Read Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [by Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1277 – Madeline saw Ryan’s eyes
gleaming cunningly.
She did not wish to look at him any longer and coldly turned away.
“You don’t have to be afraid of me. I won’t harm you, but I’ll never let you return to Jeremy,” Ryan said scornfully
with his eyes looking as sharp as a hawk’s.
“I’m guessing that right now, you must long to spend more time with your parents. I have things to attend to, so
you’ll stay here.” Ryan twirled Madeline’s long hair with his fingers as he leaned nearer to her flirtatiously.
Madeline turned away from him. She wanted to take a step back, but Ryan grabbed her waist. “The things you’re
not supposed to say, you’d better don’t tell your parents. You don’t wish to lose your family for good, right?”
His comment was obviously trying to threaten her.
Madeline tightened her lips. She did not speak a word and neither did she look at Ryan.

attracts me.” Ryan’s gentle gaze was fixed on Madeline’s elegant face. Then, he let go of her.
“I’ll come back to pick you up once I’ve settled my issues,” Ryan said, then spun around and headed to the door.
Madeline stood there without moving and saw Ryan leaving as he pleased. The sight made her clench her fists hard.
‘Ryan, I don’t believe that you, a man who has been charged with m****r, will be able to walk around so freely.’
“Eveline.” She heard Sean’s voice coming from the window.
Madeline came back to her senses and loosened her grip before returning to the house with a smile.
Sean looked around at the doorway. “Has Mr. Jones left?”
“Yup.” Madeline nodded. “Dad, how long have you and Mom been staying here?”
“Since the day after the fire, Mr. Jones came to get us and settled us here.” Sean recalled the incident. “He even
reminded us not to leave the house too often to prevent being spotted by the Stygian Johnson Gang.”
Madeline heard of the mention of Stygian Johnson Gang again.
Sean felt remorseful as he sighed, blaming himself. “Eveline, I should’ve listened to your words and not investigate
the Stygian Johnson Gang. If it wasn’t for me acting rashly and checking on Lana, I wouldn’t have invited trouble to
myself. I have to bear some responsibility for your mom ending up like this.”
“It doesn’t have anything to do with you, Dad. The ones who are at fault are those cunning people who used
underhanded methods.”
At that moment, Eloise coincidentally brought out the tea she prepared.
Eloise was thrilled when she saw Madeline returning. She handed the tea to Madeline, saying, “This is for you. Drink
up.”
Madeline felt a pinch in her heart and took the cup. “Thanks, Mom.”
“Why are you calling me ‘Mom’ again? I only have one precious daughter and her name is Eveline. It’s not you.”
Eloise denied with an earnest expression.
Madeline held onto the lukewarm cup. Her heart was feeling extremely chilly as if it was being engulfed by a

She tasted the biscuits prepared by Eloise and drank the tea. Her tears were on the brink of flowing out, but she
held them back again and again.
…
The streets were illuminated by the evening sunlight.
Jeremy was still at the scene where he heard Madeline’s shout. He was pacing back and forth while searching, but it
ended up fruitless.
Nonetheless, he was positive that Madeline had appeared here.
He would never mistake that shout of ‘Jeremy’.
“Linnie, I know you’re nearby.” Jeremy was very confident of it.
The street lamps lit up. The halo of the sunset shone on his handsome face, but it was unable to shine through the
haziness brewing within his orbs.
