I don’t know Sally,” I answered perfunctorily. “I’m just glad everyone’s safe.”
After returning to my desk, I checked Adam’s schedule today. It turned out that he was going to meet with Colin this afternoon.
A smile tugged at the corners of my lips. Well, it seems there was going to be another good show today.
I lowered my head and pretended to be busy at work, lest others see the smile that I couldn’t seem to hide.
Sure enough, later that afternoon, Colin entered the office building. However, as soon as he entered the hall, he was surrounded by Adam’s bodyguards.
Adam slowly walked out and stopped in front of him.
“What on earth are you doing?” Colin was stunned-indignant, even. “Adam, what is the meaning of this? Is this how you treat guests?”
Adam nodded at the bodyguard, who then immediately forced Colin onto his knees.

“Adam!” Colin winced in pain. “What the hell are you doing?”
His eyes were bloodshot with anger, his nostrils flaring uncontrollably. At this point, he couldn’t even pretend to be polite. Before answering him, Adam sneered and kicked him hard in the chest. “Guests? That’s funny. Who do you think you are? You owe me a lot of money, dear Colin. How dare you steal the I0U?”
Adam looked at him with disdain. “You’re no guest here.”
“IOU?” Colin was dumbfounded. “What’re you talking about?”
“Don’t play dumb with me. You had someone steal the IOU from my office this morning.”
Colin was shocked. “You’re wrong! Although I did send someone to do something for me in Roz Town, it wasn’t this
“Keep pretending, I dare you.” Adam Looked at him coldly.
Colin was growing desperate. “I’m not lying! If you don’t believe me talk to the thief!”
Hearing this, Adam kicked him again-harder this time. “The thief has ‘long gone!” he roared.
Debra’s POV:
Adam kicked Colin in the face.
Colin spit out a mouthful of blood. When he raised his head again, he was missing a front tooth, and blood trickled down the corners of his mouth. He was a miserable sight.
“No, I didn’t do anything…”
Colin was lisping now, due to the missing tooth, yet he still wanted to defend himself. Adam, on the other hand, wasn’t having it. He firmly believed that Colin was the one behind this morning’s robbery.
