Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife chapter 1890
She remembered him calling her this way back
then, but it had been before she left without notice.
Before that, Carter had truly been good to her.
“ Shirley, don’t worry. No matter what happens to you, I’ll take care of you forever.”
Carter promised softly.
Shirley could not believe what she heard. She felt her heart skipping a beat, and tears escaped her eyes
disobediently once again.
Carter, noticing the tears in the corners of Shirley’s eyes, paused, looking pleasantly surprised.
“Shirley, you’re awake? Are you awake?”
Shirley did not want to keep up the act any further. She slowly opened her wet, red eyes, and calmly met an elated
Carter.
“I don’t need you to take care of me, and I won’t go back to St. Piaf with you. I want to die in Glendale, to die in my
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthometown. I want to be buried with my parents and brother.”
Shirley, determined, pulled her hand away from Carter’s palm.
“I don’t want to see you again. Seeing you merely reminds me that I killed my brother and that innocent girl.”
She turned her face as she spoke. She refused to even let Carter be within her line of sight.
Upon seeing how strongly Shirley resisted him,
Carter clenched his fists, but he kept the displeasure and annoyance in his heart off his face.
“Ada was the one who set the fire that killed Adam and Cathy. It has nothing to do with me.”
“Nothing to do with you?” Shirley laughed. “Even now, you’re still trying to play innocent.”
“I’m not playing innocent. That’s the truth.”
“We’ll just treat it as the truth, then. The truth is that I no longer have any love for you, only hate. ”
“Carter, you and I are like two intersecting lines.” Shirley slowly opened her tearful eyes. “Despite our vastly
different statuses, we had come together,
and after that most intimate stage, we went our separate ways. This is our ending. From now on, whether I live or
die, I’ll have nothing to do with you. If you still have any sympathy or humanity in you, please respect my decision.”
Shirley’s decision momentarily stunned Carter.
Seeing her avoiding his side glance, Carter pressed his lips together. He eventually turned around and left the room
without uttering a word.
When Shirley heard the door closing, she opened her eyes.
She stared at the ceiling and smiled in relief.
She felt lucky that she had asked the runner to send the test reagents out the morning when Carter and Camille
were busy preparing to return to St. Piaf.
Jeremy must have received it by now.
It had been such a long time. She had never thought about developing more anti-toxoid test reagents. She did not
have what was required.
However, back then, she finally had a chance to enter Carter’s laboratory. After she finished developing the anti-
toxoid test reagent for AXP69, she also used this opportunity to finish developing the anti-toxoid test reagent that
Jeremy needed.
The process of developing the anti-toxoid test reagent for AXP69 was very complicated because it was a newly
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmdeveloped poison.
However, the poison Jeremy had was a mature poison that had complete data, so she could easily develop it as
long as she had the ingredients.
Shirley let out a silent sigh of relief. Even though she knew that her body was completely ruined, she felt relieved
for some reason.
“Addy, didn’t you wish that I’d repent one day? I’ve finally heeded your words, and I’ve earnestly fixed my mistakes.
Will you forgive me?”
Shirley mumbled to herself. She knew she could never again get the answer to this.
When she thought about how Adam and Cathy died because of her, she could not forgive herself.
She could not blame anyone. She affected everyone around her because she had been on the wrong path since the
start.
Regardless, Shirley did not think that Carter would let her off the hook just like that.
After some thought, Shirley lifted her hand effortfully to press the call button to send a nurse over.
The nurse ran over quickly, thinking something had happened to Shirley. However, Shirley looked at her sincerely
and said, “Nurse, can you help me with something?”
