Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife novel Chapter 1875

Madeline thought about the expression in Shirley’s eyes. Shirley had not seemed like someone who was delirious. Her gaze had been firm, and it had been evidently signaling for Madeline to leave Gray Villa a s soon as possible.

In hindsight, Shirley had pretended to be scared at that moment so she could manipulate Carter, creating a smooth exit for Madeline.

“Jeremy, is it possible that the effects of AXP6g’s anti- toxoid test reagent differ between when it’s ingested and when it’s injected?” The question came from the depths of Madeline’s heart because she felt that Shirley’s symptoms differed from Madeline’s during Madeline’s flare-up.

Jeremy had a faint guess from Madeline’s question. “Have you noticed anything wrong, Linnie?”

Madeline nodded. “You told me this before. When I went through the final stage of the flare-up, my memories were stuck at my most painful moments, and I could not even remember that we were in love. But Shirley seemed to be different.”

“How was she behaving?” Jeremy continued to ask curiously.

Madeline could not help getting lost in thought. Her expression became increasingly solemn.

“Perhaps I’m overthinking it. For Shirley, the most tragic memory is losing her only relative in the world.”

That was why Shirley kept seeing the hallucination of the fire in front of her. That was why she kept murmuring to herself that Adam and Cathy’s bodies were buried beneath a sea of flame…

The thought of this felt like a knife stabbing through Madeline’s heart.

Without Adam, Madeline would not have had the faith to live when she had been in prison without hope back then.

Jackson, who had been growing inside her womb at the time, was the final source of light during that dark period of her life.

It had been that source of light that had guided her till the end, and Adam had been the sole reason that the light had not burnt out.

It had been the same for Cathy.

Cathy had always stepped forward without hesitation whenever Madeline or Jeremy needed help.

Now, however, they had been burned to death. Madeline’s heart still ached  for  them  no matter how much she thought about it. In addition,  she felt a deep sense of regret.
