Chapter 711 Adam the Abductor
There was no way Maxwell would pinch Alondra so she had to do it herself. The pain from her thigh
reminded her that the offer was very real.
“I’ll be the richest person in Struyria once I have those things!” Alondra kissed the dowry list.
“Do you want the dowry or do you want Emmeline back?” asked Waylon nonchalantly.
“Dowry, of course.” Alondra noticed her Freudian slip as soon as that came out. She immediately
slapped herself. “Em… Emmeline, I mean.”
“Are you sure?” said Waylon mockingly.
“Yes, definitely.” The dowry list still hadn’t left Alondra’s hand. “Human bonds are more important than
money.”
“I’m so glad to hear that. Now, are you happy with the current arrangement? Finding Emmeline will be
our top priority,” continued Waylon.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was at that moment that Alondra realized that she was set up. She would gladly trade Emmeline for
the dowry but she couldn’t say it out loud. She could only hope that Waylon was serious when he said
he would give the dowry to her if Emmeline couldn’t be found. She needed the money for her
retirement!

Meanwhile, Adam transferred Emmeline to the innermost mansion within Imperial Palace. It was a
quiet place, too quiet for his liking. But now that he had Emmeline to himself, he needed some privacy.

Adam was enjoying the incessant news articles about Abel’s scandal on his phone. But the amusement

“Emma, are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?” Adam said in another voice.
“I just ate. Is eating all I’m allowed to do now?” Emmeline looked into the distance, despite her lack of
eyesight.
“Let’s do something. What do you want to do?” said Adam gently.

“I can fulfill all your requests except that.”
“You can’t keep me here, Mr. Green. Feelings cannot be forced,” said Emmeline.
Abel shook his head. “The moment I saw you, I knew I had to own you. And I won’t let you go now that
you’re all mine. Don’t ever think about leaving.”
“You can’t win my heart like this.”
“I don’t care.” Adam sighed. “I won’t let you leave me. Even if you don’t love me.”
“You disgust me,” Emmeline scowled. “If you touch me, I’ll fight you. If I can’t kill you, I’ll kill myself.”
“Don’t do something stupid. You’ll hurt me.” Adam leaned in and…
