Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife novel Chapter 1340

Chapter 1340

‘No, it’s just been a short while. Linnie couldn’t have gone far.’

Jeremy thought to himself as if he was trying to comfort himself.

He was too afraid he would let her go missing again.

He used to be a man who was not afraid of death, yet currently, he was trembling with fear till his palms were soaking with cold sweat.

“Linnie!”

Facing the air, Jeremy shouted out Madeline’s name, but the only reply he got in return was the sound of the tree branches being blown by the night breeze.

‘Where are you, Linnie?

‘Silly, your Jeremy is right here.’

Jeremy felt as if his heart was being set on fire where it was roasted, burning him.

At that moment, he heard a yell and the sound of someone falling on the ground from afar.

“Linnie!”

Jeremy quickly headed over in the direction of the sound and saw it was Madeline who tripped over.

Not knowing the reason, she had run to the river behind the villa. Under the street lights, Jeremy could clearly see Madeline having fallen onto the ground.

Jeremy ran over to her. Madeline was trying her best to get up.

“Linnie.”

He rushed over to her side at lightning speed and carried the woman who was fumbling.

The moment their skin touched, Jeremy could feel Madeline trembling in fear.

Madeline wanted to leave after she spoke. Seeing Jeremy was insisting on not letting her go, she got exasperated and raised her hand. Then, she slapped Jeremy hard across the face.

“Didn’t you hear me telling you to let go of me?!” Her face was dark with rage.

Jeremy turned his head away, enduring the searing pain on his face. His orbs were glittering as he felt sorry for Madeline.

He emphasized while grasping Madeline’s shoulder, “Linnie, I’m Jeremy. Just look at me!”

“You’re not! Jeremy doesn’t look like this!” Feeling agitated, Madeline denied it.

“Yes, it’s me.” Jeremy looked into Madeline’s red and teary eyes, continuing to gently comfort her. “Linnie, I’m your Jeremy. Ryan didn’t do anything to me. I’ll also never let him harm you again. We’re already at home.”

Madeline seemed to be dumbfounded after hearing what Jeremy said.

She stared at him for some time before shaking her head. “No, you’re lying.”

“Linnie, I’m not lying to you,” said Jeremy as he took out an item from the pocket of his pajamas, presenting it to Madeline. “Look, Linnie. This is the best proof that I’m Jeremy.”
