Husband

“Do you have a better idea?” Vera’s expression showed that she wanted to make a last–ditch effort. 

Ramon did not dare to reply. Indeed, when a woman got ruthless, there was nothing for a man to do. 

“I’ll take care of him tonight. If he can survive, tonight, the poison will be completely cured.‘ As Vera spoke, she gave Ramon a meaningful look. She could not leave. She still had Neil here. She hoped that Ramon could leave safely. 

Ramon was obviously not that kind of person. When his family was in trouble, he had to take responsibility! How could he leave first? 

I’ll stay and take care of Carlos too.” Adam refused to let go of Ramon. “If Carlos doesn’t survive, I will kill you.” 

Vera said, “There’s no need for so many people. Dayton and I will just stay here.” Dayton could still help Vera, but Adam would only cause more trouble. 

Of course, Adam did not agree. Because Dayton was supporting Vera, Adam reluctantly stood guard outside the door. 

At the same time, Adam secretly instructed the bodyguards who were secretly watching James. If anything happened to Carlos, the bodyguards would capture James and the two children. 

None of them could escape! 

The long night of taking care of a seriously ill patient was the most unbearable. 

Vera carried Neil and finally coaxed him to sleep. She was about to hand Neil over to Dayton to send Neil to another room to sleep, but Neil woke up as soon as he left Vera’s arms. When Neil woke up, he cried. Vera could only continue to carry Neil. 

Dayton was heartbroken when saw Neil and Vera like this. 

Back then, when Vera was taking care of Carlos, who was still in a vegetative state, she could not sleep soundly all night. After taking a nap, she got up to check on the situation. 

“Neil isn’t usually squeamish. He might have been frightened tonight, so he can’t leave you.” Due to his status, Dayton couldn’t directly ask Vera why she didn’t recognize Carlos when she returned. 

Wealthy families were complicated, and now Carlos wanted to marry Averie. As a servant, Dayton should pretend to not know. 

“Dayton, there are no outsiders here. I want to know the truth. Is Neil’s illness really innate?” Vera asked. 

Dayton replied, “Yes, back in the day…” Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

Even though there was no one else in the room, Dayton still subconsciously lowered his voice and said, “That year, there was a sudden fire. Mrs. Monroe and the two children didn’t manage to escape. Only Mr. Neil was born prematurely and was saved by Miss Powell” 

“You’re saying that Averie saved Neil?” Vera frowned. She felt that things were not that simple. 

Vera thought, “That day, Averie was clearly here to kill the four of them! That vicious woman actually changed her mind at the last minute? This did not make sense unless there was something else going on!” 

Dayton nodded and replied, “That’s right. I’m not too sure about the exact situation since I wasn’t there. Many servants were on leave that day. The villa was empty. Only the ones guarding the front door and the cook were still there. 

“According to Miss Powell, she specially came to visit the pregnant Mrs. Monroe. In the end, Miss Powell encountered a fire the moment she arrived. The fire was very strong, and she only saved Neil. She was even injured because of this. Mr. Monroe often said that she was the Monroe family’s benefactor…” 

Dayton realized that he had said something he shouldn’t have and quickly shut his mouth. 

Vera snorted coldly and said, “No one suspected that Averie was the one who started the fire?” 

Dayton hurriedly waved his hand and lowered his voice even more. “So what if they are suspicious? Mr. Monroe believes in Miss Powell…” 

Vera suddenly felt that her question was very stupid. Since Carlos was the one who instructed Averie to burn them to death, how could Averie leave any evidence behind? 

With Carlos’s ability, of course, he would handle it well! 

Dayton continued, “Mrs. Monroe and the two children passed away. Mr. Monroe was still very and depressed for a long time.” 

‘Sad?‘ Vera sneered in her heart. Carlos pretended to be sad for others to see! 

After all, in this fake era, who wouldn’t want to let themselves look better? 

sad 

When Dayton saw that Vera did not seem to believe it, he felt very upset. “If Mrs. Monroe and the two children can survive, Mr. Monroe will be so happy. Who knows…”
