Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife novel Chapter 1771

Madeline and Jeremy’s expressions changed at the same time.

Additionally, Madeline saw the confident smile on Carter’s face, and it seemed that he truly knew Lilian’s whereabouts.

Her heart started to race. She wanted to know Lillia’s whereabouts. She desperately wanted to know, no matter how insignificant a clue.

However, knowing Carter, how would he reveal to them this information so easily?

Jeremy too shared the same thought.

He looked at Carter, and his seductive lips curved into an intriguing smile.

“I didn’t expect you to have such an understanding of my daughter’s location, Mr. Gray. In that case, I truly want to seek your counsel. Where is my daughter?”

Carter smiled knowingly in turn. “Mr. Whitman, you’re a businessman. You should understand that to get something valuable, you’d need to offer

something in exchange.”

“What do you want?” Jeremy asked directly.

“I want 50% of the Whitman Corporation’s share, ” Carter said bluntly.

Jeremy remained calm when he heard that.

He was about to speak, but Madeline was one step ahead of him.

She grinned, seemingly gentle and sweet, but her beautiful eyes shone with a rare edge.

“Mr. Gray, you truly know how to crack a joke. My husband and I would not hesitate to agree even if you had asked for 1oo%, let alone 50%. My daughter is priceless. Do you understand what I mean, Mr. Gray?”

Upon hearing Madeline’s words, he gave a low chuckle.

“You’re right, Mrs. Whitman. I was indeed joking. How could I measure your precious daughter with physical objects?”

Carter followed Madeline’s cue and extricated himself from the situation.
