Read Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [by Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1129 – Madeline felt like she was
dreaming while caught in a drowsy haze. Someone kept calling out to her in her dream.
“Eveline, Eveline, wake up.”
The gentle yet worried voice of a man rang out in her ears continuously.
Eveline frowned and gradually opened her eyes. Ryan’s face slowly came into view amidst her blurred vision.
“Eveline, are you awake?” he asked.
“Ryan?”
“It’s me,” Ryan said as he looked at her in worry. “Are you alright?” he asked.
Alright?
Clarity returned to her thoughts at once. She recalled what happened before she fainted just now. She then realized
that she was lying on the bed.
She sat up at once, the covers sliding down from her shoulders. She realized in shock that her clothes had been

This entire situation made her feel oddly weirded out.
She pulled up the covers and wrapped them around herself immediately.
“How did this happen?” she asked in confusion. She had no idea what just happened. Upon catching sight of the
clothes on the floor, she immediately bent down to pick them up.
Ryan turned over at once. “Wear your clothes first,” he told her.
Madeline did not say anything. She put on her clothes hurriedly after Ryan limped away.
She could not remember what happened in between at all.
She only remembered bringing daily necessities over for Ryan. After she entered the room, she saw him fast asleep
and proceeded to leave. However, she lost consciousness just as she was about to leave.
She put on her clothes and looked at the bed. A sense of heaviness weighed on her mind.
A thought arose in her mind, but she did not dare to dwell on it.
Ryan was seated on the sofa in the living room. He tried to stand up when he saw that Madeline was dressed, but
he could not do so due to his leg injury.
“Sit down,” Madeline said. She looked at him and cut straight to the point, asking, “Ryan, what happened? Why was
I on the bed?” she asked.
Ryan looked at her serious expression, his eyes glinting apologetically. “Eveline, I think something happened
between us,” he said.
“…”
Ryan’s words came upon her like a bucket of cold water. The revelation shocked her from head to toe.
“What… What did you say?” she asked in disbelief.
Ryan frowned and continued speaking, “Before you came over, I heard someone knocking on the door. I thought it
was you, but I didn’t see anyone after opening the door. I went back in and fell asleep drowsily. After I woke up, you
were beside me and…”
He paused. The look in his eyes turned heavier. “And we weren’t dressed properly,” he added.
“…”
A chilling sensation crept up Madeline’s spine.
Just as she was about to deny the entire situation, her phone rang.
That customized ringtone belonged to Jeremy’s number.
She picked up Jeremy’s phone call at once without hesitation. His husky, low voice resonated from the phone. “Why
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmdidn’t you pick up my call just now?” he asked in a gentle voice.
Just now?
Jeremy must have looked for her while she was unconscious just now.
She did not want to lie to Jeremy, but she had no other choice right now.
“I was busy just now, so I didn’t notice your call. Jeremy, did anything come up?” she asked.
Jeremy did not suspect her at all. He replied in a gentle voice, “I’m starting to miss you. When are you coming
back?”
A burst of sweetness erupted in Madeline’s heart. “I’m coming back soon,” she told him. Upon the thought of him
waiting for her to return home, a sense of guilt arose in her heart. “Jeremy, I miss you a lot too,” she said.
Madeline heard his low chuckle from the other end of the phone. Jeremy seemed to be in a rather good mood.
However, the current situation made her feel terrible.
She hung up the call. Looking at Ryan, who was seated on the sofa with an annoyed look on his face, she felt upset
as well.
“I’m going back. Rest well,” she told him.
Madeline then grabbed her handbag and turned around to leave.
