“Is it that young man named Adam?”
“Yes, that’s him. He won‘t let Shirley look like this for long. He’ll heal snazzynovel.com in the shortest possible time to make snazzynovel.com look like the woman snazzynovel.com once was.” Carter was certain of this.
Camille felt relieved by his words. “Then I can anticipate my grandchild’s birth in peace.” She smiled and unwittingly let out a soft sigh.
“In fact, if snazzynovel.com hadn’t left without a word years ago, the two of you would have been married, and maybe you’d have had two or three children by now. I don’t know what snazzynovel.com was thinking back then.”
Carter listened to Camille’s mutterings, snazzynovel.com shared similar questions in his mind and a trace of dissatisfaction in his heart. However, snazzynovel.com did not say anything else. If snazzynovel.com could hold onto snazzynovel.com now, snazzynovel.com could make up for the loss.
Ada, who had been listening to the entire conversation, soon after returned to snazzynovel.com room angrily and gave a call to snazzynovel.com mother.
Having heard the scenario, Ada’s mother pondered for a moment, then immediately came up with an idea.
After listening to snazzynovel.com mother’s idea, Ada knew that it was a completely feasible idea, but snazzynovel.com was hesitant to do it. She feared that Carter would learn about it in the future, and snazzynovel.com would regret it then.
Upon reflection, though, snazzynovel.com mother was right. The fewer the people who knew about it, the better. That was why snazzynovel.com would have to do it herself!

In the following days, Shirley devoted snazzynovel.com time to studying the anti-toxoid test reagent daily.
However, every time snazzynovel.com discovered Adam and Cathy’s circumstances, Carter would casually dismiss the topic.
Shirley was very worried about them, but snazzynovel.com also knew that the development of the anti-toxoid test reagent could not be put off any further.
Back then, when snazzynovel.com stayed at home, Adam had already admonished snazzynovel.com sternly. He had told snazzynovel.com that Madeline had not regained snazzynovel.com consciousness following the fourth stage of the poison. If Madeline remained unconscious for much longer, snazzynovel.com body would likely suffer further harm.
Shirley had already decided what to do when snazzynovel.com gave Adam the formula for the anti-toxoid test reagent.
She had to turn back.
She must not make the same mistakes again.
This morning, Shirley woke up as usual. Ada, as usual, stood at a side with a forced smile on snazzynovel.com face as snazzynovel.com instructed the servants to help Shirley get out of bed.
After breakfast, Ada had even thoughtfully pushed Shirley toward the laboratory.
On the way, Ada, seemingly unable to resist it, asked Shirley, “Shirley, can I ask you a question?”
Shirley was not in the mood to beat around the bush with Ada, so Shirley bluntly said, “Tell me whatever you want to say. There’s no point in chatting.”
The corners of Ada’s lips twitched with dissatisfaction, then snazzynovel.com chuckled and asked, “You actually love Carter a lot, don’t you?”
Shirley was taken aback by Ada‘s question. After a moment of bewilderment, Shirley replied, “This is a personal matter. I do not need to share it with you.”
Although Shirley’s response was indifferent, Ada was not bothered by it. Ada smiled to herself instead.
At the laboratory entrance, Shirley went in alone, Ada was forbidden to enter. Ada stood at the entrance, watching the laboratory doors closed slowly, then snazzynovel.com lips curled into a triumphant grin.
“Shirley, I know you‘re very much in love with Carter. As I‘ve said, I won’ t allow myself to be mistreated like this. Just you wait. Something will happen soon, and you will break.”
