“Mr. Abel,” Alana was frowning, and she yelled, “it’s painful!”
He pushed her away as if he were trash. “I thought you didn’t know what pain was.”
She remained silent because she did not know what he found out; all she could do was keep her mouth shut.
“Tell me,” he said furiously, “why did you disguise yourself and sneak into the Ryker Residence that day?”
She looked down and bit her lips.
“Abel, what do you mean?” Benjamin asked in doubt, “Are you saying that she was at the party?”
“Yes,” he answered, “I suspect that she did something back then.”
“Then, Emma…”
“It’s not me!” Alane yelled, “I’m not that capable! She was being shot, and I didn’t even know how to use a gum!”
“Then someone must be behind you!” Abel asked in a lowered voice, “Was it Adam?”
She trembled upon hearing his words. How did he guess that Adam was the one?
But it was impossible for her to admit it, unless she did not want to live anymore. Adam just let her out of prison and is currently giving her heavy training. He promised to make her an assassin. And the basic requirement was to have a strong mentality. She was sent here to get used to humiliation. And it was unlucky for her to run into Abel on her first day.
“Mr. Abel, you’re overthinking.” She looked down and said, “I don’t know Mr. Adam at all.”
“Then, why were you with his bodyguards the other day?” “Why were you wearing their uniform?”
“I just wanted to get in and look at you; do you believe me?
