Chapter 190 Cross My Heart

“What does he want?” Benjamin was worried.

The Adelmars hoped to steer clear of another conflict with the Rykers. It would only spell trouble if Emmeline’s cover was blown.

“He has his suspicions, but I managed to confuse Adam. I doubt he can separate the truth from the lies now.”

“Adam is a cunning man. You can fool him for now, but you know you can deceive him forever.”

Benjamin shook his head and went downstairs to talk to Daisy.

“Give Ms. Louise something to sober up with. She’s rambling on like a drunkard.”

Daisy chuckled. “Mr. Benjamin, you should’ve seen the way Ms. Louise had Adam fooled. It was awesome!”

With a frown, Benjamin uttered, “Don’t underestimate him. Adam is a ruthless man. You can fool him once, but you must update me with anything related to Ms. Louise. Don’t let her take risks. Just because she’s mischievous doesn’t mean you should keep up with her antics too.”

“Got it, Mr. Benjamin.” The fear started to creep into Daisy.
