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

Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1661

When Madeline saw Shirley in front of her, she realized that it was not a coincidence she had run into her. It was all done intentionally.

A cold gust of wind blew over without a warning and Madeline immediately felt her body freezing over. Not only that, but her heart also started to ache vaguely.

When Shirley saw Madeline frowning, she curled the corner of her red lips slightly.

“I’m naming it AXT69. This is my latest mysterious anti-toxoid test reagent. I added some ingredients that can make people suffer even more on top of the original ingredients.”

While she said that, she walked closer in front of Madeline.

“Just like right now, you’re feeling excruciating pain in your heart. Apart from having breathing difficulties, you’ll also feel as though your entire body is being submerged in ice water. Every inch of your skin is enduring a coldness that feels as if you’re being sliced open by knives.”

After hearing what Shirley said, Madeline understood completely.

She did not need to confirm it anymore. Now, she was completely sure that she had been poisoned by that mysterious and terrifying thing unbeknownst to her.

However, Madeline had no idea how she got into contact with that thing in the first place.

Madeline clenched her fists and tried her best to compose herself. “Shirley, why are you doing this?”

“Heh.” Shirley did not answer Madeline. She laughed and asked, “Do you know why Jeremy’s condition flared up yesterday?”

Even though Madeline did not know the details, she could probably guess that this had something to do with Shirley.

Indeed, Shirley admitted confidently. “I deliberately induced it.”

Madeline was getting more and more confused. However, she was still calm and composed. “Why did you do that? Didn’t you save him before?”

“Saved him? No, I never wanted to save him. He’s just an experiment. Do you understand what an experiment is?” Shirley said and took a cigarette from her bag before lighting it up. After taking an enjoyable drag, her smile became even more radiant.

“You’re feeling mad and terrible, right?” Shirley laughed and looked at Madeline from head to toe. “You should also get a taste of what Jeremy feels when he’s being tortured by the poison. Since you’re such a loving couple, then you should experience his pain as well.”

Shirley said and took another drag of her cigarette. She was puffing out smoke with practiced ease.

“Don’t put too much hope on Adam. Even if he’s capable, he won’t be able to come up with an anti-toxoid test reagent that’s able to control the poison in such a short time. However, don’t worry, you won’t die. It’ll just make you suffer.”

After Shirley’s complacent words, Madeline felt as if her heart was being gnawed on by a million insects.

“Hiss!”

She could not help but let out a sound of pain. Her long and lean fingers grasped the clothes that were in front of her chest.

Shirley watched her with a grin on her face. “I have an anti-toxoid test reagent that can help you alleviate the pain for the time being. It has no side effects. As long as you’re willing to listen to me, then I’ll give it to you.”

Madeline was breathing heavily with difficulty as she looked at Shirley who was beaming while feeling pleased with herself. Then, she saw Shirley lifting her hand and shaking a bottle of anti-toxoid test reagent in front of her.

Madeline did not know if it was the poison or the devastatingly cold wind, but she even felt that her eyes were starting to hurt. Shirley’s smile in front of her gradually became blurry.

“Eveline, in some ways, I’m pretty impressed by you. I feel so reluctant when I see you in so much pain, but the word ‘easy’ doesn’t exist in the adult world, so…”

“Linnie!”

Jeremy’s appearance interrupted what Shirley was about to say next.

He ran over to Madeline as fast as lightning. When he noticed the odd look on Madeline’s face, he pulled her, who was shaking from the cold, into his embrace.

“Linnie, are you cold?” Jeremy’s eyes were filled with worry. He was not in the mood to bother himself with Shirley.

He quickly removed his coat and placed it over Madeline.

However, it did not seem that Madeline was becoming better at all.

“Linnie, what happened to you? Where does it hurt?”

“Jeremy, it’s useless no matter how many coats you give her. She’ll still feel cold, and she’ll still be in so much pain she won’t be able to breathe freely.”

Jeremy lifted his eyes suddenly. His frosty, cold eyes were stabbing straight at Shirley.

“What did you say? What do you mean?”

Shirley took a long drag of her cigarette. “Jeremy, you’re so smart and you still can’t tell what’s wrong with your wife?”

Jeremy’s pupils constricted, and he spotted the anti-toxoid test reagent in Shirley’s hand. “It’s indeed you. Shirley Brown, what are you trying to do?”

“Nothing. I just want to do an experiment.” Shirley chuckled lightly. “For your sake, just treat this as a gift for our acquaintance. Next time, you might not be so lucky.”

After Shirley said this, she threw the anti-toxoid test reagent in her hand to Jeremy.

Jeremy lifted his hand to catch it. Then, he took a look at the tiny bottle of anti-toxoid test reagent in his hand. He wanted to stop Shirley to ask her a few questions but she had already left.

Madeline was in a bad shape right now and he did not have the mood to bother with Shirley. As such, he carried Madeline and ran back to the hotel.

He booked another room and carried Madeline who was shaking all over into the room.

However, even though the heater was on, Madeline was still shaking furiously.

Her face was initially pale with a pinkish blush, but now, her face was as pale as a white sheet of paper.

Jeremy held Madeline’s hand and realized that her hands were very cold as well.

“Linnie.”

“Jeremy, I’m so cold. This place hurts as well,” Madeline used all of her energy to say with much difficulty.

“Linnie, don’t be scared. You won’t be in pain soon.” Jeremy comforted softly. His heart was so anxious.

He immediately took out the anti-toxoid test reagent that Shirley had tossed at him earlier. After drawing the liquid into the syringe that came with it, Jeremy did not hesitate to inject the liquid in the glass syringe into Madeline’s vein.

Madeline furrowed her eyebrows together and felt the bone-piercing coolness travel to every inch of her body.

She had never felt so cold before. She was so cold she was suffocating and her breathing was labored. She felt so cold that she could not even take in a breath.

Looking at Madeline who was in so much pain, Jeremy held her while feeling his heart break. He lay down next to her and tried his best to give her the warmth she wanted.

Time passed slowly, and Madeline’s body was not shaking as much as before. Then, she gradually fell asleep.

Jeremy felt more at ease when he saw that Madeline was not suffering as much anymore.

He kissed the space between Madeline’s eyebrows, his eyes filled with heartache and doting. However, at the same time, there was also an intense and threatening rage brewing within him.

He grabbed his coat and picked up his phone to make a call. He got straight to the point and asked, “Where are you?”

Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1663

Jeremy asked coldly. After getting a reply from the person on the other end of the phone, he walked straight to the door. “Wait for me. I’ll be there immediately!”

He spoke in a commanding tone but immediately changed his expression after ending the call.

Jeremy turned around and glanced gently at the sleeping Madeline before opening the door lightly to leave.

When he got out of the hotel, Jeremy realized that it was currently snowing.

Meanwhile, Shirley, dressed in a red coat, was standing and smoking conspicuously under a tree not far away from the entrance.

Jeremy hurriedly walked over. Shirley turned her head calmly when she heard the hurried footsteps behind her. “You sure are fast. Sure enough, Eveline holds an extraordinary position in your heart. This proves that I didn’t choose the wrong target.”

She smiled and walked toward Jeremy while smoking a cigarette, looking carefree.

The fluttering snow fell on the shoulders of her red coat. The clashing red and white formed an exceptionally strong contrast.

Looking at Jeremy’s dark eyes, Shirley said leisurely, “You don’t have to worry. Eveline won’t die. She’ll just suffer some pain at most.”

Jeremy did not want to deal with her at all. “Don’t tell me all this nonsense. Tell me, what is your purpose for doing this?”

Seeing Jeremy’s straightforwardness, Shirley did not beat around the bush anymore. She shook the ashes from her cigarette and put her hand to her side. The cigarette between her slender fingertips was glowing and dimming.

“Jeremy, I know that you’re a very important person in Glendale and you have the right to speak on many occasions. Almost all of those rich and famous in Glendale will respect you. It could be said that if you proclaim yourself as the number two young master in Glendale, no one would dare to call themselves the number one young master.”

“So?” Jeremy asked impatiently.

“So…” Shirley laughed. Then, she continued, “Glendale is a good place and it’s an international metropolis. Other than that, it’s a city with great strength and potential. Glendale is also my hometown, so I like it a lot.”

After hearing this, Jeremy frowned. He did not want to waste any more time with Shirley. “You still haven’t gotten to the point, Shirley. Don’t go around in circles. What do you want?”

“Why are you in such a hurry? Are you worried that your darling wife will panic if she wakes up and can’t find you? Don’t worry, the anti-toxoid test reagent contains ingredients to make someone sleep peacefully. Anyone who takes the jab won’t wake up in another four or five hours.”

She smiled, obviously quite confident in what she had developed.

However, what Jeremy could not stand the most right now was the look of confidence on Shirley’s face. She was so pleased with herself after developing this harmful thing, and he could not stand this.

Shirley was not ignorant of Jeremy’s personality. However, she also expected that Jeremy would not do anything to women no matter how angry he was. As such, she was not worried.

“Jeremy, I want the right to speak in Glendale,” Shirley finally stated her purpose, “I know that there will be a major change in ZF in Glendale. I want you to arrange a position for me.”

“What position?”

“A position with the right to speak regarding the internal matters of ZF in Glendale,” Shirley added without hesitation, “As long as you can get it done, I won’t make Eveline suffer anymore. Also, I can help you get rid of the poison in your body as soon as possible.”

“I was wondering what request you’d have. Sure, I can help you arrange that,” Jeremy answered straightforwardly.

A glint appeared in Shirley’s alluring eyes. She directly threw another bottle of anti-toxoid test reagent to Jeremy. “The poison in Eveline’s body will flare up again in half a month. Keep this properly.”
