Talented Heiress: A Rose With Thorns

A Rose 425

“Captain, next time you see her, make sure to ask for a few more bottles. It would be great if she’s selling this medicine; we could definitely use it on the field!”

Every time they went on missions, getting injured was inevitable. If they had this medicine, they would suffer a lot less in the future.

“They had a point,” Adam thought.

Adam’s desire to find her grew even stronger. He nodded seriously and said, “Don’t worry, I will definitely find that young lady.”

Not only did he want to repay her, but he also wanted to make a business deal with her.

“Alright, I won’t waste time here anymore. I’m going now; I need to see my sister!”

With that, Adam made haste. He jumped back into the car, slammed the gas pedal, and the damaged vehicle sped off like a rocket.

Sean and Ashton had been waiting at the agreed location for a long time. They were starting to get worried since Adam had not shown up yet.

“Why hasn’t Adam arrived yet? Could something have happened?”

Adam’s profession demanded such secrecy that even his family didn’t know the details of his missions. He always came back injured, which made them anxious every single time.

The dented black car eventually came to a steady stop in front of Sean and Ashton. Adam got out, expecting to be warmly embraced by his two younger brothers.

But to his surprise, Sean and Ashton both took a step back in unison.

“Adam, did you… go begging on the streets?”

Ashton and Sean both gaped at Adam, who was adorned in tattered clothes and had injuries on his face.

If they hadn’t recognized him, they might have thought he was some homeless beggar.

“I had to deal with some matters on the way back,” Adam said nonchalantly. “Where’s Jacob?”

At the mention of Jacob, Sean and Ashton couldn’t help but roll their eyes.

“Jacob’s with Yvie!”

They had to come pick Adam up while Jacob stayed behind with Yvie. How shameless of their oldest brother!

Adam couldn’t help but click his tongue, showing a hint of cheekiness. With a precious sister like Yvette, Jacob wouldn’t even come to greet Adam, though it had been a while since they last met. Jacob was indeed biased.

“Let’s head back now!” Adam was eager to see his sister and didn’t want to dwell on the fact that Jacob hadn’t come to pick him up. Besides, he would need Jacob’s help with something later..

After getting into the spacious car prepared by the Murray family, Adam finally felt at ease.

“Adam, where did you go for your mission this time?”

“Seeing all your injuries, was this mission very dangerous?” NôvelDrama.Org © content.

Adam usually wouldn’t bother responding to them, but his curiosity about his precious sister got the better of him today. As such, he casually answered all their questions.

Then, he immediately asked, “Sean, Ashton, is Yvie really cute and obedient?”

“Of course!” Sean and Ashton answered in unison. “Yvie is definitely the loveliest and most obedient girl

in the world!”
