Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife novel Chapter 1428

Chapter 1428

Adam was stunned for a moment. “What? What are you saying? Who are you? Where’s Eveline?”

“Don’t you recognize me anymore? You’re just like your parents, Adam. Heartless and cruel,” Shirley mocked coldly.

Adam fell silent for a few seconds before he finally reacted.

“It’s you.” His mind was supplied with a certain identity.

He was dumbfounded by the identity and slightly surprised.

“Yeah, it’s me,” Shirley replied Adam without hesitation, “We’ll be meeting very soon, Adam. Although I don’t think you’ll be looking forward to it.”

Adam fell silent again and ignored Shirley’s words. He changed the subject, saying, “Why did you pick up the phone? Where’s Eveline? How is Jeremy doing?”

Shirley scoffed. “Didn’t I tell you? He’s dying soon and his wife is next to him, heartbroken.”

“Bullsh*t! He can’t possibly be in any life-threatening danger!” It was clear from Adam’s tone that he was panicking. “I won’t let you fool around like this!”

Adam quickly hung up the phone with that.

Shirley’s smile deepened as she stared at the slowly dimming screen.

“Who are you to stop me from fooling around, Adam? On behalf of the two of them who died so many years ago? Hmph.”

She scoffed disdainfully and threw the phone back on the bed before picking up her own suitcase. Leaving the room as if she owned the place, she grabbed the bottle of aromatherapy kit by the cupboard as she passed by the entrance as well.

In the bathroom.

Madeline stayed with Jeremy for a long time until the sky outside had slowly turned dark. She felt his body temperature slowly returning to usual.

“It doesn’t hurt anymore, Linnie.” Jeremy grabbed Madeline’s hand. He could tell how tired and unsettled she felt.

“Let’s go home, Jeremy.” Madeline’s watery eyes were filled with concern. “I’m really scared that something will happen to you. We have another vacation again as long as you’re alright.”

Adam sent Madeline an address and had them go over to his house.

Madeline waited for Jeremy to wake and made the man breakfast before they left for Adam’s home.

The address led them to a small villa in the countryside. The house was not large, but its surroundings were quiet and elegant.

Madeline was met with a refreshing scent of flowers upon arriving at the villa’s entrance.

She thought about Amy. From her memory, the woman seemed to love plants—especially yellow roses.

Seeing that Madeline and Jeremy had arrived, Adam got out to meet them.

“Come in,” he invited courteously. Just as he spoke, another car then pulled to a stop in front of him.

The car door opened and the person who got down from it rendered Adam stunned.
