Adam took the phone and glanced at the screen.
The number was saved as "W-Adam frowned and answered the call.
“Mr. Adam’ A low voice was heard.
“You can speak freely. There are no strangers around.”
“It's like this, the person said, “The police have been
searching for the owner of the Imperial Palace for the past
two days. I'm just giving you advance warning.”
“..I see. Thank you,” Adam said.
“Bye for now.
“Wait,” Adam said.
“Is there anything else, Mr. Adam?"
“That girl named Alana Lane,” Adam said. "Is she with you?"
“Mm, the person replied. “She'll probably be locked up a few
years after the indictment."
“Oh,” Adam said and hung up.
The police have been hunting for the owner of the Imperial Palace,
and Alana is locked up.
Looks like Abel has been busy. Why didn't Deathly Desire bring him
death?
If this goes on, will Abel find out that it’s me?
Suddenly, Adam thought of someone.
Mr. Ywain from Sunny Avenue! Alana met him before.
If Alana says something about Mr. Ywain, will they pick up the clue?
I can't let that happen!
Adam beckoned to his assistant, who leaned close to him.
Adam whispered something in his ear. In the end, he drew a
line over his own neck.
“Yes, Mr. Adam.”
“There's also Mr. Ywain. It's not safe to keep him alive.
"So what about...” the assistant drew a line over his own neck.
“He can live,” Adam said. "I still have a use for him.
“Aren't you worried that he might have loose lips?”
“If that's the case...” Adam whispered something into his
assistant's ear.
“I see. That works.” The assistant nodded.
Adam searched for Mr. Ywain's name in his address book. He
was about to make the call when he received a call from Mr.
Ywain.
Does he know I was about to call him?
Adam answered the call, and Mr. Ywain's loud voice was
heard.
"Mr. Adam! How have you been?"
Well, my head was nearly split open, but you don't have to know.
“Heh, I'm fine,” Adam answered with a smile. "I was about to
call you, but you were two seconds faster.’
“Haha!” Mr. Ywain laughed. "Great minds think alike! I had a
feeling that you were going to look for me”
Adam was surprised. He really knows! Don't tell me he can predict
the future!
Adam chuckled and said, "I see! Why do you think I'm
looking for you?"
“Ahem!” Mr. Ywain stroked his beard. "For the 600,000
dollars, of course!"
600,000 dollars? What's that?
Suddenly, he remembered.
Is Mr. Ywain demanding payment for Deathly Desire?
Adam had been very busy, and he totally forgot about it.
"Haha!" Adam narrowed his gaze. "You're right! I was thinking
of calling you because of that. I hope it's not causing you any
problems with your finances.’
“There's no rush!” Mr. Ywain said while stroking his beard.
I might need the money, but I can't sound desperate! How am I
going to maintain my image if I did?
“If there's no rush, can you do me another favor?" Adam said.
“I'll pay you for both jobs."
Mr. Ywain narrowed his eyes at the mention of another transaction.
Chapter 802 Pamper Her
After Emmeline watched Abcl go to the bathroom, she asked
Waylon, "Waylon, did you knock me out earlier?”
“Mm. Waylon did not hide it from her.
“Why?" Emmeline asked, feeling aggrieved. "You made me
sleep for so long. Didn't you promise me you'll bring me to
the hospital to visit my husband?"
"I'm not too familiar with the roads here,” Waylon said. "You
were so noisy earlier, and I nearly ran a red light because of
you.
It was Emmeline's turn to be speechless.
"In any case, Abel is okay now, isn't he?" Waylon said. "You
didn't have to worry about anything while you were sleeping.”
I guess you're right? When I woke up, everything was okay.
When Abel came out of the bathroom, Emmeline stretched
her arms toward him.
Abel was surprised. She's not asking me to hug her, right?
Emmeline said, “Let me touch you, Abel.”
“Why? I feel perfectly fine,” Abel said.
“I want to confirm for myself that you're okay. They all say
that you're okay, and I can't see it for myself?
“Don't you trust your husband and elder brother?"
She's right for not trusting us. We're all lying to her. Waylon
thought.
“It's not that,” Emmeline said while waving her arms in
midair. "Can't ] touch my own husband even if I have no
good reason?”
“Abel, why don't you let Emma touch you? You'll be fine,”
Waylon said.
Abel glared at him. Aren'’t you worried that my Deathly Destre
will be triggered? You pamper her too much! I mean, I pamper her
too...
Abel gritted her teeth, leaned close to the bed, and let
Emmeline touch him.
Emmeline stood up and touched Abel's head. It was whole.
She touched his face and did not feel any scars.
She held on to him and got off the bed. Starting from his
shoulders, she touched every inch of his body down to his
heels.
“You're okay!”
“Didn't I tell you I'm okay?" Abel said while exhaling heavily.
Emmeline smiled and pecked Abel's cheek, which made him
shudder involuntarily.
“Let's go downstairs,” Waylon said while pulling Abel away.
“You should cook dinner for Emma!”
“I want to go downstairs too, Emmeline stretched out her
arms again. "Carry me, Abel.”
Abel was surprised. He had to suppress his desires as much as
possible. The pain would make him want to die!
“Well, Emma, you know that Abel just got discharged from
the hospital, right?” Waylon said. "His strength hasn't
recovered fully. Why not... I carry you downstairs?”
Before Emmeline could answer, Abel bent over, picked
Emmeline up, and ran down the stairs.
"I'm carrying a log. I'm carrying a log..."
“Hubby, what are you saying?” Emmeline asked while leaning
onto his chest.
“Oh! I was wondering what I should cook for dinner!” Abel
replied.
Adam received eight stitches on the back of his head.
The doctors had to shave a patch of his scalp to keep the
wound clean.
Adam thought that Abel did that deliberately to him.
However, he did not cause Emmeline’s injury on the back of
her head. It was Alana and Evelyn!
He lifted his free hand and touched the wound on the back of
his head, which caused him to wince.
His assistant came over.
“Are you feeling better, sir?”
“Do I look like I'm feeling better?"
The assistant shook his head and realized his question was
pointless.
He could see that his employer's face was pale and guessed
that he was in pain.
Despite the pain, Adam felt happy because he saw Deathly
Desire takes effect.
Suddenly, his phone rang.
He could not reach his phone, so the assistant quickly took it
from the bedside cabinet and handed it to him.
Adam glanced at the screen...
