Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife chapter 1827
The slap resounded loud and clear.
Further, she had deliberately hit the side of Shirley’s injured face.
The scene had unfolded too suddenly. Camille and Cathy had not expected it, while Ada’s mother was satisfied with
her “feat,” and Ada was secretly delighted.
However, Ada could only enjoy the moment briefly before she similarly received a hard slap across her right cheek.
“Ouch!” Ada shouted in pain as Carter slapped Ada so hard that she could barely stand up. She also tasted the
blood trickling from the corners of her mouth.
Ada and her mother froze, eyes widened. They had not expected Carter to make such a move.

The burning pain on her cheek seemed to have immediately subsided. Was Carter trying to protect her?
“How dare you slap my daughter, Carter?!” Ada’s mother demanded anxiously.
Carter appeared impassive, but his gaze was icy. “I hit your daughter because you slapped my woman. It’s only
fair.”
“ .. Wh… what? Did you just call this stinky beggar your woman?” Ada’s mother could not believe her ears.
Shirley too was astonished. She stared at the man who had a cold expression on his face. She briefly wondered if
she was dreaming.
He seemed so real in this dream as if he could truly belong to her.
Camille was also surprised by Carter’s heartfelt words.
“Would you believe that I could send your entire family to beg on the streets of St. Piaf if you call her a stinky
beggar one more time?” Carter warned in a chilling tone.
He glared at Ada as her face paled.
“You’d better watch out. Whatever you did to her, I’ll do to you as well.”
“ ….” Ada trembled in fear. When Ada thought about all the things she had done to Shirley, and when Ada took
another look at Shirley’s current condition, Ada dared not imagine that one day, she too would look like Shirley.
“Carter, don’t threaten my daughter! ” Ada’s mother commanded. She then spoke in a similarly threatening tone.
“Don’t forget. If you wish to inherit St Piaf’s right of succession, you’ll have to depend on our family. If you mistreat
Ada, you can bid goodbye to that right.”
Carter did not react to the warning from Ada’s mother; he continued to fix his gaze on Ada, whose eyes squinted
and shoulders narrowed.

“….” Although Ada had not dared to look directly at Carter, she knew he was speaking to her.
As for Carter, he turned around as soon as he finished speaking and pushed Shirley’s wheelchair forward.
Shirley, momentarily stunned, took a while to react. “Carter, where are you taking me?”
“Didn’t you want the ingredients for the anti-toxoid test reagent? I’ll give it to you.” Carter’s cold voice returned.
She could no longer sense the warmth he had shown her a minute ago.
Cathy had intended to follow them, but after some thought, she decided against it.
“Ada, don’t be upset or frightened. You’re the daughter-in-law of the Gray family now. You’re also the honorable
Viscountess. Shirley is merely seeking death if she truly dares to challenge your position,” Ada’s mother assured
her, then lifted her eyes to meet Camille.
“Am I right, Camille?”
“…” Camille had always disliked Ada’s mother for her arrogant attitude. Over the past few days, Camille had shown
Ada’s mother some respect for the sake of the marriage. However, Ada’s mother was now taking advantage of
Camille, so Camille had no intention of backing down.
