Chapter 286 Did Whitney Escape?

Carter kissed me tenderly, his strong heartbeat quickering as we caught our breath.

I pulled away from him, waiting for my emotions to settle before quietly asking. "What are you going to do about Silas?"

Initially, I had planned to keep Silas around to torture him slowly, but now that I knew he was Adam's biological son, I couldn't bring myself to make things difficult for Carter out of respect for the old bonds.

After all, when I was reborn, if it hadn't been for his help, things wouldn't have gone as smoothly.

As a husband and wife, he had given me enough support and understanding, and I too needed to respect his thoughts.

When Carter mentioned Silas, he seemed as if he were holding a hot potato.

Killing him was impossible, but keeping him around was even more dangerous,

"After all, he's family. Silas has to be kept alive, but he's too dangerous. Even if he can't speak properly anymore, he absolutely can't be allowed to leave! So for now, only I know where he is. This way, it won't leak out. I'll slowly tend to his wounds, and when the right moment comes, I'll tell Adam the truth."

At this point, Carter looked at me and asked, "Chloe, will you be upset if I do this?"

"If it were you, I wouldn't be upset."

I nuzzled my face against his neck. "The painful lessons from the past should certainly be remembered, but I cherish my new life even more. Carter, I believe you can handle this."

"Chloe, you don't have to be so nice. If you're not happy, you can argue with me, get mad at me. I want you to live freely and brightly, like a 20-year-old girl, without worrying about anyone else. You don't need to follow the duties of being Mrs. Bolton."

He cupped my face gently, his dark eyes filled with encouragement.

"As you said, cherish the present. You must first be yourself, then Mrs. Bolton or anyone else."

"Carter, are you trying to make me cry?"

He laughed lightly, his hand gently pinching my cheek. "Silly girl, I've told you before, nothing in this world is more important than you. Esther's debt to me can't compare to the future where you'll be the one to bear my children and walk through life with me. I know well what's important. How could I let a promise to someone who's passed harm the woman I've loved for half my life, Mrs. Bolton?"

I was on the verge of tears, truly moved by his words. This man really did place me at the center of his world, pampering me to the core.

"Yeah, I hate Silas! I don't want to let him off easy. I admitted honestly.

"Good, then I won't let him have it easy. I won't treat his hand, and I'll let him be a cripple. I'll event sprinkle some itching powder on him, so when he itches, he won't be able to scratch."
