Adam jumped at the chance to hold her thin waist.
Emmeline quickly counterattacks. She tried to attack the pressure points on Adamâs body.
Unfortunately, she was blind, her attack felt more like tickling for Adam.
Adam giggled as he dodged her attack. He lifted Emmeline into his arms and said, âThere are several step- of stairs here. Donât move, or if I drop you, youâll be in pain, and Iâll be heartbroken.â
Emmeline was disgusted with the lewd love talk that came from that pervert. She said, âI just need you to hold my hand!â
She had not given up the idea to jump off the stairs, but Adam tightly gripped her and would not let go.
How could Emmeline break free from him?
Adam laid Emmeline down on the bed and covered her with the quilt when they got to the second floor.
Adam said, âBe a good babe and take a nap now. When the food is ready, Iâll come upstairs and feed you.â
He greatly annoyed Emmeline, but she was powerless to stop him. She waved her hand in disgust and said, âGo away! Just go!â
Adam cheerfully walked downstairs.
Whether itâs an order or a scolding, Iâm happy as long as Emmeline is willing to talk to me. Naturally, if Emmeline thanked me, I would be thrilled that I might wake up from my dreams with laughter. Love is a truly beautiful thing.
Adam believed it was worth it even though he had lost the Imperial Palace overnight because he still had Emma. However, he has a problem now. If he wanted to run away with Emmeline, he would need a lot of money.
Money was not a problem for him, but his income would be significantly reduced without the Imperial Palace.
This could not continue. I need a lot of money to provide for Emmaâs needs.
Adam had Evelyn in mind as he pondered this.
When Evelyn and the bodyguard returned to the village with the cooking ingredients, Adam pulled her aside.
Evelyn was overjoyed.
Is Mr. Adam going to bestow a favor on me?
âEvelyn, I remember you saying that day that you could get 10 million?â Adam asked as Evelyn was about to burst with joy.
When Evelyn was startled, she asked, âWhy are you bringing up this topic again?
Adam said, âWe can run away if you can get 10 million.â
Evelyn was overjoyed, and she said, âRun away? You want to run away with me?â
Adam continued, âOf course, together with Emmeline. Iâm not going to abandon her.â
Evelyn rebuked, âIf you take her, Abel wonât stop chasing us!â
Adam retorted, âIf I donât take her, why would I want to get my hands on 10 million? Should I run away with you? Is that fun?â
Evelyn was speechless.
In the end, this man is still doing it for Emmeline.
Adam noticed Evelyn pouting in resentment. He said, âI only have two of you. Think about it. When you make up your mind, you can tell me about it.â
Evelyn rolled her eyes. She thought to herself.
Emmeline is blind anyway. Could a blind person outdo me? I have plenty of opportunities to make her disappear from Adamâs side in the future.
She said, âIâve thought about this for a long time, but you didnât give me a chance to speak last time.â
Adam said, âTell me now. Let me hear your plan.â
Evelyn put her hands around Adamâs neck and whispered a few words in his ear.
Adam said, âWell, it sounds doable but quite troublesome.â
Evelyn explained, âThereâs no other way now. How else are we going to get 10 million in a short time?â
Adam concurred, âAlright then. I need you to find a way to trick Flynn, and Iâll take my men to kidnap him!â
âAlright, I hope we can nail this.â
âHmmm,â Adam nodded.
Adam wanted to leave. He wanted to go upstairs to be with Emmeline. He felt uneasy after being away from her for a while.
Evelyn grabbed him and said, âMr. Adam!â
âAnything else?â Adam asked impatiently.
Evelyn leaned into his arms. She reached into his shirt and caressed his muscular chest. She said, âMr.
Adam! Weâ¦â
Evelyn lifted her leg and rubbed it against him. She said, âWhat else could a man and a woman that were burning with passion do?â
In the past, Adam would have been consumed with desire. He would have pushed the woman down and brutally conquered her. Surprisingly, he was disgusted by Evelynâs actions now. He pushed Evelyn away and chided, âGet lost! Iâm not interested.â
Evelyn lifted her dress and said, âMr. Adam, have you forgotten how much fun we used to have?â
