Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife novel Chapter 427

Chapter 427

Jeremy made a beeline to the study and saw light streaming out of the room from afar.

His gaze sunk a little as his footsteps unconsciously slowed down.

Just when he reached the door of the study and was about to enter, Madeline walked out while holding Jackson.

Madeline was surprised when she saw Jeremy. “Jeremy, why are you also awake?” She smiled a little. “I’ll send Jack back to his room to sleep first.”

Jeremy did not ask anything and just nodded.

Seeing Madeline turning around and leading Jackson back, his gaze lingered for a while before he turned around and walked into the study.

After Madeline had sent Jackson back to his room, she whispered, “Jack, can you promise Mommy not to tell your dad what happened just now?”

Jackson blinked his clear, big eyes twice, then nodded his head. “Jack will listen to Mommy and not tell Dad.”

“Thanks, Jack.” Madeline caressed the little guy’s head and lovingly kissed his pink and tender cheek. “It’s very late, go to sleep.”

After Jackson lay down on the bed obediently, his small, fair hand gently pulled at Madeline’s skirt.

“Can Mommy put me to sleep?”

There was a hint of pleading in his infantile voice, and his expectant look made Madeline feel even more touched.

She could not refuse the little guy’s request at all.

She smiled gently. “Of course.”

Jackson showed his cute little white snaggletooth as he smiled happily, then he closed his eyes.

Madeline covered him with a blanket, then hummed softly. “Rock-a-bye baby, in the treetop…”

She sang and sang, but suddenly, the corners of her eyes were wet with tears.

She could not help but think of the missing child.
