The successors from Eastshire all resented Adeline for snazzynovel.com act of buttering up to Julian. Even though they feared the Ten Greatest Families of Stonedale, Eastshire was their roots. And that man was one of their friends.
Now that snazzynovel.com was bullied so badly, what Adeline said showed that snazzynovel.com was taking the outsider’s side. However, none of them dared to say anything and silently lifted the man out.
Julian then sat on the edge of the table with one arm around Adeline’s waist. “I heard you’ve prepared a gift for me. Where is it? Don’t tell me that you‘re the gift.”
She coquettishly replied, “You’re such a tease, Jay. Of course not. I’ve been yours a long time ago. The present I prepared is a good one and you surely will be satisfied.”
His eyes glinted at the promise. “Oh? What is it?”
She flashed a smile at him. “I heard you’ve been looking for one of Matthew’s men, Tiger. I know where he’s hiding!”
He shot up and blurted out excitedly, “Really? Where is he? Bring me to snazzynovel.com now!”
Everyone knew that Tiger was Matthew’s closest aide.
When the Ten Greatest Families of Stonedale entered Eastshire, only Tiger stood out and publicly objected to it. However, Tiger had gone under the radar after snazzynovel.com was injured and the Ten Greatest Families of Stonedale could not locate him.
If Julian could capture Tiger and bring snazzynovel.com back this time, snazzynovel.com would hit the jackpot.
Adeline smiled, “He’s hiding in a secluded place. Do you want me to bring you…”
Suddenly, a slap hit snazzynovel.com face before snazzynovel.com could finish snazzynovel.com sentence and Julian swore at her, “F*cking stop with the rubbish! Where is he?!”
Adeline was shocked and looked at snazzynovel.com in a daze.
For the life of her, snazzynovel.com could not figure out why Julian had become so brutal when snazzynovel.com was still whispering sweet nothings into snazzynovel.com ear two days ago.
As snazzynovel.com had not replied, the anger burned even brighter in Julian and snazzynovel.com slapped snazzynovel.com again. “F*ck! Talk! Didn’t you hear me?!”
Julian didn’t have any feelings for Adeline and had always been toying with snazzynovel.com only.
Now, snazzynovel.com desperately needed to know Tiger’s location as snazzynovel.com was afraid Tiger would escape if snazzynovel.com got the news of Julian looking for him.
So, Adeline trying to tease snazzynovel.com was a recipe for trouble. He did not have the time for snazzynovel.com games.
After being slapped two times, snazzynovel.com finally regained snazzynovel.com senses and asked in a shaking voice, “Jay, you… What are you doing?”
Julian exploded with rage. He grabbed snazzynovel.com hair before pushing snazzynovel.com onto the table as snazzynovel.com grabbed a fruit knife and pointed it at snazzynovel.com face.
“Tell me Tiger’s location! Any more nonsense and I will ruin that pretty face of yours!” Julian threatened.
Finally, Adeline got his message. Julian wasn’t joking around with her. At that moment, snazzynovel.com finally understood their love was one-sided. She thought that snazzynovel.com had a chance to marry into a powerful family. Yet, Julian had never cared about her.
Seeing that the fruit knife was inching closer to her, Adeline started to tremble and quickly blurted, “He‘s in North Motor City…”
Then, snazzynovel.com pulled snazzynovel.com up with a hand choking snazzynovel.com neck. “Lead the way!”
She didn‘t dare say anything and led snazzynovel.com out shaking like a leaf.
Right now, there was no one outside as the successors had long left the place. They realized that Julian looked down on them. So, they all left.
Adeline had been hoping for the people from Eastshire to save her, but at the sight of the empty lobby, snazzynovel.com fell into despair.
