Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman's Sinner Wife

Chapter 897

Read Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [by Sixteenth Child] Chapter 897 – Jeremy was no stranger to

being admired, but it was his first time meeting someone as open with her affections as Lana.

Not to mention that her going on her tiptoes to kiss him was evidently done for Madeline to see.

However, Jeremy had not let Lana touch him. Pushing her away, he stated coldly, “Leave me alone.”

He warned before turning to walk toward Madeline.

Madeline seemed to have knocked into a friend, so she did not see Lana trying to kiss Jeremy.

Jeremy let out a breath of relief.

He did not want Madeline to misunderstand anything.

Madeline’s conversation came to an end, and she turned around to see Jeremy approaching her with her purse and

a warm smile. “I’m suddenly craving Spanish food, Linnie. Let’s eat somewhere else.”

Madeline found his sudden change in decision weird.

Peering subtly at Lana who was not too far away, she reached out to link her arm with Jeremy’s. “Let’s go.”

After leaving the restaurant, Madeline asked Jeremy, “Did Lana say something? You couldn’t possibly have a sudden

craving for Spanish food, could you?”

Not wanting to upset Madeline, Jeremy gave a reasonable excuse. “She says that her business is legal, but she’s still

Yorick Johnson’s sister. I’d rather we try to reduce our contact with the Stygian Johnsons to as little as possible.”

Jeremy’s words made sense, so Madeline left it at that.

That night, Madeline suddenly received a call from Lana while she was doing crafts with the children.

Lana spoke of her desire to partner with Madeline in perfume manufacturing but was rejected softly by Madeline as

she remembered the things Jeremy had said to her in the day.

Lana did not say much and hung up the phone.

Soon after, Jeremy’s phone rang.

Seeing as the man was cutting fruits in the kitchen, Madeline answered the call for him. “Hello, who’s this?” she

asked, but the other party seemed to have hung up the moment they heard her voice.

With the phone in her hand, Madeline looked at it and saw that the unknown number was the one Lana had used to

call her.

Jeremy came over with a platter of fruits, and Madeline told him, “Lana called you just now.”

Jeremy’s hands shook slightly. “Maybe it’s about the partnership. I’ll call back and reject her.”

“Okay.” Madeline handed him his phone.

The call was connected and she heard Jeremy rejecting Lana coldly and firmly.

Madeline thought that it was the last of it, but Lana came to look for them at the company a few days later.

“I really want to partner with you, Mrs. Whitman.” Lana’s tone was friendly while her smile was kind.

“I wouldn’t mind referencing you to a suitable brand, Miss Johnson, but we will not partner with you.” Jeremy

rejected coldly before leaving for the office with Madeline’s hand in his.

Lana quirked her red lips as she admired Jeremy’s retreating figure. The desire to dominate grew in her eyes.

After the morning meeting, Madeline went to the scent room to dabble with the perfume while Jeremy returned to

work in the office.

A short moment later, the receptionist knocked on the office’s glass door and relayed that someone had sent a pot

of flowers for him.

Jeremy looked up to realize that it was a pot of Queen of the Night.

Jeremy was wondering who had gifted him the flowers when his phone rang.
