He could not let Shirley tell Madeline about the hypnosis.
“Eveline, are you chatting with my friend?” Carter approached with a gentle smile and called Shirley his friend.
Shirley raised her eyes and looked at him calmly. She then turned the direction of the wheelchair around and left without saying a word.
With a faint smile on his handsome face, Carter looked as if he did not care, but his eyes were staring at Shirley’s back.
“Miss Brown seems to be in a bad mood,” Madeline said, breaking the silence.
Carter silently retracted his gaze. “What did you guys talk about just now?”
Madeline lifted her clear and alluring eyes to meet Carter’s deep eyes. “ It’s nothing. Miss Brown was here to give us her blessings, but she also said something hypnosis, and I didn’t understand what it meant.”
“Hypnosis?” Carter repeated that word, looking a little confused, then smiled. “I think she might have wanted to tell you that I know hypnosis.”
“Do you? Why don’t I have any impression of that a t all?” Madeline raised her hand and lightly tapped her temple.
“Eveline, are you feeling unwell?” Carter asked with concern.
Madeline frowned. “I’m a little dizzy. I want to rest for a while.”
Carter glanced at his watch. “We’ll be having a light meal with my family at the hotel in the evening.
There’s still some time now, so you should go back to the room and rest for a while. I’ll take care of tomorrow’s wedding.”
“Okay.” Madeline nodded and headed back to her room without speaking further.
As Madeline left, Carter’s attention seemed to be focused on Madeline’s figure for a while, and his sharp eyebrows gradually knitted together as he thought.
He went straight to Shirley’s room and domineeringly pushed the door open.
Shirley, who seemed to know he was coming, gave him a calm look.
