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

Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1151

The breaking news online?

Madeline had just woken up and her mind was muddled.

“You and Jeremy are trending, Maddie.” Ava’s tone was heavy and it told Madeline that they were not trending for a good reason.

Tapping into Twitter, Madeline’s eyes fell onto her and Jeremy’s name topping the search bar.

Furthermore, Ryan’s name was there as well.

Paparazzi had apparently caught onto last night’s incident by the river, and with a few dramatic touches, the story had begun to spread on the internet.

Madeline scrolled through the images online with flames beginning to flare in her eyes.

The scene of Ryan hugging her and forcing a kiss on her had been turned into a scene of Ryan and her in a passionate bout of lip-locking.

Jeremy, who had appeared to protect her, was turned into the homewrecker with the intention to break the sweet couple apart.

Her struggles and attempts to push Ryan away were not photographed at all.

It was evident that the media had done so to make their story trend.

They had succeeded.

Two of Glendale’s bachelors were fighting each other for a woman’s affections.

Among the images uploaded was one with Jeremy holding Ryan’s collar and punching the man.

Madeline read the comments and found that almost everyone was scolding Jeremy for his actions while siding with Ryan who seemed to be the victim in this case.

Madeline was now completely awake.

Ava’s voice sounded over the phone. “Didn’t you say Ryan agreed to sign the divorce papers that day, Maddie? Now everyone who doesn’t know the whole story is claiming that Jeremy is trying to break your marriage apart!

“Just show your divorce papers, Maddie. That’ll shut those internet trolls up! You don’t even know how horrible their comments are!”

Madeline knew that Ava was angry on her behalf, but she could not post the divorce papers online. Madeline remained calm. “Don’t worry, Ava. I’ll deal with this. Let me wash up first and I’ll call you back later.”

After hanging up, annoyance surfaced on Madeline’s features.

She was about to get up when Jeremy’s hand around her waist pulled her back.

Madeline snapped her head back to find the man burying his head in the crevice of her neck as he greedily took in her scent.

“Are you awake, Jeremy?”

“I heard and I saw,” Jeremy spoke calmly as he slowly opened his eyes, “Let me deal with it.”

Madeline turned around to hug him and apologized. “It’s my fault for being impulsive. I shouldn’t have agreed to marry Ryan at all in the first place.”

“It’s not your fault.” Jeremy was well aware that both the wedding back then and the trending headline today were the results of someone else’s schemes.

That person’s goal was still the same—for Jeremy to disappear.

It was because Jeremy knew a dirty secret.

Pushing Jeremy out to stand under heavy scrutiny was a part of the plan.

The first thing Madeline did when she got up was to have someone try to kick the headline about them off the trendings list as she prepared the documents she needed to announce that her and Ryan’s marriage had been one in name only.

As she was making preparations, she suddenly received a call from the lab.

“Are you free to come over, Miss Montgomery?” the chemist asked politely. “We’ve already run a test on the blood sample and there are some details that I need to tell you.”

Madeline glanced at Jeremy who was looking at his phone.

She turned her head and responded softly, “Of course. I’ll be there shortly.”

As he was focused on his phone, Jeremy did not realize Madeline was talking on the phone.

He had finished reading the so-called breaking news, which was about Madeline reuniting with her ex-husband with a bad temper who got physical with Ryan Jones.

The people online were calling him blind.

These people were not only scolding him like no tomorrow, but their heinous words had extended to Madeline as well.

Madeline was about to look for an excuse to go to the lab by herself when Jeremy suddenly appeared in front of her.

“Stay home and take care of Pudding, Linnie. I’ll go and deal with this.”

While Madeline was indeed looking for a good reason to leave the house, she did not want him to deal with such a tricky matter himself either.

“How do you plan to deal with it?” she asked.

“I promised I wouldn’t go overboard, right? Just wait for me at home, okay? It’ll be alright.”

The man gently caressed the back of her head before turning to walk out the door coolly.

“Jeremy,” Madeline called out after him.

The man turned around and gave an assuring smile in response to the worry in her eyes. “Don’t worry, just wait for me at home.”

Madeline nodded. After watching him drive away, she headed to the lab.

On the way to Whitman Corporation, Jeremy made two phone calls, the second one to Ryan.

He answered the phone calmly within the first few rings. “How do you still have the time to call me now? You must’ve seen the things online, haven’t you? What are you going to do about it?”

Jeremy replied nonchalantly, “Is this you admitting to being the person behind all of this, then?”

Ryan did not reply and only chuckled subtly. “There has always been two things that hinder men ever since the beginning of time, Jeremy Whitman. One of them, women, and the other one, authority and fame.

“You chose the former and that has become your Achilles heel.” Ryan paused. “I could give you the chance to spend your last moments with the woman you love, Jeremy, if only you didn’t know so much.”

Ryan hung up the phone as if he had already won Jeremy.

Jeremy removed the Bluetooth earphone and stared heavily at the road before him. His dark eyes sparkled with an intelligent flare.

Driving toward Whitman Corporation, he was met with a large group of people made up of reporters, journalists, and passersby looking for gossip before he even reached the entrance.

Someone suddenly shouted, “Jeremy Whitman is here!”

Everyone’s gaze fell on the car Jeremy was driving over and they crashed toward him like a wave.

Jeremy’s car was immediately surrounded.

All sorts of doubts, questions, and even words that held personal attacks began to sound in the air.

“Shouldn’t you respond to what’s trending online, Mr. Whitman?”

“Have you gotten back together with your old flame, Eveline Montgomery?”

“Do you admit to breaking someone else’s marriage apart?”

Sitting in front of his computer screen, Ryan’s lips curled into an intrigued smile as he watched the live stream from Whitman Corporation’s main entrance.

The reporters’ questions only sounded worse as they went on.

“You and Eveline were caught buying a new house together some time ago. Does that mean you’ve been having an affair since then?”

“Eveline Montgomery is the Jones family’s daughter-in-law, yet she’s secretly having an affair with you. You’ve destroyed Mr. Jones’ marriage while Eveline Montgomery was caught cheating. Do you two not fear the consequences of being so open in public?”

At that, the car door opened with a click.

Jeremy’s tall figure took a step toward the crowd, overwhelming them with his domineering aura. The group of people fell into pin-drop silence.

A male reporter who Ryan had bribed turned the camera to Jeremy’s face as he began to question. “How could you do such a thing despite being one of Glendale’s prominent persons, Jeremy Whitman? Do you think you’re still worthy of the title as Glendale’s number one young master?

“Not to mention Eveline Montgomery. The two of you have already divorced, yet she’s still having an affair with you. She cheated despite her status as someone’s wife while you seduced someone who is already married. The two of you had it coming for being condemned by the internet!” The male reporter spoke as if he was being impartial when his words were meant to mislead and accuse.

Most of the crowd supported this man.

Jeremy’s cold gaze was sharp as his words punctured the air. “I don’t care what you want to say about me, but you leave my wife out of this.”

“Chupse…”

The crowd sucked in a sharp breath of air at Jeremy’s response while that male reporter merely scoffed. “Your wife? That’s Ryan Jones’ wife!”

Having had enough, Jeremy grabbed the man by his collar. “She’s my wife and will only ever be my wife!” he emphasized frostily as his eagle-sharp eyes stared into the man who was shivering.

The man trembled and immediately urged the passersby. “Quick, look! Jeremy Whitman is hitting people! He can’t explain the vile things he has done with Eveline Montgomery, so he’s trying to kill me now!”

The people by the side were easily influenced and started blowing Jeremy’s actions out of proportion.

Sitting by the computer, Ryan watched the scene before with satisfaction.

Thinking that Jeremy’s reputation would take a huge plummet, he was about to turn his computer off when Madeline suddenly made her way through the crowd toward Jeremy.

At the same time, the internet suddenly erupted with a piece of news that threw all of Ryan’s hard work out the window!

Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1153

Jeremy was shocked as well to see Madeline appear in front of him. “Why are you here, Linnie?”

Madeline walked up to Jeremy and smiled. “You said it yourself, didn’t you? That I’m your wife. Then as husband and wife, by your side is where I should’ve stood in the first place.”

She took his hand and averted her sharp gaze to the male reporter as she spoke clearly, “Listen properly. My husband’s name is Jeremy Whitman, not Ryan Jones!”

“…” Faced with Madeline’s aura, the man was lost for words.

It took a few seconds before he finally reacted and mocked. “You’re still Mr. Jones’ legal wife, Eveline Montgomery, yet here you are standing by Jeremy Whitman’s side and calling him your husband. What do you take Mr. Jones for?”

The man’s gaze was filled with disdain, and his tone was mocking.

“You’re still the lady of one of Glendale’s richest families. Do you not feel shameful for cheating and saying these things? Or do you think this is something to be proud of?”

Madeline remained unfazed. “You’re right, I am proud of it. How can I not be when I have such a perfect
