Mommy Alert! The CEO Daddy Won't Stop Courting-Chapter 508 Whitehill Has No Treasure (1)

Tannis still couldn’t develop the antidote.

Moreover, the pain relief medication he developed, after working once, completely lost its effectiveness.

Subsequent pain relief medications he researched were directly ineffective.

It seemed that Melody Parker’s body had developed antibodies, rendering the pain relief medications useless, or perhaps the poison devoured all the drugs entering her body, causing them to lose their intended effect.

When the pain struck, Melody Parker could only endure it silently.

Every time this happened, Mark would torture himself for Melody Parker...

But even so, when he couldn’t see, when he was caught off guard, Melody Parker would still hurt herself.

Watching the girl endure torment time and again, seeing her body weaken day by day, her life slipping away, Mark’s heart ached immensely...

After enduring countless tortures, every time Melody Parker awoke to see her father’s and her two babies’ eyes red from crying, she made a decision.

She decided to seal off her palace, not allowing her father and two babies to come see her again until the poison was eradicated!

Though she knew her decision was cruel and unkind, she still chose to do so.

Because she didn’t want her father and her babies to see her miserable, painful state every time, powerless to do anything but suffer with her.

No, watching her in pain, their hearts must ache even more, right?

When Melody Parker shared her thoughts, they were immediately rejected.

But with her resolute attitude, in the end, Muir and the babies reluctantly agreed to her request.

But they couldn’t rest easy with her, they insisted Melody Parker keep someone by her side to ensure her safety.

Melody Parker agreed but didn’t keep any of the three with her as they wished; instead, she left Mark to stay...

That night, Melody Parker stood in front of the window, gazing at the fallen leaves outside with a sense of loss, "Adrian, where are you? Will I get to see you before I die?..."

Now, her body was worsening by the day.

She wasn’t afraid of dying, but afraid that after her death, no one would take care of her two babies.

Mark approached Melody Parker and spoke gently, "Baby Mama, what are you thinking about?"

Melody Parker turned her head, looking at Mark.

Thinking of how many times she had scratched and bitten Mark these days, Melody Parker apologized, "Mark, I’m sorry, I..."

Mark shook his head, interrupting Melody Parker, "There’s no need; you’re not doing it willingly."

"Thank you!" Melody Parker gratefully expressed, then turned her head back to gaze out of the window.

Mark quietly stood by Melody Parker’s side, accompanying her, watching over her.

Who knows how much time had passed, or what came to mind, but crystal tears rolled down Melody Parker’s cheeks.

Seeing this, Mark couldn’t help but feel a pang in his heart, and spoke out of concern, "Melody, what’s wrong?"

The familiar name "Melody" touched a chord in Melody Parker’s heart.

In an instant, her tears flowed more fervently.

She turned to look at Mark, her eyes misty with excitement, "Adrian, is that you? You’re really alive? You came to see me?"

With that, Melody Parker rushed over, hugging Mark tightly around the waist.

Mark: "..."

She mistook him for Adrian Davies, didn’t she?

Lately, tortured by poison, her health had been deteriorating, and her spirit was gradually declining, and moments like these of confusion frequently occurred.

If it could comfort her heart, being mistaken was okay.

Mark stood still, allowing Melody Parker to embrace him. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Feeling the warmth from the body she held, Melody Parker became even more excited, "Adrian, you’re really alive, that’s wonderful!"

She looked up, her tearful eyes staring at Mark.

No, in her eyes, she was looking at Adrian, her Adrian.

With trembling hands, Melody Parker touched Mark’s face, crying uncontrollably as she apologized, "Adrian, I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have hurt you! Even if controlled, I shouldn’t have hurt you!"

Mark looked at Melody Parker, speaking in a deep voice, "It’s not your fault; you were under control."

"No, how can it not be my fault? You should blame me! I was the one who stabbed you time and again, I pushed you off the cliff myself!" Melody Parker extended her hands in front of Mark, "Look, with these hands, with these very hands!"

She stared fiercely at her hands, "Adrian, you don’t know how much I wanted to cut off these hands when I came to, how much I wanted to follow you..."

Listening to her words pained Mark even more.

Sobbing, Melody Parker suddenly laughed.

Her face, covered with tears, bloomed into an exquisite smile.

Looking at Mark like this, she sincerely said, "You’re alive, that’s great!"

After saying this, she tiptoed, trying to kiss Mark’s lips.

Heaven knows how much Mark wanted to lean in...

But he couldn’t.

The person she wanted to kiss wasn’t him.

Besides, when she came to, she’d surely regret it.

As Melody Parker’s lips were about to touch Mark’s, he stepped aside.

Simultaneously, Melody Parker realized who she was facing and smelled a scent that didn’t belong to Adrian.

She withdrew in panic, lifted her tearstained smiling face, stammering an apology, "Sorry, I mistook you for someone else."

"Baby Mama, it’s okay, you need to live strong for your babies and the people you love."

At that moment, he envied Adrian Davies, wishing he could take his place.

A week had passed, and everyone had reached their limits.

In that week, they tried everything but still couldn’t pry open Virgil Davies’s mouth.

They couldn’t watch Melody Parker continue like this, couldn’t watch her endure torment, unsure of when she might die.

They were defeated; they compromised.

As long as it could save Melody Parker’s life, relieve her from suffering, even if it meant making a deal with the devil, so be it.

As long as there was a glimmer of hope, they had to try.

That day, Muir went to the prison, looked at the nearly unrecognizable Virgil Davies, and coldly spoke, "Tell me, what will it take for you to hand over the antidote?"

Virgil Davies laughed, "Heh, I knew you’d come to find me."

These people cared too much about trivial family ties and love, so they were destined to fall into his hands.

Muir didn’t want to waste words with Virgil Davies, coldly said, "Name your conditions!"

Virgil Davies grinned, his scarred face even more sinister and smug, "I want the treasure, then to leave safely."
