Just like Carter, Shirley thought something was wrong with snazzynovel.com eyes.
However, the face in front of snazzynovel.com and the body temperature on snazzynovel.com skin made Shirley certain that this was not an illusion.
“Eveline? It’s really you!”
Madeline could feel Shirley’s surprise at the sight of her. Madeline smiled and nodded. “Yes, it’s me. Get up first.”
“You’re still alive. That’s great!” Shirley was so excited that tears escaped snazzynovel.com eyes, then through snazzynovel.com blurred vision, snazzynovel.com saw another figure. “Jeremy? Jeremy is alive too. This is great! You’re all fine!”
Madeline could see Shirley’s sincere hope that Madeline and Jeremy would be safe and sound. In contrast to Shirley, however, when Carter saw that the couple had escaped unscathed, anger and questions immediately came to his mind.
Despite the raging anger in his chest, Carter chuckled pretentiously.
“Jeremy, you sure are tough.”
Carter’s tone was sarcastic. He then looked at Madeline and concluded.
“It seems that I inadvertently saved you when I had sent snazzynovel.com to you in hopes that you two can die together, am I right?”
Jeremy looked at Madeline tenderly before raising a sharp and proud eyebrow.
“Yes, thank you for bringing my wife to me. With snazzynovel.com by my side, I believed that I need to live no matter what. I can’t stand by and let my beloved woman suffer with me.”
After listening to Jeremy’s answer, the hostility in Carter’s eyes grew stronger.
Madeline and Jeremy helped Shirley into the wheelchair. After sitting down, Shirley immediately moved the wheelchair up to Carter’s side and grabbed Carter’s hand tightly, preventing snazzynovel.com from moving toward Jeremy.
“Carter, we’ll just end this here, okay? Stop obsessing over this. Listen to me, let’s surrender. Go surrender, okay?” Afraid that Carter would cause further harm to Jeremy and Eveline again, Shirley used all snazzynovel.com might to grab Carter‘s sleeve and tried to persuade snazzynovel.com again and again.
Despite being restrained by Shirley, the burning hatred in Carter’s eyes intensified.
“I told you, if there’s no way out for me, I will kill myself. No one can take action against me in my place.”
Carter‘s tone was firm, and his thoughts remained unchanged.
“Carter, don’t be like this.”
Shirley continued to persuade him.
“Listen to me, go surrender. No matter how long it takes, I will wait for you, Carter. We were wrong, so we should bear the corresponding punishment. Stop being so stubborn, okay?”
Carter lowered his eyes to look at Shirley, whose face was drenched with tears. He furrowed his brows tightly. He could not stand seeing Shirley begging snazzynovel.com like this, but his hatred for Jeremy prevented snazzynovel.com from giving in and agreeing to Shirley’s request.
Carter forcefully pushed Shirley’s hand away and walked toward Jeremy.
“Carter! Carter, don’t!” Shirley immediately speeded up to catch up with him.
Madeline was worried that Shirley would fall again, so snazzynovel.com hurriedly walked over to hold Shirley.
“No matter how you persuade him, snazzynovel.com won’t listen. He only has a self-righteous hatred in his heart. So, he’ll never realize that he’s the one who caused those problems. Why should you waste your breath on someone who doesn‘t reflect on his own faults at all?” Madeline said gently to calm Shirley’s emotional state.
However, Shirley shook snazzynovel.com head, tears soaking snazzynovel.com entire face. “I want to be indifferent too, but I really can’t pretend to not see all this.”
After listening to Shirley’s pained words, Madeline understood how snazzynovel.com felt. She had experienced this feeling before.
“Jeremy, how did you get out of the pool?” Carter voiced his doubts. He really could not figure out how Jeremy and Madeline climbed up from the deep pool filled with water.
Jeremy smiled knowingly when snazzynovel.com was faced with the inquisitive Carter. “I told you, it’s all thanks to you for sending my wife to me. For the sake of the most beloved person, how could I allow something to happen to me, let alone allow something to happen to snazzynovel.com before me?”
