Don't Try to Escape, My Wife!

Chapter 1662 Too Inhuman

Chad Shaffer did not force Mrs. Shaffer to answer, and he knew she would figure it out sooner or later.

The car was quiet for a while and the atmosphere was somewhat depressing.

The driver drove quietly as if he was just a tool man.

The car soon arrived at Morty's house.

Morty's house was brightly lit and he was standing outside the door to greet Chad Shaffer personally. It

was obvious that Chad Shaffer had informed him in advance.

Just as the car was about to stop, Mrs. Shaffer suddenly asked in a low voice, "Dad, why do I have to

talk to Mr. Morty? Wouldn't we have a better chance of winning if we confessed to Mr. Hill?"

"Mr. Hill is old, and sooner or later the world will be Mr. Morty's. Don't you see? The Shaffer family was

the touchstone given to Mr. Morty by Mr. Hill. The quicker and better Mr. Morty solves the problem, the

more satisfied Mr. Hill will be, and the higher the national outcry will be when the time comes. Don't you

think I don't know what Cody Shaffer has been doing for over a year! He's been canvassing for votes

everywhere, and he's eyeing Mr. Hill's seat, isn't he? That bastard! How can he deserve it?"

Chad Shaffer finally spoke up what he was thinking, and Mrs. Shaffer broke out in a cold sweat.

It turned out that Chad Shaffer knew everything, and so did Mr. Hill.

They were just stepping stones for Mr. Morty's rise to the top, which was why they had survived until

now.

The funny thing was that Cody Shaffer really thought he was quite capable and kept being proud of

himself.

It turned out to be a trap from the start.

Cody Shaffer thought he had set Elvis up to take all the blame, and he could steal everything behind

his back to pave his own way. But Mr. Hill knew it all along and was just using it to train Morty.

Sure enough, Morty and Samuel grew close along the way, and Tim and Samuel were related. Now

with the Mason family's sailing line, when the time came, as long as Samuel was Morty's man, the

Mason family's sailing line was ready to do anything for Morty whenever he needed it, such as

smuggling supplies to overseas battlefields without anyone knowing. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

Now she was wondering if it was true or not that Jacob was missing on the overseas battlefield.

Mrs. Shaffer thought about it one by one, while her back was wet with cold sweat.

Mr. Hill was the shrewdest one.

So what was she struggling with now?

What was she still hesitating about?

Chad Shaffer was right. Joy was her daughter, and she had doted on her enough for so many years.

Since she had done something wrong, she should take responsibility for it herself.

What she owed Cara, she feared she would never have the chance to make up for it in her lifetime. But

if she could exchange it for peace for the rest of Cara's life, she had nothing to fear!

Mrs. Shaffer was suddenly enlightened.

When Chad Shaffer saw her expression, he knew she had figured it out.

He pushed the door open and got out of the car, with Mrs. Shaffer following behind him.

Morty quickly stepped forward and greeted Chad Shaffer when he saw him.

"Uncle Shaffer, what's wrong with you coming over here in the middle of the night? My father..."

"It has nothing to do with Mr. Hill. I just wanted to come and see my granddaughter."

Chad Shaffer's words caused Morty to slightly freeze.

"Granddaughter?"

He didn't react for a moment.

Mrs. Shaffer could not control herself and said excitedly, "Cara, we've come to see Cara."

"Oh, all right, but she's not awake yet. I don't know if Blair will let anyone visit her."

Morty never interfered with the treatment of patients and entrusted Blair with full authority, so he really

had to ask Blair about this.

Blair had only been asleep for a short time when he received the call from Morty. When he was

awakened by the call, he was clearly in a bad mood.

"Mr. Morty, what's wrong with you? I've only just fallen asleep and it's not even dawn yet. What are you

disturbing me for?"

Blair was angry at being woken up.

Blair, Samuel, and Tim were the only ones in the world who dared to talk to him like that.

Morty said helplessly, "I didn't want to. But Mrs. Shaffer and Uncle Shaffer want to see Cara, and I need

to ask your opinion."

"What do they want to see? She's about to die. What's the point of seeing her? Just let them wait and

go straight back to the morgue to collect her body."

As soon as Blair said this, Mrs. Shaffer almost couldn't stand, while Luna hurriedly helped her from

behind.

"Miss, you can't fall down."

Mrs. Shaffer held Luna's hand tightly and said in a trembling voice, "Mr. Blair, I know it's my fault, but I

just want to see her. Even if I can just see her outside, okay?"

Her humble voice made Blair less angry.

He had also heard that the only reason Cara had survived and even survived to this day was that Mrs.

Shaffer had sent her away back then.

For that reason, Blair calmed down a bit.

"You can see her, but not for too long. Maybe you could talk to her about her life, tell her you're her

mother and how much you've missed her all these years. Right now she's in a really bad way. Your

husband drew too much blood from her, and she almost died. Plus she had been poisoned by

venomous insects earlier, and after losing too much blood, that poison started to take effect again, and

now she was down to her last breath. I have informed Morgan to come back to detoxify her, but I don't

know if she will make it until Morgan arrives. So you'd better be able to inspire her will to live, or else no

one can save her."

Blair's words made Mrs. Shaffer howl.

How could her little girl be suffering so much?

Chad Shaffer obviously didn't expect it to be so bad either.

"What did Cody Shaffer do when he drew her blood?"

"What else could he have done? Uncle Shaffer, you've been around Mr. Hill for a long time. It would be

disrespectful of me if I spoke badly, but do you really not know what your son is doing? He has no

intention of keeping Cara alive! He even wanted to turn Cara into a mutant. Once her blood is

completely drained, he won't care if she's dead or alive by then."

Hearing what Blair said, Chad Shaffer's face was flushed with fury, while a flame of anger rose from the

bottom of Mrs. Shaffer's eyes.

'Cody Shaffer!’

'You're too inhuman!'

'Cara is at least your daughter!’

'You knew she was and you still did this to her. What are my daughter and I to you?'

'Since you're such a bastard, then you can go to hell.'

Mrs. Shaffer's eyes suddenly turned cold.

She hung up Blair's phone, looked at Morty, and said very calmly, ''Mr. Morty, I have something to say

to you. Is it all right if I talk to you alone?"

Morty was slightly stunned, but also seemed to have guessed what was going on. He glanced at Chad

Shaffer and saw that he did not refuse, so he nodded.

Mrs. Shaffer and Morty went to the study and talked for a long time, while Luna was outside, restless

and anxious, but Mrs. Shaffer still did not come out.

It was more than an hour later that Mrs. Shaffer came out of Morty's study. However, it was as if she

had been reborn and even her face lit up, which made Luna feel as if she had seen the confident and

self-assured young lady of over thirty years ago.

For a moment, Luna froze. Chad Shaffer closed his eyes and dropped his hands in dismay.

He knew that the demise of the Shaffer family had become a foregone conclusion.
