Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife novel Chapter 897

Chapter 897

Jeremy was no stranger to being admired, but it was his first time meeting someone as open with her affections as Lana.

Not to mention that her going on her tiptoes to kiss him was evidently done for Madeline to see.

However, Jeremy had not let Lana touch him. Pushing her away, he stated coldly, “Leave me alone.”

He warned before turning to walk toward Madeline.

Madeline seemed to have knocked into a friend, so she did not see Lana trying to kiss Jeremy.

Jeremy let out a breath of relief.

He did not want Madeline to misunderstand anything.

Madeline’s conversation came to an end, and she turned around to see Jeremy approaching her with her purse and a warm smile. “I’m suddenly craving Spanish food, Linnie. Let’s eat somewhere else.”

Madeline found his sudden change in decision weird.

Peering subtly at Lana who was not too far away, she reached out to link her arm with Jeremy’s. “Let’s go.”

After leaving the restaurant, Madeline asked Jeremy, “Did Lana say something? You couldn’t possibly have a sudden craving for Spanish food, could you?”

Not wanting to upset Madeline, Jeremy gave a reasonable excuse. “She says that her business is legal, but she’s still Yorick Johnson’s sister. I’d rather we try to reduce our contact with the Stygian Johnsons to as little as possible.”

Jeremy’s words made sense, so Madeline left it at that.

That night, Madeline suddenly received a call from Lana while she was doing crafts with the children.

Lana spoke of her desire to partner with Madeline in perfume manufacturing but was rejected softly by Madeline as she remembered the things Jeremy had said to her in the day.
