Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife

“How... to be a passable mother...”
Madeline’s question seemed to stumped Eloise.
Eloise stared straight at Madeline’s tearful face. As she looked at Madeline, Eloise suddenly started to shake her head
repeatedly; her expression also gradually changed.
“I am not a passable mother. I’m not. I’ve mistaken a bad woman as my precious daughter, and I’ve caused my Eveline to be
vilified and tormented. I’m not a passable mother. I am not worthy to be a mother. I’m not worthy. Not worthy...”
Eloise rejected herself, blaming herself with fierce intensity.
Madeline only then realized that the question she had asked during her emotional breakdown had triggered Eloise.
She rushed to hold Eloise’s shoulders to comfort her. “Mom, there’s no need to get worked up.
You’re a good mother. You are a passable mother in Eveline’s heart.”
“No, I’m not a good mother, that’s why Eveline hates me. She hates me. She doesn’t want me as her mother, and she doesn’t
want Sean as a father as well. Sean and I are not worthy to be Eveline’s parents. Ah...”
Eloise yelled as she broke down and suddenly pushed Madeline away as she ran out the main entrance.
“Mom!”
Eveline hurriedly chased after her.
However, she turned back after taking two steps. Coincidentally, a maid was passing by, and Madeline pointed at Pudding who
was chuckling at himself in a silly manner. “Watch Pudding for me.
I’ll be back soon! You must keep a close eye on him! ”
When the maid saw Madeline’s hurried look, she earnestly nodded. “I will watch him closely. Don’t worry, Ma’am.”
“Pudding, listen to her. I’ll be back soon!” Madeline said to her confused son, then dashed in the direction in which Eloise had
run toward. As Madeline ran, she called out to Eloise, “Mom!”
However, it did not seem that Eloise heard

Madeline’s call. If she did, she might not know that Madeline was calling her.
Eloise ran straight on, passing a few streets.
Due to her nervous breakdown, she ignored the traffic lights. Quite a few cars had to brake urgently just to avoid her.
Madeline’s heart leaped when she saw this.
She blamed herself. How could she show such negative emotions to Eloise?
Now, Eloise was triggered into recalling the unhappy, painful memories, and Madeline was not faultless in this.
Eloise continued running a few red lights as she crossed the streets. Madeline, who was chasing behind her, apologized to the
drivers, who were cursing at Eloise, as she ran.
Jeremy was on the way home when he noticed that i t was slightly congested up ahead on the road.
Oblivious to what had transpired, he subconsciously lifted his eyes and saw Madeline, a hurried look on her face, standing in the
road apologizing to everyone.
“Linnie?”
Jeremy found this odd, so he surveyed his surroundings and, with a fair bit of difficulty,
parked the car by the roadside, surrounded by cars.
He urgently called Madeline. While the call went through, the person who picked up the phone was Karen, who sounded quite
frantic.
“The maid said that Eveline ran out looking hurried. Eloise is gone too. I don’t know what happened as well.”
Even though Jeremy did not know what exactly had happened, after listening to Karen, he could roughly surmise that Madeline
was searching for Eloise.
When he saw that the cars ahead of him were moving, Jeremy paid close attention to the direction in which Madeline had run
while he turned the steering wheel, quickly and decisively weaved through the cars on the bustling street, then parked his car by
the roadside without obstructing the traffic. He then swiftly ran in Madeline’s direction.

Madeline had never known that Eloise could run with such speed. The trigger might have brought out her latent potential.
Madeline’s only thought was to catch up with Eloise who was recklessly running, causing Madeline to completely miss the rock
under her foot.
When she finally noticed it and tried avoiding it, she had already stepped on it.
Madeline fell to the ground. She tried standing back up but realized that there was a debilitating pain in her right ankle. Her
bones hurt with every movement; it seemed that her ankle was twisted.
She looked around her and felt lucky that this was not the busy street from earlier. Otherwise, she would have been hit by a car.
Eloise heard Madeline yelping in pain, and she abruptly stopped running.
She turned and saw Madeline sitting in the middle of the road.
