Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife novel Chapter 215

Chapter 215

Seeing Tanner charge over, Madeline thought of the atrocities he had done to her.

After a flash of a moment, when she had finally reacted to counterattack, a gust of wind roared from behind her all of a sudden.

Jeremy’s warm palms held onto her shoulders tightly, bringing her to the side.

Madeline was instantly surrounded by a familiar yet unfamiliar warm breath. Before she could see clearly, she saw Tanner swiping the air before hitting the tree. It was followed by Jeremy’s right hand twisting him around.

Tanner suddenly screamed, “Ow, ow!” However, Jeremy did not let up. He lifted his foot to Tanner’s knee and kicked him viciously, forcing Tanner to kneel down before kicking him away.

Madeline thought that Jeremy wanted to continue to teach Tanner a lesson, but he suddenly hugged her tightly, worried.

“Don’t be afraid, I’m here. I won’t let anyone bully you again.”

His gentle voice slipped into her ears like water in the night. It was so unbelievably gentle, carrying a trace of tension and worry as if he was really worried that she would be hurt.

Madeline opened her eyes blankly, feeling Jeremy’s embrace increasingly tighten.

Fine beads of rain fell from the sky, then densely. It was accompanied by the late summer breeze. It was so cold.

Yet the heat from his chest, which was pressed close to her and penetrated into her skin through their clothes, was so hot.

At such a close distance, she could hardly tell if it was her own heartbeat or Jeremy’s heartbeat that was disturbing her thoughts at the moment.

When she was almost lost in a daze, the pain from her invisible wounds made Madeline sober. “Mr. Whitman, if you continue doing this, I’ll get angry,” she spoke softly, and the meaning of refusal was obvious.

Jeremy’s eyes froze as if he had just walked back from a beautiful dream.

“Sorry,” he whispered softly in her ear, then let go of his embrace.

He grabbed Tanner, who had wanted to run, and pushed him to the tree. His deep black eyes pierced Tanner like a poisonous sword.
