Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife novel Chapter 1421

Chapter 1421

Jeremy had not expected Linnie to walk over as well and he secretly glanced at the situation through the peephole from the corner of his eye before replying plainly, “I’m not. I was just about to open the door.”

He smiled softly before opening the door.

When the door was opened, Madeline was met with an alluring young lady standing right outside their room.

The lights may have been dim last night, but Madeline would remember such ethereal features.

Shirley watched Madeline give herself a good look and was reminded of how Madeline found out about her late-night talk with Jeremy. She smiled unconcernedly and was about to speak when Madeline suddenly walked up to her with a friendly smile.

“Hello. I’m Eveline, Jeremy’s wife. Jeremy already told me about how you helped him when he wasn’t doing well during that half a year. Thank you for letting my husband come back to me.”

“…” A confused look flashed through Shirley’s eyes.

She suspected if Madeline was mocking her, but the other’s smile was sincere.

“What’s your name?”

“Shirley,” the woman spoke as she gave a generous smile. “You’re too kind, Mrs. Whitman. I’m just a doctor. It’s my duty to help the injured. I’m glad as well to see that my patient’s situation is taking a turn for the better.”

She looked at Jeremy who remained silent as she spoke. “I’m glad I got to meet you here, Jeremy. I just came to say goodbye before I got ready to leave. Perhaps our paths will cross again in Glendale.”

A cold glint flashed through Jeremy’s eyes at her suggestion.

“Are you from Glendale as well, Miss Shirley?” Madeline was surprised.

Shirley nodded. “I am. My parents passed long ago, but I still have family there.”

She then chuckled bitterly and disappointedly. “I don’t have many friends outside of work, Mrs. Whitman. I’m wondering if you’d like to be my friend?”

Jeremy wanted to decline her offer, but he heard Madeline agree.
