Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife novel Chapter 1420

Chapter 1420

She swirled the liquid in her glass and scoffed indignantly.

“There’s no way I’ll lose to you, Adam. Did you think you’d really be able to save Jeremy? Hmph. There’s no way I’ll let you stick your hand in my experiment subject!”

Jeremy ran from the terrace all the way back to the hotel’s entrance but he suddenly lost sight of Madeline.

He was worried that Madeline would get the wrong idea after what she heard from their conversation. Not to mention that it was midnight and Madeline was in a strange setting. Jeremy was scared that Madeline would get lost.

He quickly returned to the suite. Seeing the empty bed, Jeremy felt his heart sink deeper.

He took out his phone to search for Madeline’s location. Just as he was about to walk to the entrance, he heard the sound of water running coming from the bathroom.

Jeremy’s footsteps came to a sudden halt as he looked up to see Madeline squinting blearily while walking out of the bathroom.

Dressed in a loose sleeping gown, it did not look like she had left the room at all.

“Where did you go, Jeremy? I thought you went to the bathroom,” Madeline mumbled as she walked toward the man drowsily. She then leaned into his chest adorably.

Jeremy quickly raised his hands to hug Madeline back as his heart thumped erratically.

“I was a little hungry so I went to eat something at the restaurant.” Jeremy could not help but lie.

Madeline did not suspect him and buried her head into Jeremy’s broad chest intimately as she spoke coquettishly, “Are you done eating, then? Come back to bed with me. I’m sleepy.”

“Alright. I’ll come with you.” Jeremy then bridal-carried Madeline to the bed. Taking off his jacket, he got in bed as well.

Just as he lay down, Madeline burrowed into his arms. “Goodnight, sweetheart.”

Jeremy’s heart felt sweet but it was even more so remorseful. He placed a peck on the space between her brows and whispered, “Goodnight, Linnie.”

Madeline smiled sweetly and contently before she fell comfortably asleep in Jeremy’s warm embrace.
