lie to her mother.


    “Rosalie, I’m sorry,” Lillian said. “I didn’t expect you to be dragged into this mess.”


    “How are you? Did she hurt you?” Rosalie cared more about the safety of Lillian than herself.


    At that moment, Lillian’s hands and feet were tied up by Madeline. There were also several burly and


    menacing-looking men beside Madeline.


    “I’m fine.” -Lillian said.


    “Fine?” Madeline sneered. “You’re fine now, but you won’t be soon. Lillian, do you really think I brought


    you here just to show you the scenery?”


    Lillian’s face turned pale.


    Rosalie said seriously, “Madeline, what exactly do you want to do?” Before, Madeline called her on the


    phone and directly told her to get into a strange car. In the same way, she forced Rosalie to call her


    subordinate to cease investigating Lillian’s whereabouts by threatening Rosalie with Lillian’s safety.


    Rosalie could only deliberately mention Jonathan in the conversation, hoping that they would find out


    something was wrong with her and report it to Jonathan.


    She thought, “If it was Jon, he must be able to find out a way to save us!”


    “Of course, it’s because I want to vent my anger,” Madeline said. “Rosalie, I didn’t mean to target you at


    first, but who told you to send someone to look for Lillian? So, I have no choice but to let you suffer with


    Lillian.”


    At the mention of Lillian, Madeline’s eyes were filled with endless hatred.


    Madeline thought, “If it weren’t for Lillian, Callum wouldn’t have treated me with such ruthlessness. I


    even thought that after I had removed the curse for Callum, I could one day revive the Tall family. But


    who would have thought that Callum didn’t even give me the chance to turn the tables? Even though


    he bought part of the Tall family’s property at a good price as agreed, he resorted to other means to


    force my family into desperation.”


    She had confronted Callum once.
