Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife

Chapter 53

Chapter 53

His low and deep voice lingered in her ears, and Madeline’s heart beat faster. However, she would not have the naive expectations that she used to have anymore. Now, her love for Jeremy was overpowered by her hatred toward him.

Madeline did not expect that Old Master Whitman would not mind that she had been to prison for three years. Instead, he kindly told Madeline to restart her life and live a good life with Jeremy.

The old master was obviously an old-fashioned person. Therefore, it stood to reason that he should be furious and even disgusted by his granddaughter-in-law for having done such a crime. However, at this moment, Madeline was stunned. She felt grateful and warm. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

The old master also reminded her of her grandfather who had passed away. They were all such kind- hearted old men.

Madeline ate dinner at Whitman Manor. She could clearly feel that everyone except for the old master was sneering at her, especially Jeremy’s mother.

After the old master left, Jeremy’s mother showed a look of contempt at Madeline. “If you’re smart, you should take the initiative to propose a non-contentious divorce and not hinder Jeremy and Meredith’s wedding.”

She was extremely snobbish and was looking down on Madeline.

“You killed Meredith’s child once. If you have a conscience, you should divorce Jeremy immediately.”

Slowly, Madeline understood what was happening. She looked at Jeremy. He sat at one side and did not speak. It was obvious that this was his intention.

She wanted to burst out laughing. After trying to wrap her head around this for so long, she finally realized that they did not dare to disobey the old master, so they wanted her to be the one who proposed the divorce instead.

Then, Meredith arrived just in time while holding a little boy whose cheeks were blushing pink.

Madeline’s heart throbbed. Looking at the boy’s pink and tender face, she thought of her precious daughter who had died tragically.

She looked at the child who was standing next to Meredith and her heart felt as if it was being stabbed by a knife.

If her child had not died, she would be at his age now.

Suddenly, there was a strong reluctance in her heart.

Seeing Meredith’s triumphant face, Madeline smiled deeply. “Why should I take the initiative to file for divorce?”

When she asked this question, the smile on Meredith’s face disappeared.

Jeremy’s reaction was surprisingly calm. He glanced at Madeline with interest and said nothing.

Madeline was a little uncomfortable with how he looked at her. “Jeremy, I won’t divorce you. Otherwise, how would I be worthy of all the things I did to get on your bed?”

She said this deliberately just to disgust Meredith and the people who could not wait to see Jeremy dump her.

“Madeline! How can you be so cheap? Don’t be so shameless!” Jeremy’s mother said angrily.

Madeline did not care. She watched as Meredith’s eyes became darker.

Meredith was obviously very upset, but she could not do anything. She said innocently and softly to Madeline, “Maddie, I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. Jeremy and you have lawfully wedded after all. I’m the superfluous one.”

“If you know that you’re superfluous, why don’t you go away? Are you proud of seducing a married man?” Madeline did not go easy on Meredith at all.

Meredith was stunned and had an awkward expression on her face. A few seconds later, she ran out while covering her face aggrievedly.

“Mommy.” Seeing Meredith’s departure, the child waddled adorably after her.

Madeline was tired of watching Meredith putting on a show, but unfortunately, it still worked on these people.

Jeremy looked at Madeline with a dark expression before turning around to chase after Meredith. Jeremy’s mother also walked away while grumbling.

Madeline left, but she did not expect to see Meredith and Jeremy’s child as soon as she went out.

Looking at his delicate and angelic face, Madeline was heartbroken.

Why should her baby be cruelly burnt to ashes while Meredith’s son was so favored by everyone?

How unfair!

Madeline clenched her fists and was unable to control the flames of hatred in her heart.

She walked forward and went straight to the child.
