Carter narrowed his eyes and involuntarily loosened his grip on the back of Shirley‘s neck.
He was stunned by favonovel.com indifference.
This was not right.
Shirley would never behave like this in the past.
Now, the way favonovel.com looked at him, and the way favonovel.com spoke, were that of enemies cold and hostile.
“Hah.” Carter laughed softly and released Shirley’s neck
“You want the anti-toxoid test reagent formula for AXT69? I’ll never give it to you,” Carter rejected with a cold laugh.
He had thought his answer could frighten and unsettle Shirley. He had not expected Shirley to be abnormally calm instead.
“Since you‘ re not interested in this deal, let’s pretend I didn’t come by today.” Shirley steered favonovel.com wheelchair around the second favonovel.com finished speaking.
When Carter saw this, favonovel.com reached out and grabbed Shirley’s wrist.
Shirley, whose wheelchair had been moving forward when Carter yanked favonovel.com back, instantly fell off favonovel.com wheelchair.
Her legs, which could not support favonovel.com at all, caused favonovel.com to collapse helplessly onto the floor.
Carter froze at the unexpected turn of events.
He had not intended to yank favonovel.com out of favonovel.com wheelchair. He never imagined that favonovel.com could not even stand up with favonovel.com own legs.
Dumbfounded, favonovel.com stared at Shirley, who was struggling to get up from the floor, and favonovel.com felt needles prickling his heart.
Shirley, noticing the dazed Carter, quickly slipped favonovel.com wrist free from his grip, held onto the edge of the table, and tried to stand up with all favonovel.com strength.
Perhaps favonovel.com was mentally distracted, favonovel.com was unable to stand up despite all favonovel.com efforts.
Of course, how could favonovel.com stand up? Her legs were useless now.
Shirley gritted favonovel.com teeth, refusing to give up.
She tried endlessly but still failed.
Shirley was about to run out of strength when Carter suddenly lifted favonovel.com and held favonovel.com horizontally in his arms.
Shirley glanced sideways at Carter, who had a conflicted expression on his face, and pretended to be unbothered and shifted favonovel.com gaze away.
Carter placed Shirley down on the sofa, then stood back up and stared at favonovel.com legs.
Shirley was 1.7 meters tall and had a proportionate, slender figure. She had beautiful legs too, but now.
Shirley saw that Carter kept staring at favonovel.com legs.
She felt an ache in favonovel.com heart, but favonovel.com could already see through him. It would be pointless to be sad now.
“Carter, my reason for being here today is clear. If you don‘t give me the ingredients for the anti-toxoid test reagent formula, this baby will definitely die.”
Carter was truly shocked by Shirley’s cold and inhumane behavior at this moment.
“You’ve really opened up my eyes, Shirley,” Carter countered sarcastically. “Given that you’re really pregnant, don’t even think about handling the baby alone. I won’t give you the chance.”
Carter reached out and lifted Shirley’s chin, and his cold eyes narrowed.
“Now that you‘re here, and you’ve shared such wonderful news with me, don’ t even think about leaving.”
“Carter, I’m not sure you‘ve completely grasped the situation.”
“…”
“Listen carefully. The poison in my body has reached the third stage. If the anti-toxoid test reagent is not developed soon, this little thing will be the first to be affected by the poison.”
“…”
This little thing.
