Chapter 159: Request
Sophia smiled looking at Adam. And Adam understood what she wanted to say. Her smile gave him permission.
Then he looked at Anderson. Anderson said looking at Adam "I need your help." Hearing this Adam shook his head. He said "I have already heard this. Tell me the whole story. What is happening?"
Then Anderson said "I have to save Lily. She is in trouble." Hearing this Adam was surprised. And he remembered Anderson's words. A little while ago when he was saying that he was ready to do anything for his love.
Then Adam said "What happened to Lily?" After hearing this sadness suddenly appeared on Anderson's face.
His shoulders slumped. And he said "Lily's father is a businessman." Hearing this Adam shook his head. He said "Yes I know this. But what about it?"
Then Anderson said "His father and his whole family are missing. They have been gone for the last few days." Hearing this Adam was very surprised.
Then Adam said "What do you mean missing?" Hearing this Anderson looked at Adam. He said "I told my father this too. But he is giving me a very scary answer. Because of which I feel that you can do something about this." Hearing this Adam got even more confused.
He said "What answer did your father give you that you got scared?" After hearing this Andrew remembered that thing and looked at Adam.
And he said "My father said to forget it. He said Lily has gone to a place from where it is almost impossible to bring her back."
Hearing this Adam's ears perked up. He knew what this meant. If Anderson's father who was a police commissioner was saying this then the underworld was definitely involved in this. It was a clear sign. Then Adam looked at Anderson.
And he said "You said that Lily's father is a businessman. Can you tell me about him?" After hearing this Anderson whose face was still very sad shook his head. And he said "I have brought as much detail as I could about him. Please save my Lily. No one knows the underworld except you."
Hearing this Adam was a little surprised. He thought "How do you know that I know about the underworld?" Then Anderson looked at Adam and said "Actually when you attacked us..." After saying this he suddenly became quiet.
Then Adam said in anger "If you want my help then you will have to tell me the whole story." Then Anderson with a shocked expression raised his hand. And he said "No no I am ready to tell you. Actually we were not going to let you go like that. And I had made a plan that if we can't touch you then why don't we put some kind of bounty on you. I had seen your strength. And I knew that I or my friends together could not defeat you. That is why I had hired a professional."
Hearing this Adam's face filled with realization. He understood how Anderson had found out about his connection to the underworld.
Then Anderson said "That man immediately refused me after seeing your photo. And he advised me to stay as far away from you as possible. Because you are very famous in the underworld." Hearing this Adam was a little surprised. He thought that that professional would only tell him about Adam. Not that he would praise him. But Adam felt good hearing this. But he did not show it on his face.
And he said in his mind "I think I have become quite famous." However Adam stopped this thought and said "Okay." And he held out his hand. Seeing which Anderson understood. And he immediately took out that file from his bag. And he gave it to Adam's hand.
Then Anderson said "I can't come with you." Hearing this Adam turned around. And he said "When did I say that you can come with me?" Then Anderson started to turn and leave.
And without looking at Anderson who was standing behind he said "When did I say that you will come with me?" Then Anderson looked at Adam who was leaving. And taking a deep breath he shouted loudly. And he said "I am ready to accept any punishment from you. I will be indebted to you for my whole life. Just save my Lily." Hearing this Adam looked at Anderson.
He turned around for a moment. And he turned back again. And he said "It seems that love is the biggest weakness of a person." After saying this he left from there. Without turning back.
Adam reached his home. Where all four of them were already present. Adam put the file on the table. Where Samanta and Monica were already sitting.
On the sofa Cyan and Drake were sitting. Monica looked at the file. And opening it she started to read the contents in it. And then her eyes widened.
Monica said "This man's name is George." After hearing this Cyan who was reading a book sitting on the sofa suddenly stood up. And he immediately came next to Monica and read that file. And he said "George. Why do you want to know about this man?"
Hearing this Adam looked at Cyan. And he said "His daughter. You must know about her." Hearing this Cyan and Monica both shook their heads.
Then Adam said "His whole family is missing. I have to find him." Hearing this Samanta who was looking at Adam this whole time put her elbow on the table and her hand on her mouth. And she smiled. And she said "I didn't know that the most famous target in the underworld also finds people."
Hearing this Adam looked at Samanta. Then Cyan said "I understand that this girl is your classmate. But this mission can be very difficult for us." After hearing this Drake suddenly stood up.
He came to Cyan. And he said "Mission. You said mission. No matter what mission it is we will definitely complete it in some way." Hearing this Monica Samanta and Cyan looked at Drake. Seeing this Drake immediately stepped back. And scared he raised his hands. He said "No no I was just joking."
Then Cyan let out a deep breath. And he said "Our target for now is to stay hidden in the shadows. Not to do a mission in front of everyone. As far as I have intelligence the Loko family will soon start to increase its influence in this country. And that will be a golden opportunity for us." Hearing this Adam let out a deep breath.
And he said "Okay then I will do this mission alone." Hearing this Cyan's eyes went to Adam. Then taking a deep breath Cyan said "Okay okay. You don't need to say that. We will do this mission with you."
Then Cyan looked at Monica.
Monica also shook her head and looking at Adam she said "George is a businessman in the eyes of the general public. But he is actually a middleman. Who handles the business of the Royal Families in this city. Because of which he gets a cut and security." After hearing this Adam now understood that Lily who was so rich was not because her father was a businessman.
But the money came from the underworld. Adam was also very surprised to see this. That these people had so much information. He was very impressed to see that to kill him these people had found out all of Adam's weaknesses and all his possible contacts.
Then Adam remembered one thing. And Adam looked at all of them. And he said "Do you know what happened to my friends?" Hearing this all of them suddenly became alert.
And looking at each other they looked at Adam. Then Adam smiled. And he said "So you know what happened to them." Then Drake said from behind "We should have understood at that time that what a big psychopath you are."
After hearing this Cyan immediately looked at Drake. His eyes were sharp with a silent warning. He said "You shouldn't have said that." He then looked at Adam. His expression was apologetic. He said "I apologize for him saying that."
Then Adam shook his head. He said "You don't need to apologize. I know what I am." His words were simple. A statement of fact. Then Monica looked at Adam. Her own eyes were wide with a new kind of curiosity and a little bit of fear. She said "Did you really kill your friends?"
Hearing this Adam remembered how he had killed his friends. He remembered the pain and the necessity of it. The memory was a sharp sting in his mind.
Then he smiled. It was a small and sad smile. He said "I'm really surprised to know how much information you people have about me. I think you people know more about me than I do."
After saying this Adam smiled again. And he thought to himself "Even though these people know so much about me even though they have peeled back so many layers of my life. They don't know my biggest secret. They don't know about my ability to return by death. And that is my greatest advantage. It is the one thing that will keep me alive. It is the one thing that will allow me to win."
