Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife novel Chapter 1714

Chapter 1714

“You’re moving in with me?” Cathy felt surprised, but she also quickly figured out the reason.

“Is it because you don’t want anything else unexpected to happen to me, getting kidnapped to be used for blackmail again, so you want to protect me?”

Adam looked at Cathy without denying it.

“I don’t want you to go through any further shock. Even if they want to do anything to you again, at least I’ll be by your side to protect you.”

Cathy felt touched by Adam’s words, but they both knew that was not the same as love.

…

After Adam and Cathy had left, Jeremy stayed in the hospital room, watching over the two girls he cared for the most in this life.

One was his beloved wife, and the other was his precious little princess who he longed to protect. These two were so important to him, yet he could not protect them.

He lifted his hand and stroked Madeline’s cheek softly. Even the sight of her sleeping face could not dispel his anxiety.

Whenever he thought about that unknown final stage of the poison, Jeremy felt as if his heart was burning.

“Linnie, what should I do to make everything better?”

Jeremy held Madeline’s hand, kissing it again and again.

It seemed that he had never felt so helpless before. It was because this predicament was beyond his control and understanding.

That poison was developed by a specialist, so even if he were to start researching it now, it would still be too late.

The only thing he could do right now was to trust Adam. On the other hand, that woman was now essentially a fanatic. She no longer had any thoughts or opinions, and would only listen to Carter.

After Jeremy had kept watch for a night, Madeline awoke the next morning.

Lillian blinked her huge eyes and smiled.

Madeline felt her heart ache further as she held the little girl. “Lily, I’ll heal you no matter what.”

Lillian seemed to understand as she nodded knowingly.

Madeline truly felt relieved. She hoped that her daughter would be intelligent, but not too intelligent.

“Daddy,” the little girl suddenly called out for Jeremy.

“Daddy’s bringing Jack to see you. They’ll be here soon, so wait a little longer, Lily,” Madeline comforted Lillian in a soft voice.

Lillian blinked and suddenly, her lively, wide eyes stared toward the door, her gaze seemingly frozen.

Madeline found it odd, so she looked in the direction of the little princess’s gaze. She immediately saw an uninvited guest.
