Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife novel Chapter 1217

Chapter 1217

Jeremy stopped walking. Then, he looked at the smiling woman with his soft gaze.

He could guess what was going on. His brows started furrowing together as his expression became heavy as well.

“No.” He rejected her.

Madeline smiled mischievously. “I haven’t told you what it is.”

“I know what you want to say.” There was a smart glint in Jeremy’s eyes. “Linnie, I said no.”

He emphasized again, his expression looking even more solemn.

The smile on Madeline’s face started fading away. “Jeremy, let me do something for you. I’m your wife. I can’t bear to watch my husband being framed.”

Jeremy walked in front of Madeline. “It’s because you’re my wife that I can’t let you risk yourself like this.”

“I want to.”

“But I don’t.”

“…”

Madeline did not know what to say. Once again, she felt that the person in the world who was more stubborn than her was Jeremy.

She left the hotel with him with no choice. They wanted to go back to the manor to visit their children, but they knew someone would be watching for them in the manor and their new house.

Madeline and Jeremy booked a room in a cheap motel. The motel did not ask them for identification, so it was perfect.

After the two of them took turns showering in the tiny bathroom, they sat on the balcony to enjoy the breeze.

Under the silent night sky, the stars were twinkling. Everything looked so peaceful and serene.

Madeline leaned her head against Jeremy’s shoulder and snuggled against his warm embrace.

“Jeremy, do you know? I was so happy when I married you back then. I was the happiest when I got to be your wife.” She reminisced about her bitter past that was laced with the sweetness from when they were young and inexperienced.

Madeline did not know whether they were finding joy amidst pain, but at this moment, she just wanted to drown in his arms forever…

In the middle of the night.

Madeline snuck away from Jeremy’s arms and found a solid perfume from her bag before putting it on.

Looking at the man deep in slumber, she lifted her hand and touched delicate face.

After a few seconds, Madeline lowered her head to press her lips against Jeremy’s. She only let go after a very long time.

She held back her tears as she looked at the man’s fair face. “Jeremy, you’re my life.”

Madeline changed her clothes after she said that. The moment she closed the door to leave the room, she looked reluctantly at Jeremy’s face before leaving.

After she left the motel, Madeline called Ryan.

Ryan had just gotten off the plane when he received Madeline’s call out of the blue. He curled the corners of his lips.
