437 The Medicine Couldn’t Save You
The feelings between people were very magical. Sometimes, people tried their best to gain a certain relationship, but they might feel more uncomfortable. When they let it go, they would find a better and relaxed feeling to have unexpected gain.
Steven found that when he treated Bella as a relative, he could feel her happiness.
The relaxation on Steven’s face fell to the bottom of Charles’s eyes without any omission. If it were in the past, he would be very willing to see Steven withdraw, but now...
Compared with other people, he was more willing to let Steven accompany Bella in the time when he was not there. At least he would be more assured if he knew the person.
All the meeting content during the day was to arrange a press conference for Martin. Of course, to the public, it was still a personal press conference of Martin, not for E&B.
Therefore, it was necessary to be more meticulous, so as not to be discovered by the people that it was a conference led by E&B.
Steven’s biggest worry was that Nick would act at the press conference. He said, “Nick has not moved yet. This is not like his style. Tomorrow E&B is the key point, we should be always careful."
Bella wondered, "Shouldn't he tackle Charles? Why does he want to hurt E&B?"
Charles said, "He is not aimed at E&B, but you and the child. Tomorrow's release will be very important to E&B. If he breaks the press conference, and even makes the conference show counter-effects, you will be stimulated and will arise fetal movement. It will be dangerous for both you and your child."
"What if he couldn’t stimulate me?" Bella said, "He is too distorted."
Steven shook his head. "Only in this way can he achieve his goal, he will retreat afterward."
Bella’s face became pale, holding Charles's hand tightly, "I will not let him harm my baby, no matter what happens, tomorrow, I will not be angry. Charles, no matter what happens, you will not let people hurt E&B, right?"
"Of course!" Charles held back her hand, softly comforting, "As long as you are cooperative, I will handle everything well."
"Okay." Bella agreed, she just needed to be cooperative, how would it be difficult? But she did not expect that, at some point, obedience was really difficult.
In the evening, Charles made dumplings with vegetables for Bella, and waited until she slept, then he went to the study room to handle official duties.
There were too many things to be handed over. If he couldn’t wake up, the throne would definitely be inherited by Bryant and helped by Roy, and the company would be taken care of by Ziv until Bryant became an adult...
Each item must be placed in the will.
And most importantly, Bella wished to have a wedding in Prague. He had already begun to design, no matter who she would go with in the future, the person there would give her a wedding he designed for her.
When Ziv came in, Charles was writing a wedding plan. He wrote a long vow of marriage, and the groom had to read all the vows when he was kneeling. He thought that if he didn’t even want to say a five-minute vow, he would not match his Bell.
Ziv said, "The lord, Miss Katherine wants to see you."
Charles did not look up but say, "I have no time."
Ziv continued, "She asked to open a press conference tomorrow, and said that since then there has been no chance to meet you. She has a few words to say to you face to face."
Charles finally stopped typing. "Tomorrow's press conference? Why?"
"She said that Martin's press conference will lead some attention. Although she is willing to clarify, she does not want to let more people know her unbearable side." Ziv said, "I am afraid that she will change her mind before the press conference. The lord, do you need to stabilize her first?"
It was a good thing that Katherine could clarify, he didn’t want to delay it anymore.
“Okay, let’s go and see her.” Charles agreed.
Katherine did not expect Charles would really come, she burst into tears with excitement.
There was a fishy smell in the whole room and the room did not turn on the lights.
Charles gestured Ziv to open the lights, but Katherine screamed, "Don't, don't turn on the lights..."
However, at the moment her voice fell, the lights in the room were already on.
Katherine quickly shrank to the back of the curtain and screamed, "Don't come over, don't come over... just let me see you..." Her voice gradually weakened. "I just want to see you.”
But she couldn't hide herself at all.
There was a fish scale under the curtain, her feet that touched the ground were like the fish tail divided into two halves which looked very strange.
The light fell through the curtains to her hand holding the curtain, and even the five fingers were covered with scales.
Charles’s took a bottle out of his pocket and handed it to Ziv, “Give her.”
Ziv took the bottle and went in front of her and handed it to her. "Miss Katherine, this is the antidote."
Katherine, like a drug addict, rushed to pour it into her mouth with a hurry and panic.
The effect of the antidote was significant. After ten minutes, the feet that were mutated on the ground returned to normal.
Katherine walked out of the curtains until the scales on her hands disappeared.
Her face was very pale, but the facial features were still as beautiful as before.
She did not approach Charles, because she knew deeply that she didn’t match him.
She stood far away, looked at him, tried to snuffle, and straightened her back with the last pride, looking at him, sobbed, "Thank you, give me the last self-esteem."
Charles stood in the same place and looked at her, and there was a rare trace of grief in his eyes. This person, like himself, was dying.
Perhaps in the sympathy that was about to die, he had a rare kind voice. "Is there something you want to say to me?"
This was the first time he did not speak with a cold voice after knowing that Katherine had lied to him. At that moment, Katherine cried again. She kept saying thank you.
She couldn’t say any other words.
She did not think that Charles could let her feel his gentleness again before she died, although she did not know that the gentleness of Charles to Bella was something she could never imagine.
But now, he was not hostile to her, he could talk to her as he used to, she was very satisfied, very content.
People would tell truth before they died, Katherine whispered. "It’s Nick, who let me hold a press conference tomorrow. He wants to kidnap Bella’s mother when you all concentrate on the press conference. He wants to use this to stimulate her, and let her abort."
Snap!
There seemed to be something cracking in the air.
Katherine was frightened, and she couldn't help but step back and looked at Charles, shaking her head. "Nick let me do this. I..."
Charles said, "I know. Thank you for telling me."
His expression did not change, so did his voice, as if the floor was not broken by him.
His thank was very casually. Katherine seemed to have got the most valuable gift. She smiled and cried. "This is, you said thank you to me for the first time, although it was for the sake of Bella, I am still very touched."
She said, "Thank you for giving me the antidote. Thank you for coming to see me. Thank you! Thank you!"
Charles said, "Don't thank me, this medicine can't save you."
