It depends on my mood.” Abel carried the bowl and went out.
“Abel!” Emmeline yelled, “You cheated! You said you’ll let me go after I finish eating!”
“When did you hear that I’ll let you go?” Abel turned around and sneered. “I only said after you’re full, you have the strength to endure my torture. When did I say I’ll release you?”
“Abel, you’re despicable!” Emmeline sniffled with reddish eyes. “If I had known that, I wouldn’t have listened to you!”
“Hmph!” Abel sneered. “Think about my situation last night. At least you’re full. Just be content!”
He turned to go out again when Emmeline’s phone rang on the side table. He saw that the call was from Benjamin.
Emmeline saw it too.
“Hey, can you answer the phone for me? Benjamin must be looking for me urgently.”
Abel put down the bowl and picked up the phone with the speakerphone on.
Benjamin’s gentle voice immediately came from the phone. “Emma, are you okay?”
Emma? He called her so intimately.
Abel pursed his mouth.
“Ah!” Emmeline cried loudly. “Ben, come and save me! Abel abused me!”
Benjamin was instantly dumbfounded over there. What! Abel abused Emma?
“Emma, don’t cry! Tell me, what’s going on?”
“Abel tied me to a chair! I was so uncomfortable! He said he would torture me…”
Before Emmeline finished speaking, Benjamin hung up the phone. It was conceivable that Benjamin wanted to rush to The Precipice.
“You still don’t let me go?” Emmeline smiled smugly at Abel. “Benjamin is great enough to deal with you.”
