Chapter 1733


    Adrienne packed her stuff and got off work. At the entrance of the parking lot, she ran into Zelson


    who was dressed in a suit. It seemed that he was waiting for her there. "Mr. Zelson, is there


    anything else?"


    Zelson''s eyes fell on her. "I noticed that you were a little out of it at work today. Is something going


    on?"


    Adrienne wanted to deny it, but when she saw Zelson''s sincere eyes, she felt too guilty to lie. "It


    was a private matter, but it''s all over now."


    Zelson did not press for more details. "The rest of the case has to wait until the police recover the


    missing heads of the two corpses. There''s nothing to do at the forensic department tomorrow. You


    can rest at home for a day."


    "Mr. Zelson, you show up every day to work regardless. I''m just an insignificant employee. I don''t


    need to rest. Don''t underestimate me just because I''m a small fry. Actually, I''m pretty strong. There''s


    no need for me to rest."


    "You don''t have to act tough. I can tell you''re going through something. Just take the time off at


    home to recuperate."


    Adrienne scratched her head embarrassedly. "Mr. Zelson, I really don''t need to. I''m fine."


    Actually, if a person were to be tortured by Jefferson every day, no matter how mentally strong they


    were, they would break down. However, this was a personal matter, Adrienne did not want to bring it


    up in front of others.


    Zelson did not say anything and walked to the parking lot first. His car was very close to the


    elevator. He said, "Get in my car. I''ll send you home."


    Zelson didn''t like to talk much, which made people feel like he was a cold and indifferent man. His


    sudden invitation to drive Adrienne home made her feel touched. "Mr. Zelson, I don''t want to trouble


    you."


    Zelson added, "So many things have happenedtely. It''s alreadyte at night, it''s unsafe for a girl


    like you to go home alone." "You know it''s not safe for a girl to go home alone, and yet you insist on


    sending her back. What are you trying to do?" A deep male voice suddenly came from the side.


    Zelson didn''t recognise the voice, but Adrienne couldn''t be any more familiar with it.


    She looked up and saw that it was indeed Jefferson.


    He was leaning against the wall with his legs crossed. In his hand was a cigarette. His expression


    was as annoying as he could be.


    Adrienne didn''t want to talk to him. So, she pretended that she didn''t know him. She turned around


    and was about to get into Zelson''s car. Suddenly, Jefferson''s threatening voice rang, "Adrienne, if


    you take another step further, I will break your legs."


    Zelson was standing at the side. Adrienne didn''t want him to regard her as a coward. She gritted


    her teeth and threw caution to the wind. However, as soon as she lifted her foot, Jefferson rushed to


    her to catch her.


    Adrienne felt a gust of wind and before she knew it, Jefferson had already ced her over his


    shoulder. She was so mad that she wanted to scold him, but for some reason, she couldn''t find the


    appropriate words.


    She could only watch as Jefferson stuffed her into his shy car as though she was some kind of


    ornament.


    Why did she say that his car was too shy?


    Few men liked to drive bright red cars after all. However, Jefferson adored it as if he had to be


    ostentatious to show that he was well-off.


    It was not until the car had already sped off that Adrienne said, "What are you doing?"


    Jefferson did not say a word.


    Adrienne asked again, "You were the one who asked me to get out of your sight and never to show


    up in front of you again. Yet, now you''vee to look for me. Are you going back on your own


    words?"


    "Pfft... If I hadn''te to find you, would you have left with another man?" Jefferson questioned as


    he turned his head to the side and looked at her coldly.


    First of all, she had never nned to ept Zelson''s offer. Even if she did, what was wrong with


    getting into a colleague''s car?


    Adrienne stayed silent. This made Jefferson even more furious. "Adrienne, will you only be satisfied


    when I eventually die from fury?"


    Adrienne was at a loss for words.


    She felt wronged.


    When did she ever annoy him?


    She thought about it and guessed that maybe it was because of the blind date. She quickly took out


    her cell phone and checked the bnce on her bank card. She didn''t have much, but it was all she


    had in her savings. "I know it was my fault that I got drunk and slept with you. I took away your


    virginity and I shouldpensate you for it. I know you are notcking in money, but this is all I


    have. Give me your bank ount number and I will transfer all of my savings to you. Tomorrow, we


    can go to the City Hall to get our divorce papers signed. That way, you can openly go after that girl


    you like."


    Screech!


    The speeding car suddenly came to a halt, which frightened Adrienne. She asked, "What''s wrong


    with you, Mr. Hefner?"


    His face turned red. "Adrienne, do you want to divorce me?"


    "Do you not want to?" Adrienne had a confused look on her face.


    "It can''t be," she thought.


    Did she misunderstand what he meant again?


    Jefferson replied, "Are you blind?"


    He wanted to gouge out whichever of her eyes that had misinterpreted his actions as an intention to


    divorce her.


    Under his devouring gaze, Adrienne guessed that he had wanted to be the one to suggest the


    divorce due to his inted ego.


    She swallowed and said cautiously, "Just pretend I haven''t said anything. Why don''t you ask me


    then? Please, don''t be angry."


    Jefferson was astounded by her words.


    He was dumbfounded.


    He got extremely exasperated.


    Adrienne looked at him carefully. "What do you want me to do? Can you just tell me?"


    He stared at her for a long time. Finally, he asked, "How much do you have?"


    Adrienne replied honestly, "Not much, only a hundred and twenty thousand dors."


    "Do you think you can pay for a night with me with a hundred and twenty thousand dors? How


    cheap do you think I am?"


    "My entire savings are a hundred and twenty thousand. I need at least twenty thousand to survive,


    right? Can I just give you a hundred thousand instead?"


    Jefferson was so angry that his teeth chattered. He grabbed her cell phone and entered his bank


    ount number. "Transfer to me everything you have. You''re not allowed to keep a single cent."


    Adrienne''s expression was bitter and she was very reluctant to do so. Nevertheless, she assumed


    that transferring money to him could smooth things over. She could only grit her teeth and transfer


    all her savings. "I''ve transferred everything to you."


    Soon, Jefferson received the notification. After confirming it, he started the car again.


    Adrienne looked out of the window and said, "My home is not far ahead. You can drop me at the


    intersection in front. We will meet at the City Hall at ten o''clock tomorrow morning."


    This d*mned woman really wanted to get rid of him, Jefferson thought. He snorted and said, "A


    night with me costs millions. You better work hard. When you''ve repaid your debt, I''ll set you free."

    Jefferson thought that Adrienne was daydreaming if she thought she could get rid of him so easily


    with just a hundred and twenty thousand dors.


    Adrienne was so mad that she clenched her fists together. She tried to suppress her anger, but she


    still couldn''t help saying, "Jefferson, you a*shole. How can you take all of my money and still not let


    me go?"


    "Did I say that I''ll let you go as soon as I''ve received the money?" Jefferson asked back.


    She was the one who assumed he had agreed to it.
