Kendrick strode to the front of Adam and asked anxiously, “Adam, do you know where Nia is?”
Adam glanced at Kendrick who was filled with worry, then cast his gaze to Ryan’s chilly expression.
“I’ve moved her to a safe place,” Adam said unhurriedly.
The worry in Kendrick’s eyes turned into joy. “Adam, are you speaking the truth? Is Nia really safe?”
Adam smiled and looked at Kendrick. “If what I say is false, how could you have found this place so easily?”
Hearing this, Ryan’s gaze darkened.
“Adam, were you the one who told Kendrick of this place?” Ryan’s tone was cold. His gaze was even more terrifying as he stared at Adam sharply with his falcon-like eyes.
Adam shook his head. “No. To be precise, you told Kendrick yourself, but it’s also because he has a keen perception that he could find this place.”
“What do you mean by this?!” Ryan was beginning to lose his cool. His whole body was gradually becoming restless.
Hearing this, Kendrick further confirmed a fact.
About half an hour ago, Adam’s appearance in Ryan’s phone camera had been deliberate and was prepared.
That was why Adam had immediately brought the medical box into the room and helped Niamh stop the bleeding at the first possible moment.
Ryan had been shocked by Niamh’s death-seeking behavior at the time and did not even notice that Adam made a signal when he opened the lid of the medical box.
He had tapped his fingertips on the small card on the top of the lid where an address was written clearly on the card.
When he saw that, Kendrick felt a hint of hesitation, but then he thought of the mysterious doctor who saved him previously and everything seemed to be linked.
Adam was actually a good guy!
Adam and Kendrick looked at each other, a clear light flashing across their eyes.
They tacitly understood what the other was thinking.
“Adam! Talk!” Ryan demanded sharply. He stepped forward suddenly and grabbed Adam’s collar.
A stern expression suddenly made its way onto Adam’s refined and gentle face. In his eyes arose a never before seen intense light.
He took Ryan’s wrist and pushed it away before gently smoothing out the collar of his white coat.
“Ryan, the mission of a doctor or nurse has always been to save people.”
Adam’s answer shocked Ryan as he flew into a rage. “What are you talking about, Adam?”
However, Adam remained calm. His eyes, however, were indignant. “I didn’t want to expose you at a time like this, but the worst thing you’ve ever done is to hurt other people again and again in front of a doctor.”
“What?” Ryan laughed sarcastically. “So you told Kendrick that I was here?”
“Yes,” Adam admitted frankly. “Not only did I tell him about this place, but I also saved him after you injured him and sent him to the hospital. When you threatened him with Eveline, I also told him that she’ll be fine.”
Adam told him everything he had done.
All of these were exactly as Kendrick thought.
The mysterious man who had been helping him was indeed Adam Brown!
However, Ryan was completely stunned after listening to this.
He looked at the calm and collected Adam with a ridiculous expression. Suddenly, his eyes darkened.
“Adam, it turns out that you’ve been staying by my side as a spy!”
“No, you’re wrong. I’m not a spy.” Adam was still very calm when he gave his answer. “I’m just doing something that I want to do which I think is right.”
“What did you say?” Ryan gritted his teeth and spat out those four cold words.
“Ryan, do you know why even after I gave Eveline so many shots of the so-called memory wiping reagent, she still doesn’t have any symptoms?” Adam asked with a smile.
After Ryan heard this, he could already guess what was going on.
“Yes, what I’ve been giving her isn’t a reagent to wipe her memories. Instead, it’s just ordinary nutritional injections.”
“…”
“Ryan, there’s nothing in this world that can manipulate the human heart, and the human heart can never be manipulated.”
After Adam said that in a serious manner, the white coat on his body seemed unusually holy and clean at the moment.
“Ryan, you don’t have to struggle anymore. Eveline’s parents are safe now, and you don’t have any information that can be used against them in your hands. On the contrary, I don’t only have the evidence of your crimes in the Stygian Johnson Gang over the years, but I’m also the most advantageous witness. You don’t have to quibble anymore because you can’t escape anyway.”
“Hmph.” Ryan sneered. He did not expect Adam to not be in the same boat as him.
He thought he was on his way to winning the game, but in fact, he had become a clown who was played!
He had not even figured out Adam, let alone Kendrick.
“Ryan, as a senior agent of Interpol, you know the law but still broke it!”
“Now, we have solid proof that you murdered, absconded, falsely imprisoned others, and engaged in illegal trades to obtain improper benefits!”
A colleague who came with Kendrick sternly accused Ryan of the crimes and took out a pair of handcuffs.
“Ryan Jones, we’re going to formally arrest you now!”
“Heh, arrest me?” Ryan smiled nonchalantly before glancing at Kendrick’s sharp and cold eyes with his dark ones. “Kendrick, do you really think I can be caught by you so easily? Let me tell you this. You don’t end the game, I do!”
After Ryan finished saying that, he jumped to the back of the sofa with much agility and took out the gun that he had prepared beforehand to shoot Kendrick who was going to capture him.
Kendrick was able to evade the bullet astutely, and at the same time, he took out the gun at his waist. However, when he was about to catch up, he seemed to have thought of something important and suddenly turned around.
He looked at Adam who was standing in the same place. At this moment, he could not let go of the person who was still hiding in the depths of his heart.
He wanted to ask a question, but when he looked into Adam’s eyes, he felt that it was no longer necessary.
“If he resists arrest again, just shoot him directly!”
Kendrick heard such a command from one of his colleagues.
He did not delay anymore and immediately started to hunt Ryan down with the rest of them.
However, Ryan seemed to have expected such a thing to happen a long time ago. He got onto his motorcycle that was parked in the garage and sped away.
One of the Interpol agents shot Ryan as he was getting away on a motorcycle. Although he did not hit Ryan’s vital parts, the bullet passed through his arm and injured him.
“Get him!”
The leader commanded. Before he set off, he felt very sorry for Kendrick when he saw Kendrick’s worried face. “Kendrick, I know you’re worried about your wife now, so leave Ryan to us. Go and find your wife.”
Kendrick did not delay. After thanking him, he ran back to Adam.
“Adam, where’s Nia? Where did you put her?”
Adam seemingly furrowed his eyebrows and said in a calm tone, “Are you confident that you can catch Ryan?”
“I can’t let Nia live another day in distress,” Kendrick said firmly, “Adam, take me to Nia.”
Adam did not say anything and only nodded.
On the way there, Adam observed Kendrick’s eagerness and worry. Although he did not want to scare Kendrick very much, Adam still reminded him. “I think you’d better prepare yourself before you see Eveline.”
Kendrick’s restless heart suddenly missed a beat. “Why did you say that? Adam, did something happen to her? Tell me, is something wrong with Nia?”
Seeing that Kendrick was so anxious that he could not even drive the car properly, Adam tried to calm him down. “She’s not in any life-threatening danger, but…”
Adam wanted to tell him, but he stopped himself as he was worried that Kendrick would continue to overthink. As such, he pointed in front of them. “You can stop now. She’s in the car at the corner in front.”
In the car?
Kendrick suddenly stepped on the accelerator to speed up, and when he drove the car to the location pointed out by Adam, he quickly stepped on the brake.
After parking the car hastily, Kendrick strode to the side of the car with the half-opened window.
The moment Adam unlocked the car, Kendrick immediately opened the car door.
Kendrick felt a dull pain in his heart when he saw Niamh, who was wearing a plain white dress, lying on the backseat.
He bent down and got into the car, placing his handsome face in front of Niamh. “Nia,” Kendrick whispered, raising his hand to stroke Niamh’s colorless cheeks. However, Niamh did not respond.
She seemed to be deep in slumber. Then, Kendrick’s palm lightly fell on Niamh’s head. When his fingertips ran across her short hair, he felt tears stinging the corners of his eyes involuntarily.
