Mommy Alert! The CEO Daddy Won't Stop Courting-Chapter 458: Barrett Carter Fell into the Trap…
When Barrett Carter arrived here after a long journey, he found he was a step late. Without any hesitation, he continued his pursuit of Virgil Davies.
As Virgil Davies and his companions reached the outer city of Whitehill, Barrett Carter finally caught up to Virgil Davies, only to unfortunately fall into the trap Virgil had set...
Upon reaching Whitehill, Virgil Davies secretly moved into a villa prepared in advance by his subordinates. After settling Melody Parker, he immediately set up the trap, waiting for Laurant Foster’s arrival.
The villa had four bedrooms, with the master bedroom luxuriously decorated. Inside, Virgil’s clothes hung, and he took a pill from his sleeve, placed it into a box, a cunning smile appearing on his face...
At nightfall, Barrett Carter quietly and silently sneaked into the villa, kicked open the master bedroom door, and heard someone showering in the bathroom.
He looked around the room and saw nothing of Melody Parker’s belongings.
He quietly backed out, opened the side bedroom door, and immediately saw Melody Parker sitting on the bed.
Her cold gaze glanced at the intruding Barrett Carter, then returned to look out into the endless night.
Barrett Carter felt a suffocating heartbreak.
"Miss!"
He strode in, grabbing Melody Parker, "Miss, I’ll take you away."
Melody Parker looked at him coldly, "Who are you?"
Barrett Carter’s hand shook as he gripped Melody Parker’s arm, "Miss, I’m Barrett Carter. I’ve come to rescue you."
Melody Parker coldly replied, "Leave; I don’t know you!"
Barrett Carter felt as if his heart was being cut open; Miss no longer recognized him.
He considered knocking Melody Parker out to take her away but remembered the masked woman’s words.
Miss has been poisoned and needs the antidote, which should be with Virgil Davies.
He would kill Virgil Davies to find the antidote and give it to Miss.
Barrett Carter softly said to Melody Parker, "Miss, I’ll get you the antidote."
Saying that, he backed out of the room, again pushed open the master bedroom door, and saw Virgil Davies’s clothes hanging on a rack.
He immediately went over to feel around the pockets, finding nothing.
He opened the cabinet searching everywhere, suddenly noticing a box, which he opened immediately.
Inside lay a purple pill.
Could this be the antidote? He looked around, not seeing a trace of Virgil Davies.
He took the box and returned to Melody Parker’s room.
He took out the pill, intending to give it to Melody Parker.
But what if the pill wasn’t the antidote? 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎
No, he must try it first.
He broke off a quarter of the pill and placed it on his tongue, but soon he collapsed weakly in front of Melody Parker.
Damn! This pill turned out to be fake!
Fortunately, he hadn’t given it to Miss; he struggled to get up.
Just then, the door opened, and Virgil Davies entered with several subordinates.
"So it’s you, the bodyguard? Not Laurant Foster?"
As soon as Virgil Davies reached the outer city, he had his subordinates and loyal followers set up an antidote trap, aiming to capture Laurant Foster and the entire group of officers, to eliminate them completely.
Since everyone knew after William Glover’s death that Melody Parker was poisoned, and the antidote was in his hands.
To save Melody Parker, one must find the antidote, Virgil Davies intentionally used fake pills to deceive Laurant Foster.
But regrettably, his fake pill trap failed to catch Kaleb, whom he hated to the core, instead catching an irrelevant little bodyguard—Barrett Carter.
Moreover, this lone man, alone daring to trespass his villa, was fearless of death.
Barrett Carter glared fiercely at Virgil Davies, "Virgil Davies, I advise you to hand over the antidote immediately!"
"Haha, antidote?" Virgil Davies sneered.
"Are you asking for your master’s antidote or yours? Haha!"
Virgil Davies waved a large hand, and his subordinates took the opportunity to seize the helpless Barrett Carter and tie him up.
Though Barrett Carter was powerless, he stood with a stubborn stance.
His cold, murderous gaze locked onto Virgil Davies as he interrogated, "Virgil Davies, you despicable, shameless scoundrel!"
Virgil Davies’s face darkened with a chilling and frightening smile.
He approached Barrett Carter and spoke coldly, "Kneel."
Barrett Carter remained unmoved.
Virgil Davies’s subordinates immediately acted, one pressing on Barrett’s shoulder while another kicked him down to kneel.
They further restrained Barrett, forcing him to maintain a kneeling position, unable to move.
Barrett Carter, physically powerless, struggled with all his might but couldn’t escape their restraint.
Throughout his years, what had he not faced?
His body was immune to hundreds of poisons; this pill alone rendered him powerless...
He glared intensely at Virgil Davies, a hatred indescribable boiling inside.
Seeing this scene, Virgil Davies felt content.
Standing tall beside Barrett Carter, he sneered down, "What are you, daring to come before me to rescue someone? It seems you truly have a death wish!"
He meticulously laid out the fake antidote trap to capture Laurant Foster, preventing any obstruction in his future actions.
But this ignorant little bodyguard barged in, disrupting his plans significantly.
Having faced successive misfortunes, with the soon-to-receive William Glover’s assets frozen, forced to come to Whitehill early, all these events fueled Virgil Davies’s anger.
Now, with his plan once again jeopardized, Virgil Davies was utterly infuriated.
He stared coldly at Barrett Carter, commanding, "Beat him! Beat him heavily!"
"Yes!" Virgil’s subordinates responded, immediately punching and kicking the defenseless Barrett Carter.
Virgil Davies pulled over a chair and sat watching.
Only when Barrett was beaten bloody, lying almost lifeless on the ground, did Virgil finally halt his subordinates, "Alright, no need to continue."
Seeing Barrett covered in blood, Virgil Davies’s mood gradually improved.
He rose from his chair, crouching beside Barrett, saying, "Little bodyguard, there’s a way to heaven you refuse to take, hell’s door is closed yet you barged in. All of this is your own fate; you can’t blame anyone else."
Barrett Carter glared harshly at Virgil Davies, his dark eyes filled with despair.
He had let down his treasure, let down Miss.
Virgil Davies looked at Barrett, mocking, "Ha! Since you’re so loyal to your master, how about letting her see you once more, or what, you want your master to personally send you off? Hmm?"
Without waiting for Barrett to respond, he graciously said, "If that’s the case, then I’ll fulfill that for you."
With this, he motioned for someone to bring Melody Parker out.
Seeing Melody approach, Barrett’s eyes filled with remorse, "Miss..."
He struggled mightily, attempting to rise from the ground.
But lacking strength and heavily injured, just getting up from the ground was a near-impossible task.
