Chapter 43: How Can I Kill you

Adam's office, the highest authority in Dragon Group.

After Frederick entered, he handed over a mobile phone and said, "This was found under Ethan's Porsche after he avoided him."

Adam played with the phone, and his deep and cunning eyes seemed unsurprised.

"How did Mr. Davis know that Miss Baker had a second phone?" Frederick asked after observing Adam's expression.

"Something as important as a phone, if left at home twice, she must have discovered the locator long ago," Adam said, his sharp eyes seeing through everything.

Frederick hadn't expected Alice to be so clever, something most people wouldn't have thought of.

Adam glanced at Frederick's expression and said, "Don't underestimate her, or you'll fall for her tricks."

"Should we take her to the Imperial Garden for control?" Frederick asked.

Adam narrowed his deep and mysterious eyes, remaining silent for a moment before speaking, "The pleasure of hunting lies in the fact that the prey must run, not be locked in a cage. Have you been to Marumi Plastic Surgery yet?"

"No."

"Go and take a look." Adam stood up and picked up his black coat from the back of the chair.

"Yes, sir," Frederick said respectfully.

Marie Plastic Surgery issued an urgent notice, and the big boss personally arrived.

The entire hospital was in a state of panic, as if facing a major enemy.

Only Alice stood there stiffly.

"Don't just stand there, let's go!" Claire pulled her and brought Alice back to her senses, rushing to the front desk to greet the boss.

The high and low-level staff of Marie Plastic Surgery stood on both sides of the door, in a neat and standard posture, waiting for the boss's arrival.

Even before the boss arrived, the oppressive atmosphere had already spread throughout the hospital!

This was Adam's first inspection after buying Marie Plastic Surgery.Alice felt uneasy. Was Adam really here just to inspect the hospital?

In the Dragon Group's industry, Marie Plastic Surgery was just a drop in the bucket. Was it really worth his personal visit?

A black Rolls-Royce appeared outside, and everyone's nerves were stretched to the limit.

The bodyguard opened the car door, and a tall figure with long legs stepped out. His imposing aura made it hard to breathe.

Adam walked into the lobby of Marie Plastic Surgery with a calm and rhythmic pace, and the general manager immediately came forward to flatter him.

As Adam walked, his sharp gaze scanned the faces in the crowd, and then slightly paused on a certain face, as if locked on.

Zhang Luo's face immediately blushed, and her heart beat faster.

After Adam disappeared into the elevator, she excitedly covered her chest and said, "Just now... Mr. Davis was looking at me, right? He was looking at me, wasn't he?"

"It must be because of you! You're the campus beauty at Marumi, after all!" someone flattered.

They knew that the current campus beauty had climbed up the ranks and was doing well."Mr. Davis must have been attracted to your beauty. Beautiful women really have good luck!"

"If anything good happens, Zhang Luo, don't forget about us!"

Zhang Luo was overjoyed by her colleagues' flattery and couldn't hide her happiness.

Claire listened silently and then whispered to Alice next to her, "Mr. Davis really did look over here just now. Could he really be interested in her? She's really not that great..."

Alice lowered her head, not knowing who Adam was looking at, but it had nothing to do with her.

Adam went to the second-floor office area, where the staff were busy with their work.

Alice was just about to walk to the nurse's station when a high-ranking employee called out to her, "Come over here for a moment."

Alice's face turned pale, but she didn't show it too much and followed the person.

Other nurses whispered to each other, "What's going on?"

"I don't know."

"What else could it be? She's probably getting fired! Look at her unlucky face!" Zhang Luo said as she walked over.

Alice was led all the way to the office door. She didn't need to ask who was inside.

The office door knocked, and Alice heard a low, intimidating voice responding inside before entering.

The man sitting in the office chair was dressed entirely in black, exuding an air of nobility and mystery. His gaze was fixed on Alice, as if he were looking at his prey.

"Do you have something to tell me?" Alice trembled when her gaze met his dark eyes.

"Your recovery is going well," he said in a low, magnetic voice.

Alice lowered her head slightly, and the horrifying memories flooded back, causing her body to shiver.

"You came here just to ask about that?" she asked, her voice trembling.

"Come here," he commanded in a low, irresistible tone.

Alice's heart skipped a beat, and she didn't dare hesitate for too long. Suppressing her fear, she took a step forward and approached the devil.

As she approached Adam, her wrist was suddenly grabbed, and she was pulled towards him.

"Ah!" Alice stumbled forward, and her hands instinctively reached out to support herself, landing on Adam's sturdy thigh.

She could feel the texture of his thigh muscles, which were full of strength.

Her palms felt as if they were burning, and just as she was about to move them, Adam's intimidating voice rang in her ear, "Don't move."

Alice leaned forward, her hands still on his thigh, facing Adam's front side. Her breathing was unsteady as she asked, "What do you want from me?"

A mobile phone suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, shocking Alice.

"Do you recognize this?" Adam asked.

Alice dared not speak. Fear had left her throat dry, and she instinctively swallowed.

Of course she recognized it. It was the one she had put under the passenger seat of Ethan's Porsche.

How did he find it? Did Ethan discover it and tell him?

Regardless of how he found out, it seemed that Adam knew what she had done!

So, he came here for this...

"Tell me, how can I kill you?" Adam's voice was full of brutality, and he leaned in closer to her, his thin lips almost touching her ear. "Like that night?"

Alice's body trembled uncontrollably. She didn't know if it was because of the scorching breath on her ear, or because of his words, or both. "No... I'll die... Please don't..."

She didn't even dare to think about it.

It was too terrifying!

This man was definitely a real demon!

Adam's gaze softened slightly as he took in her reaction. He reached out and hooked his fingers under her chin, forcing her face to turn towards him. "What else have you done behind my back?" he asked.

Alice bit her lip and then let go, saying, "Nothing. I was just preparing to escape... But you took my passport, so even if I found it through GPS, it would be useless..."

Her voice was trembling.

With her hand trembling on Adam's leg, she asked in a weak voice,"Can I...can I stand up now?"

She didn't get Adam's permission, but instead heard a knocking on the door.

Adam's eyebrows furrowed and a cold, displeased look flashed in his dark eyes.
