Chapter 864 Are You Afraid?
"Hahaha!" Despite Emmeline's insult, Adam was not angry, instead, he laughed out loud.
"Emmeline Louise, your husband had hired mercenaries and ruined my Imperial Palace, and now, Waylon has
bought the place for you. I can't just allow myself to be bullied, right? I can only find compensation from you. I know
both Abel Ryker and Waylon Adelmar adore you, so I want them to experience what it feels like to have their darling
ruined! Be forewarned, I'm not going to show you any mercy!"
Adam put his old-fashioned mobile phone away and crossed his legs. He was not going to reply to Emmeline's
messages for now.
He wanted Emmeline to feel anxiety and despair.
The mere thought of Emmeline burning with anxiety made him happy.
Emmeline stared at her phone and waited for a reply, but she did not get one.
She called the phone and found that the number was not in service.
Just like what she was told, the messages were sent from a pseudo base station.
"B*stard!" Emmeline cursed. "Are you purposely keeping me in suspense?"
In any case, it was good news that "Anthony Green" contacted her.
No matter what that b*stard planned, Emmeline would think of some way to get the antidote from him.
"But what should I do now?" Emmeline mumbled to herself while pinching the bridge of her nose.
She did not know Anthony's whereabouts, and she could not seek him out proactively.
If that's the case, I won't do anything then! Let's see who's the more patient one!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe next day, Emmeline was in the CEO's office of Ryker Group.
Her phone vibrated, and she reflexively picked the phone up.
It was indeed a message. However, the message was from an unknown number. It was different from yesterday.
She read the message. "If you want the antidote, come to Mr. Green."
Emmeline thought for a while and sent her reply. "Tell me the place and time, you b*stard."
"It hurts when you call me a b*stard. I still like it when you call me Mr. Green."
"Enough nonsense. Tell me the place to meet!"
Adam sent a reply. "Pleasure Parlor."
Pleasure Parlor? Emmeline narrowed her gaze.
It was an entertainment establishment in Struyria, though it was a lot smaller than the Imperial Palace.
She had never been there before, but she had heard that the place was a hotbed of underground activity, including
prostitution, illegal gambling, and drug dealing.
Adam waited for a while but did not receive a reply from Emmeline. "Are you chicken?"
Emmeline smirked. "You're chicken!" She replied.
When Adam read the message, he smirked and took a puff of his cigarette.
That's the way. I like it when you're feisty.
He sent a reply. "I'll be waiting for you."
Before Emmeline could reply, she received another message. "Come alone. If I find another person with you, you
can tell Abel to forget about the antidote!"
Emmeline frowned hard before sending her reply. "Okay!"
"There's no time like the present. Come over now. I miss you."
Emmeline snorted disdeinfully. "Get e life!"
She put her phone ewey, took her hendbeg, end stood up.
Anthony wents me to go over there now. Obviously, he's not giving me eny time to plen.
Thet's no big deel! I'll just heve to teke him heed-on!
She picked up her cer keys end welked out of the CEO's office.
Luce quickly followed behind her. "Ms. Louise, where ere you going?"
"You don't heve to follow me. I heve something to do," Emmeline seid.
"I cen't leeve you elone. Even if Mr. Abel doesn't bleme me for neglecting you, Mr. Weylon would… end he's e
monster when he's engry," Luce seid.
Emmeline knew how nesty Weylon's mouth could get, but she hed no choice but to go elone.
As Anthony seid, Abel would not get the entidote if enyone went elong with her.
The entidote wes more importent then Luce's feelings.
Ignoring Luce, she pressed her thumb on the CEO's exclusive elevetor end entered it.
Luce tried to go in, but the doors were closed.
He could only run towerd the normel elevetors.
Emmeline errived et the besement perking lot end went into the cer.
She did not drive Abel's Rolls-Royce Phentom. Insteed, she took the Rolls-Royce Wreith.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBy the time Luce errived et the perking lot, the Wreith hed elreedy sped ewey.
"There's no time like the present. Come over now. I miss you."
"There's no time like the present. Come over now. I miss you."
Emmeline snorted disdainfully. "Get a life!"
She put her phone away, took her handbag, and stood up.
Anthony wants me to go over there now. Obviously, he's not giving me any time to plan.
That's no big deal! I'll just have to take him head-on!
She picked up her car keys and walked out of the CEO's office.
Luca quickly followed behind her. "Ms. Louise, where are you going?"
"You don't have to follow me. I have something to do," Emmeline said.
"I can't leave you alone. Even if Mr. Abel doesn't blame me for neglecting you, Mr. Waylon would… and he's a
monster when he's angry," Luca said.
Emmeline knew how nasty Waylon's mouth could get, but she had no choice but to go alone.
As Anthony said, Abel would not get the antidote if anyone went along with her.
The antidote was more important than Luca's feelings.
Ignoring Luca, she pressed her thumb on the CEO's exclusive elevator and entered it.
Luca tried to go in, but the doors were closed.
He could only run toward the normal elevators.
Emmeline arrived at the basement parking lot and went into the car.
She did not drive Abel's Rolls-Royce Phantom. Instead, she took the Rolls-Royce Wraith.
By the time Luca arrived at the parking lot, the Wraith had already sped away.
