Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife novel Chapter 1918

Coco hasten over to open the door and saw Jeremy with a hurried look on his face.

“Mr. Whitman.”

“Where’s Linnie?” Jeremy rushed into the room, but after looking all over the room, he did not see Madeline.

“Isn’t Linnie with you? Where is she?” Jeremy’s heartbeat started to beat frantically.

Coco looked at Jeremy with a confused and nervous look on her face, then explained.

“At the time, Ms. Montgomery said that there was a document left in the car and asked me to go down with her to get it, but as soon as I reached the entrance, I felt unwell, and then I didn’t know what happened next. When I woke up, I was on the bed… I think Ms. Montgomery might be the one who helped me to the bed…”

Jeremy listened to what Coco said but his eyes were firmly fixed on the two glasses of lemonade on the coffee table in the living room.

“Did you drink this?” he asked.

Coco nodded. “I only had a couple of sips.”

“What about Linnie? Did she drink it?”

“No, ” Coco replied affirmatively. “After I drank the lemonade, Ms. Montgomery said that she wanted to head down and get the documents with me.

As Coco spoke, she touched her head and tried to recall. “Now that I think about it, Ms. Montgomery seemed to be very anxious at the time…”

Jeremy’s heart pounded rapidly upon hearing this.

Without any need for guesswork, he was certain that Madeline must be in some sort of trouble now.

Jeremy turned and strode toward the door of the room. When he reached the hallway, he suddenly stopped and subconsciously looked toward the carpet.

Coco, who did not know what Jeremy had seen, only saw him suddenly kneeling as if to pick something up from the corner of the carpet.

She walked over for a look, then she could not help but exclaimed in surprise, “Isn’t this Ms. Montgomery’s ring?”

Jeremy furrowed his thin eyebrows tightly; his eyes were full of worry.
