Read Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [by Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1173 – Madeline could recognize
the voice. It was the same person who had been provoking her over the phone these days, the woman who said
that Lillian was Madeline’s mute daughter!
After being recognized, the lady seemed as if she had come well prepared. She curled her red lips and smirked.
“Eveline, I said we’ll soon meet each other. Aren’t you surprised?”
Madeline could not make out who the voice belonged to, but that evil smirk reminded her of someone.
“Are you there, Miss Montgomery?” The researcher’s curious voice was heard over the phone.
Madeline thought of taking off the lady’s sunglasses, but her thoughts were suddenly disrupted.
“I’m sorry. I’m still all ears,” Madeline quickly replied. However, the next time she raised her head, she realized the
lady was missing. There was only a special scent that smelled rather special.
Madeline knew that lady was trying to stir trouble on purpose and did not bother wasting another second at the

She focused all her attention on listening to what the researcher had to say. “Miss Montgomery, the results show
that the ingredients in the anti-toxoid test reagent are all harmless. However, there are two elements in it which
none of our researchers have seen before.”
“If these two elements are injected into the human body, will it have any deadly effects?”
“All of the elements are harmless,” replied the researcher in a confident tone.
Madeline quietly let out a sigh of relief.
“Thanks so much.” She expressed her gratitude and hung up the call. Then, she entered the elevator.
When she was almost approaching the entrance of the ward, Madeline saw Jeremy pacing back and forth with a
serious look on his face. She quickly ran over to him.
“Jeremy.”
Jeremy raised his eyes which were full of concern.
“What’s wrong, Jeremy? Did something happen to Lillian?” Madeline asked anxiously, sneaking a peek into the
ward.
“Lillian will be just fine, don’t worry.” Jeremy comforted.
However, when he touched Madeline’s hands, she noticed that his hands were icy cold. ‘It seems that he’s worried
too.’
After more than ten minutes, the doctor came out.
“Doctor, how’s my daughter doing?” Jeremy rushed to ask at the very first moment.
The doctor replied honestly, “The child’s blood pressure isn’t coming up. Maybe it’s because of the h********e. For
now, she’s in a stable condition. She’s awake now, so you guys can go and see her.”
Madeline and Jeremy’s eyes sparkled when they heard that Lillian was awake.
Jeremy held onto Madeline’s hand as they entered the ward together.
The little girl lying on the hospital bed opened her big eyes halfway. She appeared to still be in a daze. With an awful
expression, she looked at Jeremy and Madeline who were rushing to her.
“Lillian.” Madeline grasped the little girl’s hand, feeling heartbroken as she attempted to warm her daughter’s cold
hands.
Lillian looked at Madeline and blinked her eyes, looking tired. She seemed as if she wanted to call out to Madeline,
but after moving her mouth, no words came out.

The scene hurt Jeremy.
‘She’s such a beautiful girl, but because of me, she ended up like this. She was thrown into the pond by Lana, and
that left her traumatized, causing her to become mute.’
Jeremy never once regretted his last-minute decision at that time to add some slow-acting poison into Lana’s drink.
He felt there was a need to make such a cruel woman experience the feeling of being in h**l.
He would not be able to vent out his hatred if she were to just drop d**d so easily.
“Lillian, tell me if you’re not feeling well,” Madeline spoke in a gentle tone. She turned around and looked at the
man behind her. “Jeremy, come and talk to her.”
Jeremy composed himself, put on a gentle look, and strolled to the front of the bed. “Lillian.”
He spoke gently and reached out to her little hand. However, as soon as they came into contact, Lillian retreated
her hand as if she was in shock. She frowned and started crying.
Jeremy felt a chill deep down in his heart. His hand was still hovering in mid-air.
Lillian, feeling aggrieved, turned around and dived into Madeline’s arms. Her tears were like a broken pearl
necklace as drops fell to the floor one by one.
Madeline was puzzled by Lillian’s reaction as well. She quickly brought her into her arms.
“What’s the matter, Lillian? Don’t cry. Mommy and Daddy are right here.”
