He was about to get up when the bodyguard kicked his knee, and he crumbled onto the floor.
“I‘ll ask you again. Do you want to live?” Duke cocked the gun. Arden‘s eyes were red.
“Despicable! How could there be such a despicable person as you!”
Duke sneered. He should have been more despicable and cruel sooner, then Addy would not have
suffered so much. Duke raised his hand and fired a blank shot. He frowned impatiently.
“I‘ll give you another ten seconds to think about it and not a second more.”
Arden bit his cheek hard.
He did not fear his own death, but his wife and child... They were innocent, they did not even know that
he was in this kind of business...
He closed his eyes in despair. “Say it. What do you want me to do?”
?
“You will make me a list of names of all of Earl‘s subordinates in Sea City. As long as the list is
complete, your wife and child may continue to live their ordinary lives.” Arden silently lowered his head.
Once this list was handed over, more than a hundred of his brothers would die.
A hundred over brothers and his wife, which was more important?
Arden gritted his teeth. “I can‘t remember the list that well, can I have some time?” Duke smiled.
“Of course, you can, but before that, give me the remote for the biochip that Earl gave you.”
?
At that moment, Arden finally understood what Duke was going to such lengths for. The bio–chip
company was under his management. He knew better than anyone about the inner workings of the
company.
He opened his mouth and said, “The bio–chip can only be truly destroyed by destroying the database.
But only the boss knows where the Shura Company‘s databases are. Now that he‘s dead, the bio–chip
will stay in Adina‘s body for the rest of her life.” “Destroying all the remote controls would yield the
same effect,” Duke said coolly, “Where is it?”
Arden shook his hand. “It‘s the ring on my right hand.” The remote controls could be made into all kinds
of things: earrings, rings, necklaces, spectacles... anything at all. Duke took the ring off and tore it apart
violently. There was indeed a transistor circuit inside. He coldly said, “In three days, you will give me all
their names.”
With a wave of his hand, he let Arden be dragged away. In the mansion, Adina hugged Melody and
coaxed her softly, “The doctor said there‘s nothing wrong, there‘s just some swelling. Tomorrow it‘ll be
gone, so don‘t cry anymore, okay?”
Melody tugged on Adina‘s clothes, and said sadly, “Mommy, I‘m not scared of the pain, I was scared
you would ignore me again...”
“Mommy...” Harold came over.
“Spend more time with us, okay? I haven‘t eaten with Mommy in half a month!” Adina smiled and
nodded.
“Alright, tonight, let‘s have dinner together.” George‘s dark eyes lit up.
“Mommy, are you for real?”
“Of course. When have I ever lied to you?” Adina smiled and pulled Alden to her.
“Al, I‘m sorry. I shouldn‘t have told you to move out. I take it all back. Can you forgive me?”
Alden looked at Adina seriously, and he asked, “Mommy, has that problem been solved yet?”
Adina nodded. “Mommy‘s moving back in today. We‘ll never be separated again.”
The four children snuggled Adina. Mabel stood quietly, excluded from the comforting scene, and her
eyes were red–rimmed. She had seen Earl take Addy away with her own eyes, but Duke had brought
her back two hours later.
Then what about Earl?
Where was he? She wanted to ask him about it, but did not dare to.
