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

Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [Sixteenth Child] Chapter 631

Yvonne’s hands halted the moment the lights flickered on.

“So it was you.” An assured voice sounded from behind. “Although, I didn’t expect you to be impatient enough to act so quickly.”

“…”

Yvonne was in disbelief when she recognized the voice.

Turning around frantically, she watched Madeline take elegant steps toward her with a dignified smile.

“Madeline Crawford!”

Yvonne was dazed as Madeline slowly approached her. The hands she used to hold the pillow were suddenly pushed off.

She was shocked as she thought that Old Master Whitman could move. When she turned to look, her frightful eyes spotted Jeremy’s alluring features instead!

Yvonne was dumbfounded. She could not believe that these two people were in the room with her.

Slowly it dawned on her that she had walked into a trap!

It was a trap both Madeline and Jeremy had set. They had just been waiting for her to take the bait!

Yvonne was frantic, but upon remembering that she had a mask on and could not be considered completely exposed, she calmed at the knowledge that she still had a chance to flee and save herself.

With that, Yvonne turned around to run toward the door.

Madeline was standing in her way, so she lifted a hand to push her away fiercely.

However, Madeline evaded it agilely while she stuck a leg out.

Focused on leaving, Yvonne tripped on the leg and landed on the floor face down with a thud.

“Ah!” she shouted in agony and climbed up to run again, ignoring the pain from the fall. However, she then found Winston appearing by the door.

Yvonne staggered backward in shock, knocking into the closet. Her legs felt heavy as if they had been filled with metal.

Indeed, it was a trap!

She had taken the bait!

“What’s happening? What’s with all this noise? It’s the middle of the night. Old Master, what are you doing?” Karen walked over with a groan as she rubbed her bleary eyes.

A good part of her drowsiness vanished at the sight of Winston. “Win? Didn’t you say you were going on a business trip? I thought you’d only be back in another two days? Why are you…”

At that, her eyes fell on Madeline who was standing in the middle of the room.

“Madeline Crawford? What are you doing here in the middle of the night? How could the police release you so quickly already? I suppose your parents must have tipped the guards quite the amount, huh?” Karen mocked, her eyes burning with hatred before she turned to complain to Winston. “Did you know, Win? This woman admitted it herself this morning that—”

“Linnie didn’t do anything illegal, so why wouldn’t she be let off?” Jeremy’s casual tone drifted from the room.

Karen was stunned.

She immediately entered the room to find Jeremy also inside, defending Madeline.

She was about to express her displeasure when her eyes fell on another woman standing by the closet with her back against them.

The woman was dressed like Madeline, and even their heights were similar.

“Who’s this?” Karen pointed at Yvonne.

Madeline quirked a delicate brow and replied coldly, “That is the woman who made your head bleed and stole your jewelry.”

“What?” Karen was shocked as she stared at Madeline. “But the one who hit me was…”

“It had nothing to do with Linnie. This woman is the actual culprit.” Jeremy trailed his cold gaze to Yvonne who was trembling in the corner. “You can keep hiding there, but I can promise you it won’t change the fact of things. Do you think you can still protest and defend yourself?”

“…”

Karen was confused. “What’s going on? Who’s this woman?”

Winston walked over and ripped Yvonne’s mask off her face before pushing her toward Karen. “Take a good look. This is the woman who hit you and stole both your wallet and your jewelry!”

Looking at the person in front of her, Karen was dazed.

“Yvonne!”

“It’s not me, Aunty Karen!” Yvonne argued frantically. “Madeline is the one who set a trap to frame me! It really wasn’t me. I didn’t do anything! You’re my aunt, the only family I have in Glendale. Why would I hit you and steal your things? It really wasn’t me!”

“You’ve already been exposed, so why try and shift the blame to Linnie?” Jeremy had long lost his patience. “The fact that you slipped into Grandfather’s room just now to try and suffocate him with a pillow is enough evidence of your crimes.”

“No, I didn’t…” Yvonne tried to force tears out of her eyes pitifully. “It really wasn’t me, Aunty Karen. You have to believe me!”

Taking in her niece’s sobs, Karen turned to glare at Madeline. “It’s you, isn’t it, Madeline? You did all this because you want to shift the blame to Yvonne! Yvonne’s an innocent child who I’ve raised ever since she was a child. How could she do such a thing? Not to mention that I’m her aunt!”

Not in the mood to argue, Madeline parted her lips calmly. “I did all this to lure the culprit out, just like how I purposely told you that I was the one who hit you. I did that to lower the culprit’s guard.”

“What?” Karen was stunned. She said it on purpose?

Not giving Karen the time to digest, Madeline continued.

“Do you remember when Grandfather pointed at the entrance and kept saying the word ‘Vonne’ that day? Both Jeremy and I thought we heard him wrong and he was saying the word ‘floor’ as in the blood splatters on the ground. When in truth, Grandfather was pointing at Yvonne who had walked out the door with you.”

“…”

“Grandfather said the word ‘Vonne’ again as he stared at Yvonne who was walking up the stairs. I understood, but I pretended not to for the same reason.

“I also realized the way Yvonne would look at Grandfather, so I deduced that Grandfather must have seen you get hit. To walk free, there was no doubt that Yvonne would think to kill the only witness. And with Grandfather’s current physical state, no one would suspect it if he passed in his sleep.”

“…”

“…”

Yvonne’s expression turned ashen.

Madeline had seen through her plans all along!

Even Jeremy’s disappointment toward her was fake for they had joined forces to sniff her out!

Seeing the shift in Yvonne’s expression, it finally made sense to Karen.

Without holding back, Karen landed a resounding slap across Yvonne’s face. “Yvonne Yaleman! So this is what I get after everything I’ve done for you? I fetched you back from overseas, I gave you a place to stay, I made sure you’re well-fed, and I even gave you allowance to spend! How could you think to steal from me? I’ll kill you for stealing my money!”

“I didn’t, Aunty Karen! Don’t believe her lies!” Yvonne continued to argue. “I’m being framed! They have no proof!”

“Of course, we have proof,” Madeline replied nonchalantly, crushing the last embers of hope within Yvonne. “While this piece of evidence may not prove that you stole and attacked others, it proves that you were the one who dressed like me and sneaked into the nursing home to poison the old master’s tea cakes. You then shifted the blame to me.”

“What? You were the one who poisoned the old master?” Karen was baffled.

Yvonne sobbed and shook her head. “I didn’t poison anyone! I didn’t hit anyone!”

“You did!”

A strong voice sounded and Yvonne’s expression froze as she turned in the direction of the voice.

Her spine grew cold when she saw the person. She was utterly screwed.

Karen turned to look as well and was taken by surprise. “Old… Old Master?”

The care worker pushed Old Master Whitman into the room.

Yvonne’s lips twitched as she felt her body grow cold.

The old master might not be in the best state of mind, but his eyes were sharp and awake.

He glared at Yvonne and spat out the words slowly but clearly.

“You… That day… You were the one. I saw. You ran down the stairs with a jewelry box. There was blood on the box! You… You wanted to run… But did not expect Mad-Madeline to be there. You had no choice, so you hid in the flowerbed. When Madeline came in… she became your scapegoat!”

“…”

While the words were said with difficulty, they were clear and left Yvonne with no way to deny it.

“You! You heard him, Yvonne! How could you still deny that it wasn’t you?” Fuming, Karen slapped Yvonne again.

Yvonne shouted and stopped protesting as she cupped her cheek.

“You b*tch! How could you be so cruel as to steal my money and hit me?! You even pretended to be kind and stayed by my side, you sinister woman!”

“Hmph! She even hit me, let alone you!” The old master scoffed. “That’s not all. She even dressed like Madeline and poisoned the tea cakes! She thought I would never speak again, so she confessed when she beat me!”

“What?” Winston now came to know the truth behind the poisoning. “You’ve been beating the old master this entire time? You even poisoned him and shifted the blame to Madeline?!”

Instantly furious, he turned to slap Yvonne across the face!

“Ah!” Yvonne’s lips bled from the slaps and both her cheeks were donned with purple handprints.

“I’m ashamed to call you my niece, Yvonne Yaleman! What is wrong with you, you psychological pervert?!”

“She’s definitely wrong in the head. Or why would… she fall in love with her cousin? For Jeremy to like her, she did so much and shifted… the blame to Madeline so that… she could break them up!”

Winston and Karen were shocked when they heard the old master state the reason behind Yvonne’s actions.

Jeremy was shocked too, but Madeline appeared rather calm.

She had guessed long ago that the only reason this woman would go to such ruthless ends was because of her twisted love for Jeremy.
