Emmeline was lying on the bed thinking of a way to escape. As she was cracking his brain, she heard cars speeding towards the mansion. She quickly stood up, looked outside the window, and saw Abelâs Rolls-Royce leading his three bodyguard vehicles.
Emmeline jumped up and said, âAbel, youâre amazing! Youâve found me so soon!â
She ran to the door and tried to open it, but it was locked from the outside.
âAdam, you jerk! Let me out!â
Emmeline was punching and kicking the door, but the door was too sturdy. The room was also soundproofed, so no one came to see what was going on.
Adam was preparing wine, when his butler ran in and said, âMr. Adam, Mr. Abel is here with his men.â
âWhat? Heâs already here?â Abel stood up.
Alana ran away when she heard that Abel was here.
The living room door was kicked open. Abel walked in angrily. His bodyguards were following behind with guns in their hands.
Adam did not expect Abel to walk into his mansion so brazenly. However, it was also not Abelâs first time doing that.
Abelâs bodyguard surrounded Adam.
âAbel, what are you doing?â Adam was saying with a little guilt.
He knew Abel was a cold-blooded killer. He was cruel during a key moment.
âWhat am I doing? Iâm sure you know.â Abel grinned.
Adam knew he could not hide it from Abel, so he said, âIâm just inviting Emmett here to be my guest. Is this necessary?â
âInviting him here as a guest?â Abel chuckled, âIs this an invitation or an abduction?â
Adam sneered and said, âI only used a little force because he would not listen to me.â
âYou know Emmett is just a child! Donât you think doing that is too much?â
âAbel, I donât think you are qualified to scold me.â Adam got angry.
âAre you saying that when youâve hurt my people?â Abel scoffed.
âWhy does Emmett belong to you? Perhaps he likes to be with me?â
âAdam, youâre overestimating yourself. Emmett is a pure kid. He will try to avoid someone vile like you as much as possible.â
âAnyway, Emmett is my guest. I wonât hand him over to you!â
âIs that so? You must take responsibility for your own words!â Abel said.
âOf course. This is my turf. Are you trying to have a bloodbath here?â Adam said.
âYou can give it a try.â Abel waved his hand. All the bodyguards behind him pointed their guns toward Adam.
Adam laughed and said, âAbel, do you think Iâll concede because of that?â
He waved his hand, and his bodyguards took out their guns as well.
Both sides were in a stand-off.
Then, the living room door opened. Benjamin and his bodyguards rushed in.
âAbel, am I late?â Benjamin said.
âYour timing is just right.â Abel said with a smile.
Adam was not happy to be at a disadvantage. He knew a fight would not start easily. It was just a show of power. When Benjamin came, his side became weaker immediately.
âAdam, the security system in Avalan is rubbish. Why donât you let the Adelmar Group help you install a more advanced system?â Benjamin chuckled.
