Read Married by Mistake Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife [by Sixteenth Child] Chapter 1051 – Jeremy looked at her with
interest. “What is it?”
Lana stepped to the side, lit a cigarette, and started smoking. She thought for a moment before suddenly asking
Jeremy, “Jeremy, do you know of anyone else with considerable influence who secretly protects Eveline? Apart
from her parents, of course.”
Jeremy’s eyes changed instantly. “Why do you ask?”
“Because…” Lana spat out the smoke and continued, “Because there’s a mysterious man behind my brother. My
brother seems to be a little fearful of this man. He doesn’t allow me to provoke Eveline because that’s also what is
wanted of him by the man. So I’m curious about who this man is.”
Knowing this situation, Jeremy was really surprised.
Regardless of who this mysterious man was, he was helping Madeline.

This seemed to be a good thing.

While Jeremy was pondering this, he suddenly heard Lana reluctantly saying, “Jeremy, you saw Yorick’s attitude just
now as well. I’ve done so many things for him in the Stygian Johnson Gang for so many years, but he has been
raising his hand against his own sister because of that Eveline. Since he’s so heartless, he can’t blame me for being
ruthless.”
Jeremy glanced at Lana, then asked, “What are you planning to do?”
Lana touched her swollen cheek. “The Stygian Johnson Gang’s accounts have always been handled by me. You
know, most of the business conducted by the Stygian Johnson Gang should not be known by others. After the
money is obtained, it must be cleaned before it can be used with integrity.”
While she was saying this, she walked up to Jeremy with full of trust in her eyes. She said, “Jeremy, I’ve already
considered it. Let’s go and strike out by ourselves. In the future, you’ll be in charge of the external business while I
will be responsible for money laundering. You work outside and I work inside. Don’t you think we’ll be like husband
and wife like this?”
Lana’s eyes lit up, and she immediately wanted to lean on Jeremy.
Jeremy pretended to tidy up his clothes to avoid Lana. Then, he tentatively asked, “Is the ledger you mentioned a
record of all the accounting made by the Stygian Johnson Gang over the years? Will Yorick let you take care of such
an important thing?”
Hearing this, Lana appeared to be arrogant. “It’s exactly because I’m his sister that’s why they let me take care of
such an important ledger.”
Jeremy looked at Lana with a vague smile. “It turns out that you’re actually so capable. Looks like I’ve
underestimated you before.”
Lana smiled at Jeremy gently. “Honey, we have all the time in the future. You can get to know me slowly—hiss!”
Lana wanted to ask Jeremy for a kiss, but the corners of her mouth suddenly stung badly.
“Go back to the room and rest. I’m about to go out to have a talk about a deal. I’ll discuss it in detail with you when
I return.”
Lana was indeed exhausted. Madeline had pushed her into the swimming pool earlier and made her unable to lift
her head up. She even threw her into the swimming pool. The muscles all over her body were aching now.
After Jeremy left, he took out his mobile phone, typed in a few Arabic numbers, and sent them out. Then, he drove
around the main road a few times before finally entering a cafe with a few people.
A well-dressed man was sitting in the corner by the window. Jeremy walked over and sat down, saying coldly, “I’ve
obtained news regarding the ledger you had mentioned before. I request to perform the mission immediately. I
don’t want to waste time. You guys have no ways to guarantee the safety of my wife and daughter.”

The man sitting opposite him replied politely, “Jeremy, it’s a good thing that you’ve obtained news regarding the
ledger, but the foundation of the Stygian Johnson Gang is solid. They have great power in F Country. It’ll be better
for us not to rush into it.”
“My daughter was made mute by that psychotic woman. How can you have me continue pleasing that woman
calmly?”
The man smiled kindly. “Jeremy, we’ve all seen it. You handled it well.”
‘Handled it well?’
Jeremy found it ironic. Only he knew how much pain he was enduring.
He suddenly regretted his decision to join IBCI.
After a few seconds of silence, Jeremy calmly parted his lips. “There seems to be a person behind Yorick. Based on
my understanding of Lana’s words, Yorick seems to be very fearful of this person.”
The man paused when he heard the words, then said, “This man is our colleague.”
“Colleague?” Jeremy’s eyes narrowed. “Who’s this person?”
The person hesitated with difficulty before saying, “It’s not convenient to disclose his identity for the time being.
This is for the sake of your safety and the mission.”
Jeremy did not want to push them for the answer. He knew the rules as well, so he did not ask any more questions.
