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

Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1181

Madeline did not expect the robber to act in that manner. The river was a broad one, but Madeline knew she should not think twice about it.

Seeing her purse flowing along in the river, without thinking further, she jumped.

The passersby who saw this scene were astonished and gathered around the bridge to observe.

“Is this woman out of her mind?”

“Does she have to take such drastic measures just for a purse?”

“Maybe she has lots of money in the purse!”

The passersby who did not know the truth were all making wild guesses, but to Madeline, the purse contained an item that was way more important than anything else. It was the lifeline for the man she loved most in her life.

After Madeline jumped into the river, she swam for some time before getting her hands on her purse.

She strapped the purse around her back and revealed a smile.

Soon enough, Madeline recomposed herself only to just realize she was in the middle of the river. Besides, she did not know how to swim to begin with!

It was as if she just realized it.

Earlier, her mindset was fixed on getting the purse back that she did not even hesitate.

Perhaps it was a sudden burst of motivation within her subconscious mind that allowed her to swim, but once she calmed herself, she forgot how to swim!

‘Damn it!’

Madeline finally realized the seriousness of the issue.

She had to keep living to bring the reagent back to Jeremy.

“Help!” Madeline started calling for help.

The passersby on the bridge noticed something was odd about Madeline, but no one seemed to be making a move to rescue her.

Even if that person knew how to swim, they just stood there to watch. Some of them were just chit-chatting while taking a video, wanting to upload it later for their friends to see.

Madeline was struggling in the water. She knew no one would offer a helping hand and it was all up to her to save herself.

Water kept gushing into her mouth and nose, making her choke, but Madeline did not give up.

Her mind was on Jeremy, and that was how she got the will to keep living.

It was at this point when she finally got the sense to swim back. Just then, someone suddenly leaped into the river. A man’s strong arms grasped onto her waist tightly.

Madeline could sniff out Ryan’s perfume. She spun around and noticed it was really Ryan who showed up.

She was disgusted that Ryan was physically touching her, especially after that day when Ryan claimed he had deliberately made her dizzy and they shared an intimate night together.

Even though she thought Ryan was lying to her, she still felt disgusted about it.

Madeline knew she should not be behaving rashly in the water, but she still tried her best to shove Ryan away.

In such a helpless situation, Madeline summoned her entire strength to kick her legs and stretch her arms. She was giving it her all to swim back to the riverbank.

She started coughing vigorously and even vomited out a few mouthfuls of water.

Despite the suffering, she took out the item from her purse the moment she reached land. It was only after checking that the bottle of reagent was not damaged that she felt relieved.

Ryan followed her to the riverbank and looked at Madeline who was checking the reagent. He frowned. “You’re willing to discard your life for Jeremy’s sake?”

Madeline ignored him as she was focused on packing her purse. Then, she got up and left the scene.

Ryan grabbed on her hand, yanking her to his front.

Madeline struggled and glared at him with a sharp gaze. “Let me go!”

“Do you have to give such a drastic reaction whenever I touch you just a little?”

“Of course! Because I think you’re dirty!” Madeline replied in a merciless tone. She forcibly shoved Ryan away. “In this world, the only man who can touch me is my husband, Jeremy! Ryan, you make me feel like puking.”

“…”

‘Feel like puking.’

Ryan did not realize that was the impression Madeline currently had of him.

All this while, his impression in everyone else’s eyes was an elegant rich man. Being seen as a disgusting man was never in consideration.

Seeing Madeline turning around and about to leave, Ryan suddenly came forth. Once again, he blocked Madeline’s pathway, and with much force, he pressed on her head to force a kiss on her.

“Don’t make me look down on you, Ryan.” This time, she did not evade nor struggle. She merely blurted out that line with much calm.

Ryan’s actions, to everyone’s surprise, came to a halt.

“Ryan, so what if you have a speck of dirt on me? So what if you end up winning against Jeremy? You’re not that great if you use a method that makes others unsatisfied with it.”

Madeline’s speech made Ryan’s pair of deep-set eyes gleam with dissatisfaction and unpleasantness.

Madeline pushed him away when she noticed that Ryan was staring at her while motionless. She walked away.

She knew that Ryan was currently an overconfident man, and the best way to tackle this sort of man was to tease his underhanded methods.

“Wow, this lady has a nice figure!”

“Hmph, if I knew, I would’ve gone down to save her earlier!”

Hearing the disgusting comments made Madeline realize many people were observing them. Some were even using their phones to take pictures of her.

It was summer, and she was not wearing much clothing. Being in the water earlier had drenched her to her skin. Madeline quickly covered her chest area with her purse and walked over to a man who was still using his phone to take photos of her.

In a domineering spirit, she said, “Delete everything that you’ve taken!” She requested in a fierce tone. Even though she did not know what those people had taken, judging from the lowly comments blurted, she could somehow guess the situation.

The few men who were behaving inappropriately looked down at Madeline and even got excited.

“This chick looks even stunning from near. I’m really regretting not jumping into the river earlier! All credits are given to that baby-faced man!”

“Who are you calling a baby-faced man?” Ryan suddenly appeared behind Madeline.

On an ordinary day, he would look like a well-mannered rich young man. At that moment though, his eyes were giving off a stern vibe. His body was surrounded by a cold atmosphere, making his eyes ooze out a chilling sensation.

“Those pictures that you took of my wife, you’d better delete them all. Or else, we’ll meet in court,” Ryan threatened.

The few men were not satisfied, but hearing Ryan claiming that Madeline was his wife made them obey. They quietly deleted the photos to prevent themselves from getting into trouble.

Madeline did not wish to waste her efforts explaining to those men despite knowing they had misunderstood her relationship with Ryan. After knowing those men had deleted her photos, she then left them.

Ryan was not happy to see Madeline leaving the scene. His eyes were glittering with a desire to conquer her.

…

Madeline got back into the car. She took a towel and casually wiped her face before immediately igniting the engine of her car to head back home.

From time to time, she would look at the purse placed on the passenger seat next to her as if doing that made her feel like the reagent was safe.

That reagent was precious to her. It would not be available even with lots of money.

She was willing to pay a huge price to get her hands on the reagent.

Madeline’s anxiety was all focused on Jeremy. Tonight, she would have to administer the third dose. She could not turn back.

As she was driving, Madeline suddenly felt like all her energy was draining from her. It was to the point where she felt like sleeping.

She shook her head, wondering what was happening to her. She reached out for a bottle of mineral water and took two gulps of it. Then, she tried to calm herself.

After ten minutes, she finally made her way to Whitman Manor.

Madeline took her purse and got out of the car. She saw Jackson and Lillian playing in the courtyard while Jeremy was watching them quietly from nearby.

He could only do that since Lillian despised Jeremy getting close to her.

At that time, Jeremy noticed Madeline was back. He had not the slightest idea where she went, but he noticed that she was drenched and her hair was wet. Under the sunset, her face appeared as pale as snow.

Jeremy got worried and ran to Madeline. “Linnie, what’s wrong?”

Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1183

Madeline was feeling uncomfortable, but at the same time, she could not express which part of her was feeling that way.

“Jeremy, I’m feeling dizzy.” Madeline, feeling lethargic, grabbed Jeremy’s hand. “Help me back to the room so I can get some rest.”

As she was speaking, she slowly faced some difficulty in breathing. The face before her slowly became blurry as well.

The next second, she passed out.

“Linnie! Linnie!”

Jeremy was devastated and carried Madeline who was unconscious.

“Linnie!”

He carried her and rushed to the side of his car, feeling anxious.

Jackson and Lillian heard the commotion and turned around to look.

Karen came out of the house as well. She was shocked when she saw Jeremy being all anxious while carrying Madeline who was unconscious.

“Jeremy! What’s wrong with Madeline?!”

“I don’t know. I’m going to send her to the hospital.” Jeremy’s heartbeat was racing madly, but he was trying his best to calm down. “You and dad keep an eye on Lillian and Jack, especially Lillian.”

The moment he grabbed the steering wheel, he noticed his hand that was holding onto Madeline’s leg was covered with blood.

He looked back at the passenger seat and noticed Madeline was wearing black pants. If one did not take a closer look, one would have missed out on the fact that her pants were actually drenched in blood!

‘But why are her pants all bloody?’

Jeremy felt a pang of pain coursing through him.

He could not afford to hesitate any longer as he slammed on the gas pedal and headed to the hospital in full throttle.

On the way to sending Madeline to the emergency department, Jeremy attempted to take away the purse from Madeline’s hand but noticed that she was gripping on it tightly.
