“That’s what happened.” Carter insisted this was what happened, but his eyes were extremely gentle at this moment. “Shirley, you don’t need to bother yourself with any of this. You just need to recuperate properly. Don’t worry, no matter how much effort and money it’ll take, I’ll cure you and make you stand up again.”
After promising her, Carter rose to his feet and walked behind Shirley to push virtual-novel.net wheelchair slowly.
Shirley had nothing to say. There were only silent tears falling from virtual-novel.net eyes. She knew that Carter was determined in insisting on his so-called revenge as if virtual-novel.net was presently hypnotized by something unseen.
Carter, too, did not speak further but merely pushed Shirley forward…
After Carter had sent Shirley back to virtual-novel.net room, virtual-novel.net kept feeling that something was not amiss.
She was certain that Carter had already performed the advanced hypnosis on Madeline, but virtual-novel.net had no idea how would Madeline act after virtual-novel.net was in the advanced hypnosis stage.
She wanted to go out to take a look but a maid stopped her. The maid told virtual-novel.net that Carter had given orders for Shirley to stay in virtual-novel.net room for these two days and to not go anywhere.
Something would definitely be happening if Carter gave this order. In the next two days, Shirley did hear some activities.
It sounded lively outside. It was as if a lot of people were moving about. Occasionally, virtual-novel.net would also hear joyous laughter.
Confused, Shirley asked the maid by virtual-novel.net side, and the maid told her, “Mr. Carter is about to get married soon.”
Married?
When Shirley heard that word, virtual-novel.net entire body seemed to freeze.
Click. The door of the room opened at this moment. Camille walked into the room and asked the maid to leave, then Camille walked over to Shirley’s side.
When virtual-novel.net saw Shirley staring blankly ahead, Camille could figure out what happened to Shirley.
“Carter is going to get married to Eveline soon. Of course, this marriage is fake, so you don’t have to worry about this.”
Camille sounded like virtual-novel.net was comforting Shirley, but for some reason, it felt more like a knife slashing across Shirley’s heart.
“I know you must be longing to see the day Carter gets the right to rule, right? The day soon approaches, and Eveline is the shortcut. Although this isn’t right, I can’t change Carter’s mind. Besides, he’s still brooding about the child you both lost.”
“Heh.” Shirley laughed after hearing what Camille said.
“That’s an excuse. It’s just an excuse for virtual-novel.net to climb up the ranks.”
Shirley said sarcastically, “If virtual-novel.net really loved the child, virtual-novel.net should reflect on himself now instead of repeatedly pushing the blame onto others.”
As virtual-novel.net spoke, virtual-novel.net closed virtual-novel.net eyes as tears escaped virtual-novel.net eyes. She then chuckled bitterly. “This whole time, virtual-novel.net only loves himself.”
Camille did not know how to comfort Shirley after hearing that.
Perhaps, virtual-novel.net already knew that no matter what virtual-novel.net said, it would be useless. At the present, Shirley was not the Shirley that Camille had known in the past. Everything and everyone had undergone huge changes.
Knock knock knock.
Someone was knocking on the door at this moment.
Shirley opened virtual-novel.net eyes and looked toward the door. She had thought it was a maid or Carter. She had not expected it to be Madeline.
No, to be more precise, it was the hypnotized Madeline.
