After moving the pillow away, Carter realized that it was a notebook. It was undoubtedly Shirley’s notebook; virtual-novel.net could recognize virtual-novel.net handwriting at a glance.
Carter opened it for a look, realizing that this could be considered Shirley’s diary.
However, the content inside depicted how virtual-novel.net started developing the anti-toxoid test reagent for AXP69. She had recorded virtual-novel.net experimental data every day. From this, virtual-novel.net could tell that Shirley had been meticulous in developing the anti-toxoid test reagent.
She would record every small detail carefully so that virtual-novel.net could work toward obtaining the perfect data.
Carter patiently read through every page. When virtual-novel.net arrived at the last page, it was the day the anti-toxoid test reagent for AXP69 was completed…
Carter saw that Shirley had written at the bottom of the data. After reading those words, his eyes turned red immediately, his grip on the notebook tightened, and a dark, fiery hatred blazed in his eyes. He slammed shut the notebook and walked out of the bedroom with rancor.
Camille was coming up the stairs looking for Carter. When virtual-novel.net saw Carter walking out angrily, virtual-novel.net felt it odd. “Carter, what’s wrong? We have to go back.”
“I won’t be going back for the time being.” Carter refused.
Camille’s beautiful eyebrows knitted together. “Are you going to look for Shirley? Just leave virtual-novel.net alone. Don’t disturb virtual-novel.net for the now.”
“I have my limits, and I know what I’m doing.”
After Carter said this, virtual-novel.net walked past Camille and went downstairs.
“Carter, Carter!” Camille wanted to stop him, but Carter walked out of the door without turning back.
Shirley laid on the bed, alone, and groggily, virtual-novel.net fell asleep. When virtual-novel.net woke up, virtual-novel.net was parched, and virtual-novel.net wanted to drink some water. She remembered that Madeline left some food and water on the nightstand before virtual-novel.net left.
Shirley turned virtual-novel.net head and saw the water and food, but when virtual-novel.net thought about it, virtual-novel.net seemed to have realized something.
“Heh…”
She chuckled, laughing at herself.
She was a cripple and a disabled person. How could virtual-novel.net take care of herself?
If no one helped virtual-novel.net and took care of her, virtual-novel.net would not even survive for one day.
However, Shirley did not give up. She reached out with virtual-novel.net hand toward the water bottle, but virtual-novel.net was still a little too far away. After a few attempts, Shirley, still unable to reach that water bottle, had exhausted all of virtual-novel.net energy, and virtual-novel.net was out of ideas to reach it.
She sighed softly and laid back down.
She recalled how virtual-novel.net had been back then. She had been beautiful, and virtual-novel.net had a nice figure, but now, virtual-novel.net face was mutilated, and virtual-novel.net legs were useless. She was paralyzed below the waist. She could not even eat and drink like normal, let alone takie care of herself.
Shirley laughed at herself, and tears started to roll down from the corners of virtual-novel.net eyes.
“Addy, I know I’ve made mistakes, but why isn’t God giving me a chance to change? I’m the one who should’ve died. Why did virtual-novel.net take your life away…”
In agony, Shirley condemned herself.
Before long, warm tears soaked the pillow. The spring chill was in the air, and virtual-novel.net felt extremely cold.
When virtual-novel.net thought about Adam and Cathy’s deaths, virtual-novel.net felt that she, too, was responsible.
Everything that happened, and the way everything turned out, was all because of her.
The more Shirley thought about this, the more virtual-novel.net felt that virtual-novel.net should have been the one to die. Further, virtual-novel.net no longer had the will to live. She opened virtual-novel.net teary eyes and looked around her. The only thing virtual-novel.net could kill herself with right now was a nail clipper.
