Read Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [by Sixteenth Child] Chapter 686 – At Whitman Manor.
In the end, Jeremy made the police report and the cops showed up immediately to start the investigation. Coupled
with the confession given by the old master after he was conscious, the cops were confident that those two robbers
had already been planning it for a long time.
The cops came to Madeline to reaffirm the event that was going to take place that night and Madeline nodded in
agreement.
Jeremy heard Madeline’s answer from behind and spun around to face her. “Don’t go, Linnie.”
Even though he was unsure who the people who had kidnapped Karen were, he still found it weird that the
kidnappers demanded only Madeline be present to hand over the ransom.
Madeline lowered her gaze to face him and said, “Don’t you think that those who kidnapped your mom are also
holding a grudge against me?”

“That’s one possibility, so I can’t have you risk your life,” said Jeremy, determined.
Following his senses, he reached out to Madeline’s hand. “I can’t risk having you meet with any more accidents,
Linnie.”
“I’ll only be in trouble if I don’t identify the criminals behind this.” Madeline was determined as well. “I must go. It’s
not to rescue your mom but to protect myself.”
Then, she released Jeremy’s hand and sauntered to the cops who were getting the things ready.
Jeremy felt the emptiness in his palm and also felt his heart sink.
He knew that Madeline agreed to hand in the cash all just so she could save Karen.
That night, with a bag full of cash, Madeline headed out to the designated destination.
There was a bracelet equipped with GPS on her wrist. It was specifically made by Jackson for her. She also brought
along some mini-sized weapons for defense.
The police force was also keeping track of Madeline’s location.
Madeline drove her car to the destination and carried the bag full of cash to a deserted area.
Looking ahead, there were only trees in her field of vision and not a single person was present.
The whistling of the wind and the sound of the branches swaying was creepy.
Suddenly, Madeline heard another car driving into the scene.
The same van that showed up at the entrance earlier in the daytime appeared before Madeline at lightning speed.
A man came down while holding a dagger and threatened Madeline to hand over the bag of cash. He placed the
dagger at her neck, beckoning her to enter the car.
This was in line with what she had planned as she wanted to intrude into the base of the criminals.
Jeremy was waiting anxiously in the villa. He could not calm himself when he heard from the computer that the
kidnappers were asking Madeline to enter the car.
Winston halted Jeremy who was attempting to get out of the house. “Where do you think you’re going, Jeremy?”
“Linnie will be in danger. They’re obviously targeting her!” Jeremy then turned around and muttered, “I can’t let her
be alone. I can’t let anything happen to her…”
“Jeremy!”
Just when Winston was trying to stop Jeremy, they suddenly heard a police officer who was keeping track of the
situation saying, “The line has been cut off. We can’t track Eveline’s location.”
Jeremy quickly turned his head when he heard the news. “Where’s the last location detected?”
“Near the east side of the city. There are only old buildings waiting to be demolished there. There are no more

Jeremy turned to face Winston. “Bring me there, quick! I can’t afford to let anything happen to Linnie.”
Seeing Jeremy all determined and worried, Winston no longer hesitated. After all, besides Madeline, they had to
save Karen as well.
…
Karen was famished for an entire day. Finally, Yvonne threw cold bread to Karen like she was giving food to the
beggars.
Karen clenched her teeth, not willing to eat it.
“Wow, I didn’t expect you to have some backbone.” Yvonne snorted. She looked at the time. “It’s almost half an
hour since they left. Why aren’t they back yet? That means Madeline is not planning to bring the cash here to save
you. Just see for yourself! She’s not willing to come here to save you. She really wants you to be d**d!”
Karen was horrified and gritted her teeth in dissatisfaction. “Madeline, you won’t even come and hand over the
ransom. You—”
Just when she was complaining in dissatisfaction, the sealed door suddenly flung open. Karen lifted her head and
was shocked at the sight.
