Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman's Sinner Wife chapter 1991
Upon hearing Jeremy suddenly speaking as such, Hannah, who was very emotional to begin with, was taken aback.
However, Jeremy's gaze, ablazed, was not something that someone could approach and fool at will.
“This was initially a private matter between you and me. You can even ask me for compensation, but you've used the wrong approach.”
Jeremy's voice and eyes grew colder and colder.
“You made a fuss in my company downstairs and threatened my wife with death. You even played the victim by making a ridiculous accusation that my wife would hire someone to bully you and the child i n your womb. Heh.”
Jeremy grinned coldly. “Child?”
Hannah heard Jeremy's sarcastic words and felt the doubts of the people around her. Although she was feeling slightly guilty, Hannah, with red eyes, quickly recomposed her pitiful state and explained, “I'm just telling the facts...”
“Facts?” Jeremy interrupted Hannah indifferently. “
Let me tell you what the facts are.”
Jeremy's deep and alluring eyes darkened, then his sexy thin lips moved lightly to speak. “The fact is that I have already been sterilized. The fact is that apart from the three children my wife had given birth to, I can never have children.”
After Hannah heard this, the expression on her face stiffened a lot.
Jeremy had a vasectomy!
This was something she could never have expected no matter what!
She had thought that this lie she told could simultaneously damage the relationship between Madeline and Jeremy and also besmirch Madeline's reputation, but she had not expected Jeremy to have undergone such an operation.
Had he done this for Madeline?
She wondered in her heart. Hatred and jealousy started to grow in the depths of her heart.
Meanwhile, the reporters who were waiting for the news recovered from the shock induced by Jeremy's revelation.
Jeremy had already announced this news a long time ago!
How would they have forgotten this?
If that was the case, this woman named Hannah Bolton was lying.
Once everyone had gotten the situation straight, pairs of doubtful eyes fell on Hannah.
“Miss Bolton, why did you make up such lies?” “Did someone send you here?”
“Haven't you done any research before accusing Mr. Whitman of having an affair with you? Don't you know that Mr. Whitman had a vasectomy for Mrs. Whitman a long time ago?”
In the face of all kinds of incessant questions, Hannah felt the heavy pressure overwhelming her.
Her expression looked unpleasant, and she looked at everyone around her with glistening eyes.
“Yes, I'm not pregnant, but I do have an abnormal relationship with Mr. Whitman! I didn't lie about that! Don't you want to get the news? I can tell you all of the details! ”
Hannah emphasized, but no one believed her anymore.
Those reporters also did not dare to ask about the details in front of Jeremy.
Moreover, they were certain that Hannah was lying.
“Linnie, let's go home.” Jeremy did not want to speak any further. He held Madeline's hand and turned around.
Madeline had not uttered a single word since the beginning. After she turned around and left with Jeremy, she suddenly felt uneasy in her heart.
Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman's Sinner Wife chapter 1992
Hannah bit her lip and stared in the direction in which Jeremy and Madeline had left; her eyes were red and unwilling.
She knew that she had made a mistake; she had not investigated some things clearly before making things up.
She also knew that no one believed what she said, but she did have a relationship with Jeremy!
She would never forget what happened in the Royal Palace of St. Piaf that day for the rest of her life!
Jeremy brought Madeline back to the car. Once the car had gotten onto the road, the air about them fell into a moment of silence.
Jeremy's leg was injured, so Madeline was driving the car. After a long moment of heavy silence, Jeremy opened his mouth and spoke.
“Did you know that it was dangerous? If she could make a fuss at the entrance of the company with no regard for her own reputation, you should know that she's not a good person. How can you take the risk to see her alone?"
Jeremy's words sounded like a reproach, but in fact, he was more concerned and worried about Madeline. Madeline was very clear about this in her heart.
She stayed silent for a few seconds and then quickly admitted her mistake. “I made you worry.”
Jeremy had not wanted to make Madeline admit her mistakes when he said that. He reached out and touched Madeline's hand lightly.
Madeline felt Jeremy's concern, so she waited for the traffic light to turn red and looked at Jeremy and smiled. However, her beautiful eyebrows were slightly furrowed.
“Jeremy, what are you going to do next?”
“Are you pitying her, sympathizing with her, Linnie?”
Madeline shook her head. “She lied. She's not pregnant, and I didn't ask someone to take action against her. But you and her...”
“Linnie, let's not talk about this anymore.”
Jeremy changed the subject and frowned slightly. “ That was a trap set up by Carter. The only pity she deserves is being used by Carter.”
“She wasn't used by Carter, ” Madeline explained. “ She consented to it because she really likes you.”
When Jeremy heard that, his eyes flashed with emotion, and he looked at Madeline in slight surprise. He then heard Madeline saying those words Hannah had admitted not long ago.
This woman had cooperated with Carter knowingly. She had been used, but this was exactly what she had been looking for.
After learning about this situation, Jeremy suddenly felt a burst of disgust and mental nausea.
It turned out that there were actually many women who were shameless like Meredith in this world.
In St. Piaf.
Carter had been hiding in this room with Shirley for a few days.
The rain had been raining ceaselessly for the past few days. Shirley's body had become a little weak probably due to the rain, so she could only rest in bed every day.
Although Carter had a cold poker face every day, he still took care of Shirley patiently.
For the past few days, Shirley had been thinking about what test reagents Carter used until she saw the news of a woman named Hannah Bolton making a fuss in Whitman Corporation in Glendale when Shirley was online.
After reading all the relevant news, she finally had an accurate guess.
She put down her phone, and coincidentally, when she was about to call Carter, Carter came in with the freshly prepared meal.
“Was it the hallucinogen?” Shirley asked quite directly.
Carter stopped in his tracks, and then he walked calmly to the bed and put down the tableware.
“Eat, ” Carter said, parting his lips slightly. He had not been grooming himself in the past few days. His original soft and fair face was covered with stubbles which made him look a little more tired and as though he had been through the mill.
Shirley did not touch the tableware but merely looked at Carter coldly instead. “Answer my question. It was the hallucinogen, wasn't it? You used the hallucinogen on Jeremy, so that's why this happened! ” Shirley said and threw the phone at Carter's body. “Pick it up and see what you've done!”
Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman's Sinner Wife chapter 1993
Shirley roared out at Carter, condemnation in her tone and gaze.
Carter looked at Shirley in this state, and then he picked up the phone unhurriedly.
In fact, he had seen the news a long time ago, so how could he not know this?
Looking at the message on the screen, a slight smirk gradually appeared on Carter's gloomy face.
Upon noticing the smirk on Carter's face, a sudden burst of intense pain surged in Shirley's heart.
She really did not want Carter to be like this at all. Shirley's eyes turned red against her volition. “Answer me, Carter.”
Carter looked away and tossed the phone onto the bed.
“Yes, I did it, ” he admitted without taking it seriously. Nonetheless, the expression on his face suggested intense emotions. “I initially had everything under control, but you and Eveline taught me a lesson.”
Carter said in a leisurely tone, walked over to the bed, and sat down slowly. He picked up the tableware and prepared to feed Shirley.
“I thought I had lost horribly, but I didn't expect another unexpected thing to happen.”
His cold eyes stared at the close—up photo displayed on the phone screen.
It was the maid named Hannah Bolton.
Carter laughed in a deep voice. “Jeremy is certainly very attractive. He made the maid fall in love with him the moment he came to our place. I had been thinking of a way to deal with Jeremy. I wanted to make Jeremy face more distressing and uncomfortable things, and she happened to show up.”
As he spoke, Carter picked up the spoon and took a spoonful of oatmeal, and slowly brought it to Shirley's mouth.
However, Shirley did not appreciate the kindness. She lifted her hand to push Carter's hand away and glared at him sternly.
“Go on. What the hell did you do to Jeremy?”
Unbothered, Carter continued to play around with the bowl, then he parted his lips and said, “You still care so much about him.”
He seemed jealous, but at the same time, he was also mocking himself. He then spoke again.
“ I didn't do anything. I merely took advantage of the situation for my benefit.”
“Be more specific,” Shirley insisted coldly.
Carter raised his eyebrows and smiled. He then brought the spoon with the food to Shirley's face again.
“If you want to know the details, eat.”
Shirley did not want to accept Carter's kindness, but she still chose to compromise at this moment.
When Carter saw that Shirley was eating again, the smile on his face looked more pleasant now.
While feeding Shirley, he said, “That day at the Royal Palace of St. Piaf, I had let the maid stay with Jeremy. I was already prepared. As long as Jeremy ate something, no matter if it's a drink or a snack, he will consume the hallucinogen you developed back then.
“Despite his vigilance, he still fell into my trap. But even if he hadn't eaten anything, I'd still have other ways to make him get in contact with the hallucinogen.”
Carter's face looked extremely confident as he spoke.
He had been obviously confident with his plan, but he had not expected Shirley to know how to break his hypnotism, and that had completely halted his original seamless plan.
His dreams and ambitions had been stopped abruptly.
He was angry, but he did not blame Shirley.
Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman's Sinner Wife chapter 1994
He fed Shirley another bite and leisurely continued speaking.
“When the hallucinogen started to affect Jeremy's consciousness, I had someone take him to the room in which the maid was already waiting. Just like Jeremy, she was also exposed to the hallucinogen without her realizing.”
After hearing this, everything became clear to Shirley.
“You confused them both, making them think that they had intimate contact with each other."
Shirley concluded with certainty, and her eyes were looking at Carter with more disappointment.
“Carter, you're irredeemable.”
Carter paused as he was scooping the food. “I'm irredeemable?”
He chuckled lightly. “You're the one who's crazy.”
“I'm crazy?”
Karen also hurriedly followed her. “I'm going to keep an eye on Eveline. If those people dare do anything out of line, I will have the bodyguards kick them all out! ”
Jeremy looked at Karen's back figure as she hurriedly caught up to Madeline. Deep down, he was deeply moved.
Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman's Sinner Wife chapter 1998
It had not been like this at the beginning. Karen would have gotten annoyed at the sight of Madeline.
Presently, however, Karen was always defending her daughter-in-law, Madeline.
Everything was certainly unpredictable.
Jeremy slowly got up. He walked to the balcony and could clearly see Hannah standing at the gate playing the victim. Not far behind her, many reporters were waiting for the matter to blow up.
After a while, Jeremy saw Madeline wandering into his line of sight.
She had a graceful figure, and the coat draped over her body gently swung with each of her elegant and steady steps.
Madeline's aura was powerful, and her majestic walk beheld an invulnerable edge.
Since Jeremy's eyesight was very good, he could clearly see that Hannah's eyes went cold when she saw Madeline.
Jeremy's cold eyes narrowed slightly; he was prepared to go downstairs at any time.
In front of the gate of the old house.
Hannah's pale-looking face looked calm as she stared straight at the approaching Madeline.
Madeline walked up to Hannah very calmly and she said directly, “If you have any ideas and motives, just spit it out. Don't waste everyone's time.”
As she spoke, she did not forget to glance at the reporter in the distance.
“The weather today is cold. Just get on with it lest everyone needs to watch your performance while standing in the cold wind.”
Hannah clenched her fists. The thing she could not bear the most was Madeline's constantly indifferent attitude.
She glared at Madeline and suddenly sneered. “I know in your heart that you're very bothered by this, but you have to pretend to be indifferent.”
Hannah started to approach Madeline as she spoke in a mocking tone.
“Don't get any closer to my daughter-in-law!” Karen stopped Hannah from approaching. “What the hell are you doing with these reporters in my house, you crazy woman? Just spit it out immediately!”
Hannah paused and stared at Karen in dissatisfaction. “Daughter-in -law? If she's your daughter-in-law, what am I? I'm a traditional woman. Since Mr. Whitman and I already have an intimate relationship, he needs to give me an explanation and a name no matter what. Otherwise, this matter will never be resolved.”
Upon hearing this, Karen's face fell.
“What nonsense are you talking about? Why would Jeremy have such a relationship with you? How dare you fantasize about joining our family. You're simply delusional.”
“I'm delusional? Hmph. You're the number one rich family in Glendale, huh? Do you think just because you're rich and powerful you can use your power to stop me from talking? I'm telling you. I won't back down out of fear!”
“You...”
Karen was so mad that she was speechless for a moment.
“Mom, don't be mad, ” Madeline comforted, then she turned her head and smiled at Hannah confidently.
“Since you came prepared, Miss Bolton, then we'll not beat around the bush with you. It's very windy here, so if you don't mind, come inside for some hot tea and we'll sit down to talk.”
Upon hearing that, Hannah hesitated for a while, but soon after, she smiled confidently.
“There are so many reporters here, so I don't believe that you'll do anything to me once I'm inside.”
After Hannah said that, she took the lead and strode through the door as if she was the matriarch of the house.
Madeline looked at the frowning and confused reporters before turning around to go inside.
Baffled, Karen stopped Madeline. “Eveline, why are you letting her inside?”
Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman's Sinner Wife chapter 1999
Madeline raised her eyebrows and glanced in the direction where the reporters were. “Mom, don't worry, I know what I'm doing.”
“Of course, I know you know what you' re doing, and you have your own ideas, but I feel that we're letting her take advantage of us.”
Madeline smiled lightly when she heard that. “ It's not about taking advantage or not. Just treat her as a normal guest.”
“Guest?” Karen's eyes were full of contempt.“ If I hadn't seen a video of her making a fuss at the company, I would've treated her as a guest.”
Karen muttered in annoyance. Still worried, she then warned, “Eveline, women like her never come with good intentions, so you have to be careful.”
Madeline lowered her eyes and glanced at the gauze wrapped around the back of her hand. “ I was at a disadvantage once, so there won't be a next time.”
“That's good.” Karen breathed a sigh of relief.
The reporters who stayed not far in front of the door could not help but feel a little perplexed by the situation.
They were here to find more news and they wanted to watch Hannah make a big fuss about this, but now Madeline was letting Hannah into the house.
They could not wrap their heads around this. Why was Madeline being so polite with Hannah?
However, they could not do anything even if they did not understand. They could only stay here and wait. They dared not simply enter the gates of Whitman Manor.
As soon as Karen entered the house, she asked the servant to carry Madeline's youngest son upstairs.
Madeline was very generous. She even asked the servants to prepare tea and snacks.
“Miss Bolton, you should be tired after making a fuss for so long? Have some black tea and some snacks. We can start talking again after we're recharged.”
After hearing what Madeline said, Hannah glanced at the snacks and tea on the coffee table dismissively.
“I didn't come here to have tea and chat with you. I'm here to seek justice for myself.”
Madeline nodded and smiled. “Well, Miss Bolton, please tell me, what kind of justice do you want?”
“I want Mr. Whitman to be responsible for me!” Hannah stated her intentions and then her eyes turned sharp. “I don't need money! I only want Mr. Whitman to be responsible for me.”
“Hmph.” Karen snorted coldly and glanced at Hannah lightly. “You mean you want to be part of the Whitman family by becoming our daughter-in- law?”
With a serious face, Hannah looked at Karen and asked, “Isn't Mr. Whitman supposed to be responsible for me?”
“Yes, ” Madeline said, giving a very surprising answer to everyone present in the room.
Hannah and Karen looked at Madeline in shock. They were both wondering if they had heard wrongly.
However, Madeline smiled, her expression very serious. “Miss Bolton, you can state your requirements, but I hope you'll be realistic.”
“Realistic?” Hannah frowned. “Are you saying you want to compensate me financially?”
As she said that, she rolled her eyes disapprovingly. “Eveline, what I want to tell you is that I will not accept anything else aside from Mr. Whitman
taking responsibility for what he had done to me.”
Madeline smiled and shook her head. “You're wrong. What I mean is, the Whitmans will not compensate you a single cent.”
Hannah was stunned and confused. “Eveline, what do you mean?”
“I mean I won't give you any financial compensation. You want my husband to be responsible for you, don't you? I'll grant that.”
Bewildered, Hannah looked at Madeline who spoke, and Hannah could not believe what she just heard.
Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman's Sinner Wife chapter 2000
Madeline actually wanted Jeremy to be responsible for her?
Did this mean that Madeline was agreeing to let her be part of the family?
There were many doubts in Hannah's mind.
While she was in a state of confusion and shock, she saw Karen pulling Madeline to the side.
She then saw Karen whispering in Madeline's ear, but she could not hear what Karen was saying to Madeline.
“Eveline, what are you talking about? Are you agreeing to take this woman on Jeremy's behalf?”
Karen looked at Madeline in confusion.
Madeline nodded with a casual expression. “Yeah, since she so firmly wants Jeremy to be responsible for her, we'll let her be part of the family.”
“W-What?” Karen's eyes widened in shock, completely unable to understand what Madeline meant.
“Eveline, you are crazy! Even if you agree to it, Jeremy won't!”
“I agree too.” Jeremy's voice suddenly slipped into her ears. Madeline and Karen looked over at him when they heard his voice. They did not know when Jeremy came downstairs.
Hannah, who was sitting on the sofa when she saw Jeremy coming over, immediately stood up. Her eyes were also filled with a lot of admiration and expectation.
“Mr. Whitman.” She called out to Jeremy and walked toward him slowly.
Jeremy ignored Hannah. He lowered his eyes to look into Madeline's clear eyes.
As they looked at each other and smiled, it seemed that they had an instant and tacit understanding.
Without any exchange of words between Jeremy and Madeline, Jeremy immediately raised his deep and alluring eyes to look at Hannah.
“Since you want to be part of this family so much, we'll fulfill your wish.”
Jeremy agreed, parting his lips lightly.
Hannah widened her eyes. “Mr. Whitman, are you serious? Are you really willing to take responsibility for me?”
Jeremy looked at Hannah without emotion. “I don't like repeating what I've said.”
Upon hearing this, Hannah looked at Jeremy dazedly. After returning to her senses, a cheerful, albeit shy and embarrassed, smile gradually appeared on her face.
“Mr. Whitman, I-I didn't mean to make things difficult for you deliberately. I just want to stay with you and take care of you.”
Hannah expressed her feelings for Jeremy.
“I never believed in love at first sight, but since meeting you, Mr. Whitman, I believe it. As long as I can stay by your side, I am satisfied.”
“Really?” Jeremy asked casually, and Hannah nodded repeatedly.
“Then you'll just stay here. We need some time to deal with the procedural matters.”
“I understand! I'm not in a hurry! ” Hannah smiled, and her attitude had obviously changed.
She did not even look at Madeline and the others in the room. It was as if she could only see Jeremy.
“Mr. Whitman, where am I sleeping tonight?” she asked. Her eyes were filled with distress and worry.
“You're still injured, and now your hand is also wounded. I hope I can stay by your side to take care of you. Can I?”
“Of course not!” Karen rejected firmly.
As she spoke, she glared at Madeline and Jeremy unhappily, and then she started scolding them sternly.
“Are you two insane? You finally got together after so many obstacles. You got married and even have children, so what the hell are you doing now? Are you going to throw your whole family away for this lascivious woman?”
Madeline and Jeremy wanted to explain their decisions to Karen later, but Hannah immediately snapped back.
“Lascivious? Are you calling me lascivious? Mr. Whitman and I consented to that, and it takes two to tango. So, how can you say that I am lascivious?”
