Chapter 467
Chapter 467
I went into the room and asked directly without sitting down, "Let's talk about it."
He walked to the sofa, picked up a cup, poured a cup of tea, sat down and said to me, "Have a sit."
I couldn't refuse, so I went to sit down.
The room was empty with no signs of any servants.
But from the things in the house, it did not look like no one had lived for a long time
When I got back to this room, I couldn't help thinking of Emily.
After the accident, she seemed to have disappeared and I never heard anything about her again.
When I was thinking about Emily, Shelton spoke first, "I suggest you stop the treatment of Glenn first. Those medicine won't work on him. They will only hurt him."
I looked at Shelton. His expression was calm and indifferent.
He leaned on the sofa as he spoke, with a hint of laziness in his tone.
It seemed that there was nothing to do with him.
My Glenn was in a dangerous situation, and he didn't care about it at all.
Of course he did. Glenn wasn't his child after all.
"Then you give me the cure," I said to Shelton.
I thought since Shelton did this, he must have the medicine to resist this virus.
Shelton put his two arms on the sofa, crossed his two hands on his face, and looked at me with a gentle expression. He said slowly, "Okay, marry me, let everything go back to the past, and I will save Glenn."
"It's impossible."
I blurted out these words.
I would never marry Shelton. I only wanted to be with Patrick. I have sworn that I won't leave Patrick.
Since I said it, I must keep my promise.
Shelton was not surprised at my refusal. He said calmly, "Well, you can go back now. After you think about it clearly, come to me whenever you want."
He was really not in a hurry.
But I was.
I stood up nervously and looked at him. After a lot of struggle in my heart, I said, "Shelton, he is just a child. If you have something to do, just come at me. Don't hurt Glenn. What did you inject into him?
You can cure him and then give me that injection."
I was not afraid of suffering.
As a mother, every time I looked at Glenn suffering, I felt so sad that I wanted to cry.
I really wanted that the one who had got sick was me as long as Glenn wouldn't feel uncomfortable anymore.
Shelton sat there, he slightly smiled. "No way. If you are sick, I will feel distressed."
"Then what exactly do you want!"
I was anxious.
I knew that I couldn't go back like this. I could only saw the painful face of Glenn if I went back now. In that case, it was really like living in the hell for me.
Shelton tilted his head and his face was as calm as before. "I just said that, I want you to marry me."
My hands clenched into fists. "Not a chance."
"Then there's nothing to talk about."
Shelton took out his cell phone from his pocket. He seemed to be reading the messages, and his eyes were no longer looking at me.
I was anxious. "Why me? I am over 30 years old this year. It is said that when a women is 30 years old, she'll be no longer charming. I am a woman who has given birth to a child. Why are you into me like this? There are many young and beautiful girls outside. Why me?"
He looked up at me and asked gently, "Have you asked Patrick about this?"
He shut me up with just one question.
There was really no answer to love.
But I still didn't want to give up. "I have a relationship with Patrick. But you and me, our relationship is just nothing. We even met because of Patrick."
"Do you really think so?" He raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Wasn't it?"
Shelton lowered his head. I couldn't see his expression clearly, but I heard him chuckle, "Of course not." Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
What did that mean?
Didn't we know each other because of the relationship between Patrick and me?
Before I asked, he said, "When I went back to the Cowell Family, I wanted Ned to lose everything. I took Patrick's company and robbed Sheridan's share. When everything was within my reach, I gave it up for you." He looked up at me with burning eyes. "You tell me, how can I be willing to see you and Patrick get along with each other for the rest my life?"
"That's the reason?"
I was stunned.
As expected, businessmen are calculating gains and losses.
I bit my lip and looked at Shelton. "You don't love me. You have devoted your whole life for revenge. Now even your marriage is caused by hatred..."
"Who said that I am marrying you for taking revenge? I just want you." Shelton looked up, his eyes clear and deep. "I used to be in the muddiest and dirtiest place, but I met the purest and most innocent you. So, I want you."
"What do you mean?"
Looking at Shelton, I was a little confused.
A mocking smile appeared on Shelton's face. Shaking his head, he took out a small pure white box from his pocket and placed it on the table. He said to me, "Take this medicine back and let Glenn eat it. His condition will be better."
"Really?" I asked excitedly.
Scared of that he would go back on his word, I walked over quickly, picked up the box of medicine, and gripped it tightly in my hand.
He nodded and said, "Yes, but this dosage of medicine can only be taken in two weeks at most. After two weeks, he should continue to have a fever. These two weeks are the time I give you to consider about you and me."
"You..."
I knew that Shelton would not give up so easily!
Two weeks, perhaps two weeks was enough.
What if I had already contacted Patrick at that time...
When I was planning like this, Shelton told me, "If Patrick knows about this and he returns here, I won't provide any medicine to you."
"If you think that there is someone in our country who can create the medicine that can cured Glenn when he is still alive, you can go and find one."
When Shelton spoke, his expression was always unruffled.
I knew this kind of calmness is actually his selfconfidence.
He knew very well that if I wanted Glenn to live, I could only find him.
With the medicine in my hand, I said, "Even if I promised you, I will wait for Patrick to come back.
I will tell him everything face to face."
It couldn't be like when Patrick come back, only found that I have already married Shelton. I couldn't let it happen.
That was too absurd.
"Really? What if he came back in a year or two? At that time, I am afraid that Glenn's grave would be green."
His words like a knife stabbing into my heart.
My weakness was Glenn.
But I really couldn't do anything about it. Looking at Shelton, I bit my lip and said, "Then I'll call the police!"
"Oh, do you have any proof that I have put a virus in his body? Or can you prove that there is really any virus in his body?" Shelton maintained a sitting position, looked at me, and said with a smile, "You know, generally in the corpse to test for poison, only the known poison can be detected, the unknown, is not detectable."
He spoke very slowly.
With every words blocked my last hope.
