Elaine opened her mouth and was about to say something when Caesar's men hurried in from outside: "Mr. James, Darnell is almost here."
The smile on Caesar's face was even stronger, and he looked at Elaine with a few moments of pleasure: "Elaine, it's really not in vain that Uncle Caesar loves you for nothing."
Elaine looked at him and frowned slightly, not understanding what he meant.
Soon after, Caesar relaxed, "If it weren't for you, how would I know so easily where Darnell's weaknesses lie?"
Elaine reacted, her eyes instantly widening, "Uncle Caesar!"
"Don't worry, I'm your UNCLE, how could I hurt you."
Elaine stepped forward and took his arm, her eyes full of tears: "Uncle Caesar, I beg you, don't make any more mistakes, since you're still alive, can you go somewhere where no one knows you and start over and stop doing bad things, Darnell he ...... He won't be threatened by you."
Caesar smiled and gently patted her head: "Silly girl, today he will come here to look for you, it is enough to say everything."
"No, he didn't. ......"
"In the end, I overestimated him, and never took that marriage contract of yours seriously. If he hadn't appeared immediately every time you were in danger, I wouldn't have thought that you were actually that important to him."
Elaine tried to retort, but all that came out of her throat was a lump.
These things that were once a dream for her, have now become a burden and a drag for him.
She really did give him trouble after all ......
Elaine gradually withdrew her hand and slowly spoke, "Uncle Caesar, did you have anything to do with my accident?"
Caesar did not answer, but simply said, "I explained that they would not endanger your life."
Elaine looked at him like a stranger: "So making me marry Brendon, as well as threatening my father, was actually all at your behest."
Caesar sighed: "Elaine, I can't be blamed for this, I didn't know about your relationship with Darnell at that time, since you like it, of course I support you to be together, your father there, I can also go to help you say, how about it?"
"No!" Elaine shook her head, "Uncle Caesar, this is my own business, not yours, and don't think you'll use me to blackmail Darnell to get your way, there's no way he'll agree to that."
Caesar laughed: "This was before, of course, he could not promise me, but now there are you, Elaine."
At this time, the men came in again, "Mr. James, they'll be here in two minutes."
Caesar said to Elaine, "Elaine, think about what I'm saying, wouldn't it be a good thing for you."
After the words, he smiled and turned to leave, not forgetting to turn back and remind, "By the way Elaine, don't try to leave Riverside City or when you next come back, it will be for your dad's funeral."
Soon, Elaine was the only one left in the large room.
She fell helplessly to the ground, hiding her face in pain and crying.
Why is this, why is her Uncle Caesar, the person she used to be the closest and most trusting to her the best, turned into this ......
When Darnell arrived, he saw Elaine sitting there intact, let out an inaudible breath, lifted his leg and walked over, bent one knee and squatted in front of her: "Elaine."
Hearing his voice, Elaine looked up with teary eyes, then flung herself into his arms and cried louder.
Darnell gently patted her back and whispered reassuringly, "It's okay, don't be afraid."
Elaine cried sad and hard: "I saw my Uncle Caesar, he's not dead ......"
Darnell said, "Yeah, I know."
