Only then did Carlos come to his senses. He said grimly, “I’m going to ask Adam for it. Since Janiya got the poison from him, he must have the antidote.”
“No, don’t!”
I hurriedly stopped him just as he was turning to leave.

“Why?
Carlos looked at me with a puzzled, impatient Look.
I bit my lip and spoke my worries without scruples.
“We can’t tell Adam that Caleb is in critical condition. Otherwise, he might use it as a bargaining chip to take advantage of the Thorn Edge Pack.”
“What? That’s impossible.” Carlos immediately refuted my theory. “The
Thorn Edge Pack is powerful. We wouldn’t be threatened by a mayor of a small town. Adam wouldn’t dare.”
Carlos crossed his arms over his chest and stressed, “Even if the entire Xeric Pack came to his aid, we would fight until we got the antidote.”
Carlos was very confident in the strength of his pack, but his confidence was misplaced.
I said coldly, “Carlos, you obviously don’t know Adam very well. Adam doesn’t care about the lives of the people here at all. If the Alpha of the Thorn Edge Pack died in Roz Town and your men came and killed everyone here, Adam wouldn’t bat an eyelash. He would escape before that happened.”
Carlos fell into stunned silence.
Locking eyes with him, I continued, “If this matter escalates into a war between the two packs, this might make Adam even happier. He’d somehow find a way to benefit from the war.”

Carlos pressed his fingers against his temples and exhaled loudly
“Then what do you think we should do? Hmm?”
After thinking for a while, I said, “Keep this matter under wraps and catch Janiya so that she can’t spread the news. Tell Adam that Caleb has been staying in the hospital to take care of me and doesn’t have time to see him for now. As for the antidote, I’ll find a solution.”
When I first started speaking, Carlos Looked dubious, but by the time I was done, he looked almost impressed with me.
“I didn’t expect you to be so calm and organized,” he mused in pleasant surprise.
I couldn’t help but crack a smile.
It seemed that he believed me.
But Ivy knew me better. She knew that I was far from calm.
Seeing Caleb in so much pain just now, I almost broke down. It was as though the sky was falling.
I felt Like my heart was stabbed countless times by an invisible knife, inflicting a pain so unbearable that I felt like I was going to suffocate.
