Chapter 2092

To sit on the throne that symbolized the position of power, he had started planning a long time ago.

“Every man for himself, and the Devil takes the hindmost,“ Carter answered Madeline indifferently.

Madeline looked at Carter who said these words contemptuously. “Carter, you can fight for the goal you want, but you can’t get it using improper means.“

“Why not? The process doesn’t matter to me at all. What I want is the result,“ Carter argued in defense.

“So, Shirley’s feelings aren’t important to you? Do you mean that what matters to you is being happy and getting what you want?“

Upon hearing this, Carter’s expression froze slightly.

Puzzled, he frowned and stared at Madeline’s sharp and beautiful eyes.

“Eveline, what do you want to say?“

“You still haven’t figured this out? And you’re still claiming that you really like Shirley.“

“If you really liked Shirley, you wouldn’t have ignored her feelings, fettered her to you, and asked her to do everything for you. Have you ever thought that she actually didn’t want to do those things? She was merely blinded by her love for you, and she consequently lost herself. But what about you?

You’ve only pursued results. You’ve only wanted to win.“

Madeline directly hit Carter where it hurt. “Carter, what you love the most is yourself.“ “Enough! Shut up! “

Carter could not listen to this any longer.

He stood up with a dark face and glared at Madeline.

“Eveline, don’t you dare lecture me. How did Jeremy treat you in the first place? Have you forgotten?

Did he care about your feelings? So, how can you accuse me now? This man is even more hateful than me when it comes to relationships! “

Carter cursed, pointing at Jeremy angrily.

Jeremy did not avoid it at all, but he raised his sharp eyebrows and gave Carter a level-headed stare instead.

“You’re right. I was a blind scumbag back then, and I had also done a lot of unreasonable things to the one I loved, but at least, I knew I was wrong, and I’ve changed. You, on the other hand, still haven’t realized your mistakes and you’re still stubbornly insisting on your ways.“

“Hmph.“

Carter smiled disdainfully at Madeline and Jeremy when he saw them echoing each other.

“Since you’re so in love, so considerate and supportive of each other, you should cherish your last moments well.“

Humiliated, Carter seemed to fly into a rage. After speaking, he walked to the switch of the pool and then turned on the water valve.

Madeline and Jeremy saw water rushing in from a hole at the bottom of the pool.

Carter was planning to drown them.

After doing that, Carter only turned his head and glanced at Jeremy and Madeline indifferently.

“Since you’re so in love, I will grant you your dying wish.“

“Carter! “ Jeremy tried to stop Carter. He did not want Madeline nor himself to drown here.

“Jeremy, you don’t have to beg him,“ Madeline said calmly. Her eyes were still sharp as she looked at Carter without showing any weakness.

Carter looked impressively at Madeline for a few seconds and then chuckled coldly, feeling pleased with himself.

“When you get to hell, properly repent the sins you’ve done to my child.“

After he said that, Carter turned around carefreely.

Soon, the iron door before them was slammed shut. Madeline and Jeremy were now trapped in this enclosed basement, and the water in the pool slowly rose. Soon after, it came up to Madeline’s waist…
