Chapter 496

She pursed her lips and calmly said, “Since your enemy is Duke, you can take revenge by yourself.
Can you give me back my daughter?”

“What a ruthless woman!” Earley sneered. “He’s sacrificing himself to save you. Don’t you feel touched
at all?”

“Why would I feel touched ?” Adina coldly said, “If not because of him, why would my daughter and I
end up being threatened by you? Earley Wynters, you’re here to take revenge on Duke. He’s now in
your hands, so you can even kill him if you want! I just want to see my daughter now!”

“Patience. Let’s finish watching the show.”

Earley raised his hand and pressed down on Adina’s shoulders. His head was very close to hers.

The breath that he exhaled onto Adina’s face was filled with coldness.

She indifferently stared at the surveillance screen. She saw about eight people beating Duke up.
Duke’s head was bleeding profusely. She saw Duke’s black eyes staring at the sack that was hung up
high in the distance. She slowly clenched her fists, and her fingertips dug deep into her palms. Only
this could help her retain her calm expression

A pool of blood spread across the damp floor in the warehouse

Duke felt that he was losing his strength. This cannot go on.’ He told himself.

If he really went down, Earl would never have the good conscience to spare Adina.



He gathered his strength and got up swiftly. The two muscular men who sat on his body and kept
punching him were caught off guard. They tumbled to the floor.

When he stood up, those muscular men were shocked . Even if his body was full of injuries, those
muscular men still took a step backward by instinct.

“Earl Winters, I know you’re watching me from somewhere!”

Duke said coldly, and his voice was low and cold with ruthlessness.

“As long as you let Adina go, I’ll stand here and let you do as you please.”

He pursed his lips. “Even if you want to kill me, I won’t say no! But I have one condition : you have to let
Adina go!”

His voice spread into the office.

Earley pursed his lips and smiled. “Adina, are you touched? This man is willing to die for you.”

Adina suddenly narrowed her eyes.

She suddenly loosened her fists and stood up.

Before Earley registered what she wanted to do, a skinny yet strong hand grabbed his neck.

The knife on the table that he had played with was also grabbed by the woman.

Adina grabbed the knife and pointed it at Earley’s jugular. She chuckled. “Mr. Wynters, is this game
fun?”

Earley’s gaze darkened completely.



He was a conceited and arrogant man. So after he brought Adina over, he had not tied her up.

As long as this woman thought her daughter was in his hand, then she would not fight back. He
narrowed his eyes. “It looks like you don’t want to see your daughter anymore, Miss Daugherty.”

“Earley, don’t lie to me. You don’t even have my daughter.” Adina scoffed. “I followed you here
because I didn’t want to take any risks, and because my daughter is my life! But I already came up with
a possibility just now, which is that my daughter is not with you!

“If Mel was really in your hands, Duke would not have said those words,” she coldly said. “He would
say that as long as you let Mel and I go, his life will be yours! But from the beginning to the end, he did
not mention our daughter even once! In other words, my daughter is very safe now!”

She looked around. “Mr. Wynters, now your life is in my hands. Is there anything you have to say for
yourself ?”
