Blizzard, First Love and a Wife Who Finally Snaps novel Chapter 283

Adrian stared at Isabel, his voice betraying no emotion. “Are you sure you want me to say it, out loud, in front of everyone?”

He didn't specify who he was talking to.

But it seemed everyone knew the question was directed at her.

Isabel understood immediately.

But she remained silent.

Back in the Grey Zone, her emotions had been unstable, and she had let things slip.

And Adrian knew exactly how to make her lose control.

In a moment like this, she was terrified. Silence was her best defense.

She squeezed Julian's palm.

Julian took the cue. “If you have something to say, say it. Who are you trying to threaten with these vague statements, Mr. Blackwell?”

“I’ll say it a thousand times if I have to: your wife is not here.”

Adrian’s index finger rested on the trigger. A single press, and Julian would be dead.

But Julian just smiled, completely unafraid. “Mr. Blackwell, if you can sit through my wedding quietly, perhaps I could tell you where to find Selena?”

Adrian had been searching for Selena for days.

That doctor who acted on her own—wherever she had dumped Selena was where he would bury her.

If she had just listened to him from the start and put Selena in the cryogenic pod, she never would have escaped.

A person so desperate to live would never truly die.

She was definitely looking for a way out.

Faking her death was the best method.

Especially with help from the outside.

That made her incredibly hard to find.

“So it was you.”

Julian reached out and calmly pushed the gun away from his forehead. He smirked playfully. “I’m just curious, Mr. Blackwell. In your heart, who is more important: your wife, or Selena?”

“Of course, this is just a hypothetical. Let’s assume your wife is still alive. In that case, who would you choose, Mr. Blackwell?”

Adrian stared at Isabel for a long moment before replying, “I don’t answer hypothetical questions.”
