Chapter 1240 Let Me Tell You a Story
“Hold on!” Adam squeezed through the crowd and shouted, “Erin! How dare you do such a thing! I would never let it happen!”
Adam was even a hero admired by all in Struyria!
Ysabel stood beside Adam and shouted, “Mr. Adam is the hero in Struyria! He wouldn’t stand by and watch
Sun die!”
“Adam?” Erin sneered and said, “I won’t let you off either!”
“Tell me what you want!” Adam said, “What will it take for you to release Sun?”
“All three of you!” Erin said menacingly, “None of you will escape!”
“You’re quite confident!” Adam scoffed and said.
“Adam!” Erin shouted, “I want you to break your own wrist now, or I’ll throw Sun off the building!”
Adam fell silent.
“Emmeline, Lizbeth!” Erin continued to say, “I want you two to disfigure yourselves! Otherwise, prepare to collect Sun’s body! I’ll jump with him!”
“I agree!” Adam raised his arm and asked, “Which one do you want?”
“The right wrist!” Erin said. Wasn’t it the right wrist that you used to step on me? This is called payback! You
deserve it!
Without hesitation, Adam snatched a gun from the bodyguard and was about to shoot his right wrist.
“Adam!” Adrien held Adam and said, “Don’t be fooled!”
“Adam!” Abel said tremblingly, “I understand your intention, but if someone must break a wrist, it should be me! Sun is my son!”
“I want Adam’s wrist!” Erin shouted angrily, “Or I can’t quench my hatred!”
“Are you Evelyn?” Adam frowned and said, “I remember that I broke Evelyn’s right wrist!”
“I’ve told you I’m not. Erin yelled, “Will you break it, or shall I jump with him?”
Adam immediately shot himself in the right wrist. The blood gushed out as his right wrist broke off.
“Adam!”
Adrien and Abel were about to cry.
“Adam!” Emmeline said, “I’m sorry!” She was choked with tears.
“It’s fine.” Adam smiled and said, “You and Abel saved my life earlier.”
Emmeline sniffled and took out a needle to stop Adam’s bleeding. She seemed to be holding back her tears. On the other hand, Ysabel tore her skirt and bandaged his wrist.

“Erin,” Emmeline said sternly, “What else do you want?”
“Next, I want you and Lizbeth to disfigure yourselves!”
“Deal!” Emmeline nodded and said, “You must release Sun!”
“As long as you and Lizbeth disfigure yourselves, I’ll let him go!”
“Agreed!”
“Deal!”
“Mummy,” Helios said. “Don’t listen to her; she won’t keep her word!”
“Shut up!” Erin choked him and said, “Keep quiet, or I’ll throw you down now!”
“You bastard, I’m not afraid of you!” Helios said while wriggling under her arm.
“Sun!” Abel said coldly, “Stop moving! Listen to my words!” One more move and both might perish! “Sun.” Emmeline stared at Helios and said, “Listen to our words; we know what to do!”
Helios fell silent and stopped moving. He trusted Emmeline and Abel.
“Sun, Emmeline said, “I’ll tell you a story. After that, I’ll disfigure myself. Be a good boy.”
Helios remained silent and stared intently at Emmeline. Mummy wanted me to behave….
“Once upon a time, there was a little frog. Emmeline said slowly. “It saw that the little duck playing with it had two legs.”
Helios frowned. I had heard this story from Mummy before. What does it mean now?
Helios listened attentively.
