Chapter 2100
Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Jeremyâs answer enflamed the fire in Carterâs heart. A few seconds later, his lips pulled into a wicked smile.
âIt seems that God wants the two of us to end this face to face. Okay, then we will do just that! â
Carter was about to make a move immediately after speaking. Judging from his actions, it seemed that he was carrying a gun.
âCarter, I advise you not to act rashly.â
At this moment, another voice came from the front. Fabian walked over calmly with his hands in his pockets.
When Fabian appeared, the group of people who wanted to catch Carter that day appeared behind him.
Soon after, Carter was surrounded by those people again.
âCarter, donât try to struggle unnecessarily!â the man holding the gun warned.
âWe received the orders from the higherâups to take you back to St. Piaf for interrogation. If you dare to resist violently, we will also take corresponding measures to deal with you. We hope you know whatâs good for you now.â
âWhatâs good for me?â
Carter repeated these four words with a smile.
âHow dare you warn me like this?â
âCarter, do you still think that you are the Viscount of St. Piaf? Youâre just a fugitive who has committed a crime! â
âHeh, heheâ¦â
Carter laughed, wondering how he had fallen to this point.
These people who would normally need to humble themselves before him could now threaten and warn him with such bold words.
At the sight of this, Shirley came to Carterâs side again nervously. âCarter, donât try to go head-to â
head with them. Listen to me, okay? Just listen to me and go back with them. Youâre a viscount at the end of the day, arenât you? They wouldnât dare do anything to you.â
Shirley clung to Carterâs hand in a panic.
âI was wrong, I shouldnât have asked them to arrest you. Carter, Iâm begging you, stop resisting, okay? â
Shirleyâs face was dreadfully pale because she was almost at the point of pleading with him.
Carterâs eyebrows furrowed further at the present. He still did not want to give in, but upon listening to Shirleyâs pleading, Carterâs heart softened involuntarily.
However, he still glanced at Jeremy reluctantly.
Seeing that Carter still wanted to make a move against Jeremy, Shirley grabbed him with all her might.
âNo, Carter.â
Carterâs heart hurt. He lowered his eyes to look at Shirley, who was full of sorrow, and then he suddenly squatted before her.
âI promise you I wonât resist.â Shirley froze for a moment. âReally?â
âReally,â Carter promised and nodded. âIf this is the last thing I can do for you, I promise.â
â⦠The last thing? Carter, what does this mean?â Shirley hurriedly grabbed Carterâs hand.
However, Carter just smiled deeply and finally turned his gaze on Jeremy.
âJeremy, letâs settle this once and for all.â
