The Amazing Son in Law The Charismatic Charlie Wade novel Chapter 524

Chapter 524
When Daniel had been brought out of the basement, it was already too late for him. His lungs and heart had already been infected and damaged by the poisonous gas, while his leg injury had caused too much blood loss.
Maisie’s gaze shifted, but she did not utter a single word.
Nolan glanced at her. “I’ve explained everything to the police for you. You fired the shot in self-defense, and because you didn’t plan to kill him, you only shot him in the leg.”
She smiled. “Then what if I wanted to kill him?”
Nolan squinted his eyes and kept quiet.
Maisie turned her head and looked out of the window. “He’s the mastermind who plotted the accident from three years ago, and Rowena was the one who put it into action. Although I wanted to shoot him in the head at the time, seeing him getting the retribution that he deserved, I didn’t feel compelled to do so all of a sudden.”
“Zee.” Nolan leaned forward to look at her and turned her face to make her face him. “Promise me, no matter what you do in the future, you’re not allowed to put your own life at risk.”
Maisie was stunned for a split second and then
smiled. “Then what about you?”
He did not speak. !!
She then asked, “Nolan, you blocked the bullet for me three years ago, but have you ever thought about what I would do if something like that were to happen to you?”
Nolan rested his forehead on hers and said in a low voice, “Then we aren’t allowed to get hurt in the future, okay?”
Maisie pecked his lips, and when she succeeded in doing so, she pulled up the blanket to cover half of her face, leaving the pair of watery eyes blinking at him.” I’m hungry now, and I want to eat something.”
The corners of his lips rose as he asked helplessly.” What do you want to eat?”
“I want to eat some Spanish food with rice.” Maisie touched her stomach and felt even more hungry than when she woke up. She wanted to eat rice now.
Nolan went back and made a nutritious meal for her, including winter melon pork ribs soup, beef stew, poor man’s potato, paella, and caramel flan.
Maisie sat cross-legged on the bed obediently, waiting for him to feed her.
Quincy suddenly appeared outside the door and was surprised when he saw that Maisie had woken up. “M s. Vanderbilt, you… You’ve woken up?”
Maisie was opening her mouth to eat the paella that
Nolan was feeding her. “It’s about time for me to wake up after being asleep for so long.”
“Why are you here?” Nolan asked Quincy.
Quincy replied, “Elder Master Goldmann asked me to come to you. You announced that you’ve been infected with the virus. He is worried about you.”
Maisie was taken aback.
‘Did he announce it? But this was to impeach Daniel and bring Prince Roger’s scheme of interfering in the election to an end. Daniel is already dead.
‘Not to mention that the virus incident hasn’t caused a global trauma at present. The people only know that the epidemic that broke out
30 years ago was manmade.
However, now that Nolan announced to the world that he is the only carrier of the virus, even if the sleeper virus won’t be passed on through human-to-human contact, not everyone will dare to be in touch with people who are infected with the virus.’
Nolan could see what she was worried about and rubbed the top of her hair. “I don’t care what other people think as long as you don’t care about my condition.”
“I care.” Maisie lowered her head. “Nolan, I care a lot about it.”
Nolan was flustered, and his lips were tightly pursed.
She directly met his solemn gaze. “You should know that by now. If it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t have gotten infected, so I wouldn’t just stand here and watch as you die.”
He gave off a smile. “Okay.”
Quincy and Nolan left the ward, and Quincy caught up to him in an instant. “Sir, you haven’t told Ms.
Vanderbilt that you…”
‘Have less than three months left.
‘He wasn’t wearing any protective gear when he broke into the laboratory to save Ms. Vanderbilt. This has caused the virus in his body to spread even more rapidly, and his condition has advanced into the third stage of the disease.
‘While Ms. Vanderbilt was in a coma in the past few days, he’s been staying in the hospital to suppress his symptoms. Now that it’s come to this point, I’m afraid that even Strix can’t do anything about his condition anymore…
