Chapter 468
I held the box of medicine tightly in my hand and looked at Shelton. "I can't marry you before Patrick comes back, but I need Glenn to live. If something bad happens to Glenn, I'll die with him."
"Oh." Shelton looked up at me. "If you don't want to get married, it's okay. Then you can be pregnant with my child first."
"In this way, it doesn't matter when Patrick comes back." He looked at me with a bit of firmness in his expression. "After all, you are a mother who loves your child so much. No matter who is its father, I think you will love it as well."
Shelton was truly a sinister and terrifying man.
He used this sweet but poisonous words to hit the nail on the head.
Yes, he was right.
I didn't believe that any mother would hurt her own child...
Seeing that I was speechless, Shelton waved at me and said, "I'll give you two weeks. If you think it over, come to me."
I took the medicine and left without hesitation.
When I got in the car, I opened the medicine box, and there were three tablets inside.
"What is the course of this medicine?"
When I was about to call Shelton and ask him how should Glenn eat it, my phone rang first.
It was Shelton. I answered the phone and he said, "This medicine can only be used for one pill at a time. The interval between each pill must be 24 hours. It can't be more or less."

I see.
I nodded.
I thought he was just telling me how to take the medicine.
But as soon as I finished, he said, "This medicine is made according to the weight of Glenn, so he must eat all the pills. If you want to take one to study, I don't care. But if there is anything wrong with Glenn, don't come to me again."
When I heard this, I was frightened.
In fact, I didn't expect to take the medicine to find someone for research, but he thought of it first.
I held the phone tightly in my hand. Before I could say anything, he hung up.
When I returned home, Ryan and Jessica were sitting downstairs. Lisa and Roger were standing at the door of Glenn's room upstairs.
When Lisa saw me, she whispered, "He's asleep."
I walked over, took out the medicine in my hand, and said, "Shelton gave me this. He said that it could keep Glenn safe for two weeks."
Lisa gnashed her teeth in anger and asked, "What do you mean by 'two weeks'? What about two weeks later?"
"Two weeks later..." I lowered my head and said guiltily, "I'll get back to Shelton."
At the side, Roger sneered. "Get back to him two weeks later? I don't know about others, but I know Shelton is scheming. How can he help you for nothing!?"
After hearing his words, Lisa realized and ask, "Right! Did he ask for something?"
I didn't have the mood to answer these questions. I pushed the door open with the medicine and went in. "Let Glenn take the pills first."
When I was about to go in, Lisa grabbed my arm, looked at me and asked, "Are you sure this medicine is okay?"
I've thought about this problem, too.
However, no matter how I doubt about it, Shelton could not do such a thankless thing. "I'm sure."
I said firmly.
Upon hearing my words, Lisa did not try to stop
me.
I woke Glenn up, fed him the pills, and then took a note of the time.
After taking the medicine, Glenn went back to sleep.
In the past few days, his fever was so high that he was very weak.
As soon as I came out, Lisa grabbed me and asked, "Did Shelton ask for something?"
By the side, Roger also stared at me. "What did he say? Tell us so that we can help you find a solution."
Looking at the two medicines left in my hand, I sighed. "He asked me to marry him."
"... I knew he wouldn't give up!" Lisa stamped her foot and said, "Is he out of his mind? Why does he love to steal things from someone else so much?"
I lowered my head and recalled Shelton's words.
"Have he seen me before?"
"Or, have I seen him before?" I murmured in my mind.
I didn't recall anything at all.
But that was obviously what he meant today.
My heart was in a mess.
At the side, Roger suddenly slapped his thigh and grabbed the medicine from my hand. I was shocked first. He held up the medicine and said, "Let's do a research of this. Figure out its composition, and then make the same medicine, Okay?"
"Great!" Lisa was glad to hear that. "Let's do it. Why didn't I think of this solution!"
I looked at them and sighed. "Shelton said that these medicines are made according to the weight of Glenn. If they are a little less, they may not have any effect."
My words seemed to have poured cold water on them.
Their enthusiasm was extinguished in an instant.
I took back the medicine from Roger's hand and said, "And this medicine can only temporarily relieve Glenn's disease, but can't cure him. He doesn't give me the real cure."
Shelton was really a wily man. It seemed that he could read our thoughts.
Then, he forced me into a dead end. Left me no choice but to go to him.
Lisa stared at the medicine in my hand and said, "What if Shelton was lying to you? Maybe it doesn't matter even if we take the medicine for study. Maybe it'll be fine if Glenn take less."
"It's better than being controlled by him like this, right?"
After hearing Lisa's words, there was a glimmer of hope in my heart.
I thought she's right.
The ingredients of the medicine should be the same. If we only took a little bit to do the research, there should be no problem.
But who could we looking for?
I looked up at them and said, "Patrick introduced me to a doctor named Calen before, but she hasn't been in China recently. In this respect, I really don't know who I should trust."
Lisa also had no clue.
We both looked at Roger. Roger clasped his hands and his face showed a proud expression. "Since he is my god son, I will try my best to help him. I have a friend who has graduated as a Doctor of pharmacy. Now he has his own pharmaceutical company. Let's go find him."
"Is he reliable? Could he be Shelton's men as well?" I asked.
Now I was worried.
I was not worried about other fields, but in this medical science and pharmacy field, I would suspect that anyone has a relationship with
Shelton.
Roger shook his head. "Of course not. As my friend, he will not want to associate with people like Shelton."
I couldn't believe everything Roger said, but now we didn't have friends in this area, so we could only rely on him.
I went down to look for Lacy and Janice, and told them to keep an eye on Glenn all the time.
Then I followed Roger to find his friends.
When we were in the car, Roger called first to confirm that the man was in the office, and then we went to there.
We drove for nearly two hours before got there. At first, we walked on a desolate road in the suburbs. Later, we finally turned into a yard and parked in front of a eighth or ninth floors building in the yard.
Getting out of the car, I looked around and said with some suspicion, "Here?"
