He fed Shirley another bite and leisurely continued speaking.
“When the hallucinogen started to affect Jeremy’s consciousness, I had someone take him to the room in which the maid was already waiting. Just like Jeremy, she was also exposed to the hallucinogen without her realizing.”
After hearing this, everything became clear to Shirley.
“You confused them both, making them think that they had intimate contact with each other.”
Shirley concluded with certainty, and her eyes were looking at Carter with more disappointment.
“Carter, you’re irredeemable.” Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
Carter paused as he was scooping the food. “I’m irredeemable?”
He chuckled lightly. “You’re the one who’s crazy.”
“I’m crazy?”
“If you weren’t crazy, why would you help Jeremy? I f you weren’t crazy, why would you help Eveline? Have you really forgotten how our child died?”
Carter’s expression suddenly darkened.
“Don’t tell me that since you’re the one who developed the test reagent, you only have yourself to blame. It was Jeremy’s fault! He injected the
APX69 anti-toxoid test reagent into your body. That’s why our child couldn’t be born. You directly caused this tragedy! ”
Carter immediately became emotional at the mention of the child.
His gaze was suddenly covered in darkness as if the violent winds of a raging storm were upon them.
Shirley calmly looked at the angry Carter, and then her eyes gradually turned cool and distant.
“Heh, hehe.” Shirley laughed. “You still couldn’t understand how the child died.”
When Shirley said this, emotions flashed abruptly in Carter’s eyes. “What are you trying to say?”
Shirley stared at Carter coldly from the corner of her eyes. “Listen, Carter. I chose to fall from the stairs because I hate you and I don’t want to have anything to do with you anymore.”
Shirley’s eyes gradually turned wet and red as she spoke, and then warm tears fell from her eyes.
“Carter, do you think that I couldn’t have saved this child with my ability? Of course, I could have, but I didn’t want to. Because the child was yours, I don’t want it. Do you understand?”
Upon hearing Shirley’s answer, Carter’s eyes flickered sharply.
He stared dazedly at Shirley who had said this, and upon seeing the tears in her eyes, his vision gradually became blurred.
“ I won’t believe it.” After a long while, Carter said this in a trembling voice.
He denied but his eyes were firm.
“Shirley, I trust that you genuinely despise me and don’t want to see me again, but I will not believe that you could give up on your flesh and blood unless you already know that the child won’t come into this world. Don’t think I’ll forgive Jeremy because of this. He ruined my family, so I’ll ruin his family in turn.”
Bang!
After he said that, Carter slammed the cutlery on the nightstand and turned to leave in rancor.
Shirley wanted to stop him, but after moving her lips, she did not know what to say.
In truth, Carter understood her very well, but what use did it have?
Judging from this current situation, they were destined to walk toward tragedy, and there would be no way to turn back anymore.
After going downstairs, Carter, filled with rage, grabbed the phone to call Fabian.
He knew Fabian had blocked his number, so Carter changed his number.
Soon after, Fabian answered the call.
