Chapter 150 - Is It Done? (1/2)

Stella twirled the glass in between her fingers after taking a couple of sips. She looked at Adam who was busy replying to someone's text.

”Put your phone down.” She grumbled as she moved a step closer to him.

”Just a moment, it's important.” Adam replied without looking up from his phone's screen. His eyes were fixated it as his fingers flew swiftly over the touch screen.

”It's always something important.” She rolled her eyes back before continuing. ”It's Saturday Adam, and you are in a party.”

”Are you forgetting that I have to look after some other things besides the business now?” He finally looked up from his phone before locking the screen and shoving in inside his coat's pocket.

”It means I won't get to spend my weekends with you now.” She pursed her lips, her eyebrows furrowing.

”Of course you will. You will accompany me everytime I visit the base.” He patted her head softly.

”Really?” Her eyes lit up as her lips curled up in a soft smile.

Looking at her pleased expression, Adam let out a hearty chuckle. ”Yeah!”

”Why don't you go and look for Lillian and Blake? I think they will be leaving soon.” He continued. ”I will join you guys in a while.”

”Oh, right! I almost forgot about them.” She replied before finishing her drink. ”I will see you then.” Stella replied before walking away from the bar.

Adam looked at her retreating figure until she disappeared into the crowd. He turned his attention towards the bartender and motioned him to give him a refill.

The bartender came to him with a bottle of scotch in his hands.

”What was it?” Adam muttered under his breath, keeping his voice low.

”Some sort of powder. She asked me to mix it in the lady's drink.” The bartender replied to him, keeping his head down as he poured the drink into his glass.

”Did you?” Adam's voice dropped a few degrees down.

”Of course I didn't. How can I harm my future lady boss?” The man replied.

”Good.” Adam added as the corner of his lips slightly turned upwards, adorning his face with a devilish smirk. ”Can you recognize the woman?”

”She's Mr. Liam's daughter.” The bartender replied.

”Add the same stuff in her drink.” Adam ordered him without even flinching for once. He didn't want to hurt Liam in anyway, and he knew how much he loved his daughter, but Rachel needed to be taught a lesson.

”As you say, Boss.” The man nodded his head slightly before turning around and got busy with other customers.

Adam gulped down his drink, finishing it in a single go before walking away from the bar and headed to find his beloved little elf.

”There you go Ma'am.”  The bartender placed a martini before her.

”Is it done?” She asked him.

”Yes.” The man replied to her with a nod.

”Here's your reward.” She added before throwing a thick wad of cash towards him.
