Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife novel Chapter 20

 

Chapter 20

When Madeline remembered her battered self. she did not know what to do.

Every woman would want to present their best selves to the man they loved. However. whenever she was with him, she would be in her worst and most torn-up state. At this moment, she was even covered in the scars he had given her.

“Who allowed you to come in?” Jeremy stopped outside the door.

Madeline looked at him. “This is my home.”

“Your home?” The man chuckled lowly. “Do you think you have the right to call this your home?”

The light in Madeline’s eyes faded. Jeremy's words stabbed her heart like glass shards.

“If Mer weren't so kind, you would still be rotting in prison.” Jeremy’s words were laced with love for Meredith.

Madeline scoffed. “Yeah, if it weren't not for . 1 wouldn’t have ended up in such a place.”

It was obvious that Jeremy was enraged by what she had said. “You're still trying to talk back at a time like this?”

“Jeremy. I did not! I’m telling the truth!” Madeline clenched her fists and emphasized her words with her head high.

Nonetheless. the man’s handsome face was covered by a layer of frost. He lifted his icy glare and peered at Madeline. “No, huh? Alright, get over there and kneel. I'll believe you if you kneel until the rain stops.”

Madeline was stunned. and she subconsciously touched her stomach.

“Don't you want me to believe you? Why are you still standing here?” Jeremy said in a cold voice.

Madeline stood in the rain as she lifted her tearful eyes at the man who used to care about her so much in her memories. “Jeremy. I have...”

“Jeremy. I'm hungry.”

Before Madeline could finish talking, Meredith’s girly voice was heard from inside the house.

So. Meredith was here.

An indescribable pain started to spread all over her body. Madeline’s heart sank. It was as if it was sinking in a bottomless abyss.

Jeremy peered at Madeline impatiently. “Meredith will spend the night here. If you want to enter this house. you'll have to kneel until I’m happy.”

After he said that, he slammed the door and turned around mercilessly.

The cold rain fell onto Madelin’s body. Consequently, the temperature of her heart plummeted along with the temperature of her body.

The sky became dark, and Madeline saw that the lights were turned on in the master

bedroom. Two shadows were casted on the curtain, and they were such a sore sight.

‘Jeremy. will you really believe me?’

‘At the end of the day, I still won't be able to compare to Meredith's breath when next to you in bed...’

After that night, still in a drowsy state. Madeline was met with Meredith's smirk.
