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

Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1051

Jeremy looked at her with interest. “What is it?”

Lana stepped to the side, lit a cigarette, and started smoking. She thought for a moment before suddenly asking Jeremy, “Jeremy, do you know of anyone else with considerable influence who secretly protects Eveline? Apart from her parents, of course.”

Jeremy’s eyes changed instantly. “Why do you ask?”

“Because…” Lana spat out the smoke and continued, “Because there’s a mysterious man behind my brother. My brother seems to be a little fearful of this man. He doesn’t allow me to provoke Eveline because that’s also what is wanted of him by the man. So I’m curious about who this man is.”

Knowing this situation, Jeremy was really surprised.

Regardless of who this mysterious man was, he was helping Madeline.

This seemed to be a good thing.

However, who was this man who was able to make Yorick somewhat concede?

While Jeremy was pondering this, he suddenly heard Lana reluctantly saying, “Jeremy, you saw Yorick’s attitude just now as well. I’ve done so many things for him in the Stygian Johnson Gang for so many years, but he has been raising his hand against his own sister because of that Eveline. Since he’s so heartless, he can’t blame me for being ruthless.”

Jeremy glanced at Lana, then asked, “What are you planning to do?”

Lana touched her swollen cheek. “The Stygian Johnson Gang’s accounts have always been handled by me. You know, most of the business conducted by the Stygian Johnson Gang should not be known by others. After the money is obtained, it must be cleaned before it can be used with integrity.”

While she was saying this, she walked up to Jeremy with full of trust in her eyes. She said, “Jeremy, I’ve already considered it. Let’s go and strike out by ourselves. In the future, you’ll be in charge of the external business while I will be responsible for money laundering. You work outside and I work inside. Don’t you think we’ll be like husband and wife like this?”

Lana’s eyes lit up, and she immediately wanted to lean on Jeremy.

Jeremy pretended to tidy up his clothes to avoid Lana. Then, he tentatively asked, “Is the ledger you mentioned a record of all the accounting made by the Stygian Johnson Gang over the years? Will Yorick let you take care of such an important thing?”

Hearing this, Lana appeared to be arrogant. “It’s exactly because I’m his sister that’s why they let me take care of such an important ledger.”

Jeremy looked at Lana with a vague smile. “It turns out that you’re actually so capable. Looks like I’ve underestimated you before.”

Lana smiled at Jeremy gently. “Honey, we have all the time in the future. You can get to know me slowly—hiss!” Lana wanted to ask Jeremy for a kiss, but the corners of her mouth suddenly stung badly.

“Go back to the room and rest. I’m about to go out to have a talk about a deal. I’ll discuss it in detail with you when I return.”

Lana was indeed exhausted. Madeline had pushed her into the swimming pool earlier and made her unable to lift her head up. She even threw her into the swimming pool. The muscles all over her body were aching now.

After Jeremy left, he took out his mobile phone, typed in a few Arabic numbers, and sent them out. Then, he drove around the main road a few times before finally entering a cafe with a few people.

A well-dressed man was sitting in the corner by the window. Jeremy walked over and sat down, saying coldly, “I’ve obtained news regarding the ledger you had mentioned before. I request to perform the mission immediately. I don’t want to waste time. You guys have no ways to guarantee the safety of my wife and daughter.”

The man sitting opposite him replied politely, “Jeremy, it’s a good thing that you’ve obtained news regarding the ledger, but the foundation of the Stygian Johnson Gang is solid. They have great power in F Country. It’ll be better for us not to rush into it.”

“My daughter was made mute by that psychotic woman. How can you have me continue pleasing that woman calmly?”

The man smiled kindly. “Jeremy, we’ve all seen it. You handled it well.”

‘Handled it well?’

Jeremy found it ironic. Only he knew how much pain he was enduring.

He suddenly regretted his decision to join IBCI.

After a few seconds of silence, Jeremy calmly parted his lips. “There seems to be a person behind Yorick. Based on my understanding of Lana’s words, Yorick seems to be very fearful of this person.”

The man paused when he heard the words, then said, “This man is our colleague.”

“Colleague?” Jeremy’s eyes narrowed. “Who’s this person?”

The person hesitated with difficulty before saying, “It’s not convenient to disclose his identity for the time being. This is for the sake of your safety and the mission.”

Jeremy did not want to push them for the answer. He knew the rules as well, so he did not ask any more questions.

It was just that he really did not expect someone to have had already penetrated into the Stygian Johnson Gang and was even able to make Yorick obey his orders. Despite the person’s influence, he was still unable to uproot the Stygian Johnson Gang, which showed how solid the foundation of the Stygian Johnson Gang was.

After Jeremy left the cafe, he drove to the gates of the kindergarten where Jackson and Lillian were studying.

He waited until the end of school, but he still did not see the brother and sister duo coming out from the kindergarten.

Feeling puzzled, he got out of the car and went to ask their teacher in charge.

The teacher in charge recognized Jeremy’s face and spoke a little apprehensively, “I’m really sorry about this, Mr. Whitman. It’s because I didn’t look after Lillian well that she suffered a fright.

“Mrs. Whitman said Lillian isn’t able to come to school these days. Jackson has also given a notice of absence.”

After hearing her reply, Jeremy’s mood became extremely heavy all of a sudden.

He drove to Whitman Manor, parked the car far away, and walked to the door.

Coincidentally, the moment he arrived at the gates, he happened to see Jackson and Lillian playing in the yard.

There was a pure smile on Lillian’s delicate and cute face, but the only thing she did was smile. She was not communicating with Jackson at all.

She only communicated by either patting on Jackson’s hand or using her finger to point ahead. Her little pink mouth had not moved at all.

Jeremy’s thin lips were pressed tightly together. His eyes were already heating up, and his Adam’s apple was trembling as he sniffled.

Lillian really could not speak anymore.

Jeremy clenched his fists and blamed himself painfully.

He felt he had no right left to face this child again.

He asked himself, ‘What have I given this child?

‘Nothing at all.’

Never had he given her fatherly love or care.

He had never been a qualified father.

Jeremy felt guilty and blamed himself. As he was about to turn away and leave, a small ball rolled to his feet suddenly.

He looked down and caught a glimpse of Lillian running happily in his direction.

She came to pick up the ball, but when she saw Jeremy, Lillian’s approaching footsteps gradually stopped.

In those big and bright eyes, there were unexpected defensiveness and insecurity.

Jeremy was heartbroken. He picked up the ball and passed it to Lillian. However, Lillian looked at Jeremy and only shook her head. She pressed her lips tightly, turned, and ran away.

The instant the child ran away from him, Jeremy felt as if the color of the sky had turned gray.

“Lillian.” He called out the child’s name and walked toward Lillian with the ball in his hand. However, Lillian resisted and hid behind Jackson while shaking her head, not saying anything.

Jeremy could even notice the disappointment in the way Jackson was looking at him.

“Daddy, why are you helping the bad woman who bullied Mommy to bully my younger sister?” Jackson questioned him seriously.

Obviously, the bad woman Jackson was referring to was Lana.

Jeremy did not know how to explain it. He was a man with too many heavy missions and burdens on his shoulders, yet he could not take care of his own little family.

After thinking about it, he knelt down and looked at the two children with a gentle smile, handing the ball over. “Lillian, this is your ball, take it.”

However, Lillian did not respond. Instead, she raised her clear eyes and looked behind Jeremy carefully.

Jeremy noticed the abnormality. He stood up straight and looked over…

Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1053

In fact, Jeremy already knew who had come over when he heard the familiar footsteps.

The moment he looked back, it was indeed Madeline he saw.

This was the woman he wished he could merge with into his own blood and life.

Madeline did not even spare Jeremy a glance, however. She walked straight to the two children. With a gentle and loving smile on her face, she touched the two cute and rosy faces. “Jack, go on in with your sister. Mommy will bake a cake for both of you in a while.”

Jackson nodded obediently. He held Lillian’s fair and tender little hand with his own small hand, glancing at Jeremy before turning away.

After watching the two children enter the house, the smile on Madeline’s face gradually dissipated.

“How dare you still come to see Lillian?” Madeline mocked him sarcastically. “Have you seen it now? Lillian can’t speak anymore. Are you satisfied with your girlfriend’s master plan?”

Jeremy did not respond to Madeline’s words. He only walked past her and gently put the small ball that was in his hand at the doorstep.

After leaving the ball, he walked off indifferently.

Madeline walked over to pick up the ball and threw it to Jeremy’s back.

The small ball was very light, but it felt as heavy as hundreds of pounds when it hit Jeremy’s back.

He stopped and heard Madeline’s approaching footsteps.

“There’s no one here now, Jeremy. Can’t you tell me now? Why on earth are you staying with Lana?” Madeline’s tone was obviously less aggressive and had turned softer.

“I don’t believe that you can really be so unfeeling. Even if you really don’t love me anymore, you wouldn’t be so cold to the children. The more you’re being so deliberately ruthless, the more suspicious it seems.”

Madeline walked up to him and looked at the man’s cold expression, her gaze sharp. “Jeremy, answer me. If you’re facing troubles, it’d be good enough if you just blink as a response.”

After she finished her sentence, the air went silent for a bit.

After a long interval, Jeremy smiled and raised the corners of his lips. “Eveline, you asking me this means that you still miss me and are hoping for something from me, right?”

He asked her in reply, a similar mocking expression appearing on his handsome face.

“You’re already a bride-to-be who’s going to marry another man. Stop having any more fantasies about me. Instead of us torturing each other, it’d be better for us to let each other go. You go be Madam Jones and don’t bother with who I’m with.”

“Is this the truth in your heart?” Madeline asked earnestly. Her eyes were shimmering as she still held the last glimmer of hope toward him.
