Adam furrowed his brows as he looked at the news headlines on his phone.
Emmeline's been abducted? Again?
Are Alana and Evelyn involved in her disappearance again this time?
I got a stern warning from Abel the last time something similar happened.
I can't just sit here and do nothing. Abel might show up at my doorstep at any moment to question me about Emmeline's disappearance. I need to find out for sure if those two are involved in this!
Adam left the Imperial Palace and headed for the Avalan Mansion in a hurry.
On the other hand, Alana was humming to herself cheerfully as she munched on some snacks. Evelyn had returned to Flynn's place.
When Alana saw Adam entering the room with a threatening look in his eyes, she was so surprised that she dropped her snacks on the floor.
"You look like you're enjoying a fun time." Adam narrowed his eyes. "Did something special happen to make you feel this excited?"
"Nothing happened, of course." Alana replied, "Can't I feel good just because it's been a lovely day?"
"Wasn't it because of the news of Emmeline's abduction?" Adam gave a scoff.
"Emmeline's been abducted?!" Alana acted as if she had heard it for the first time. "How did it happen?"
There was a loud sound as Adam slapped Alana in the face. "I'm only giving you one chance to come clean. Are you and Evelyn behind Emmeline's abduction this time?"
"Master! I…" Alana got on her knees.
"Don't waste your time trying to come up with lousy excuses." Adam's face darkened. "If I were to find out that Emmeline had gotten severely injured in your hands, I'd be sure to make you experience hell in return."
Alana knew deep down that it was only a matter of time until Adam found out what they had done.
Just then, she recalled what Evelyn had suggested as an explanation if Adam somehow caught them in their act.
"Master." Alana inched closer to Adam. "Please allow me to explain. I swear that this isn't an excuse! I was just trying to prepare a gift for you, Master. However, I was exposed before I could present the gift to you…"
"A gift?" A small frown creased Adam's forehead. "What gift?"
"Master!" Alana cupped her swollen, reddened cheeks. "I admit that I've abducted Emmeline out of vengeance. That woman has destroyed my hopes of being with the man of my dreams, after all! However, I know that I can't harm her since she matters a lot to you, Master. That's why I decided to offer her to you."
"I guess you're not that dumb, after all." Adam kicked Alana in her side. Then, he asked bitingly, "Is Evelyn involved in this?"
Alana paused for a brief moment.
Should I tell him about Evelyn's involvement? I think I'll just tell him that this is all my doing.
If Adam is actually pleased about this, I don't want to see him reward Evelyn for this.
On the contrary, if Adam is planning to punish those involved in Emmeline's abduction, I can probably keep Evelyn out of this and use her help afterward.
"She's not aware of this. It was all my doing." Alana dropped her gaze.
"Where's Emmeline?" Adam furrowed his brows. "Take me to her now."
"She…" Alana continued hesitantly, "I kept her locked up inside the Imperial Palace's dungeons."
Adam gave her a hefty kick yet again. "How dare you keep her at a place like that?!"
