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

Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1291

The last thing Madeline expected was for Ryan to suddenly appear before her eyes.

He clearly said that he had something to do. That was why he called the driver to send them out instead, so why was he here now?

Ryan’s thin lips curled into a smile as he watched the colors drain from Madeline’s face. “You must be surprised, aren’t you?” He smiled. “I’m surprised too. Who would’ve thought that you’d be so smart?”

“Ryan!” Jeremy ignored his injuries and rushed to stand in front of Madeline, suppressing the pain from his wounds as he protected her behind him.

His sharp eagle-like eyes bore into Ryan.

“Fight me like a man. Don’t threaten me with my wife’s safety.”

“Your wife?” Ryan scoffed, his tone mocking. “You must’ve forgotten, Jeremy Whitman, but Eveline Montgomery is my wife. She has been for more than half a year.”

Madeline had to admit that when she came to know that Jeremy was the one who set fire to Montgomery Manor and killed her parents, she was determined to sever all ties with Jeremy no matter how he begged.

Then, Ryan appeared. The man helped her and gave her warmth. When he proposed, she agreed.

Now that she thought about it, be it his kindness or his full-round care, everything the man did was to achieve his ulterior motives.

Ryan said he liked and fancied her, but it would be more accurate to say that he was using and controlling her.

The light in Madeline’s eyes darkened as she walked toward Ryan fearlessly. “What do you want, Ryan? Why do all of this? Let’s all just lay everything on the table. There’s no point beating around the bush anymore.”

“Come back, Linnie.” Jeremy took Madeline’s hand and pulled her back to him.

Ryan watched the loving sight, his deep gaze falling on Madeline’s features. “Would you be able to help me if I told you?”

“You have to say it first.” Madeline did not fear him.

Ryan smirked, a cold glint sparkling in his eyes.

“I want Jeremy to die, and I want you to stay by my side forever as my woman, Eveline.”

Madeline was speechless as she did not expect Ryan’s response.

Jeremy was enraged. He could not bear to hear another man think of Madeline like that.

“You must be aware, Ryan, that your actions have long since breached multiple laws. You cannot run forever.”

“Are you trying to urge me to kill you before I get caught, then?” Ryan’s gaze turned frostier.

Physically speaking, Jeremy was not in any condition to fight him, but his aura and the sharpness in his eyes did not dwindle.

There was nothing much he feared anymore. If he were to say something, then it might just be the fear of losing Madeline. He was afraid that she would have to spend every day and night alone without him.

Madeline felt sparks flying in the air, but she was more worried about Jeremy’s current situation.

Jeremy would definitely fall into Ryan’s trap if the latter did anything.

She did not want to see Jeremy more hurt than he already was.

Without hesitation, Madeline stood in front of Jeremy. “I’ll go back with you, Ryan.”

Jeremy felt his heart sink.

“Don’t go, Linnie.” Jeremy tried to hold her back, but he saw the unswayed determination on her face.

“Are you certain? You’ll never get to see him again if you leave with me.” The corners of Ryan’s lips quirked into a shadow of a smile. “If this happens again—”

“If this happens again, then you can shoot me in the heart,” Madeline finished the sentence for him.

Ryan clenched his thin lips in admiration for Madeline’s courage.

He glanced at Jeremy, the latter’s eyes no longer holding the same sharp glint in them, and raised his hand in front of Jeremy to pull Madeline into his arms.

Caught off guard, Madeline found herself imprisoned there and unable to fight her way out.

“Ryan!”

Jeremy stepped up to stop him, but the tearing agony from the wound on his calf shot up at the use of a little strength. It was not an easy injury to heal from, and blood began to seep out from it again. It dyed the layers of bandages bright red.

Madeline’s heart lurched at the sight. “Jeremy!”

Instinctively, she felt the urge to run towards him but Ryan tightened his grip around her shoulders.

“Don’t you understand? The closer you get to him, the more pain he will suffer,” Ryan warned quietly into Madeline’s ear.

Madeline balled her fists and bit her lip. “You won’t get away with this, Ryan. You’ll be arrested for this!”

Ryan tugged his lips into a light and carefree smile. “Then, I’ll just have to make sure that I achieve my goal before I get caught.”

Madeline glared at Ryan’s gleeful gaze. She had never felt so hopeless.

“Don’t leave with him, Linnie.” Jeremy’s tone was borderline begging.

Madeline’s eyes burned, and she did not dare look at the expression Jeremy wore. Instead, she opted to face the floor. “Get some rest. If ever there comes a chance…”

‘If ever there comes a chance, I’ll run toward you without a care in the world. But I can’t do that now, Jeremy.’

Madeline swallowed the words back.

She suppressed the heartache in her chest and spoke indifferently, “Let’s go.”

“Linnie!”

Jeremy placed a hand on the wall to support himself and stood up to run after her, but her turning around seemed to have added to his pain.

“Linnie!”

Bulging veins were seen on the back of Jeremy’s hand as the joints on his fingers cracked.

Watching Madeline’s figure walking farther away, he continued to run after her longingly.

Blood streamed from the reopened wound, leaving a line of blood that trickled down his calf and dripped onto the long corridor.

The petite frame in his eyes never turned back as it slowly vanished from sight.

Bang! Jeremy slammed his fist against the wall as a harsh glint bled from his deep alluring eyes. “Your game ends here, Ryan!”

…

Sean continued to wait by the waiting area downstairs and was surprised to see Ryan walking over with Madeline in his arms.

He quickly made his way to her. “When did you come here, Mr. Jones?”

Ryan gave a small and gentle smile. “My driver told me that Eveline wasn’t feeling very well. I was just close by, so I quickly came over.”

His explanation made sense, so Sean did not suspect it. However, his words only solidified Madeline’s belief that Ryan was privy to the littlest changes in her location.

“Are you alright, Eveline? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?” Sean asked attentively.

Madeline shook her head and replied in a meaningful tone, “With how much you care and look after me, Rye, I’m afraid it’s almost impossible for me to not be alright.”

Ryan merely smiled in response.

Sean could feel something was off, but he could not pin it exactly.

Without thinking much into it, Sean looked around Madeline. “Where’s your mother, Eveline?”

Madeline suddenly remembered that she was going to find Eloise. Ryan’s sudden appearance had kicked the thought from her mind.

“Don’t worry, she’ll be alright. I’ll go have someone look for her.” Ryan’s tone was light. He brought Madeline back first.

Night fell and there was still no sign of Eloise.

Knowing that Ryan was in the study, Madeline made her way there and asked, “You’re hiding my mom, aren’t you, Ryan? Is this your way of warning and punishing me?”

Ryan was reading when she entered the room. His pale fingers stopped flipping the page as he lifted his face. The starry gray eyes under the black-rimmed glasses shone with a dark glint. “You want me to tell you where your mother is? Sure. Beg me.”

His response proved Madeline right.

She rushed up to him in infuriation. “Is there even a shred of conscientiousness within you, Ryan? Does tormenting the people around me bring you glee? Just what did I do to offend you?”

“Who said you offended me at all? In fact, I admire you a lot.” Ryan slowly got up, his lean figure and immense aura towering over Madeline’s petite frame.

“The only mistake you made was falling in love with Jeremy Whitman.” He took off his glasses, the dark swirls in his eyes becoming more evident without a layer in between. “It must feel horrible to lose the person who matters the most to you, huh? Then blame the Whitman family.”

Whitman family?

Madeline did not understand. She wanted to know more, but Ryan did not seem to have the intent to explain further.

He quirked the corner of his lips and stared at the sharp glint in Madeline’s eyes. All he wanted to do at that moment was to extinguish that light.

“You overheard my call in the study this morning, didn’t you?” Ryan questioned. Madeline’s sparkling eyes flashed with something that solidified his guess.

He continued to speak, “So you knew that Jeremy was in Kindred Hospital. That’s why you intentionally voiced your desire to take a walk outside in front of me. You did it in front of your father, therefore I had no other option but to let you go.

“You claimed that you wanted to go to the cherry blossom park when in truth, you merely wanted to visit Jeremy in Kindred Hospital. That’s why you gave a location close to the hospital.”

Madeline remained unmoving as Ryan gave her a good look, his tall figure taking a step closer to her back.

“Pretending that you were unwell when the closest hospital to you was Kindred, I really have to applaud you for your intellect.” Ryan’s lips curled into a faint smile as he leaned down by Madeline’s face. His hot breath warmed her ear. “What you don’t know is that I have a precise locator and a listening device embedded in the new phone I gave you.”

What?

Madeline widened her eyes in shock.

She had assumed that Ryan would place a locator in her phone, but she never expected a listening device too!

Madeline felt her body go cold as she took out her phone in disgust.

Before Ryan’s eyes, she threw the phone roughly at the floor.

With a crack, the screen shattered.

“Ryan Jones, you pervert!”

Ryan’s eyes darkened. He suddenly reached out to grab Madeline’s chin, pushing her against the wall.
