Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife

Shirley sounded very decisive.
Carter seemed to be stumped for words for a while. Then, he tugged the corners of his lips.
“Shirley, do you know what you’re saying?”
“I do. I know what I said,” Shirley answered slowly without even lifting her beautiful eyes. “I’ve thought it through, and I won’t
let you manipulate me like an idiot. We were just using each other anyway, Mr. Gray. You used me to reach your goals, and to be
honest, I was also just using you.”
When Carter heard this answer, he felt as if he had heard a huge joke.
“You were using me?” He scoffed and asked, “What were you using me for?”
“You still can’t tell what I was using you for?” Shirley asked. The corner of her red lip that looked slightly pale was lifted in a
disdainful smile.
“The first time I met you, I knew you could give me a life of luxury and the best education.
“I was just pretending to be pitiful to gain pity from you and Camille. I wanted you guys to keep me in Gray Manor, I wanted to
make you reluctant to have me leave. I wanted you to plead with camille yourself so that I could stay to become your playmate
and study buddy.”
“Hmph. ” As Shirley said that, she chuckled while feeling pleased with herself. “Carter, I’m very good at acting, right? You must
have thought that I was so in love with you and I couldn’t live without you so I would be willing to do anything for you, right?
You’re wrong. We were just using each other. I was only pretending when I was with you, and now, this is the true colors of
Shirley Brown.”
After hearing what Shirley said, Carter did not have the previous look of anger on his face anymore.
He looked at Shirley who had never once looked at him since he entered and eventually asked after a long while, “Are you sure
you’re telling the truth?”
“Of course, ” Shirley answered decisively. The corners of her beautiful eyes were slightly lifted as she scanned Carter’s face
coldly.

“ If not, why do you think I stopped contacting you for so long and even came back to live here? You should see now that I’ve
sorted things out with my brother. I’m bored of the game between you and me, so that’s why I didn’t bother contacting you.”
Carter thought his heart was strong and it was able to conquer everything. However, when Shirley’s decisive words pierced his
eardrums, he felt as if an invisible dagger was piercing through where his heart was.
This feeling reminded him of when Shirley had left without telling him.
Back then, she had left so decisively.
Now that he thought about it, she really did not love him and that was why she could cruelly leave without any reluctance.
Carter’s expression and gaze froze.
“Shirley, you’re something else, ” he mocked with a light chuckle. “You’d better pray that I won’t see you again. If not, I’ll make
you pay for using me. ”
After he warned her, his icy gaze scanned Shirley’s disdainful face.
When he turned around and saw Adam glaring at him, he gave him the same warning.
“It’s best if you don’t meddle in Jeremy Whitman’s business. If not, both of you will suffer the consequences.”
After Carter said that, he strode away. When he walked past Adam, it seemed that he used all of his might to bump into Adam’s
shoulder.
Adam was caught off guard and crashed into the doorframe after stumbling backward.
“Adam.” Cathy quickly ran to Adam. When she saw the wounds on his face, she knew that Adam had put his life on the line to
fight with Carter to stop him. However, an elegant gentleman like Adam would never be able to defeat a man who had been
trained and knew how to fight.
“Adam, are you okay? Your wounds... I should treat your wounds for you.” Cathy looked at Adam in concern.
“I’m fine. Don’t worry about me. ” Adam comforted Cathy. When he was about to say something to Shirley, he suddenly heard a
muffled thud coming from the side of the bed.
