Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife chapter 1816
“Can’t I have a baby without speaking with him?” she asked with a sluggish tone, and her expression was
nonchalant.
Adam frowned. “Can you speak to me properly? “
“Hah,” Shirley chuckled, “you seem to be the one who refuses to talk properly, Adam.”
Adam was speechless for a moment.
He had indeed given Shirley a hard time during this period.
However, that was due to her actions and attitude, both of which he had found very disappointing.
He remembered just how beautiful, brave, and strong his sister had been once.
However, she had become a cold—blooded, inhumane tool to harm people.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe simply could not accept this version of her.
“I know what you’re going to say, Adam. If I cannot keep this child, so be it. It’s not like I care, anyway.”
Shirley’s tone was one of disdain. She sounded so indifferent, as though she was discussing garbage disposal.
“It’s impossible for me to be with him in this lifetime. Even if this child is born without any defects, I don’t want the
child. The child will only be a burden.”
“ ” Listening to her words gave Adam a headache. ” You’re not being honest with yourself, Shirley.”
“That’s what I honestly think,” Shirley confirmed without a second thought, coldly looking at Adam.
“Did you really think I’d change? I won’t. I’m no longer the little girl I used to be, Adam. I can never be a good
person again. I’m even considering using this unborn child as leverage against Carter.”
“I don’t want to owe you anything either. Since you want to help Eveline and the others so badly, I can fulfil your
wish, but there is one condition.”
Shirley requested.
Adam knew what Shirley would propose, but he refused to accept that she had become this person who cannot be
turned back.
“I want you to heal the scar on my face. Even if it’s not possible to heal it, I am willing to undergo plastic surgery.”
“You’re… really crazy.”
There was nothing else Adam could say.
“I don’t need your help. I’ll create the anti-toxoid test reagent on my own!”
Adam refused to continue the conversation with Shirley. He had thought she had changed her mind, but she
remained just as obsessed as before.
“Oh, by the way, how far along am I in my pregnancy?” Shirley looked at Adam who turned around.
Adam paused. Despite his reluctance to care for Shirley anymore, he responded, “Four weeks have just passed.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Four weeks?” Shirley laughed knowingly. This was the result of Carter’s rage that night.
Since her return, they had only done it once.
The incident had happened ages ago. Even then, Shirley still remembered. Carter, however, had probably forgotten
about it long ago.
Cathy was preparing lunch when Adam entered the house with a dark expression. Cathy, concerned, approached
Adam and learned that Shirley intended to manipulate Carter with the child inside her womb. Cathy was baffled.
She looked out the window and saw that Shirley was still sitting by the flowerbed.
Cathy could see the smile from Shirley’s side
profile. Somehow, she felt that it would not happen.
“Cathy, please pay extra attention to her. She might do something crazy, and there’s nothing I could do about her.”
Adam sighed with frustration and headed back to his laboratory in misery.
Cathy turned off the induction cooker and stepped out into the garden.
She observed as Shirley closed her eyes to enjoy the breeze that was blowing in the warm spring weather.
Carefully, Cathy approached her.
However, Shirley spoke up before Cathy got close. “Can you… help me with something?”
