Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1721
“Jeremy, why do you have this in your pocket?”

Madeline brought the earring in front of Jeremy. Of course, she was not suspicious nor was she questioning him. She just felt that this was a little strange.

When Jeremy saw the earring, his mind went straight to Shirley.

He figured that it had fallen into his pocket when he brought Shirley into the car.

Jeremy did not know how he should dodge the question. He figured Madeline would not believe any excuses as to why he had a piece of woman’s jewelry in his pocket.

Upon seeing Jeremy hesitating as though he did not know how to answer her, Madeline felt a little worried. “Jeremy, what’s the matter with you? Who does this earring belong to?”

Jeremy knew he could not hide this anymore, and he really did not want to lie to Madeline either.

“It probably belongs to Shirley.” Jeremy did not hide it anymore.

“Why is Shirley’s earring in your pocket? Did you go to find her?” Madeline’s expression became anxious as her heart started beating frantically. “Jeremy, d-did you do something to her?”

Jermy felt remorseful when he saw Madeline’s worried expression.

He held Madeline’s shoulders and when he was about to tell her what was going on, someone pushed the room door open all of a sudden.

Lillian was sleeping but when she heard the noise, she woke up abruptly.

Jeremy looked at the man who barged through the door in displeasure. “Why are you here? Don’t disturb my daughter’s rest. Get out.”

Madeline looked at Carter in dissatisfaction and quickly walked to Lillian to comfort her.

However, Cater did not leave. Instead, he strode over.

His expression was cold as he questioned in an icy tone.

“Jeremy, where did you hide Shirley?” Carter asked, going straight to the topic.

Madeline detected something fishy when she heard this. “Carter, why are you asking this?”

“Why don’t you ask your husband what he did?” Carter asked with eyes filled with hostility.

Jeremy went over and protectively pulled Madeline behind him. “Carter, don’t you think that you’re being pathetic by asking this? What did I do? Have you asked yourself what you’ve done? What kind of shameful things have you asked Shirley to do?”

After Jeremy asked that, Carter seemed to fall into momentary silence.

It seemed that he did not have anything to refute.

Jeremy walked over to him, and their two pairs of eyes that were beautiful in their own way met. Their hostile gazes crashed into each other savagely mid-air.

“Carter, I did to Shirley what you asked her to do to my wife. What she’s enduring now is nothing compared to what my wife and I had to endure.”

When Carter heard Jeremy’s answer, there was a look of anxiety in Carter’s eyes.

“What the hell did you do to her?”

“Why? Are you worried? Are you worried that something will happen to the chess piece you’re manipulating?”

“Jeremy.”

“I won’t tell you where she is, just like how she refuses to hand over the anti-toxoid test reagent to me.”

Jeremy’s tone was decisive. The aura emanating from his cold eyes completely overpowered Carter at this moment.

Carter saw the overwhelmingly strong aura in Jeremy’s eyes and felt his determination to save Madeline with the anti-toxoid test reagent.

“Jeremy, if you want the anti-toxoid test reagent, you should let Shirley go. Without her, you won’t be able to get the anti-toxoid test reagent!” Carter said in a warning tone while looking a little impatient.

However, this time, Jeremy remained very calm. He chuckled softly and carefreely, saying, “Shirley has already told me that the anti-toxoid test reagent hasn’t been made. So even if she’s standing here, it won’t be of use.”

“So you won’t let her go, huh?” Carter was slowly losing his patience.

“You can go now. Don’t disturb my daughter’s rest.” Jeremy chased Carter away coldly.

Carter pressed his lips together tightly. He looked at Lillian who was blinking her clear wide eyes and then looked at Madeline while saying, “Jeremy, don’t regret this.”

“The thing I regret the most is that I only waited till now to teach that vile woman a lesson.”

‘Vile woman.’

Those two words pierced Carter’s eardrums. He felt that they sounded abnormally ear-piercing.

Carter did not continue questioning Jeremy and turned around to leave with a cold expression on his face.

After Carter left, Madeline immediately comforted the little princess and put her back to sleep. After Lillian was asleep, she looked at Jeremy before the two of them walked out of the room.

“Jeremy, is that true? Did you kidnap Shirley?” Madeline asked directly.

To be honest, she wanted to hear him denying this but she only saw him nodding.

“That’s right, I kidnapped her and locked her up.”

“Jeremy…” Madeline felt a twinge in her heart and she wanted to ask Jeremy to let Shirley go. After all, this was not something just and honorable.

However, before she could continue, Jeremy interrupted her.

“Linnie, I can’t take this anymore.” Jeremy held Madeline’s hand tightly in his palms.

She could feel Jeremy’s anxiety and uneasiness from the way he was holding her so tightly.

“Jeremy, are you worried about me? Are you worried that the poison will torment me a lot when it reaches the final stage so that’s why you kidnapped Shirley to force her to give you the anti-toxoid test reagent?”

After she said that, Jeremy lowered his eyelids silently.

Madeline felt her heart aching, but at the same time, she felt loved and pampered.

“Jeremy, let her go. I don’t want you to do something so unreasonable because of me.”

“Linnie, I’m clear-headed and I know what I’m doing.” Jeremy’s gaze looked firm. “I’m just doing to her what she did to you. I can’t let them always have the upper hand over us. Linnie, we can’t be so passive anymore.”

Madeline saw Jeremy’s unwavering decisiveness. After pondering, she figured that she could not change his mind anymore.

Plus, it was true that Shirley had done all kinds of evil.

“Jeremy, where did you imprison Shirley? I want to go see her,” Madeline suggested, but Jeremy rejected without hesitation.

“I won’t let you see her. This is my own doing so I won’t drag you into this.”

“I’m already in this now, aren’t I?” Madeline emphasized and looked straight into Jeremy’s eyes. “Jeremy, I’m your wife. I won’t run away if you’re in trouble, do you understand?”

When Jeremy heard this, he suddenly felt remorseful. He regretted kidnapping Shirley now.

However, now that things had already arrived at this point, he could only continue with it.

The next morning, Jeremy called Karen to come to take care of Lillian in the hospital. After that, he took Madeline to the place where he was imprisoning Shirley.

On the way, Jeremy sensed that someone was following them. As such, he deliberately took a very roundabout way. After making sure that he had lost the person behind him, he eventually drove to the destination.

Madeline was surprised when the car stopped and she saw the building in front of her.

‘It’s this place.’
Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1723
Madeline got out of the car. She had never thought that she would come back to this villa again.

After all, this place was filled with a lot of unhappy memories.

Jeremy carefully observed Madeline’s expression. He knew this place had given her too much pain. To be honest, he was genuinely reluctant to bring her back here.

“She’s in the basement.” Jeremy broke the silence and went over to open the iron gates.

Madeline followed after him. When she stepped into the premises, she felt a strong uneasiness rising in her chest.

Perhaps it was because the weather was cold today, so whenever the wind blew, the coldness would penetrate her skin like thorns.

Madeline could not endure this discomfort so she followed Jeremy to the basement.

When the door of the basement was opened and the light streamed inside, Madeline could see a person lying on the cold and damp floor.

Madeline quickly walked to Shirley and grabbed her arm.

She could feel that Shirley’s entire body was hot, even her breath. It seemed that she was having a fever.

At this moment, she looked battered and exhausted. She had lost her bright and beautiful appearance as well as her arrogant attitude whenever she was in front of people.

“Shirley,” Madeline called out to her.

Jeremy watched them coldly at one side. “Linnie, she won’t die. You don’t have to worry about people like her.”

Madeline understood how much Jeremy despised Shirley. However, if something happened to Shirley and she died here, Jeremy’s future would be destroyed.

“Jeremy, get her out of here. Ask Carter to come to get her.”

“No way.” Jeremy rejected decisively. “Even if she dies, it’ll be an appropriate punishment for her crimes. Linnie, why are you worried about people like her?”

“The person I’m worried about is you, Jeremy Whitman,” Madeline emphasized with a stern tone.

Suddenly, Jeremy was dazed. He felt as if his judgment had been affected by his anger because what Madeline said hit him hard now.
