Chapter 137: Chapter 137

Hearing this, I couldn’t help but gulp nervously.

I wasn’t sure if Carlos was captured on camera.

If they found out that it was Carlos who took Colin out of the dungeon, what could I say?

I tried my best to think of an excuse to deal with it, but it turned out that I didn’t have to worry.

The surveillance footage did show a man sneaking Colin out, but they couldn’t make out who it was.

Because Carlos had moved so quickly and stealthily, the camera didn’t capture his face at all.

“Find out who that man is right now!” After watching the footage twice, Adam flew into a fit of rage.

But his anger was focused on Colin’s “accomplice,” not me.

I breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, he didn’t suspect me anymore.

But before I could relax, Adam suddenly turned to me and said, “Debra, you’ll inevitably cross paths with Janiya if you keep working for me.

It’s too troublesome.

”

My heart skipped a beat.

I had a bad feeling about this.

Sure enough, Adam continued, “Starting tomorrow, you’ll assist my wife and take care of whatever she needs.

That way, you won’t have to report to the office.

I don’t want any trouble from you and Janiya again.

”

What the hell?

I got very anxious.

The only way I could get information on Adam’s plan to sell Roz Town was to keep an eye on him at the office.

How was I supposed to investigate if I was busy being his wife’s servant?

I hurriedly tried to change his mind.

“I swear I’ll be more careful next time.

Can’t I stay here?”

But Adam had already made a decision.

“No.

Janiya’s too willful.

No matter how careful you are, she’ll always start a fight with you.

Can’t you see? I’m doing this for your own good.

”

I lowered my head and bit my lip dejectedly.

“Okay.

”

It seemed that no matter what I said, it was useless.

Adam had already made up his mind on the matter.

And if I insisted, it would only arouse his suspicion.

Soon after leaving the dungeon, I was forced to get off work early.

I found Harlan waiting for me outside the office building.

As soon as I walked out, he ran to me and apologized profusely.

“Jesus, Debra.

I’m really sorry.

I was delayed by something just now, so I wasn’t able to come here sooner.

I’m sorry…”

“It’s okay.

”

My nerves had been tense all day, so I was exhausted now.

I didn’t have the energy to talk to Harlan, so I simply opened the door and got in the car.

“Well, how’d it go?” Harlan squinted at me and asked cautiously.

I shook my head and sighed.

“Not good.

Adam wants me to take care of Riley from now on.
