Chapter 1733
Jeremy shouted, attempting to stop Carter, but Carter had made up his mind.
With all his might, Carter hurled the vial of anti-toxoid test reagent out of the balcony, ensuring that neither party won.
However, Jeremy was unwilling to stand by and watch Carter throwing out the anti-toxoid test reagent. At that moment, he launched himself toward the trajectory of the vial, leaping forward like a sword flying from its scabbard, his entire person seemed to soar with the vial.
Madeline’s heart suddenly leaped as this scene unfolded.
“No! Jeremy…”
Madeline cried out in alarm and ran over to Jeremy.
However, she could not catch up with Jeremy’s speed. She watched as Jeremy jumped down the balcony, trying to catch the vial of anti-toxoid test reagent.
“Jeremy!” Madeline ran hurriedly to the balcony and looked down. She then turned to head downstairs to find Jeremy.
However, when she ran past Carter, he suddenly reached out a hand, grabbing her arm.
“Let go!” Madeline struggled angrily.
Displeasure colored his face. “What did you guys do to her? Where did you hide her?”
Madeline looked Carter in the eyes, unflinching from his suspicious gaze.
“Listen, Carter. Shirley was here initially. Before I’d left, I’d let her bathe, eat, and sleep comfortably. Now that something bad has happened to her, it should be obvious that someone else is behind this. Why should I put up this act with you? Do you think I could’ve predicted that you’ll make this deal with my husband and come here?”
Carter’s brows furrowed at Madeline’s questions.
