Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife

Chapter 225

Jeremy looked down at her, the girl he had once said he would guard forever, and a sarcastic smile crawled onto his handsome face. “I didn’t even find the driver.”

“…” No one had thought that Jeremy would suddenly say such a sentence.

The air in the entire living room seemed to freeze instantly as Meredith’s eyes went wide like saucers. She was looking at Jeremy’s handsome face that was full of disappointment and mockery with shock.

He had actually set her up!

She had admitted to framing Madeline with Tanner out of fear!

Madeline was sitting quietly at the side, but her heart was not calm at the moment.

Just the previous day, Jeremy had asked her to dress like Madeline to set Tanner up, but that failed.

She initially thought that no human or physical evidence could be found to prove the fact that Meredith did such an evil deed back then. However, what she did not expect was that Jeremy would actually use this tactic at this time to make Meredith obediently confess. Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

Her heart trembled acutely.

She could not tell what she was feeling at the moment.

Felipe reached out and held her hand gently.

They exchanged glances. Although there was no communication, there was a mutual and tacit understanding through the signal in their gazes.

“It really is you!” Old Master Whitman picked up his cane and pointed it at Meredith angrily. “You actually partnered with an outsider to kidnap your own son and frame Madeline for this crime! You… You’re abominable!”

Old Master Whitman’s hands trembled in anger. His face was livid, and as he spoke, he was about to beat Meredith with the cane in his hand.

Seeing this, Eloise hurried forward to stop Old Master Whitman. “Old Master, what are you doing? How could you hit Meredith? She must have her reasons!”

Reasons?

Seeing that Eloise was still defending Meredith even at this point, Madeline’s heart seemed to sink into the glacier inch by inch.

She had initially thought that maybe on the day when the truth came to light, she would become soft- hearted and long to return to the embrace of her biological parents. When that happened, she would let all bygones be bygones.

However, Eloise’s behavior of defending Meredith blindly made her completely and bitterly disappointed.

At this moment, Meredith had tears streaming down her face, looking aggrieved. “Old Master Whitman! I never thought about partnering with outsiders to kidnap Jack. That’s my flesh and blood who I nurtured in my stomach for ten months. How could I be willing to?!

She looked at Jeremy while holding his arms tightly with both hands. “Jeremy, I didn’t want to do it either. I was forced by Madeline!”

Meredith once again shifted all the blame to Madeline.

‘Forced by me?’

Madeline smiled without a trace.

She really did not know how she had forced Meredith to do such a thing.

Madeline looked at Meredith who was crying so hard with a smile, then she heard her continue to say, “At the time, Madeline had hurt me again and again. She even hurt Jack. Although I was repeatedly tolerant, Madeline still challenged my limit again and again…

“And every time I think of our first child who was killed by her, my heart ached even more. That’s why I lost my head for a moment and was instigated by Tanner to do such a thing…

“Jeremy, I was forced. Madeline forced me! Jeremy, think about our first child. Think of how cruel and vicious Madeline was! Every time I think about that miscarried child, my heart hurts so much…”

Meredith’s explanation fell in a series of words. The huge living hall was so quiet and she was the only one crying.

“Meredith, don’t cry. I’m here.” Eloise hugged Meredith, comforting her with much adoration.

Seeing this, Sean also stepped forward and patted Meredith’s shoulder while consoling her. “You all heard that. Meredith was forced by that Madeline. If you want to blame someone, blame Madeline. She had always bullied Meredith, and Meredith was just retaliating!”

Hearing what Sean had said, Madeline’s already frozen heart suffered another blow.

Her heart seemed to be broken instantly, the pieces of debris falling into her thoracic cavity. She was attacked by a burst of intense stinging.

At this time, Mrs. Whitman also stood by Meredith’s side decisively. “Old Master Whitman, what Meredith and the in-laws have said does make sense. It’s all because of Madeline seeking her own death! She killed Meredith and Jeremy’s first child. What happened afterward was all her own retribution and not anyone else’s fault!”

“You… You’re all ridiculous!” Old Master Whitman was furious. He pointed at Meredith angrily. “You still speak plausibly and volubly after doing such a thing, and all of you still defend her like this!”

“But it’s always been like that! Old Master Whitman, think about it. If it weren’t for that damn Madeline who bullied Meredith all those times, how could Meredith resort to such a thing? A good person was bullied, but that doesn’t mean that they should be bullied!”

Mrs. Whitman stuck up for Meredith resolutely and turned her head to look at Jeremy coldly.

“Jeremy, Meredith is not at fault. It’s all Madeline’s fault! And it’s been so long, so there’s nothing to investigate. Your and Meredith’s engagement has been witnessed by all of Glendale, so how could you say to cancel it just like that? Don’t say such words out of anger.”

As soon as Mrs. Whitman said that, Meredith quickly raised her teary eyes to look at Jeremy.

“Jeremy, I know I was wrong. Will you forgive me? Let’s live well in the future, okay?”

“I wasn’t joking with you,” Jeremy said with a cold voice.
