Chapter 1656

Author: Sixteenth Child
“Help me?”

“No, not help,” Shirley quickly corrected herself, “I’ll do my part. Don’t worry.”

Carter then nodded his head slightly, satisfied, and observed the flux of emotions on Shirley’s face before slowly getting up. His tall and lean figure walked past Shirley with an air of elegance and nobility. Then, he stopped.

Shirley stood up quickly, only seeing Carter’s back.

“After this task is done, I might consider letting you formally become my wife,” Carter murmured coldly.

After saying that, he sauntered toward the door.

Shirley’s red lips parted slightly from shock, unable to return to her senses for a moment.

Dazed, she stared at Carter’s back as he walked further away. The contour of his body left a clear and memorable mark in her eyes.

Even if it was just a formality, and even if he was just tossing her a fake but beautiful lie, she would still gladly endure the hardship.

“I will definitely get this done!”

Shirley solemnly promised at Carter’s back.

    Jeremy’s heart felt like it tightened similarly after hearing Madeline’s answer.Without any hesitation, he held Madeline in a bridal carry. He hailed a cab by the roadside and went to the nearest hospital.Jeremy ran until he reached the emergency room door. Once the red light had lit up, he could not do anything but linger in the empty corridor, feeling restless.He knew that Madeline did not have any heart issues, so how did it get so painful so suddenly?‘Was it because we were running?’‘I shouldn't have dragged Linnie into running around like that.’‘I shouldn’t.’Jeremy started beating himself up harshly. The door of the emergency room opened suddenly, and a young nurse walked out hurriedly.Jeremy wanted to halt the nurse to ask about Madeline’s condition, but he was worried about interfering with her work.Barely a moment after the nurse had walked away, two professional-looking middle-aged doctors, wearing serious expressions, came over and entered the emergency ro

    The doctor nodded and handed the reports to Madeline. “Miss Montgomery, the circumstances of your heart attack last night were very strange. We ran some tests for you, and we did not find any heart-related diseases. Therefore, the pain you felt was not attributed to heart diseases.”Madeline was not sure if she understood. “Um, doctor, why was my heart hurting then? Plus, I felt that I could barely breathe toward the end.”The doctor frowned in puzzlement as he explained, “To be honest, Miss Montgomery, we don’t know what’s wrong either. Based on the report, there’s nothing wrong with your body. The only strange thing was your blood test.”“Blood test?”“That’s right. There’s an unknown component in your blood, and the hospital equipment couldn’t analyze it. I’d surmise that this unknown component to be the cause of your heartache and breathing difficulties last night.”The doctor’s explanation sounded clear, but Madeline felt as if she had fallen into an unknown terror.For so

    Jeremy picked up all the torn papers, but he noticed that the damage was extensive, requiring more time to piece the fragments together.He could only resort to wrapping the pieces in a handkerchief. Then, he returned to Madeline’s side, pretending nothing had happened after he went to the restroom.“Jeremy, are you okay? Did you catch a cold?” Madeline asked, uneasy, as she grabbed Jeremy’s hand.Jeremy held Madeline’s hand and intertwined his fingers with hers.“I still intend to take good care of you for the rest of your life, so how can I let anything happen?” He smiled softly, but he somehow began feeling that the torn papers in his pocket weighed heavily on his mind. After returning to the hotel, while Madeline bathed, Jeremy sat on the sofa and took the opportunity to quickly sort the pieces of paper.Fortunately, the paper fragments were not too small, so Jeremy still managed to sort it out, messiness aside.With his quick reading speed, he finished the entire checkup r

    He took the hairdryer and helped Madeline dry her hair.While she enjoyed being taken care of by Jeremy, Madeline started to reflect on the recent events, finding them a little bizarre.She had been eating and drinking the same things as the Grays. If someone had deliberately laced her food with a slow-acting poison, then who could it be? Further, how did this person come about the slow-acting poison?Madeline pondered but quickly dismissed this thought.At this point, she still could not be completely sure what is happening to her, so she should not freak herself out.After her hair was dried, Madelina and Jeremy decided to have a meal before they went to the airport.The winter in St. Piaf was extremely cold. Even with their coats on, they still could not withstand the bone-chilling winds of winter. Jeremy was tightly holding onto Madeline’s hand, so he could plainly feel her shivering hands.“Linnie, you should wait at the convenience store in front. I’ll tell you when I’ve

    When Madeline saw Shirley in front of her, she realized that it was not a coincidence she had run into her. It was all done intentionally.A cold gust of wind blew over without a warning and Madeline immediately felt her body freezing over. Not only that, but her heart also started to ache vaguely.When Shirley saw Madeline frowning, she curled the corner of her red lips slightly.“I’m naming it AXT69. This is my latest mysterious anti-toxoid test reagent. I added some ingredients that can make people suffer even more on top of the original ingredients.”While she said that, she walked closer in front of Madeline.“Just like right now, you’re feeling excruciating pain in your heart. Apart from having breathing difficulties, you’ll also feel as though your entire body is being submerged in ice water. Every inch of your skin is enduring a coldness that feels as if you’re being sliced open by knives.”After hearing what Shirley said, Madeline understood completely.She did not need

    He quickly removed his coat and placed it over Madeline.However, it did not seem that Madeline was becoming better at all.“Linnie, what happened to you? Where does it hurt?”“Jeremy, it’s useless no matter how many coats you give her. She’ll still feel cold, and she’ll still be in so much pain she won’t be able to breathe freely.”Jeremy lifted his eyes suddenly. His frosty, cold eyes were stabbing straight at Shirley.“What did you say? What do you mean?”Shirley took a long drag of her cigarette. “Jeremy, you’re so smart and you still can’t tell what’s wrong with your wife?”Jeremy’s pupils constricted, and he spotted the anti-toxoid test reagent in Shirley’s hand. “It’s indeed you. Shirley Brown, what are you trying to do?”“Nothing. I just want to do an experiment.” Shirley chuckled lightly. “For your sake, just treat this as a gift for our acquaintance. Next time, you might not be so lucky.”After Shirley said this, she threw the anti-toxoid test reagent in her hand to

    Jeremy asked coldly. After getting a reply from the person on the other end of the phone, he walked straight to the door. “Wait for me. I’ll be there immediately!”He spoke in a commanding tone but immediately changed his expression after ending the call.Jeremy turned around and glanced gently at the sleeping Madeline before opening the door lightly to leave.When he got out of the hotel, Jeremy realized that it was currently snowing.Meanwhile, Shirley, dressed in a red coat, was standing and smoking conspicuously under a tree not far away from the entrance.Jeremy hurriedly walked over. Shirley turned her head calmly when she heard the hurried footsteps behind her. “You sure are fast. Sure enough, Eveline holds an extraordinary position in your heart. This proves that I didn’t choose the wrong target.”She smiled and walked toward Jeremy while smoking a cigarette, looking carefree.The fluttering snow fell on the shoulders of her red coat. The clashing red and white formed an

    She picked up the perfume and sprayed it all over her body before gargling with some mouthwash. She was worried that the lingering smell of cigarettes on her would leave a bad impression of her on the people inside the house.After making these preparations, Shirley sat in the car for a while before getting out.It was snowing heavier now, but she was not cold at all. Her racing heart and anxiety caused her entire body to feel hot.She had just gotten to the door when the bodyguard standing guard at the door stopped her with a cool face.“Ma’am, we can’t let anyone come in here. If you don’t have a reservation or an invitation card, please leave,” the bodyguard asked her to leave.“I’m here for Mr. Carter. Please tell him that I’m Miss… Shirley.”When she said the last word, she suddenly realized she did not have the right to call herself by her real name. She could only call herself by the code name given to her by Carter.However, the bodyguard at the door did not take what Sh

    Gina, who was standing at the door, saw this scene and was about to walk in when she was stopped by her husband.“Stop causing more trouble. Do you really want your son to be a bachelor for the rest of his life?”“Who said I'm going to make trouble? I’m going to tell them that I agree to this marriage now, okay?”Her husband was startled. “You’re agreeing to this?”Gina was about to answer when out of the corners of her eyes, she suddenly caught a glimpse of the lights in the room. It was followed by cheers and applause from inside.Ava pulled herself out of Daniel's embrace. She was surprised to find Madeline and Jeremy, her parents, and even Tom and Maisie slowly approaching them with smiles on their faces.Ava stared blankly at Madeline. Then, she finally understood that they had all worked together to arrange this.Only she and Daniel’s parents were kept in the dark.Daniel had never thought of leaving her at all. He just used a different approach to let her know that she w

    Upon hearing this, Gina slowly stopped.She never thought that Ava still had some respect for her in her heart.This really surprised her.However, she soon heard Madeline stand up for Ava. “Ava, you respect them, but have they ever respected you? Respect should be mutual.”“But Danny will always be their son. If Dan and I insist on getting married, his parents won’t be happy about it for the rest of their lives,” Ava said with a helpless sigh. “I really don't want Dan to be caught in the middle of this matter.”“But Ava…”“Maddie, don't persuade me. You should know best that when you truly love someone, you don't have to stay with them. As long as they’re safe, healthy, and happy, that's enough, isn't it?”There was a smile of relief on Ava's face as if she had already made a final decision in her heart.Madeline wanted to persuade her a little more, but nothing seemed appropriate at this moment.“Ava, are you leaving, then? Are you going to stop looking for him now?”“I've

    Daniel's parents, who were secretly observing Ava in the distance, gradually became more and more restless in the car.“Hmph, how dare she say that she has a deep relationship with Dan? It's been so long and she still doesn't know where Dan has gone,” Gina rolled her eyes and complained.Daniel's father glanced at Gina. “Stop being so mean. Right now, the most important thing is to find Dan. Ava isn’t a bad person. In the beginning, you disliked her because she didn’t have parents, money, and power. Now, her parents are alive and well, her mother is extremely rich, and her father is a specialist doctor and professor. What else are you dissatisfied with? Do you really want your son to stay single his entire life?”Gina was not happy when her husband was complaining about her. “Didn't you object at the beginning as well? I agreed with the relationship after that, but your father refused to agree to save his reputation. Why are you blaming me now?”“Stop talking.” Daniel's father in

    After Old Master Graham read Daniel's message, he was so angry that his eyes were wide open.‘He just got out of the hospital and he ran away for a woman?‘He even said that if he can't marry that woman, he won't get married in the future?’Old Master Graham would never allow such a thing to happen.However, when he thought about it, he still felt a little nervous.If Daniel really did not get married because of this, would this not be the end of the Graham family?‘I can’t let this happen.’After Ava ran out, she went to find Daniel in all the places she could think of. However, after spending the entire morning, she still could not find Daniel.She tried to call Daniel, and although the call was connected, it was always unanswered.As time passed, Ava felt very tired. She sat down on the chair by the roadside and watched the street where people came and went. Then, a deep sense of loss welled up from the bottom of her heart.‘Dan, have you decided to just give up?‘Are we

    “I'll be right back!”Gina hurriedly ran back. Suddenly, she turned back and stopped Ava, who was about to follow her.“Don’t follow me! You’re not welcomed at our house.”Despite Gina's warning, Ava could not stop herself from looking for Daniel.She did not know what was going on. How could Daniel suddenly be discharged by himself? He had obviously been in a coma on the hospital bed. He did not wake up this whole time.On the way there, Ava called Daniel, but Daniel did not answer.Ava did not know if Daniel had his phone with him, but in short, she could not get into contact with him.She wanted so badly to stand in front of Daniel right now, but there was traffic on the way.When Ava followed Gina into the door of Graham Manor, she heard Gina's sharp voice. “What? Dan’s gone? Where did he go? D-Didn't he just wake up? What the hell is going on?”“Look at this and you'll know what's going on." Daniel's father sounded like he was reproaching someone, then he seemed to hand s

    Ava stared at the empty ward for a while. Then, she returned to her senses and immediately went to look for Daniel.However, after looking around for a while, Ava could not find Daniel, which made her feel a little nervous.At this time, Gina also came in.She saw that the ward was empty, and Daniel, who was supposed to be lying on the hospital bed, had disappeared.“What’s going on? Where’s Dan? Did the doctor take Dan away?” Gina looked at Ava and asked with an unfriendly expression on her face.Ava was used to Gina's attitude, so she did not bother to argue with Gina. Instead, she replied, “I want to know as well.”“How could you not know? You came before me.”“Dan wasn't in the ward when I came,” Ava said and turned around. “I'll go to the nurse's station and ask.”“Wait.”Gina grabbed Ava, her face was dark.“Ava, let me tell you this. Dan has suffered a lot and gotten a lot of injuries because of you. Because of you, both Naya and her mother have been sent to prison. It

    Since Julie was about to think that way, it showed that she was a reasonable person.“Lily.” Julie walked up to Lillian and squatted down, giving her a friendly blessing. “Lily, I really like you. I hope you can be happy every day, and I hope you’ll be able to speak soon.”Lillian was a sensible child. She raised a sweet smile and nodded vigorously, indicating that she acknowledged Julie's blessing.Julie stood up and faced Fabian. Right now, there was a little more admiration in her eyes and a little less of her unwilling persistence before.If one liked someone, one did not necessarily have to stubbornly fight for it.Julie did not say anything and just smiled at Fabian.Fabian did not say anything more either. He bent over and picked Lillian up in his arms. Before turning around, he gave Julie a friendly smile.“Miss Charles, you can still come to me if you need help in the future. After all, I still owe you a favor.”Julie smiled and shook her head. “You stopped owing me an

    “I did,” Fabian admitted frankly.Julie thought she would feel embarrassed because of this, but she did not know why she still felt very relaxed. Even so, she still felt a little embarrassed.In order to not make Julie feel embarrassed, Fabian smiled and said, “I wanted to help you get out of that situation, Miss Charles, but I didn't want to cross the line. I also didn’t expect someone to have taken a video and put it on the internet. Lily and I have caused you much trouble. I'm really sorry about that.”Fabian paused as he spoke, then, he glanced at Lillian softly.“But Miss Charles, rest assured, there’ll be no such trouble in the future.”Julie was stunned for a moment when she heard the words, and she inexplicably felt a strong sense of loss coming up from the bottom of her heart.She looked at Fabian suspiciously, and sure enough, the words she heard next made her feel remorseful.“Miss Charles, I’ve found a more suitable school for Lily, and it’s closer to where I work so

    The scene of Mr. Martinez causing a ruckus and Fabian coming to the rescue with Lillian at the end was all recorded and posted on the internet.This person was still a little conscientious and had censored Lillian's appearance, but Fabian's figure and face were clearly visible in the video.Patty recognized the person in the video as Fabian at a glance.After seeing the comments below, Patty was even more anxious.“Julie, how could you fall in love with a single father?”Julie frowned. “Yes, I won't deny it. I do have a crush on Mr. Johnson.”“What?”“Tsk tsk… Julie, do you really like this single father?” The look in Mrs. Gill's eyes was very subtle. “Someone dug up all his information, and it turns out that this man is Yorick's younger brother. Back then, Yorick stirred up all kinds of troubles and did whatever he wanted in F Country. His sister, Lana, was also notorious in our circle.”“What? He's Yorick and Lana's younger brother?” Patty was even more nervous, for fear that
