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

Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1341

Following his comment, Madeline fixed her gaze upon the item in Jeremy’s hands.

A thin layer of mist was shrouded in the moonlight, quietly shining on Madeline’s face that had suddenly become much more gentle.

At that moment, she was like a very quiet doll. She was quiet and obedient without moving an inch. Her eyes reflected the colorful rays.

“Jeremy.” Madeline raised her hand and took away the colorful but faded shell from Jeremy’s hand.

Her childhood memories were flashing in her mind vividly.

“This is the shell that I gave to Jeremy,” Madeline said softly, her emotions not as agitated as previously. “Why is it with you? So it’s true that you guys captured Jeremy, right? You stole it from him!”

Jeremy held Madeline’s cold hands. “Linnie, this is the gift you gave to me as a token of love. I never gave it to anyone, and no one ever took it away from me, silly. Listen to me, I’m your Jez.”

Madeline’s eyes gleamed as she focused her gaze on Jeremy. She appeared to be in deep thought, and the more she thought about it, the more she frowned.

“Jeremy? You’re Jeremy? You’re really Jeremy?!” she muttered, raising her hand to touch Jeremy’s face.

The familiar, warm feeling traveled from her fingertips all the way to her heart. Madeline’s eyes looked much softer now, but at the same time, they still looked troubled.

“Why didn’t I manage to recognize you? How is it possible that I can’t even recognize you?”

Madeline was finding it hard to believe. At that point, she was sure that the man before her was the man she loved most.

Jeremy felt even more heartbroken when he saw her blaming herself.

“It’s not your fault, Linnie. You’re just sick. When you’ve recovered, you’ll no longer have problems recognizing me.”

“I’m sick?” Madeline asked, feeling puzzled. It made her feel even worse. “What sort of illness will make me even fail to recognize you? Hiss…” She hit herself in the temple with a closed fist over and over. “What’s wrong with me? It’s so tormenting. Jeremy, it’s too hard for me…”

Jeremy was worried and hugged Madeline. “Don’t be like that, Linnie. Don’t harm yourself.”

After feeling Jeremy’s concern for her, Madeline suddenly got anxious and struggled to free herself from his arms. She grabbed his elbows with both her hands and reminded him in an anxious tone. “Jeremy, quick, take me away! Ryan is a crazy guy. He’ll really do anything!

“Mom, Dad… He took control over my parents. Dad was shot by his men.”

“Everything’s fine, Linnie. Mom and Dad are fine.” Jeremy quickly comforted her when he realized Madeline was starting to lose control over her emotions again.

“No, something is bound to happen. We have to leave, fast!” Feeling insecure, Madeline grabbed Jeremy’s hand. “Jeremy, let’s leave, quick!”

“Calm down, Linnie, calm down!” Jeremy yanked her to his front again.

“Linnie, Mom and Dad are safe now. Don’t be like that. Stop letting your thoughts run wild, Linnie.”

He held onto her shoulders and embraced her fragile body that was being blown by the night breeze. He choked as his eyes reddened.

“It’s me who came too late. It’s me who didn’t protect you well and made you suffer so much, Linnie.”

He touched her head, trying to calm her and stop her from breaking down.

However, Madeline remained agitated as if she did not hear what Jeremy was saying. She tried her best to break free from his arms and insisted on bringing him away.

“Stop saying all these, Jeremy. Let’s go! If Ryan sees you, he’ll kill you!”

“Linnie.”

“Are you leaving or not?! You said you’ll listen to whatever I say, but why aren’t you going when I ask you to go?!”

Madeline suddenly lost control of her emotions as she roared, her red, teary eyes wide open.

“Fine! You’re not leaving right?! I’ll leave if you don’t want to!”

Exasperated, she shoved Jeremy’s hand and spun around. She was not even sure why she would behave so aggressively.

However, as soon as she turned around, Madeline stumbled and fell on her side as if her energy was being drained.

“Linnie!” Jeremy sprinted ahead and grabbed hold of Madeline who had suddenly lost consciousness. “Linnie, Linnie!”

He called out to her anxiously, but Madeline was already unconscious.

Jeremy wrapped his arms around Madeline’s tiny waist and carried her before rushing back into the house.

Feeling Madeline’s icy cold body, Jeremy held her dearly and tried to transfer the warmth from his body to her.

That night, he dared not go to sleep as he was scared that Madeline might have another nightmare. He was afraid she might think of him as a bad guy and secretly run away.

When it was approaching dawn, Jeremy heard a commotion coming from outside. He went out and reminded Karen to keep an eye on Madeline if she woke up.

Karen was puzzled but still nodded and agreed. Just when she wanted to ask about the reason behind it, Jeremy had already spun around and returned to the room.

As Madeline was still sleeping, Jeremy could close his eyes to take a nap.

However, not long after he fell asleep, he started having nightmares. He dreamt that Madeline had escaped again and this made him jitter.

He suddenly woke up because of shock and realized the other half of the bed was empty.

“Linnie.”

Jeremy got out of bed and rushed out of the room. The moment he wanted to head downstairs to look for Madeline, he saw her talking to the two children in the hall downstairs. This made his heart that was beating anxiously suddenly calm down.

Jeremy headed back to the room, cleaned up, and hurriedly changed his clothes. He then ran downstairs to Madeline’s side. All he wanted was to remain by her side and protect her.

“Linnie,” he called out to her.

Madeline, who was watching Lillian drawing, raised her eyes when she heard someone calling her. When she saw that it was Jeremy, she gave out a faint smile.

“You’ve woken up, Jeremy.”

Jeremy was surprised. “Linnie, you can recognize me?”

Madeline smiled and looked at him. “You’re going to bring me over to have my psychological treatment, right? I’m all set. Let’s leave after you’ve eaten something.”

“…” Jeremy was dumbfounded once again.

‘Madeline took the initiative to mention meeting a psychologist.

‘So does that mean she knows she’s sick?’

Jeremy just simply took a bite of breakfast before bringing Madeline over to meet a psychologist.

He did not expect Madeline to be so cooperative and accept the treatment. Even the psychologist said that Madeline’s positive attitude would benefit her in her recovery.

That reply boosted Jeremy’s confidence.

Madeline gently smiled after she noticed the thrilled expression on Jeremy’s face. “Are you very happy that I’ll soon be well?”

Jeremy stopped walking. “Linnie, did you recall something?”

“I just remember what happened yesterday.” Madeline acted intimately by raising her hand and holding onto Jeremy’s arm. She let out a bashful smile, saying, “Jeremy, did we use to go on dates like this while strolling along the streets?”

Hearing her question made Jeremy feel utterly bitter from within.

They almost never went on such dates before.

During the years when she was sincerely in love with him, he totally let her down.

She was his wife, yet he was into another lady who pretended to be her.

Jeremy’s eyes went teary as he nodded. “Yeah, we used to go on dates like this.”

He had no choice but to lie. He could not bring himself to tell her that he used to disappoint her.

“Then, let’s have a date today. Who knows I might remember something?” Madeline suggested.

Jeremy felt a pinch in his heart, but he nodded with a smile. “Sure. Let’s go on a date.”

Madeline smiled brightly. It seemed she was in a better mood now.

Jeremy brought Madeline to the nearby mall for window shopping. Before leaving, Madeline pointed to the bookstore ahead. “The little boy named Jack said he wants to read this particular book. I want to buy it for him.”

Jeremy got the message and entered the bookstore with her while holding her hand.

When Madeline was looking for the book, Jeremy’s attention was caught by a book regarding psychological treatment. He picked it up and looked at a few pages. Then, he raised his eyes and looked at Madeline who was looking for the book not far away. From time to time, he would observe her condition.

Madeline was seriously looking for the book for Jack. After circling two rounds around the bookshelf that was near Jeremy, she finally found the book that Jackson wanted. It was just that the book was placed at the highest spot on the bookshelf.

Even though she was not that short, it would still be hard for her to get the book.

Soon, Madeline thought of Jeremy. She wanted to call out to Jeremy, but just when she spun around, she suddenly felt a shadow behind her. The next second, there was a voice that made her scared. It was like a nightmare ringing in her ears.

“Is this the book that you want? Let me help you get it.”

Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1343

Madeline felt her limbs become icy cold as if she had fallen into an icy cellar and her body was engulfed within the chilly ice cave.

She felt an arm passing over her head. Then, the man behind her brought the book to her front.

“Hold it,” the man spoke once again.

Madeline’s heartbeat went erratic as she quickly spun around when she heard the voice.

When she raised her eyes, she met a pair of gloomy eyes that were gleaming with cunning.

Madeline’s emotions that had stabilized after so much effort were once again being forced to the brink of losing control.

“Ryan.”

Her lips moved as she spat out the word.

Ryan lifted his hand and adjusted his cap, covering his pair of deep eyes. His pale lips were slightly curled up.

“I thought you would’ve forgotten about me,” he said in a tone that sounded almost flirtatious.

Looking at Madeline’s anxious expression, he raised his hands and attempted to touch her face, only for Madeline to evade.

She wanted to escape, but Ryan was blocking her path.

“What do you want? You… What else do you want?” Madeline questioned, unable to speak properly. Fear was brewing in her eyes.

“I’ve said it before. As long as you obey me, I won’t let you be in trouble. However, Eveline, you still fail to heed my words.”
