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 findcompensation from you. I know both Abel Ryker and Waylon Adelmar adore you, so I want them toexperience what it feels like to have their darling ruined! Be forewarned, I’m not going to show you anymercy!
Adam put his old-fashioned mobile phone away and crossed his legs. He was not going to reply toEmmeline’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.novelbin
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!
The 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 fromyesterday.
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 undergroundactivity. 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. Tll be waiting for you.”
Before Emmeline could reply, she received another message. “Come alone. If I find another personwith 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 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… andhe’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.
