Looking at the photo, Abel nodded. “Yes! Number 1!”
“Adrien, Lizbeth looks a lot like me!” exclaimed Emmeline.
“It’s her then. Adrien, I met this girl before. She looks good!” Abel said again.
“Emma, what do you think?” Adrien asked, looking at Emmeline.
“We’re trapped together in Imperial Palace before. I think she’s good too,” replied Emmeline.
“So, it’s her then. Shall we call her now?” Adrien asked.
Just when the three of them were talking excitedly, someone shouted, “Someone is poisoned. Call
911.”
Hearing that, Abel opened the door and asked, “What happened? What’s going on?”
“Mr. Abel, Old Mr. Ryker is looking for you. You’d better go downstairs to take a lot. Someone was
poisoned and was spitting out blood!” exclaimed the butler, Fabian Ryker.
Poisoned? Spitting out blood?
Abel felt a chill run down his spine. How could such a thing happen on such an occasion?
Without further ado, he ran downstairs to take a look.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAdrien and Emmeline followed too.
The living room was in chaos.
A middle-aged lady was lying on the floor with blood dribbling from the corner of her mouth.
Another young lady held her in her arms and cried, “Mom, what’s wrong? Are you okay?”
Seeing Abel, Oscar commanded at once, “Abel, be alert! Someone just poisoned the lady!” Looking at
the photo, Abel nodded. “Yes! Number 1!”
“Adrien, Lizbeth looks a lot like me!” exclaimed Emmeline.
Hearing that, Abel quickly informed Luca.
Luca gathered all the bodyguards in a hurry and searched the whole villa.
Abel squeezed his way to the middle-aged lady and squatted down to take a look. The middle-aged
woman’s eyes were closed and dark red blood dribbled from the corner of her mouth. Apparently, she
was being poisoned.
“What happened to her?” Emmeline ran over too.
“She seems to have been poisoned!”
Emmeline quickly checked the woman’s wrist and felt that her pulse was very weak. She was dying.
“Who is so vicious to poison someone like this? My mother didn’t offend anyone!” The young woman
cried. “She just had a sip of red wine and become like this.”
Red wine? Was the red wine poisoned?
Hearing that, all the guests were terrified. They put down their red wine glasses at once.
Emmeline was served a glass of red wine just now. Luckily, she did not drink it.
However, it seemed that not all red wines were poisoned. Otherwise, the middle-aged woman would
not be the only one who fell to the ground.
Soon, Ryker’s family doctor arrived. He rushed over and gave the middle-aged lady a shot.
Emmeline also took out a needle from her bag and inserted it through the middle-aged woman’s vein to
block her meridians. She wanted to slow down the middle-aged lady’s blood circulation so that she
could make it to the hospital.
In less than 10 minutes, the ambulance arrived. The paramedics quickly gave the middle-aged woman
infusion before carrying her into the ambulance with a stretcher.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was only until the ambulance drove away that everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Soon, the crowd
dispersed.
Adam’s bodyguard was hiding in the corner, aiming at Abel.
Adam had ordered him to kill Abel in one shot. Nonetheless, Abel was squatting down with the middle-
aged woman just now and was surrounded in the crowd. The bodyguard had no chance to shoot at all.
Since the crowd had dispersed now, it was the perfect opportunity to shoot.
However, as soon as the bodyguard wanted to pull the trigger, Alana showed up.
The bodyguard was dumbfounded. What was Alana doing here?
“The target is not Abel!” whispered Alana.
Hearing that, the bodyguard was confused. “Who’s the target then?”
“Emmeline! Mr. Adam wants you to kill Emmeline first!”
Kill Emmeline first?
The bodyguard scowled but did not ask anything further. He would kill whomever Adam wanted him to
kill.
“Do it now before it’s too late!” said Alana again.
With that, the bodyguard raised his gun and aimed at Emmeline who stood beside Abel.
