Madeline Crawford and Jeremy Whitman
Chapter 1661

Chapter 1661

When Madeline saw Shirley in front of her, she realized that it was not a coincidence she had run into her. It was all done intentionally.

A cold gust of wind blew over without a warning and Madeline immediately felt her body freezing over. Not only that, but her heart also started to ache vaguely.

When Shirley saw Madeline frowning, she curled the corner of her red lips slightly.

"I'm naming it AXT69. This is my latest mysterious anti-toxoid test reagent. I added some ingredients that can make people suffer even more on top of the original ingredients."

While she said that, she walked closer in front of Madeline.

"Just like right now, you're feeling excruciating pain in your heart. Apart from having breathing difficulties, you'll also feel as though your entire body is being submerged in ice water. Every inch of your skin is enduring a coldness that feels as if you're being sliced open by knives."

After hearing what Shirley said, Madeline understood completely.

She did not need to confirm it anymore. Now, she was completely sure that she had been poisoned by that mysterious and terrifying thing unbeknownst to her.

However, Madeline had no idea how she got into contact with that thing in the first place.

Madeline clenched her fists and tried her best to compose herself. "Shirley, why are you doing this?"

"Heh." Shirley did not answer Madeline. She laughed and asked, "Do you know why Jeremy's condition flared up yesterday?"

Even though Madeline did not know the details, she could probably guess that this had something to do with Shirley.

Indeed, Shirley admitted confidently. "I deliberately induced it."

Madeline was getting more and more confused. However, she was still calm and composed. "Why did you do that? Didn't you save him before?"

"Saved him? No, I never wanted to save him. He's just an experiment. Do you understand what an experiment is?" Shirley said and took a cigarette from her bag before lighting it up. After taking an enjoyable drag, her smile became even more radiant.

"You're feeling mad and terrible, right?" Shirley laughed and looked at Madeline from head to toe. "You should also get a taste of what Jeremy feels when he's being tortured by the poison. Since you're such a loving couple, then you should experience his pain as well."

Shirley said and took another drag of her cigarette. She was puffing out smoke with practiced ease.

"Don't put too much hope on Adam. Even if he's capable, he won't be able to come up with an anti-toxoid test reagent that's able to control the poison in such a short time. However, don't worry, you won't die. It'll just make you suffer."

After Shirley's complacent words, Madeline felt as if her heart was being gnawed on by a million insects.

"Hiss!"

She could not help but let out a sound of pain. Her long and lean fingers grasped the clothes that were in front of her chest.

Shirley watched her with a grin on her face. "I have an anti-toxoid test reagent that can help you alleviate the pain for the time being. It has no side effects. As long as you're willing to listen to me, then I'll give it to you."

Madeline was breathing heavily with difficulty as she looked at Shirley who was beaming while feeling pleased with herself. Then, she saw Shirley lifting her hand and shaking a bottle of anti-toxoid test reagent in front of her.

Madeline did not know if it was the poison or the devastatingly cold wind, but she even felt that her eyes were starting to hurt. Shirley's smile in front of her gradually became blurry.

"Eveline, in some ways, I'm pretty impressed by you. I feel so reluctant when I see you in so much pain, but the word 'easy' doesn't exist in the adult world, so..."

"Linnie!"

Jeremy's appearance interrupted what Shirley was about to say next.

He ran over to Madeline as fast as lightning. When he noticed the odd look on Madeline's face, he pulled her, who was shaking from the cold, into his embrace. "Linnie, are you cold?" Jeremy's eyes were filled with worry. He was not in the mood to bother himself with Shirley.
