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

Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1701

Madeline had not been able to contact Fabian the entire time. She also did not know where Fabian had taken Lillian. Despite her uneasiness throughout this ordeal, she still believed that Fabian would certainly not hurt Lillian.

“Linnie, I know where Fabian had taken Lily.” Jeremy sent Lillian’s location to Madeline’s phone.

This surprised Madeline. “Did you put a GPS tracker on Lillian?”

“That’s the work of our precious son,” Jeremy looked proud as he said that. “Even though Jack is only, he could sometimes think more comprehensively than we could.”

Madeline strongly agreed with this fact.

There were several instances where Jeremy had managed to save Madeline from trouble in the nick of time thanks to her son.

However, upon seeing Lilian’s location, Madeline’s heart started racing again.

“Why’s Lily in the hospital? Why did Fabian take Lily to the hospital when she’s fine?”

“Linnie, let’s not worry too much yet. We’re heading over now, and we’ll know what happened as soon as we get there,” Jeremy comforted Madeline with a soft voice.

Madeline, however, was still feeling anxious, and this feeling continued to eat at her on the way to the hospital.

When they arrived at the hospital, Madeline was the first to get out of the car and went into the hospital. She ran hurriedly toward the outpatient service following the location Jeremy had sent her.

In her hurry, Madeline ran into a man as they both rounded the same corner.

“I’m sorry, sir. I’m in a hurry…”

While Madeline was apologizing, she lifted her gaze to see a familiar face.

Compared to how he had previously looked, the handsome face in front of her had more hints of maturity.

“Fabian, I guess this counts as bumping into you,” Madeline said knowingly. “Why did you cut off all contact with us? Additionally, why did you take Lily away after getting off the plane? Where’s Lily? Why did you bring her to the hospital?”

Fabian listened to all of Madeline’s questions with a calm expression. His face, which used to have a self-indulgent look to it, let out a small smile.

“That’s a lot of questions. Which one would you like me to answer first?” Fabian’s tone was completely different from that of the past. His friendly, carefree tone was now laced with detachment and coldness.

Madeline got straight to the heart of the matter as well. As a mother, Madeline was most concerned about her precious daughter right now.

“First, tell me where’s Lily.” Fabian turned his head and looked behind him. “Lily’s in the doctor’s office.”

Madeline wanted to run past Fabian to the doctor’s office as soon as she heard the answer.

“However, it’s best if you’re mentally prepared.”

Madeline heard his sudden words as she walked past Fabian.

She abruptly stopped in her tracks; her heart started to feel uneasy again.

Madeline turned, looking at the side of Fabian’s cold face. “What do you mean, Fabian? What do you mean by that?”

After Madeline had said that, Jeremy too arrived hurriedly.

Jeremy briefly met Fabian’s eyes before shifting his gaze away, indifferent. “Linnie, what’s wrong?”

Madeline gently shook her head, her eyes glued to Fabian’s face. “Fabian, explain to me, clearly, what you just said. What do you mean by ‘mentally prepared’?”

Jeremy could immediately tell that something was off with these words. “Fabian, why did you say that? Where’s my daughter?”

Fabian, looking at the frantic faces of Madeline and Jeremy, slowly lifted his hand and handed them a medical test report.

“The doctor suspects that Lily has leukemia.”

‘What?’

Fabian’s answer, like a thunder in clear weather, shocked Madeline and Jeremy. The weight of the news felt like a sudden, heavy downpour, drenching them head to toe.

Madeline’s vision went blank, as though all the oxygen in her body had been sucked out.

“Linnie!” Jeremy supported Madeline, who seemed to be on the verge of fainting.

Madeline, suddenly roused from her state, shot a glance at Fabian, then turned around and ran toward the doctor’s office nearby.

Jeremy too glanced at Fabian, then quickly chased after Madeline. “Linnie, slow down.”

He was worried about her, but at the same time, he was also worried about Lillian.

‘No, there must be a mistake.

‘Lily has been fine all this while. How would she have leukemia?’

Jeremy kept denying this in his heart, as did Madeline.

When they reached the doctor’s office, Madeline pushed the door open. As the doctor was about to speak upon seeing Madeline and Jeremy, they heard Lillian calling out to Madeline lovably, “Mom.”

Madeline swiftly ran to Lillian and squatted in front of her. “Lily, Lily, tell me. Where does it hurt? Let me take a good look at you.”

Madeline asked incoherently. Tears fell down her cheeks as she spoke.

Fabian’s words just now were like a sharp sword cruelly piercing through her heart, which now felt like it was bleeding profusely.

“Linnie, let’s calm down so that we don’t frighten Lily. Let’s ask the doctor first.” Jeremy walked over and gently patted Madeline’s shoulder, then handed Madeline a handkerchief to wipe the tears that were overflowing from her eyes.

Madeline recomposed herself, then turned toward the doctor.

“Doctor, we…”

“You’re Lillian’s parents?” the doctor asked instead.

Madeline and Jeremy nodded in tandem. “We’re her parents.”

“You’re just in time.” The doctor said and looked at Lillian in pity. “Your friend had sent your daughter over for a checkup. When I was examining the little one’s condition, I noticed that she was bleeding excessively. There could be something wrong with her blood clotting capability, that is why I suspect that she has leukemia.”

Upon hearing the doctor’s answer, Madeline’s mind went blank again.

“Linnie, Linnie, stay strong.” Jeremy held Madeline’s shoulder to comfort her.

In truth, his heart was also in great pain right now, as though it was being sliced to bits. However, as a man, as a husband, he could not let himself display his sadness and worry.

Although there was a raging storm in his heart, he had to hold out, holding up the umbrella amidst the tempest. For her, and for their children.

Madeline fought back her tears. She turned to look at Lillian who blinked her huge eyes, then felt waves of excruciating pain.

The child was barely five. Pure and bright, she was still young and ignorant, yet she had to endure this kind of pain.

Madeline suddenly felt exhausted. All she wanted was to have a peaceful life with her family, but such times always seemed out of her reach.

“You don’t have to worry for the time being. This is still merely my conjecture. We’ll have a concrete answer once we’ve completed a more comprehensive examination on the child.”

However, following the doctor’s hopeful words, Fabian’s cold voice drifted from the entrance of the doctor’s office.

“There’s no need to wait for the result.”

Madeline and Jeremy turned toward the voice and saw Fabian slowly walking into the office.

He gazed at the little one, who was standing at a side, blinking her clear, large eyes at him. He could not help but frown slightly.

“We basically could confirm that Lily has this disease,” Fabian answered with certainty. “I’ve already reminded you to be mentally prepared.”

“Fabian, how would you know that my daughter has this disease? Why did you find my daughter immediately after getting off the plane?” Jeremy questioned, feeling doubtful.

“Can’t I come back to see an old friend?” Fabian seemed to be downplaying his answer. He was even teasing the five-year-old Lillian as an old friend.

Madeline resisted waves of pain crashing against her as she turned back toward Lillian.

She had been so distressed earlier that she only just noticed the thick layer of gauze covering Lillian’s knee.

“Lily, what happened here?”

Lillian lowered her head and, for a few seconds, stared intensely at her knee. Although the little girl tried to speak, she still could not make a sound.

Suddenly, Madeline, dazed, felt the pain in her heart intensified.

How could she forget that her precious daughter could not say anything aside from “daddy” and “mommy”?

“I brought her to an amusement park, and she fell when I wasn’t paying attention,” Fabian explained from behind Madeline.

“You brought my daughter to an amusement park?” Jeremy’s confusion deepened further. He lowered his gaze and looked at his wife and daughter, then he looked askance at Fabian. “Come out for a moment. I have something to ask you.”

Fabian frowned. He seemed unwilling to comply, but in the end, he turned to follow Jeremy out of the doctor’s office.

“What do you want to talk to me about, Mr. Whitman? My time is precious now.”

These words made Jeremy realize that he could no longer recognize this person.

“Fabian, could you tell me why you’ve been cutting off contact with us? When you had left, why did you go out of your way to meet with my daughter?”

After listening to Jeremy’s questions, Fabian momentarily seemed reticent. A while later, he removed a pack of exquisitely packaged cigarettes from his pocket, then he took out a cigarette, seemingly about to smoke.

“This is a hospital,” Jeremy reminded him.
