Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife chapter 1829

Carter thought he had a hearing problem, but Shirley did, in fact, say those words.

“This isn’t your child? Shirley, do you even know what you’re saying?” Carter asked with restrained anger.

Shirley remained indifferent as she smiled and responded, “Aren’t you forgetful at times, Carter? Earlier in the

study room, I had clearly said that the baby was just a bargaining chip in exchange for the anti-toxoid test reagent

formula. Just a bargaining chip. Do you understand?”

“You…”

For the first time in his life, Carter was tongue-tied because he was too furious.

While he was distracted, Shirley took the opportunity to grab the box from his hands

Having been jolted out of his daze, Carter found Shirley grasping the box firmly.

He found that ridiculous.

She would not even get a chance to touch it if he had no intention of giving it to her.

“Shirley, now that you’re here at the Gray Manor, don’t think about leaving. You can develop the anti- toxoid test

reagent if you want. You’ll find this laboratory the ideal place to work on it. Don’t even think about going anywhere

else except the Gray Manor.”

Carter demanded sternly.

Shirley’s eyebrows creased. “Are you putting me under house arrest?”

Carter bent down and got close to Shirley’s face.

He raised his eyebrows and tugged the corners of his lips.

“You’re now the mother of my child. Even if you go against my wishes again, the child in your womb is still the first

grandchild of the Gray family.”

Carter’s words drifted around Shirley’s ears and plunged straight into her heart, leaving her with a sharp pain.

There would be no mother of any child. There would be no grandchild either.

Adam had explained clearly that this child could not be born, and if he were, there would be birth defects.

Adam had not meant to frighten her, and Shirley too was fully aware of that.

This was her sin to bear; she had no right to blame anyone.

Cathy was chatting with Camille in the living room when Cathy saw Shirley entering, then Cathy immediately stood

up and approached Shirley.

She had intended to bring Shirley home, but Shirley interrupted her.

“Cathy, I have something to tell you. You’ll be heading home by yourself later.”

Cathy was momentarily taken aback. “You’re… not coming with me?”

Shirley smiled and shook her head. “There’s food and clothing here for me. I’ll even have people waiting on me.

Why would I want to leave?”

“…” Shirley’s words left Cathy speechless.

However, Cathy could sense that something was amiss from Shirley’s abrupt change in behavior.

Cathy pretended not to notice. “If you’d like to stay, then go ahead. I’ve nothing more to say to you.”

“You might not have anything to say to me, but I do.”

Shirley looked askance at Carter, who had been following her closely, then turned to face Cathy.

“I’ll see you out.”

Understanding Shirley’s meaning, Cathy immediately stepped forward to push Shirley’s wheelchair.

Camille glanced at Carter with concern. She watched Carter standing still as Shirley left the room, and Camille

decided to stay silent.

Once Cathy had pushed Shirley out of the entrance and ensured that nobody followed them, Cathy then spoke.

“Are you really going to stay here? Why?”

Shirley, in response to Cathy’s skepticism, explained in an unusually calm manner, “It makes sense for me to stay

here. Carter’s laboratory is perfectly equipped with all the resources I need, so staying here would allow me to

develop the anti- toxoid test reagent quickly.”
