Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife novel Chapter 1716

Chapter 1716

As Shirley was speaking, she looked at Lillian who was leaning against the hospital bed with a confused face.

She placed the baby’s breath, which had been in her hand, on the bedstand. A moment ago, Shirley’s eyes had been full of hostility and sarcasm. Her eyes were gentle as they scanned Lillian’s small face, then, with an arrogant and disdainful look, fell back onto Madeline.

“Eveline, I know you’re a special woman. You’re so special that you’re unyielding and tenacious. However, she should also know that I’m an evil woman. That is why I had especially concocted the poison in your body.”

“What about it?” Madeline asked indifferently.

Shirley’s beautiful eyes narrowed. “You already had three flare-ups. After these three stages, the poison in your body will slowly reach the final stage.”

As she spoke, she stopped for two seconds, taking two steps toward Madeline.

As Shirley confronted Madeline’s naturally stunning face which wore no makeup, Shirley’s eyes were tinged with a hint of regret and pity.

“Eveline, you won’t be able to endure the final stage.”

“Is that so?”

“Yes.” Shirley decisively gave her a firm answer. “Eveline, let me ask you a question. What’s the most terrifying and mortifying experience that you’re most reluctant to relive in your life?”

The most terrifying and mortifying experience that she was not reluctant to relive…

For some reason, Madeline felt as if her emotions were being drawn out by Shirley’s words. She immediately thought of the experience from years ago. Those extremely painful and dark memories…

At that moment, Shirley caught the uneasiness that flashed across Madeline’s eyes.

“Linnie. Linnie.”

Upon hearing the man’s gentle voice calling out to her by her side, Madeline abruptly returned to her senses. She blinked in surprise as she noticed that, unbeknownst to her, Shirley had already left, and Jeremy and Jackson were before her eyes.
