Abel felt that he was dying.
“Several other books were also destroyed simultaneously, including Wraith Petal. My father had studied it so that I could detoxify it.”
Luca said, “That’s not right. It was an ancient formula that the Adelmar family destroyed. How did it come out now? And it’s not even used by the Adelmar family?”
“That’s what Emma and I are confused about.” Waylon said, “If these things were to spread, they would harm people.”
Luca lowered his head and said, “Yes, it’s true. The first victim is Ms. Louise, and the second victim is Mr. Abel.”
Waylon was speechless.
The poison invented by the Adelmar family harmed their family members instead of others.
Luca spread his hands and said, “Mr. Waylon, what should we do with Mr. Abel now? He can’t be in the ice water/all the time.”
Abel was also worried, “Yes, Waylon. If Emma finds out, she will be worried sick. You know her. Even if she can’t see, she will find the club owner.”
“I’ll help you solve it for now,” Waylon said, taking a needle and piercing it into Abel’s acupoint.
He then put dozens of needles along his spine.
Abel felt his body go numb, and the pain became highly reduced.
Waylon said, “This paralyzes your nerves to relieve the pain temporarily. It’s only palliatives.”
Abel said, “Waylon, you still need to think of a solution. We have to treat the root cause. Otherwise, how can Emma and I have a sex life?”
Waylon frowned, looking distressed, “Can’t you just hold it for a while?”
Hold it?
Abel’s face turned dark, “Can I hold it? I’m a young man.”
“Waylon, I can’t resist my desires when I’m with Emma. I’m a normal man, not a eunuch.”
Waylon was speechless.
“Eunuchs have desires, too. They just can’t do it.” Luca objected.
“We should focus on Abel, not eunuchs,” Waylon said.
“Well, Mr. Waylon, what should we do about Mr. Abel?” Luca was worried about Abel.
Luca added, “That’s right. Making that bastard hand over the antidote would be much faster.”
Abel instructed Luca, “All right. You can build a secret room in the basement and install a bathtub inside. Also, build an ice storage room to store some ice cubes. In case I am not well, I can use it.”
“Yes, Mr. Abel,” Luca replied. “I will start working on it as soon as daylight.”
“Don’t disturb Emma during construction,” Abel said. “I don’t want her to worry.”
“Yes, Mr. Abel.”
Abel had mostly recovered an hour later but felt a bit weak.
He exited the pool, and Luca helped him put on his pajamas.
Waylon touched his pulse and found that it was normal.
They all returned to the living room, where Kendra was anxiously waiting.
When she saw Abel, she approached him and asked, “Mr. Abel, are you feeling better?”
