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

Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1351

It was also at this moment Madeline felt something warm splashing her face.

Then, the dazzling bright red liquid started gurgling from where Ryan’s heart was.

The horrifying sight of blood was reflected in Madeline’s eyes.

She opened her beautiful eyes in dumbfoundedness and could not believe what just happened.

Ryan did not expect that someone would have secretly aimed the gun at him. The bullet passed through his heart, and in an instant, he knew that his life had come to an end.

Yet, it seemed that there was still something he could not let go of. This obsession was still in sight.

Ryan clasped Madeline’s wrist tightly and subconsciously tightened his hold. Then, his eyes gradually lost their luster and focus.

Before he collapsed, Ryan inaudibly uttered some words to Madeline.

Madeline’s eyes widened as she watched Ryan slowly collapsing in front of her eyes. The only thing in her mind right now was the bloody scene she just witnessed and what Ryan said before collapsing.

“Linnie!”

When Madeline was in a daze, she heard a man screaming in her ears.

In the next second, she felt a familiar scent approaching her, and then a pair of strong arms was holding her tightly.

However, Madeline could only see the crimson in front of her right now and felt dizzy.

Before she had time to see the man who was hugging her, her eyes went dark and she fainted.

“Linnie, Linnie!” Jeremy nervously picked the unconscious Madeline up. He also caught the sight of Ryan who had fallen to the ground and could no longer resist.

Jeremy did not expect the police to shoot him, but he could guess that Madeline fainted from shock after witnessing Ryan suddenly collapsing in front of her.

The policemen quickly rushed over, and Jeremy frowned slightly as he looked at Ryan who had his eyes half-opened in a pool of blood.

“Call an ambulance and take him to the hospital right away. Maybe he can still be saved.” After he finished speaking, he immediately left with Madeline in his arms.

Whitman Manor.

Sean was unable to sit still as he waited for news about Madeline. When he suddenly heard a voice coming from outside, he hurriedly strode out.

He spotted Jeremy walking inside with Madeline, so he ran forward nervously. “Eveline, Eveline.”

He called out to her twice. After seeing that Madeline was not responding, he asked Jeremy anxiously, “What’s wrong with Eveline? Why is there blood on her body?”

Jeremy lowered his eyes and looked at the woman in his arms. His eyes were filled with distress. “Don’t worry too much. Linnie just fainted. The blood belongs to Ryan.”

“Ryan?” Sean was shocked. “Why is Ryan’s blood on Eveline’s body? What happened?”

As soon as Jeremy finished talking, Eloise hurried over.

Seeing Madeline lying unconscious in Jeremy’s arms with a lot of bloodstains on her face and dress, Eloise suddenly panicked and nervously grabbed Sean’s hand to question him.

“What’s wrong with her? Sean, what’s wrong with Eveline?”

Sean hurriedly held Eloise’s shoulders and gently soothed her. “It’s okay. Eveline is okay. She’s just asleep, don’t worry.”

Eloise glanced at Jeremy suspiciously. “Is that true?”

Jeremy spoke cooperatively, “It’s true. I’ll take Eveline back to her room for her to get some rest. I’ll ask her to look for you after she wakes up.”

Eloise nodded. “Then hurry up and take Eveline to bed. Let her have a good rest.”

Although she could not recognize the woman Jeremy was holding in his arms to be her baby girl whom she talked about every day, her consideration and concern for Madeline was still evident.

After Jeremy carried Madeline to bed, he called his colleagues to ask about Ryan’s situation.

The colleague who was waiting outside the operating theatre informed him of the latest situation. “The bullet hit him pretty close to the heart and he has lost a lot of blood. I’m afraid the situation is not looking too optimistic.”

Jeremy furrowed his eyebrows when he heard the words. “Why did you shoot him? I was confident that I could make Ryan let my wife go.”

“The police saw that your wife and Ryan seemed to be in a dispute and Ryan looked as if he wanted to forcibly take your wife away. In order to ensure the safety of the hostage and also since Ryan was a wanted criminal, they opened fire.”

Jeremy did not say anything anymore after knowing this.

In fact, he had already thought about it at the time. He was ready to explain to Ryan about the grievances from the previous generations. When that happened, Ryan would naturally release Madeline.

However, he did not expect the police to fire.

Ryan was still in the emergency room and his chance of survival was slim.

Jeremy’s gaze landed on the woman who was asleep on the bed and his eyes softened.

‘Linnie, you must’ve been so frightened at the time.

‘A living person just collapsed in front of you like that.

‘It must’ve been triggering.’

Jeremy stayed by Madeline’s side for a while when suddenly, he saw Sean walking to the door of the room. He called out to him softly, “Let Eveline rest. Jeremy, come out for a bit.”

After Jeremy put the blanket on Madeline, he walked out of the room quietly.

Sean asked straightforwardly, “Is Eveline really okay? Has Ryan been caught?”

Recalling the scene not long ago, Jeremy frankly told him, “Ryan wanted to take Eveline away forcibly. The police were worried about Eveline’s safety, so they shot Ryan. It’s currently unsure whether he’ll make it or not. He’s being rescued in the hospital now.”

Sean was surprised, but he was more concerned about Madeline’s situation. “Could it be that Eveline fainted because she saw Ryan getting shot in front of her?”

Jeremy nodded sadly. “I’m guessing so.”

“Ryan Jones!” Sean said resentfully, his eyes full of worry. “Eveline isn’t in the best state of mind now but she received such a scare as well! We don’t know if her condition will deteriorate after she wakes up.”

Jeremy was also very worried about this.

When he was trying to comfort Sean, Eloise hurried over. “Jeremy!”

Seeing Eloise’s panicked face, Jeremy was puzzled. “Why are you so anxious?”

“Is Ryan dead? Is it true?” Eloise said in a hurry, “Was it you who shot him in the heart? Is it true?”

Upon hearing this, Jeremy asked calmly, “Where did you hear this?”

“Just now, a friend of mine called and told me. I watched the video that’s going viral on the internet and the man who fell to the ground was really Ryan!”

Jeremy did not expect that the situation at that time would be photographed by tourists and passersby who then uploaded the content to the internet. He also did not expect that they would think that he was the one who shot Ryan.

Jeremy took a look at the video circulating on the internet and also read the comments left by the netizens.

Many people believed that Jeremy shot Ryan for Madeline.

Others even ridiculed the love triangle between them.

Jeremy furrowed his eyebrows tightly after he saw that. He could ignore them thinking that he was the one who shot Ryan, but he could not tolerate them adding a third party to the two-way relationship between him and Madeline.

They only had each other in this relationship.

“You should take care of Eveline. I need to take care of some things,” Jeremy said, walking to the door.

However, as soon as he walked to the living room, he saw the maids blocking two people while stopping them helplessly. “Sir, madam, please don’t do this. Mr. Whitman won’t—”

“Jeremy Whitman, get out of here now!”

Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1353

The man’s furious voice came from the hallway harshly.

Jeremy raised his eyes to see the people who had barged in and instantly understood their intentions.

He signaled the maids to go on with their business and then said in a light tone, “If you have time, you should go to the hospital and not come here to expose your low IQs.”

“What? Jeremy, you killed Rye and you still dare to pretend that it has nothing to do with you?! Jeremy, let me tell you, I’ll never let Rye die like this without doing anything about it!” Mrs. Jones cursed with tears in her eyes, looking extremely distressed.

Mr. Jones was also furious as he gritted his teeth. “Jeremy, even if our Rye really killed the woman named Lana Johnson, it should be the police convicting him! Who are you to shoot Rye just like that?

“Do the Whitmans have a habit of persecuting the Joneses? Not only did you people kill my dad, but now you even killed my son!”

Jeremy furrowed his eyebrows as indignation appeared in his eyes. He emphasized with a serious expression, “No matter in the past, present, or future, the Whitmans have never harmed anyone.”

He looked imposing with his eyes looking magnanimous.

“I will only say this once. The death of the old master has nothing to do with my grandfather. If Ryan really dies from this gunshot, then he only has himself to blame and it has nothing to do with others.”

“Y-You’re actually saying that our Rye is the one to blame?!” Mrs. Jones could not accept this. Out of frustration, she pushed the blame to someone else. “You and that Eveline Montgomery are clearly the ones who killed our Rye! Eveline is a fickle woman who played with our Rye’s feelings. You’re even more hateful. In order to vent for that woman, you shot Rye to death!

“Jeremy, don’t think that you can do whatever you want just because the Whitmans are the number one family in Glendale. I’ll definitely seek justice for Rye!”

“Do you even know what justice is?” Jeremy was enraged all of a sudden.

Mrs. Jones’ words seemed to have triggered something in him.

She could berate him all she wanted, but she just had to involve Madeline.

His deep eyes froze over immediately and coldness swirled in his eyes. “It was your son who approached my wife with an ulterior motive from the beginning. My wife treated him as a friend, but what did he do? He was just using her for revenge!

“Linnie was a healthy, imposing, and confident person. Now, she has been turned into a half-witted fool by your son. Who do you think you are to stand here and blame my wife?

“Let me also tell you this. Even if Ryan really dies, this matter will not be over. Linnie has suffered so many injuries and torment that I want the Joneses to pay the price!”
