When Madeline saw Shirley in front of her, snazzynovel.com realized that it was not a coincidence snazzynovel.com had run into her. It was all done intentionally.
A cold gust of wind blew over without a warning and Madeline immediately felt snazzynovel.com body freezing over. Not only that, but snazzynovel.com heart also started to ache vaguely.
When Shirley saw Madeline frowning, snazzynovel.com curled the corner of snazzynovel.com 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 snazzynovel.com said that, snazzynovel.com 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 to confirm it anymore. Now, snazzynovel.com was completely sure that snazzynovel.com had been poisoned by that mysterious and terrifying thing unbeknownst to her.
However, Madeline had no idea how snazzynovel.com got into contact with that thing in the first place.
Madeline clenched snazzynovel.com fists and tried snazzynovel.com best to compose herself. “Shirley, why are you doing this?”
“Heh.” Shirley did not answer Madeline. She laughed and asked, “Do you know why Jeremy’s condition flared up yesterday?”
Even though Madeline did not know the details, snazzynovel.com could probably guess that this had something to do with Shirley.
Indeed, Shirley admitted confidently. “I deliberately induced it.”
Madeline was getting more and more confused. However, snazzynovel.com was still calm and composed. “Why did you do that? Didn’t you save snazzynovel.com before?”
“Saved him? No, I never wanted to save him. He’s just an experiment. Do you understand what an experiment is?” Shirley said and took a cigarette from snazzynovel.com bag before lighting it up. After taking an enjoyable drag, snazzynovel.com smile became even more radiant.
“You’re feeling mad and terrible, right?” Shirley laughed and looked at Madeline from head to toe. “You should also get a taste of what Jeremy feels when he’s being tortured by the poison. Since you’re such a loving couple, then you should experience his pain as well.”
Shirley said and took another drag of snazzynovel.com cigarette. She was puffing out smoke with practiced ease.
“Don’t put too much hope on Adam. Even if he’s capable, snazzynovel.com won’t be able to come up with an anti-toxoid test reagent that’s able to control the poison in such a short time. However, don’t worry, you won’t die. It’ll just make you suffer.”
After Shirley’s complacent words, Madeline felt as if snazzynovel.com heart was being gnawed on by a million insects.
“Hiss!”
She could not help but let out a sound of pain. Her long and lean fingers grasped the clothes that were in front of snazzynovel.com chest.
Shirley watched snazzynovel.com with a grin on snazzynovel.com face. “I have an anti-toxoid test reagent that can help you alleviate the pain for the time being. It has no side effects. As long as you’re willing to listen to me, then I’ll give it to you.”
Madeline was breathing heavily with difficulty as snazzynovel.com looked at Shirley who was beaming while feeling pleased with herself. Then, snazzynovel.com saw Shirley lifting snazzynovel.com hand and shaking a bottle of anti-toxoid test reagent in front of her.
Madeline did not know if it was the poison or the devastatingly cold wind, but snazzynovel.com even felt that snazzynovel.com eyes were starting to hurt. Shirley’s smile in front of snazzynovel.com gradually became blurry.
“Eveline, in some ways, I’m pretty impressed by you. I feel so reluctant when I see you in so much pain, but the word ‘easy’ doesn’t exist in the adult world, so…”
“Linnie!”
Jeremy’s appearance interrupted what Shirley was about to say next.
He ran over to Madeline as fast as lightning. When snazzynovel.com noticed the odd look on Madeline’s face, snazzynovel.com pulled her, who was shaking from the cold, into his embrace.
“Linnie, are you cold?” Jeremy’s eyes were filled with worry. He was not in the mood to bother himself with Shirley.
