Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1421
Jeremy had not expected Linnie to walk over as well and he secretly glanced at the situation through the peephole from the corner of his eye before replying plainly, “I’m not. I was just about to open the door.”

He smiled softly before opening the door.

When the door was opened, Madeline was met with an alluring young lady standing right outside their room.

The lights may have been dim last night, but Madeline would remember such ethereal features.

Shirley watched Madeline give herself a good look and was reminded of how Madeline found out about her late-night talk with Jeremy. She smiled unconcernedly and was about to speak when Madeline suddenly walked up to her with a friendly smile.

“Hello. I’m Eveline, Jeremy’s wife. Jeremy already told me about how you helped him when he wasn’t doing well during that half a year. Thank you for letting my husband come back to me.”

“…” A confused look flashed through Shirley’s eyes.

She suspected if Madeline was mocking her, but the other’s smile was sincere.

“What’s your name?”

“Shirley,” the woman spoke as she gave a generous smile. “You’re too kind, Mrs. Whitman. I’m just a doctor. It’s my duty to help the injured. I’m glad as well to see that my patient’s situation is taking a turn for the better.”

She looked at Jeremy who remained silent as she spoke. “I’m glad I got to meet you here, Jeremy. I just came to say goodbye before I got ready to leave. Perhaps our paths will cross again in Glendale.”

A cold glint flashed through Jeremy’s eyes at her suggestion.

“Are you from Glendale as well, Miss Shirley?” Madeline was surprised.

Shirley nodded. “I am. My parents passed long ago, but I still have family there.”

She then chuckled bitterly and disappointedly. “I don’t have many friends outside of work, Mrs. Whitman. I’m wondering if you’d like to be my friend?”

Jeremy wanted to decline her offer, but he heard Madeline agree.

“Of course. I’d love to be your friend. You’ve helped Jeremy so much.”

“That’s great, then.” The woman’s expression was filled with glee. “If you’ll excuse me, Mrs. Whitman, Jeremy, I won’t bother you two anymore then. I wish you a nice vacation here.”

“Thank you. Goodbye.” Madeline bade and waved the woman farewell.

“Bye,” Jeremy spoke sharply and turned to take Madeline’s hand to close the door without even waiting for the woman to turn around.

Hearing the door close, the woman paused her footsteps and turned to glance back.

She could not help but doubt Madeline’s reaction. ‘Didn’t she see everything last night? So why is she acting like she doesn’t know anything?’

Despite being baffled, she did not think deeper into it. For the rejection she had caught in Jeremy’s eyes was enough of a reward.

In the suite.

Madeline began to pack their luggage after breakfast for today was their last day here.

She turned around to see the man dazed. Madeline was both curious and concerned. “What are you thinking about, Jeremy? Are you feeling unwell?”

Jeremy quickly snapped out of his thoughts and smiled as he walked toward Madeline. “I’m alright. I was just thinking about how I can conclude the rest of our trip more happily and perfectly.”

“As long as it’s with you, I’m happy with wherever and whatever.” Madeline gave the man a crescent-eyed smile as she took his hand. “Let’s go. To where we planned today.”

“I’m so glad I have you, Linnie.” Jeremy’s eyes were gentle, and he could not help but hug Madeline and kiss her. Holding hands, they left the room and took the elevator down.

Passing through the lobby, the receptionist called Madeline and Jeremy back.

“Are you Mr. and Mrs. Whitman from room 1818?”

Madeline and Jeremy stopped walking and looked over as a server approached Madeline with a prettily wrapped box.

“A woman told us to hand this gift to you, Mrs. Whitman.”

Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1422
“For me?” Madeline took the gift confusedly and realized that there was a note on it.

On the note wrote: [I was in a rush and didn’t have time to find you a better meeting gift. I hope you’ll like this.] It was signed by Shirley.

Was this a meeting gift from Shirley?

Madeline was surprised. “Do you have Shirley’s contact information, Jeremy? I’d like to thank her.”

“No,” Jeremy replied curtly, “Let’s go, Linnie. We can leave this at the front desk.”

“Wouldn’t it be impolite to just do that when someone has given me a gift?” Madeline gave it some thought and finally decided to bring it back to the room.

Jeremy did not say much and returned to the room with Madeline.

On the way back, Madeline opened the box to find an aromatherapy kit inside.

The bottle’s shape was unusual as it was in the shape of a snake.

Madeline herself was sensitive to scents and coupled with her profession as a perfumer, she gave it an intrigued sniff.

However, except for a few usual aromatizers, she noticed a few scents that she had never smelled before.

“Let’s put it down and go, Linnie, lest we mess up our itinerary for the day.” Jeremy sounded like he was reminding Madeline of the time when in truth, he hated the gift.

Shirley’s words last night still echoed in his ears, but he could not tell Madeline that.

Madeline did not delay anymore and placed the aromatherapy kit on the cupboard by the entrance before she left with Jeremy again.

Today’s itinerary was simple and would be over in the afternoon, so Madeline decided that she would buy souvenirs today.

She video called Jackson so that the boy could choose what he wanted for himself.

Jeremy followed next to Madeline. Seeing Lillian quietly smiling through the camera, guilt weighed heavier in his heart.

‘It’s all Daddy’s fault, Lillian.

‘Daddy was too stupid then.’

Jeremy apologized internally, planning to spend time with the child when he returned so that she could break through her psychological obstacles and revert to the bright child she used to be.

“Lily wants this, Jeremy. Quick, go get it.”

Jeremy snapped back to reality when he heard Madeline calling him and took the small clay dinosaur on the highest shelf.

He smiled warmly at the camera. “Does Lily want this little dinosaur?”

Lillian nodded, her smile obedient and adorable.

“Be good and wait a little longer, okay? Mommy and Daddy will be back with your little dinosaur in two days.”

Lillian’s smile brightened further, shining through the gloomy clouds that had cast a shadow over Jeremy’s heart.

It was almost dusk when they returned to the hotel.

Madeline decided to take a shower before she went for dinner with Jeremy and walked into the bathroom.

Seeing that Madeline had gone to take a shower, he decided to keep the local specialties and souvenirs that they bought today away. As he packed the things, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Madeline had just taken her clothes off and readied herself for a bath when she suddenly heard a heavy bang. She looked into the room confusedly. “What happened, Jeremy? Did something fall?”

She asked, but there was no reply. “Jeremy?”

Finding it weird, Madeline wrapped the bathrobe around herself and quickly ran out.

“Jeremy!”
Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1423
Madeline ran out of the bathroom and saw Jeremy lying on the floor next to the bed.

“Jeremy!”

She frantically ran over and knelt by the man. The man’s sharp brows were knitted as if he was enduring severe agony. Madeline’s heart raced in panic.

“What happened, Jeremy? Is the poison acting up again?”

Madeline pulled Jeremy by his shoulders so that he could lean against her chest.

She wanted to carry him to the bed if she could but she was not strong enough.

“What happened? Adam himself said that the lapse between each attack would become longer and longer. Why is this happening now?”

Madeline was anxious as her tears began to fall without restraint, falling onto Jeremy’s face.

“Don’t worry, Linnie,” Jeremy spoke through the pain and reached out to caress Madeline’s cheek. “I’m already used to the pain. It won’t be for very long. I’ll be fine soon.”

He comforted her as his seductive lips were pulled into a small smile to placate her worry.

However, the more he was considerate of her emotions, the more Madeline’s heart ached.

“Adam. I’ll call Adam. He’ll know what to do!” Madeline scrambled for her phone and immediately dialed for the man.

However, the phone rang but no one answered the call.

Madeline waited nervously for Adam to pick up the phone and just as it was about to finish ringing, the call was connected.

The person who picked up was a woman.
