Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife novel Chapter 616

Chapter 616

Felipe looped an arm around Madeline’s shoulders. “Let’s go, Eveline. It’s time to board.”

“Alright.” Madeline nodded and held Jackson’s hand. “Let’s go board the plane, Jack.”

“But Daddy isn’t here yet.” Jackson pulled his pink lips into a pout, reluctant to leave. “Won’t we wait a little longer for Dad, Mom?”

Madeline walked out of Felipe’s embrace and comforted him with a small smile. “We’re not waiting for Dad anymore, Jack. He’s too busy with work to come.”

“Jeremy isn’t busy with work. He’s staying with the old master in the hospital!” Winston blurted out the truth.

Felipe’s eyes darkened as Madeline turned to look at Winston in confusion, urging him to go on.

“The old master is in the hospital. The doctor told us to be prepared for the worst since he might not have much time left. Still, the old master just woke up and he kept calling your name. Jeremy told me not to disturb you, but I couldn’t help come looking for you either.”

Madeline was shocked. “The old master was calling my name?”

Winston nodded in certainty, his eyes glistening with worry and pleading. “The old master hasn’t said anything but ‘Madeline’ since he woke up. He really wants to see you.”

Madeline felt her heart clench.

Reading hesitance in Madeline’s appearance, Felipe stepped up decisively and grabbed Madeline’s hand. “We’ve gotten so far, Eveline. Don’t look back now.”

Madeline found determination in Felipe’s eyes. She was about to open her mouth when she heard Winston’s sincere voice. “I know you hate every one of us in the Whitman family, Madeline, but the old master was the one who treated you the best the years you were married into the family. He was the one who believed and supported you no matter what, and even if you’ve lost your memories, I think your heart still remembers the kindness the old master showed you.”

Felipe had run out of patience. “Enough. You just want to gain time for Jeremy.”

“Felipe,” Madeline called out to an enraged Felipe. “I want to see Grandfather.”

Relief washed over Winston’s features while Felipe’s expression darkened, but he could not hold Madeline back.
