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

Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1461

Madeline raised her slightly trembling fingers and stroked her cheek.

The smoothness from the past no longer existed. What was left were just bumpy and ugly scars.

Except for the small wound on her forehead and her eyes that were intact, the other parts, especially the sides of her cheeks, were damaged to the extent that it was unbearable to look at.

Madeline squeezed the handle of the mirror and forced herself to calm down. However, no woman in the world could accept their initially flawless face getting ruined like this—neither could Madeline.

“It’s still in a preliminary state. Your face will heal after some treatments.” The doctor beside Madeline gave her some hope.

“Thank you, I’ll cooperate with the treatment.” Madeline put on a smile and thanked him.

Back then when she laughed, there were sweet dimples. Now, there was not an inch of intact skin on her face, let alone dimples.

Madeline put down the mirror and clenched the ring on her ring finger before casting her eyes down in despair.

‘Jeremy, you probably won’t recognize me anymore now that I’m like this, right?

‘Even if I stand in front of you, you’ll only pass by blindly.

‘Just like that dream, you and I are now just strangers to each other.’

“Have you seen what you look like now?” The cold voice sounded next to her.

Madeline lifted her head. Her clear and lively eyes met the man’s narrow and black eyes calmly.

“I have,” she replied calmly. Her emotions were flat as well. “I still need to thank you, or else I wouldn’t even be alive now.”

The man furrowed his thick eyebrows and peered at Madeline with interest. “Your reaction is a little special now that you’ve seen yourself.”

Madeline understood what the man meant. She looked at him as her eyes lit up. “You said being sad is the most useless thing in the world. I can’t change what has happened, so what can I do aside from accepting it? Plus, I’ll still have hope as long as I’m alive, right?”

After she said that, there was a fleeting look of admiration in his eyes.

She was indeed very different from how he imagined. He thought this woman would be wailing loudly and inconsolable after she saw how badly she was disfigured.

However, Madeline’s reaction shocked him.

Of course, no one could understand how Madeline was feeling at the moment. How could she be completely calm? She just did not want to face this pessimistically.

She could only cooperate with the treatment and wait for the day when she fully recovered.

At least, she could move freely now. Plus, she also had the strength to eat and drink.

To get more information on why the man was investigating Jeremy, she deliberately got up early the next day.

She knew that this man would have his breakfast in the dining room at eight o’clock sharp every morning, and during this period, his entourage would report some things back to him.

Madeline calculated the time and only went downstairs when she saw the man walking into the dining room.

The man was very observant. When he saw Madeline, he invited her courteously. “Are you interested in having breakfast with me?”

Madeline walked to the side of the dining table. “Aren’t you worried that my face will ruin your appetite, Mr. Carter?”

The man stared emotionlessly at Madeline’s face for a few seconds. “Sit down.”

Madeline knew in her heart that the man did not care about how she looked, although her face was indeed too horrifying.

The maid served Madeline some breakfast as well. Madeline ate some of it, and after a while, she saw the man’s entourage coming up to him to report some information to him.

“Mr. Carter, we can go to Glendale tonight. I heard that Jeremy is going to celebrate a special day with his wife, so he has been busy decorating these few days. He rarely goes to the office nowadays.”

After hearing what the entourage said, Madeline’s hands that were holding the fork and knife froze.

Special day?

Madeline quickly racked her brain, but she did not remember any anniversaries coming up.

‘However, Jeremy has been preparing a surprise for this woman these days?

‘What surprise will it be?’

Madeline’s brain was filled with questions. She wanted to know, but at the same time, she was even more reluctant to see Jeremy preparing a surprise for an imposter who was impersonating her.

She clenched the fork and knife tightly in her hands, trying hard to suppress her emotions. After she took a deep breath, she said, “Can I go to Glendale with you?”

The man lifted his head to look at her after he heard that.

Madeline looked confidently into those deep and cold obsidian eyes. “My home is in Glendale. I miss my home.”

“You want to go home looking like this?”

“No, I just want to go back to take a look.” Madeline knew her current condition. She did not want to stand in front of Jeremy while looking like this.

Perhaps he would not mind that she was disfigured.

However, Madeline did not dare to find out. She was scared that Jeremy might not even recognize her if she were to stand in front of him like this.

When she thought about that scene, she felt as if her heart had been stabbed by needles.

She did not have the courage to try.

“You’re from Glendale, so you should know about a lot of things in Glendale, right? If that’s the case, you should’ve heard about Jeremy Whitman in Glendale?”

Madeline could not deny it. She nodded lightly. “I’ve heard about him. He’s the young master from the top wealthiest family in Glendale. However, I’m not sure about the rest.”

She answered calmly. Then, she asked while taking advantage of the situation for her benefit, “Are you asking about Jeremy? Do you want to do business with him? What do you do? Where is this place?”

After Madeline asked these questions, she realized she might have gotten a little too anxious.

When she saw the man examining her with his deep eyes, she shifted her gaze calmly.

“I’m just curious.”

“Everyone is inquisitive. It’s not strange,” the man said flatly, “Since you want to go home so badly, I’ll send you on the way.”

“…”

Send her on the way.

This sounded a little strange, but Madeline did not think that this man would do anything to her.

He saved her and even got a doctor to treat her. It could be seen that he was a pretty kind-hearted person.

However, who was he? Madeline had no idea. She did not even know what this man’s full name was.

After breakfast, the man ordered the maids to make the preparations before heading to Glendale.

The maid considerately gave Madeline a mask and a scarf so that she could cover the sinister-looking and ugly wounds on her face.

After Madeline thanked her, she found the man to ask for Ryan’s urn.

He was gone, so it did not matter what happened between them in the past anymore as they were all gone with the wind. The last thing she could do for him was to take him back to his home.

To be frank, Ryan was not that horrible. At least the smile and warmth he gave to her at the beginning were all from the heart.

They went back on a yacht and Madeline could not help but recall what happened that day. Finally, they reached Glendale amidst her anxiety.

When Madeline stepped foot inside Glendale, she started feeling more at ease.

“Are you planning to go home now?” the man walked up to Madeline and asked.

Madeline wanted to nod, but she hesitated.

“I want to send my friend home first.” Madeline lifted Ryan’s urn, then turned around while seemingly in a predicament. “Can you lend me 100 dollars?”

The man paused before asking his entourage to give Madeline a generous wad of cash.

Madeline took one of the 100 dollar bills. “Thanks,” she said before turning around to hail a cab from the side of the road.

In order to prevent people from seeing her horrifying face, she put on a mask and wrapped a scarf around herself so that her face was completely covered.

She hailed a cab and quietly sat in the backseat. As she held Ryan’s urn in her arms, her heart started to feel heavy.

Then, the car stopped at the red light and Madeline lifted her head to look out the window. However, after looking, there was debilitating pain in her heart that was already hurting.

Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1463

She was always imagining the scene of her reunion with Jeremy. However, she did not expect to see the man she loved and the woman impersonating her in such a situation. They had just picked the children up from school and were wandering in the busy streets happily.

Madeline felt as if her heart had been slashed open and the cold autumn wind was penetrating through it.

When she saw Jeremy and that woman holding Jackson and Lillian’s hands to cross the road, Madeline suddenly lifted her hand and rolled down the window.

“Jeremy.”

She could not help but call out his name. However, the voice that came out of her lips sounded as hoarse as the voice of a heavy smoker. At that moment, she was completely stunned.

Even so, it was as if Jeremy had sensed something or heard something. He looked in Madeline’s direction, but at that instant, Madeline shifted her gaze in a panic and quickly rolled up the window.

They were separated by the window but Madeline could feel her face heating up as if a fire was burning her face.

She could vaguely feel the gaze that she was familiar with. However, she did not dare to turn around.

The light turned green at this moment and Madeline saw Jeremy’s tall figure passing by from the corner of her eyes.

At that moment, she felt as if her body had been stabbed by something sharp. Her eyes had turned red, but she was forcing herself not to cry.

That man was right. Getting sad was the most useless thing in the world. She would only see hope and light if she faced it bravely.

Madeline arrived at the front door of Jones Manor in the cab.

After she got out of the car, she saw that the doors were tightly shut.

The wind from the late autumn kept attacking her. The wind felt as if it was seeping into her skin and the coldness was inching into her heart.

She held the urn and walked to the door before pressing the doorbell.

After a while, a maid came to open the door.
