Chapter 754 Let’s Play A Game
Although Abel thought the man resembled his cousin Adam in some ways, something did not seem quite right. This man had a bed sheet draped over him and it completely obscured his figure. His lips were smoothed beneath the black cloth, while Adam had a mustache. This man does not look like him.
Abel wielded the pistol in his hand and roared, "What have you done to Emma? I’ll kill you if anything bad happens to her!"
Adam said, "Emma just passed out! She's perfectly fine!"
Abel cursed, "Prick! What gives you the right to call her Emma?"
Adam's complexion turned horrifyingly pale behind the black cloth.
Damn it, Abel! How dare you curse me! I'll curse you too!
Waylon called out "Hey bro! We had backed off as you had instructed. What's next?"
For a while, Adam remained silent. After that, he squinted his eyes and commanded, "Send that jerk named Abel to come up the stairs by himself!"
You call me a jerk? You're the jerk!
"Just you wait!"
Abel appeared ready to storm the building while holding the gun in his hand. He was frantic and eager to get his wife back. If it had not been for his concern that the bullet might unintentionally hurt Emmeline, he would have shot that man. He could not hold back for another minute to save his wife.
Adam called out to him from the window, "Hold on! Who allows you to bring a gun? Do you want Emmeline to die?"
Abel yelled at him and threw the gun at his feet, "Fine! I’ve no problem killing you without a gun!"
Adam sneered, "Good! Come up now. I'll hand Emmeline over to you unharmed!"
Abel sneered, "Are you sure it's this simple? What other tricks do you have up your sleeve? Just bring them all out!"
Adam cursed in his heart. "Damn it! Even though I had 'Deathly Desire' ready for Evelyn, I never had a chance to give it to her. Now I'll let you off lightly. Abel, you bring this on yourself!"
Adam sneered, "I don't have any tricks, but you have to promise that once I give Emmeline to you, you'll let me go. Otherwise, I'll take her down with me!"
Waylon said, "We promise! You must keep your promise and deliver Emmeline to us!"
Adam said, "I always keep my word! Send Abel to come up!"
Waylon nodded to Abel and urged, "Abel, you need to practice caution!"
"I will!" Abel responded with a nod.
"I'll cover you!" Benjamin said and gripped his gun.
"Alright!"
Abel strode and hurried into the living room. When he reached the upstairs room, Abel said, "I'm here. Hand over my Emma!"
Adam coldly said from the bedroom, "Let yourself in and we shall talk!"
"Bang!"
Abel kicked a hole in the door. He reached his hand to unlock the door and pushed the table which blocked the door to the side.
Both of the men stood face to face.
Abel was dressed in full military camouflage and half-length combat boots. He had a commanding presence and appeared intimidating.
Adam was draped in a bedsheet. He could not help but tremble when he saw Abel. Abel's aura had always been much more potent than his own since they were kids. He could sense Abel's killing intent from twenty feet apart.
The sight of Emmeline being held in Adam's arms broke Abel's heart. He wanted to rush over and get her back.
Adam held a dagger to Emmeline's neck and yelled sternly, "Stay there! I did not grant you permission to come over!"
Abel stretched out an arm and negotiated, "I'll let you go! Don't hurt Emma. Please hand her over to me!"
Adam sneered, "It's not that simple. It wouldn't be this simple, as you had stated yourself."
Abel narrowed his eyes and hissed, "You're despicable! If you have any more tricks, just bring them on!"
Adam said coldly with a smile, "Why don’t we play a game?"
"I don't have time to play with you! Give me my wife!" Abel scolded.
Adam sneered and threatened, "But you’ve to play this game. I’m the one who makes the rules here!"
Abel narrowed his eyes coldly and asked, "What game? Just shoot!"
"Did you notice that I'm dressed in a suit inside?" Adam inquired.
Abel looked under the black striped bed sheet Adam was wearing. Indeed, he was wearing a black suit inside.
"Yes!" Abel nodded.
"How many pockets are there on the lower part of the suit?" Adam asked.
Abel furrowed his brows and he thought to himself.
What kind of question is that?
