Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife novel Chapter 1274

Chapter 1274

“Eveline?” Eloise snapped out of it and widened her big, pretty eyes. She examined Madeline with a critical gaze. Then, she shook her head. “This is not Eveline, no.”

Madeline felt something within her breaking into pieces when she heard Eloise denying her.

She looked over at Eloise, who was behind Sean, with a cautious gaze as tears started flowing.

Madeline composed herself and said to Sean, “Why is she this way? Why can’t she recognize me? Dad, what’s going on?”
