Chapter 288
Silvia walked up to him and straightened his tie for him. She smiled and said, “I messed up your tie earlier.”
She was just done speaking when Neil suddenly pulled her into a hug. He whispered, “Wait for me. I’ll be back.”
“Alright.”
Neil left immediately after.
By the time he reached the clubhouse, Ada was no longer conscious of her actions. She kept throwing herself at Curtis.
Curtis was in a difficult position. If he had known that he would end up in such an awkward situation, he would have rejected Neil’s request to help Ada with Perficient.
The moment Neil appeared in the private room, Curtis said, “Mr. Remus, I’m at my wits‘ end.”
Neil seemed indifferent. “I’ve called a doctor. Hang on a little longer.”
Curtis was at a loss of words.
Fortunately, he did not have a girlfriend. Otherwise, he would not be able to explain this to her.
“What happened?”
“I brought Miss Ada to meet a potential business partner, and that person spiked her drink. It was too late by the time I realized it.”
Neil’s expression turned cold. “I don’t want to see that person in Ryoln City ever again. Make sure that no information is leaked. If you encounter a situation like this again, just call a doctor over. I won’t entertain this anymore.”
Neil only came because Curtis hung up as soon as he told him that Ada had been drugged at Emperor Restaurant. After that, Neil could no longer reach him via phone.
An hour had passed when the doctor arrived to examine Ada.
“Mr. Remus, Miss Ada should be fine now. She should recover after a good night’s sleep.”
After the doctor left, Neil looked at Curtis indifferently.
“Get her a hotel room.”
Curtis picked up his damaged cell phone and spoke pitifully, “Mr. Remus, when I called you earlier, Miss Ada snatched my phone away. She dropped it on the floor, and it’s not working
anymore…
Neil’s expression immediately darkened. A few minutes later, he said, “Use my cell phone.”
Curtis left once he booked a hotel room and sent Ada there.
Neil left in annoyance as well.
After he returned to the mansion, he knocked on Silvia’s door but no one answered.
He frowned and realized that the door was unlocked. He opened it and realized that she was
not inside.
A hint of coldness flashed across his eyes. He took out his cell phone and gave her a call, but her phone was off.
It was very late at night. Where could she possibly be? On top of that, she had switched off her cell phone!
He called Curtis immediately and ordered, “Find out where Silvia is!”
Shortly after Neil left earlier, Silvia received a phone call and went out as well.
She took a taxi to Lose Demon and entered the largest private room.
As soon as she opened the door, the commotion in the private room died down.
A man in a devil face mask smiled. He was seated in the middle, and he seemed to be in a good mood.
“Iris, do you like my gift?”
There were two rows of well–trained bodyguards in the private room. However, they were not as scary as the man who was seated at the center.
Silvia sat down without flinching and calmly said, “Scorpion, I was set up when I received the task to kill you. It was an accident. What will it take for you to let me go?”
An hour ago, Dominic called her and told her that Scorpion was in Lose Demon. Therefore, she rushed over to set the record straight.
Scorpion took a sip of alcohol and laughed. “You killed so many of my brothers. How do you think we should settle this?”
Silvia’s eyesConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
turned cold. “I’m sure you’re aware of Full Moon’s rules. If it’s revenge you want, you should go after the person who set the task to kill you.”
Scorpion laughed, but his eyes were cold.
“Have you forgotten that I’ve left Full Moon? I don’t have to follow its rules anymore.”
Silvia frowned and asked, “Does this mean that only one of us will live?”
