Chapter 1899

As Carter spoke, his face fell. “The price was our child becoming a puddle of blood water.”

His eyes glared with smoldering hatred as he said this.

“Heh.” He chuckled again and looked at Madeline and Jeremy with his hostile eyes.

“You have three children, right? You must feel delighted and blessed to be parents, right? How will you feel if your children died?”

“Carter,” Jeremy interrupted Carter. He would not listen to statements like this. How would he allow someone to curse his three treasures with hypothetical statements like this?

“Carter, Shirley miscarried because you indirectly killed Adam and Cathy, causing her to lose her will to live and to have these negative thoughts. And that’s what caused the tragedy. You’re really something else for blaming that on us.”

When Carter heard what Jeremy said, he laughed. “Jeremy, do you think that’s the truth?

“The truth is that she never wanted the child because she has the poison of APX6g in her body. Plus, she used the anti-toxoid test reagent back then so that the child would have a large possibility of being disabled at birth.”

His hateful eyes were fixed on Jeremy’s face as he spoke.

“You’re the one who injected the AXP69 into her body. So, do you understand now, Jeremy? Do you understand how my child died?”

Carter was obviously targeting and pushing all responsibility on Jeremy.

However, Madeline would not allow Carter to deflect the blame like this.

“Carter, of course, we understand. You’re the one who doesn’t.”

Madeline retorted immediately.

Carter seemed stunned. He looked at Madeline in displeasure.

Madeline boldly met Carter’s hateful gaze.

“Carter, you must understand how AXP69 came about and how I got this poison inside me in the first place.

“Shirley’s already doing everything she could to make up for the wrong things she did in the past. Why can’t you face your problems and keep pushing the blame to the innocent victims?”

After Carter heard what Madeline said, he scowled. His expression turned darker and darker.

After a long while, he smiled knowingly and creepily.

“I won’t let my child be lonely. Just you wait, I’ll make you feel the way I feel.”

Carter spoke, turned around, and got into the car. He casually drifted then drove away.

Madeline did not care about Carter’s threats. At this moment, the thing she cared about was how Jeremy felt.

She lifted his eyes to look at the man next to him. Jeremy was indeed frowning; his expression was slightly dark.

Madeline knew Jeremy must be blaming himself right now.

“Jeremy, are you thinking about Shirley’s child?” Madeline asked directly.

Jeremy did not speak. He only lowered his eyes and shifted his gentle gaze onto Madeline’s face.

“We all must take responsibility for our actions. I can understand how you felt when you injected AXP69 into Shirley. If I were you, I’d do the same too.

“Linnie, I don’t think I was wrong. But if I had hurt an innocent life, I would feel some remorse.”

“So would I. After all, the child was innocent. But think about it, if I had been the one who was pregnant, do you think Shirley and Carter would’ve stopped coming at me? They wouldn’t have.”

Madeline gave a firm answer and smiled.

“But I do know that if you’d known Shirley to be pregnant, you wouldn’t have done it.”

When Jeremy heard what Madeline said, he felt as if the pressure on his heart lifted.
