Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife novel Chapter 1399

Chapter 1399

The scene pierced into Madeline’s heart.

She quickly got to her feet and ran toward Eloise who was lying unconscious on the floor. “Mom! Mom!”

Madeline did not know if Eloise had merely fainted or if it was worse, but there was no response from her no matter how Madeline called out to her.

Eloise was currently bound by coarse ropes tied so tightly that lines of bruises had formed on her arms. There was a layer of dirt and dust over her face while her hair was a complete mess. It was a pitiful sight.

“Mom! Wake up, Mom. Eveline’s here. You wanted to see me, didn’t you?”

Madeline quickly unraveled the rope and carried Eloise to her feet before placing her against the wall.

“Mom.”

She called out a few more times but Eloise did not respond.

Madeline shot up and fumed when she saw the man opening the briefcase and staring at the money with greedy sparkling eyes.

“What did you do to my mother? Why won’t she wake up?!” Madeline questioned furiously.

The man dangled the cigarette in his mouth as he replied disdainfully, “The crazy b*tch kept wailing about looking for her daughter or something. It was so annoying, so I shut her up and dosed her with sleeping pills. That’s it.”

Madeline suddenly clenched her fists.

Watching the man happily counting the money, she looked down to whisper at the rose badge on her collar. “You heard him, didn’t you, Jeremy? Mom has been dosed with sleeping pills and she’s still unconscious. I can’t bring her out alone now. Call the police first, then—”

“F*ck! Who are you talking to?”

A man’s irritated voice rang out from behind. Madeline did not have the time to turn around when the man reached out to pull the badge off Madeline’s clothes.

While it seemed like a normal rose-shaped brooch, the badge also doubled as a locator and a contacting device.
