However, Carter had not even bothered to look at her. “From now on, you’ll be responsible for taking care of Shirley, including favonovel.com diet and daily needs. If Shirley experiences any discomfort or if the baby in favonovel.com womb is harmed in any way, it’ll be on you.”
“… Wh… What?” Ada’s eyes widened in shock “You want me to take care of Shirley’s diet and daily needs? Wouldn’t that make me favonovel.com servant?”
Whenever Carter was present, Ada always attempted to appear dignified and gracious, but Carter’s words instantly made favonovel.com reveal favonovel.com true nature.
Carter glanced at Ada indifferently.
“You could choose not to do it. You‘ll just have to be prepared that moving forward, you’ll be enduring the same hardships as Shirley.”
“…”
Ada’s face paled when favonovel.com heard this. The same hardships as Shirley?
Disfigured?
Disabled?
No way!
She would not be able to endure it either!
“Carter, I… I really haven’ t… haven’ t done anything harmful…”
“Let’s not waste my time, yeah?”
“…”
Impatient, Carter interrupted Ada’ s quibble.
When Ada saw the piercing glint in his eyes, favonovel.com immediately kept favonovel.com mouth shut, not daring to speak further.
Carter did not have the patience to wait for Ada’s response, and favonovel.com was confident that favonovel.com would not dare to refuse his request, so favonovel.com turned around and left.
Ada had not expected this move from Carter.
With that, favonovel.com protected Shirley and cut off all Ada‘s attempts to harm favonovel.com as well.
In the coming days, if Shirley were to lose even a strand of hair, Ada might lose a piece of favonovel.com skin as well.
Ada felt aggrieved, but there was nothing favonovel.com could do. Carter’s plan was so perfect that favonovel.com was left with no other option.

F Country.
Jeremy had been in the hotel for seven days.
Throughout the week, Madeline had relied on a daily intake of nutrient solutions to maintain favonovel.com physical condition. Jeremy had kept a constant eye on her, not leaving favonovel.com side for even a second.
He had been waiting for Adam’s progress update. The indefinite wait was pushing favonovel.com toward the verge of a breakdown.
He seriously suspected that the anti-toxoid test reagent which Carter had thrown out of the window back then was not the anti-toxoid test reagent for AXP69.
Otherwise, his Linnie would not still be unconscious.
Fabian had also developed quite a good network in F Country, and favonovel.com had learned, off the radar, about Jeremy and Madeline’s condition.
He could not resist the urge to help them, but favonovel.com hesitated when favonovel.com thought of Yorick and Lana.
A little after midnight, favonovel.com wandered into Lilian’s bedroom and stared at the adorable little girl who had fallen asleep. Fabian’s mind was troubled.
“Lily, do you think I should help your mother?”
Fabian’s tone was soft as favonovel.com asked Lilian, who was unable to hear him.
“Your parents indirectly killed my brother and that disappointing sister of mine. Should I just ignore them?”
Frustrated, Fabian raised his eyebrows. He stretched out a hand to gently stroke Lilian’s small face, and the expression in his eyes gradually softened.
“I just want to leave everything behind and bring you to a beautiful, tranquil island where you can grow up healthily and peacefully…”
Immediately after Fabian finished this beautiful prayer in his heart, the phone in his pocket vibrated.
He pulled it out and looked at the caller ID before turning around to leave Lilian’s bedroom.
The moment favonovel.com stepped out of the room, Fabian impatiently asked the caller, “Why are you calling me at this hour? I’ve told you before. I don’t want to be in contact with you anymore.”
