Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife novel Chapter 1696

Chapter 1696

Carter smiled slightly as he gracefully placed the cup down.

Without speaking further, he stood up and left.

Cathy stood up in response. “Carter Gray.”

She called out, but Carter ignored her and continued to walk on.

Cathy had thought of chasing after him, but then saw Shirley walking past Carter and toward her.

Upon seeing her stunning face, memories started to resurface in Cathy’s mind.

“You’re Adam’s sister (TN: Cathy formally addressed Adam as a senior here), aren’t you?”

Shirley curled her red lips into a smile. She then took out a cigarette, taking a drag. “Adam? I had thought you were already my sister-in-law, but I guess that’s not the case.”

Although Cathy understood what Shirley had meant, she did not panic. “Do you and Carter know each other? Why did you guys bring me here?”

Shirley did not answer Cathy’s question. She took another drag of her cigarette and asked, “The person you love is named Felipe Whitman, is that right?”

Cathy’s felt as though something had brutally pierced her heart at the mention of Felipe.

She absentmindedly stared at Shirley; her gaze seemed unfocused.

Seeing the dazed-looking Cathy, Shirley’s smile immediately vanished.

“My brother had given you his heart and had even raised those two brats for you, yet all you keep thinking about is that man, Felipe. Love and relationships in this world are just unfair, isn’t it?

“Nonetheless, God is still somewhat fair. Now that the Felipe guy is dead, would you say that this is your karma for disappointing my brother?”

Hearing the word “karma”, Cathy quickly returned to her senses.

She looked into Shirley’s eyes which flickered with a disdainful grin, and calmly said, “If there’s truly karma in this world, then the ones who deserve it the most are those malefactors who commit wicked acts.”
