Chapter 1905
Before Shirley could finish speaking, she stopped.
Madeline heard footsteps approaching her from behind, and the temperature of Shirley’s hand that was holding her plummeted as if she was frightened.
Madeline, realizing something was off, so she turned her head to take a look.
Shirley’s hand that was holding Madeline’s hand fell slowly, and she murmured inaudibly. In the end, she did not say the final words. “You…”
Madeline could vaguely hear Shirley mumbling a word, but she could not hear it clearly.
Madeline turned around and saw Carter who had suddenly appeared behind her, and her pulled herself together.
When Carter saw Madeline, he smiled faintly at her.
He walked carefreely to Madeline and looked at Shirley who stared at him with a conflicted look, then he opened his mouth.
“Mrs. Whitman, are you so free to visit the enemy who had poisoned and tormented your and your husband?”
Carter sounded very sarcastic. It was obvious he was provoking her.
Madeline calmly looked at Carter, who was smirking arrogantly, then calmly said, “Carter, do you really think my husband and I don’t know anything?”
“What do you mean?” Carter frowned.
Madeline boldly met Carter’s probing and questioning eyes.
“Shirley did everything for you, including developing the poison. It was all your idea. She had merely been following your orders the whole time. ” All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
Madeline said and looked at Shirley behind her.
“At most, she had been a fool blinded by love. Her pure heart was deceived by the person she loved and your sweet talk.”
Carter laughed when he heard what Madeline said.
He looked at Madeline, his smile brimming with mockery.
“Eveline, do you see your previous self in Shirley?” “Just spit it out,” Madeline said decisively.
Carter looked at Madeline and said with a smile, “ Back then, you, too, were blinded by love like a fool. You loved Jeremy with all your heart and then he severely hurt you. Yet, you still forgave him like a fool.”
Madeline did not want to think about her painful past when Carter brought it up.
She looked at Carter, and when she was about to retort, Carter took two steps toward her, and his eyes were right in front of her eyes.
“Eveline, look into my eyes. Don’t try to find excuses for Jeremy. You were foolish back then. Jeremy didn’t love you. He was so ruthless because he didn’t love you. While he kept on letting you down, he was happily holding another woman.”
Madeline knew Carter was saying that on purpose, but she felt that her emotions were getting affected unconsciously, and she felt an intense pain in her heart.
It was during this moment of daze and pain, Madeline heard Shirley’s voice behind her.
“Don’t look! Don’t look into his eyes, Eveline! He’s hypnotizing you!’
As Shirley said that, she used all her might to pull Madeline’s wrist.
Madeline came back to her senses immediately. Her heart, which was beating painfully a second ago, instantly returned to normal.
