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

Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1001

Lana looked at the figure that was reflected behind her and felt her heart skip a beat.

She turned her head slowly, and immediately, Jeremy’s handsome yet terrifyingly grim face was reflected in her eyes.

The man was standing with his back against the light. His very being was exerting a tremendous amount of pressure on them, as if there was an iceberg on their shoulders. At this moment, he was emitting a terrifying aura.

Lana felt her heart skip a beat, but she quickly calmed down and remained cocky. “Jeremy, did you kidnap me? Let me go now!”

Her tone was as cocky as usual. Of course, she knew she would not be able to fool Jeremy anymore as he had remembered everything.

Lana looked at the emotionless man and lifted her head as much as she could.

“Jeremy, you’re such a smart man, yet don’t you know who’s more compatible with you? Eveline’s not a match for you. As long as you stay with me and agree to be my man, I’ll let you experience the real joy of being a man—”

Slap! Jeremy directly slapped Lana across her face.

“Ah!”

Lana yelped in pain, yet Jeremy still had no emotions on his face.

However, the colder and calmer he was, the more one would feel that this was the calm before the storm.

Lana did not know how many slaps she had received these past few days. Her face felt hot, and she started tasting blood in her mouth again.

Jeremy had exerted so much strength into that slap. It was clear how much he despised her and wanted to chop her into pieces.

Before Lana could register the pain, Jeremy yanked her up by the collar.

The man’s close-up features made Lana’s heart throb.

However, the coldness in Jeremy’s eyes woke her up, and at that moment, she was petrified.

“Jeremy, don’t do anything stupid. I did manipulate you when you lost your memories, but when you almost died on the ship, I was the one who saved you—”

Slap!

“Ah!”

Jeremy slapped her again, and Lana felt her muscles start to cramp from the pain.

“How dare you say that you’re the one who saved me?” Jeremy grabbed Lana’s collar and slowly took away her freedom to breathe.

The man’s eyes were dark and icy. Looking into his eyes, Lana could see the fiery flames of fury and the murderous intent in his frightening stare.

“If you hadn’t tried to get close to me so shamelessly and used Eveline’s trust of Adam to make her take the pills she shouldn’t have taken, I wouldn’t have needed to take her to the island.

“I know Eveline resented me at that time, but she still cared about me. As long as she gave birth to the child safely, I wouldn’t even care if she blamed me, but what did you do instead?”

Jeremy’s eyes became sharp.

“You wanted to kill her.

“You wanted to kill my Linnie!”

“Jeremy, l-let go…” Lana’s face was red, and Jeremy’s grip around her neck was getting tighter and tighter.

“For the sake of Madeline and the children’s safety, I was forced to ask her to leave the ship with the children. I knew that Linnie was in a lot of pain and was reluctant to let me go, but she had to. I could imagine how much pain she was in when she thought I had died at sea.

“However, I didn’t die. I was saved by an evil woman like you out of your ‘so-called’ kindness. You even manipulated my memory loss and made me believe that we were dating. Heh, dating?”

There was a look of mockery in Jeremy’s eyes.

“Lana, you’re pathetic. Even though I had lost my memories and even though I thought you were my woman, I never once touched you at all!”

“…” Lana did not expect Jeremy to mock and humiliate her at this moment. In her torment, she felt humiliated as well.

She was extremely confident ever since she was young and thought all men would be attracted to her. Even if it was not all men in the world, at least the men she was into would worship her like she was a goddess.

However, Jeremy was an exception. No matter how she tempted him, he was still like an iceberg who was unable to be melted by her charm and passion.

Naomi was shaking in fear as she listened to every word. She knew Jeremy’s target was Lana, so she pretended to pass out and play dead at one side.

When Lana thought Jeremy was going to suffocate her, he let go of his hand.

“Cough, cough!” Lana lay on the ground in a fetal position while coughing violently.

However, after wheezing and gasping for air for a moment, she was smacked in the face with a pack of cigarettes.

Those were the cigarettes she smoked and also the ones she gave Jeremy back then. However, the ones she gave Jeremy was added with something else.

When Jeremy smacked the cigarette box on her face suddenly, Lana knew what was going on.

“What did you put in the cigarettes?” Jeremy asked coldly.

Lana did not dare answer. She could only pretend to cough from shock.

Jeremy did not have time to beat around the bush with her, so he walked to the other side coldly.

When Lana saw this, she lifted her leg to kick Naomi who was playing dead.

“Get up! Bite the ropes off for me!” she ordered in a low voice.

However, Naomi continued to play dead. She thought Jeremy was only going to seek revenge on Lana. She only followed Lana into the car groggily after she drank too much. She was a victim here.

“Naomi!” Lana shrieked. When she was about to kick her again, she felt cold liquid pouring from her head to her toes.

“Ah!” Lana yelled.

Naomi bolted up abruptly since Jeremy was also pouring the liquid on her.

Then, when they took a whiff, they realized it was not ice water. It was gasoline!

Lana and Naomi were being drenched in gasoline!

“Jeremy, Jeremy, please let me go! Let me go now!” Lana was horrified, her face turning red and white simultaneously.

Jeremy towered over her with no emotions in his eyes.

“I want you to get a taste of how my in-laws died.”

“What?” Lana widened her eyes. “How dare you, Jeremy?! I’m Miss Johnson of the Stygian Johnson Gang! If something happens to me, my brother will never forgive you! You—”

“Do you think I’m scared of your brother?”

“…”

Lana was stunned. As she looked into Jeremy’s calm eyes, she knew Jeremy was not scared.

This man was not afraid of anything.

The only thing he was scared of was losing Madeline.

At this moment, Lana saw Jeremy taking out a matchbox from his pocket and reaching out for a match.

Lana backed away in horror. However, she still threatened him arrogantly, “Jeremy, do you really have the guts to kill me? If I’m dead, you’ll be finished! Do you know what I added to your cigarettes? Slow-acting poison!”

Slow-acting poison?

Jeremy’s eyes darkened.

Lana laughed while feeling pleased with herself. “You can only treat your confusion and delusions by continuing to smoke the cigarettes I gave you. If not, the poison will seep into your bones slowly, and eventually, you’ll be tortured to death by the poison!

“I can also tell you that Adam was the one who created this slow-acting poison that has the ability to control people. There’s no cure for it at the time being! You have to depend on the cigarettes, or else you’ll die! So, are you still going to keep me tied up? If I die, you’ll die too!”

Lana’s cockiness triggered Jeremy to strike the match. “Since I won’t be able to continue living, then I’ll send you off first.”

“…”

“No! This has nothing to do with me!” Naomi finally said something, “Jeremy, no, Mr. Whitman, it has nothing to do with me! This is between you and Lana. Why do you have to involve me in this? Please let me go! Let me go now!”

Lana kicked Naomi angrily. “Are you going to just think of yourself at a time like this? Naomi, don’t forget how you treated Eveline back then!”

Naomi was fuming as she lifted her leg and kicked Lana. “I was only carrying out your orders! Lana Johnson, you’re killing me!”

“Naomi, how dare you kick me! You…” Lana yelled angrily when suddenly, she saw a spark from the corner of her eyes.

She lifted her head and saw that Jeremy had already lit a match.

“Lana, my in-laws are waiting for you. Remember to repent your sins when you see them.”

“N-No!”

Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1003

“No!”

Lana was so terrified that she started blabbering. In the next second, she saw Jeremy throwing the match on a stack of wooden boxes on the side.

It was as if the boxes had been doused in gasoline as well. The tiny flame on the match suddenly grew and started spreading all over the place.

However, before the fire could approach them, Lana and Naomi were scared frozen. Cold sweat started to form on both of their bodies.

Jeremy looked coldly at Lana. At this moment, she was so scared that her face was completely white.

“Lana, I won’t let you die just like this.”

Even more intense flames were burning behind his sharp eyes.

“You used me to kill my in-laws and caused me to never be able to be together with Linnie. So, I want you to slowly walk toward death while you’re in fear. I want you to experience how it feels to be framed and tortured.”

“…”

After he said that, Lana saw his tall and slender figure walking further and further away without any concerns until he had walked out of the abandoned factory.
