Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife by Sixteenth Child

Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [Sixteenth Child] Chapter 381

After the nurse said that, the air around them felt incredibly stifling.

Madeline smiled calmly and said, “I think you must be talking about Madeline.”

“It’s her…”

Sean’s shocked exclamations sounded in her ear.

Madeline turned around and saw regret as well as an apologetic look on Sean’s handsome face.

“I didn’t think that she was the one who gave blood to Ellie. I even…”

He had thought Madeline was bullying Meredith back then. As such, he yelled at Madeline angrily.

He had said to her, “It’s no wonder your biological parents didn’t want you. Such a vicious person like you shouldn’t even be alive in this world!”

Sean was stunned. He placed his hands over his eyes in remorse.

Madeline donated so much blood for Eloise and Jackson in secret back then.

However, she did not say anything. She only endured all of their evil words and reprimanding.

At that moment, Sean felt like he had committed the worst sin possible.

Now, even if he wanted to apologize, he did not have the chance anymore.

Madeline was dead.

“What’s wrong, Mr. Montgomery?” When Madeline noticed the worry and look of apology on Sean’s face, she asked softly.

Sean came back to his senses and smiled while hiding the uneasiness in his heart. “It’s fine. Thank you for giving blood to my wife, Miss Quinn.”

“Saving a life is like fighting against fire. I can’t just ignore someone in danger.” Madeline smiled. When she turned around, she saw Jeremy in a dispirited state.

The melancholy in his eyes was even more intense than Sean’s.

Madeline smiled bitterly.

She never expected them to thank or repay her by doing so. However, she did not expect them to give her such debilitating pain either.

Those words spewed at her back then were like invisible knives. They had sliced her skin repeatedly.

She still remembered the pain she felt back then.

After receiving Madeline’s blood, Eloise successfully averted danger.

Madeline let out a sigh of relief.

She was her birth mother, after all. She would be lying if she said she did not care about her.

Sean thanked her again and questioned, “Miss Quinn, how do you know that my wife has the same blood type as you?”

Madeline smiled and said, “After I came to Glendale, I saw a lot of information about Madeline and Meredith online. I know they have the same blood type, and I heard Meredith gave blood to Mrs. Montgomery as well. So, naturally, I was able to predict that my blood type must be a match with Mrs. Montgomery’s too.”

Sean was taken aback when he heard that.

Sean still remembered what the nurse said just now. She said Meredith refused to give blood back then. Eloise was only safe all thanks to Madeline.

Meredith had refused.

She had refused to give blood.

Which meant that she never gave blood to Eloise. However, when that happened, he remembered Meredith telling him that she was the one who gave blood to Eloise.

It seemed that Meredith was lying.

His allegedly kind and warmhearted daughter was telling such lies. On the other hand, she even slandered Madeline’s conduct.

Sean was obviously defeated. When Madeline told him she was leaving, he was still standing in place in shock.

Jeremy drove Madeline back to his place. On the way, Madeline leaned against the seat and fell asleep from exhaustion. When she woke up, it was dawn.

She noticed that she was lying in the bed in her old bedroom. Her blood-stained clothes had been removed and she was wearing her old pajamas.

Madeline grasped the front of her pajamas in concern. Thankfully, she had worn a tank top underneath her shirt just in case. Unless Jeremy had deliberately pulled down her tank top, he would not have been able to see the mole.

Madeline got out of bed and cleaned herself up. When she was about to look for Jeremy, she heard noises from the balcony.

She looked over and saw the man standing there alone. Jeremy’s tall and slender back looked frail.

There was a cigarette between his long fingers. The tip of the cigarette lit up and dimmed simultaneously, looking desolate in the morning sun.

Perhaps he heard footsteps, so he turned around and saw Madeline walking toward him. He narrowed his eyes into a grin. “Why don’t you sleep more?”

“I’ll wake up if I get enough sleep.” Madeline smiled. When she saw Jeremy in yesterday’s clothes, she asked, “You didn’t sleep for the entire night?”

He curled the corner of his lips. His eyes were as dark as night as they were glued on Madeline’s fair and gentle face.

“It’s been difficult for me to fall asleep for the past three years.”

A glint flashed across Madeline’s eyes when she heard that.

Jeremy extinguished his cigarette and walked in front of her.

The unique smell of tobacco from his body surrounded her slowly.

“Vera, do you think a person will be forgiven after they apologize for the mistake they made?”

Madeline thought about what happened last night when she heard that.

That nurse had made him think about what happened a few years ago.

Perhaps he did not expect the woman who he thought to be evil to do something like that in secret. Therefore, that was why he reckoned that he was wrong.

Madeline smiled. She lifted her hand to caress Jeremy’s face in concern. “Jeremy, what’s wrong? Why are you asking that question all of a sudden?”

Jeremy held her hand that was on his face.

His hand was cold, and the slight temperature in his hand enveloped hers. “You won’t leave me, right?”

“Why would I leave you for no reason?” Madeline asked with a slight smile. “You must be tired from staying awake the entire night. Go have some rest. We need to go to the court later. Meredith’s hearing is today,” Madeline said, turning around after retracting her hand.

When her hand left the source of warmth, the faint temperature disappeared as well.

Jeremy looked at Madeline’s back. The expression in his eyes was getting more and more peculiar.

…

Meredith’s hearing started at ten in the morning.

After a while, Meredith was brought out.

She was wearing a blue and white striped prisoner’s outfit. Despite having tidied herself up, she still could not hide the freckles and dark circles on her face.

At this moment, she looked completely different from the image of a socialite from a wealthy family that she had built.

Meredith was brought to the dock. When she saw Sean, she had already readied her tears before looking at him. She was curious about why Eloise was absent.

After scanning across the gallery, she saw Jeremy. Meredith started sobbing even harder now.

The lawyer Eloise hired for Meredith was exceptional. After a while, the circumstances were reversed and Meredith was about to be announced as not guilty.

When she saw this, Meredith used this opportunity to cry out a grievance, “Your Honor, I was wrongfully accused! Someone is framing me!”

She looked at Jeremy after she said that.

“Jeremy, do you see this? I’m innocent. I never did anything that’ll go against my conscience.”

“Of course, you’ve never done anything that went against your conscience. You don’t even have one anymore.”

Madeline’s cold tone sounded in the court.

Meredith lifted her gaze and saw Madeline walking over with a powerful aura. She was dressed in a simple yet elegant suit.

Madeline’s appearance quickly trumped how Meredith looked right now.

Meredith gritted her teeth and clenched her fists as she scowled at Madeline.

Madeline walked to the witness stand and bowed to the judge. “Your Honor, I’m the victim of this case, Vera Quinn. I have solid evidence that can prove Meredith Crawford did plan to harm me and her son, Jackson Whitman.”

When Meredith heard that Madeline had more evidence, Meredith started to panic.

“Your Honor, don’t trust this woman. She’s trying to frame me! I’m being falsely accused by her!” Meredith pointed at Madeline and shrieked emotionally. “I’m really innocent, Your Honor!”

“Defendant, please calm down. If you continue to make noise, the court will charge you with contempt of court,” the judge said seriously.

“…” When she heard this, Meredith shut her mouth quickly.

However, she was nervous. She did not know what Madeline’s solid evidence was.

At this moment, the police brought Jon and Rose inside.

Meredith looked at Jon and Rose anxiously. She knew something was not right.

Just as she expected, Jon and Rose were testifying against her in court!

“Your Honor, my adopted daughter, Meredith Crawford, was indeed the person who planned this. She was discussing this with us at our home,” Rose said. She did not dare to look Meredith in the eyes.

Jon made a full confession at one side as well. “We wanted to stop Meredith, but she did not want to listen. She said Vera Quinn stole her man and she had to teach her a lesson. She bribed some thugs to kidnap her son so that she could blame it all on Vera Quinn. Then, she decided to kill Vera Quinn and end things once and for all in a blind fit of rage.”

!!!

Meredith widened her eyes in shock. She almost started vomiting blood from anger.

“You two…” Her chest was heaving violently. “You two are crazy! How can you say something like that?”

Rose and Jon looked at her nonchalantly. “Mer, now that it has come to this, we can’t wrongly accuse the innocent anymore. Vera is truly innocent.”

“…” Meredith was so angry that her entire body was shaking.
