Chapter 1797 Evan Confronts Shermaine
Damien nodded. âMr. Seet said he was worried about you, so he went in to look for you. Youâre out, but heâs still inside.â
âShould we go in and look for Mr. Seet?â
Davin thought for a second before shaking his head. âNo, we canât go in. Heâs going to be fine. Heâll definitely be fine. Didnât Shermaine say she likes him? She definitely wonât hurt him. Weâre different. If we get caught, those two women wonât show us any mercy. Besides, itâs easier for my brother to escape alone. If we go in now, weâll only add on to his burden. Letâs just go back first and see how things go!â
Damien and Draven agreed with Davinâs assessment, but they felt bad about leaving Evan behind.
âAre you sure Mr. Seet is going to be fine, Mr. Davin?â
âIâm sure! Women like him. He has an advantage.â
The two Hidden Masters stared at each other and realized Davin was right, so they all promptly left.
Once Evan entered the cave, he went straight to Eliasâ room. However, just as he stood in front of the door, he heard someone coughing behind him.
âAre you here to see me, Evan? If thatâs the case, youâre looking at the wrong room. My roomâs this one.â It was obviously Shermaineâs voice.
Evan turned around to face her. She was wearing a simple white dress, thus making her snow-white skin look paler and flawless.
âIâm here for Elias!â
âElias? Didnât he go out with you? He hasnât come back!â
Elias hasnât come back? Then whereâs Davin? The two of them didnât realize Davin was impersonating Elias? Evanâs eyebrows furrowed.
âI told you Iâm here and that Elias isnât! Why are you still standing there? Come to me!â She spoke as she gave him a wink.
Evan ignored her and narrowed his sharp eyes to examine every corner of the cave. Damien and Draven saw Davin come in but didnât see him go out. He must be inside here.
Seeing that he was ignoring her, Shermaine approached him slowly and stopped by his side. âWhy are you visiting me, Evan? Is it because you missed me?â
Evan lowered his head and replied, âI want to tour around the cave! Is that okay?â
A tour around the cave? Heâs here to find the guy impersonating Elias! Shermaine smiled and answered, âOutsiders arenât allowed to explore this cave. If you really want to, you can, but you must become a resident of Daemonic Mount first.â
âYou want me to join Daemonic Mount?â Evan stared at her coldly.
âNo. We have very strict requirements as to who we accept here. Not everyone can join if they want to. What I mean is that you can be one of my people first. And if youâre my people, you can explore this place however you want, whenever you want! Itâs quite a fair exchange, I must say.â
âIâm just gonna stop beating around the bush. Whereâs the person who entered the cave earlier?â
Hearing that, Shermaine put on a serious expression and said, âWe caught the person who was impersonating Elias earlier! Heâs currently being tortured, so thereâs no way you can save him easily!â
Tortured. Evanâs heart dropped. Davin has never experienced any significant pain before. How are they dealing with him? Is heâ¦
âWhere is he?â
Shermaine crossed her arms. âIâm not telling you! What are you going to do, huh?â
Evan tightened his fists. âLet him go or Iâll make you regret it!â
âOh? And how are you going to do that?â Shermaine touched his shoulder as she spoke.
Evan swiftly dodged and pressed his hands on Shermaineâs shoulders. âLet him go, and Iâll let you go. Otherwiseâ¦â He then tightened his grip, causing her to yell out in pain.
