When Elizabeth heard this, she directly shook her head and said, "No!" "No. Honey, don't be so excited..." "I'm obviously very calm, okay? Didn't you promise me last time? You said you wouldn't do that anymore." "It was my fault last time, but it's different this time. I can't be with you all the time. What if someone wants to hurt you? It's better to have bodyguards to protect you, isn't it?" On the way back, he thought a lot. He must send someone to protect her. But in order not to put more pressure on her and not let her worry about him, he felt that it was better not to tell her the truth first. But he wanted to know her opinion first. If she agreed, it would be great to let Ben's bodyguards protect her. Elizabeth's face eased a little. She shrugged and said, "You have already dealt with those who disliked me. So, don't do that. I will feel uneasy." James frowned slightly. As expected, she was unwilling. "Let them follow you from a di
"Mr. Lu..." Samuel stood in front of James's desk, looking at James who was concentrating on reading the documents without even raising his head. He was very nervous and uneasy. "Mn." James glanced at him and then lowered his head to read the documents again. "Well... " Samuel scratched his head, "I only found the second buyer of the car, and there is no other information..." He only slept for an hour last night, but the information he got disappointed him a lot. D*mn it, according to such a slow speed, when could he find the person James was looking for? That person was really cunning! "Okay." James nodded. Samuel carefully observed James's expression and movements, and he was a little confused in heart. What did James mean? If James was angry, he didn't even frown. But if James was not angry, according to the conclusion he had in the past, James would deride him with all the sarcastic words in this world even if he didn't blame him. Alas! Working
James came back very early that day. When he arrived home, it was only four o'clock in the afternoon. He got the certificates that Adele needed for going abroad, so he came back early. The plane was at half past seven in the evening. As soon as he walked to the living room, he saw Elizabeth sitting on the sofa in the living room, looking at her phone in a trance. "Why are you sitting here?" Hearing this, Elizabeth immediately stood up, "You're back?" "Yes." James nodded and walked to her, "Where's Adele? Is she till upstairs?" "No." Elizabeth shook her head, "She went out." She had been waiting here since Adele went out, hoping that Adele would come back soon. It was not good to her to stay outside for a long time, even if she was in the housing estate. "Did she go out?" James frowned and asked, "What did she go out for?" "She went out for a walk. I went to look for her once, but I didn't find her." "Okay." James let out a sigh of r
"Isaac, you son of b*tch!" "Jimmy! Calm down!" Benjamin said. "D*mn it! He's too cruel! Who does he think he is? I won't be able to calm down even if I beat him to death!" "Beat me! Just beat me to death!" A light but desperate voice sounded, which made Elizabeth, who had been standing still because of fear and sorrow, shiver and rush to the operating room. As soon as she entered the operating room, she gulped. What she had seen made her heart can't stop trembling. Isaac sat on the ground weakly with his head lowered, allowing James to punch him fiercely. James beat him crazily, kicking and cursing him from time to time. Benjamin tried to separate them, but finally he gave up. He just stood aside and looked at them with a frown. The operating room was not big, but it was full of a fishy smell. The ground was covered by bloodstains, which looked shocking. The curtain in front of the surgical bed was half pulled up. She could see half of th
"Isaac..." Benjamin looked over and frowned. Isaac, who had been lying on the ground, had stood up unsteadily, looking upset and desperate. His nose was still bleeding, but he didn't wipe the blood and staggered to the bed. He walked very slowly with his back hunched. He was pressing his chest with one hand, and he was very firm. It was only a distance of five or six steps, but he walked more than a dozen steps. When he reached the head of the bed, he stopped and slowly squatted down. He stared at the small bear-shaped drum on the ground for a long time before he held it with his hand trembling. After a long while, he didn't care whether the ground was clean or not, nor did he care about the eyes of the people in the room. He directly sat on the floor and looked at the small drum. He held it more and more tightly, as if he wanted to grab something. Suddenly, he spat out a large mouthful of blood, and lots of blood was sprayed on the small drum.
Benjamin drove very fast and headed straight for South Mountain. "James, Adele... She will be fine, right?" Elizabeth thought of the scene in the operating room and couldn't calm down. She asked in a trembling voice. She asked this just to get a little comfort, but in fact, she was very clear that Adele was in danger according to that situation. James didn't speak. His eyes were fixed on the front, and he only reached out to hold her hand with great strength. His mood was extremely complicated at this moment. He was worried and anxious. He was not so anxious just now, because at least he could vent his anger on Isaac. However, after he saw how desperate Issac was, he had no way to beat him anymore, let alone scold him. He was not stupid. From Isaac's movements just now, he knew that Isaac seemed to love Adele, including their child. Seeing that James did not speak, Elizabeth felt even sadder and uneasier. She blamed herself and said, "It's all my fau
Isaac was found at nine o'clock that night. He was seriously injured because his head bumped into a reef and he had been soaked in water for a long time. Elizabeth went to the hospital with James. Isaac's head was wrapped in thick gauze and he was having an intravenous drip, but he was in a coma. "The doctor said that it is unknown when he can wake up. Maybe... he will be in a coma forever." Benjamin stood by the bed, looked at Isaac whose face was as pale as a piece of white paper, and clenched his hands into fists. Elizabeth felt sombre when she heard that. She looked at the thing in her hand, walked forward, and gently put it in Isaac's hand. That was the small bear-shaped drum she had picked up on the cliff in the afternoon. Thinking of the scene beside the cliff in the afternoon and looking at Isaac whose lips were pale, she only hoped that he could wake up earlier. It was not until later that she finally understood why Isaac said that he wanted to sm
Elizabeth sat on the swing in the garden and looked straight at the flowers and plants in front of her, but she was not in the mood to trim them. Ten days had passed, but Adele hadn't been found. The time of the search was limited. After the police left, James and Benjamin didn't give up. Benjamin asked his bodyguards to look for Adele for another week. They not only searched the small place where she jumped down, but also searched for hundreds of kilometers around, but they still couldn't find her. Finally, although they were unwilling, they had to give up. It had been so long since Adele jumped off the cliff and they had searched for a long distance. Even if they didn't want to give up, they had no other choices. These days, James told Elizabeth something about Adele and Isaac, and Elizabeth felt so sympathetic towards Adele. It turned out that Adele was the child of the nanny in Isaac's family. Her mother worked as a nanny in the Bais, and her father wa
