Alana stood beside Evelyn. They did not know each other. Nonetheless, both of them could not help but sneer. They were happy that Emmeline was finally dead. When Alana was smirking, someone grabbed her arm and thrust her into a storeroom.

Slap!

Alana was slapped in the face all of a sudden. She fell to the ground with her nose bleeding.

Lying on the floor, Alana covered her face. She glanced up and saw a pair of shiny leather shoes in front of her.

In a hurry, Alana looked up. It was Adam, He was glaring angrily at her.

"Mr. Adam..."

"Go to hell!" Adam kicked Alana angrily. "How dare you change my plan and shoot Emmeline? Are you out of your mind? Do you have a death wish?"

"I don't want Abel to die." Alana wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth. "I only want Emmeline dead. I hate her. I don't even want to see her face for a second."

"Who do you think you are? Do you think you're the boss?" Adam bawled. "I want Abel dead, not Emmeline! How dare you change my plan and tell the bodyguard to shoot Emmeline? Alana, I think I need to teach you a lesson today to show you who's the boss!"

Slap!

Adam slapped Alana in the face again.

"Mr. Adam... No... I..."

"I don't want to hear any excuses!" Adam grabbed Alana up and threw her against the wall.

Alana stood beside Evelyn. They did not know each other. Nonetheless, both of them could not help but sneer. They were happy that Emmeline was finally dead.

Alana hit the wall heavily and fell to the floor. Nonetheless, Adam was still mad. He kicked her on her chest again and again.

Alana spurted out blood. She was half dead.

"Take her to the Imperial Palace's dungeon. Let her rot there! Without permission, no one is allowed to let her out!" Adam ordered. Hearing that, several bodyguards quickly lifted Alana out of the storeroom.

Luca honked and sped all the way to the Ryker Hospital.

As soon as they reached the hospital, Abel carried Emmeline and rushed toward the emergency room.

"Help! Someone... Please save Emma!"

Dr. Carter and the other doctors rushed over.

In a hurry, they pushed Emmeline to the operating room.

Abel followed. Nonetheless, he was restricted to enter the operation room.

"Emma!" Abel cried. He could not help crouching down in front of the operating room. "Please, don't die."

"Abel" Suddenly, someone called Abel's name.

It was Benjamin. He rushed over and grabbed Abel's collar.

"What's going on? Why did Emma get shot?"

"I'm sorry. I failed to protect her." Abel cried. "I'm the one to blame."

"Of course, you're the one to blame!" Benjamin roared and gave Abel a punch. "How did Emma get shot? Damn, you better explain to me."

"I don't know..." Abel did not dodge away and was punched directly in the face. The pain on his face was nothing compared to the pain in his heart.

"Damn, Abel!" Benjamin bawled. "How could you not know? I will not spare you if something happens to Emma!"

"The security and bodyguards checked everything! I really don't know how could something like this happened..." Abel mumbled.

"What? How dare you said you've checked everything when someone entered the party with a gun?"

Benjamin was so angry that he gave Abel a punch again.

Suddenly, someone rushed forward and stood in front of Abel.

It was Evelyn.

"Who the hell are you?" Benjamin roared. "Get out of my way!"

"I'm Emmeline's friend," Evelyn answered. "There was an assassin at the party. Mr. Abel saved Emmeline when the assassin fired the first shot. But who knows the assassin fired again. It's not Mr. Abel's fault." "I don't want to hear any excuses!" Benjamin glared. "I won't let him off if anything happens to Emma."

"Mr. Benjamin, no one wants such things to happen. You can't put the blame on Abel!" Exclaimed Adrien.

"I trust him to protect Emma. And look what happens now. How could he fail to protect her?" Benjamin glared, pointing at Abel. He was really mad.
