Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife novel Chapter 2023

Madeline vaguely heard Lillian’s name, so she quickly turned and walked downstairs.

Fabian seemed to hear Madeline’s footsteps coming downstairs and he deliberately walked towards the door, avoiding Madeline.

Noticing Fabian’s move, Madeline hurried to catch up, but when she walked up to Fabian, he had just hung up the phone.

“Fabian, who were you on the call with? Is it related to Lily? Where have you taken Lily?”

Madeline’s face was full of worry as she questioned, “Fabian, tell me!”

Fabian chuckled nonchalantly in the face of Madeline’s anxious questioning.

“Eveline, don’t waste time and energy. I won’t tell you where Lillian is.”

Fabian’s answer was extraordinarily cold and inhumane.

Madeline knew that he was acting like this because of prejudice against herself and Jeremy.

Madeline simultaneously felt helpless and very regretful.

“Fabian, when we first met, you were a positive, unruly, and energetic boy who strived to improve yourself. I’d thought we would always be good friends, but I didn’t expect us to be reduced to this kind of relationship.”

Madeline sighed involuntarily.

“Fabian, Lily is still just a child. She doesn’t understand anything. She is sick and needs the care and solicitude of her mom and dad. If you returned my daughter to me, Jeremy and I would accept however you want to deal with us.”

Fabian, unmoved as he listened to Madeline, then turned to meet Madeline’s gaze.

“I  know she’s ill, so I’ve asked a doctor to treat her. She’s better off recuperating with me than going back with you. I also took photos of those examination reports for you to see, didn’t I?”

“I know that you’ve been very good to Lily, but at the end of the day, she’s still my daughter.”

Madeline emphasized this and hoped that Fabian could understand how she felt as Lillian’s mother.

Fabian, however, did not want to understand, and instead, he just chuckled.
