Jealousy!
Eve was sure that Adam was treating her as an enemy, but it was only natural. The moment she decided to leave with Phillips, their relationship was destroyed.
But hearing his cold voice, she still felt a little uncomfortable.
She took a deep breath and forced herself to ignore Adam's cold voice and continued, "From what you're saying, something has happened to Queen Lilith, right?"
After hearing Eve's words, Adam's voice became even colder, "And then?"
"Is there a problem with her body?" Eve asked tentatively.
"Yes, her body is deteriorating faster than we thought. Even with the enhancer, it's useless. We're about to be forced into a desperate situation …"
Eve sighed inwardly. It was exactly as Phillips said. She turned around to look at Phillips and saw him looking at her meaningfully with a bright smile. Her heart skipped a beat and she quickly turned around. Just as she was about to say something, she was interrupted by Adam, "How do you feel after hearing what I said? Are you happy? We're forced into a desperate situation … Is Phillips by your side now? Is he listening to our conversation? "
Eve froze on the spot upon hearing this.
Her blue eyes flashed and she opened her mouth, but she didn't know how to answer.
If she said he wasn't by her side, would she be hypocritical?
Then say he was by her side?
Was she supposed to say that she was lying on the same bed with Phillips just now? No matter how open she was in this aspect, she still didn't have the courage to say such things to the person she liked. It was too embarrassing.
Time passed second by second, but Eve seemed to be frozen. Her mouth was open, but she couldn't say a word.
Right at this moment, she suddenly felt a ball of hot air behind her. She turned around abruptly, and Phillips had already leaned over and easily snatched the phone from her hand. There was a hint of provocation in his voice as he said, "You sure know a lot. That's right, I'm indeed with Eve. Do you want to know where we are right now?"
"Phillips, stop talking!"
Eve hastily interrupted Phillips. She already knew what he was going to say next.
The smile on Phillips's face faded a little. He raised his eyebrows and said, "You're really a woman who turns against me the moment you get out of bed. You weren't like this when you were with me before, hmm?"
Eve was so angry that her whole body was trembling. This person was doing it on purpose. Why did he have to say this when she was talking to Adam?
"Hehe, I don't want to hide our relationship. My dear, I'm very possessive. You should think about me." Phillips acted as if he didn't see Eve's angry expression and continued to speak into the phone. However, he was gripping the phone so tightly that the veins on the back of his hand were bulging, revealing his true emotions.
No matter how cheerful he appeared on the surface, his heart was already burned by the flames of jealousy.
Adam leaned against the huge floor-to-ceiling window. He raised his head, his bangs blocking his eyes and all his emotions. After a while, he slowly said, "Did you call me just to show off your love?"
Eve was still staring at Phillips, but when she heard Adam's voice, she immediately came back to her senses and retorted, "It's not like that! Adam, I … "
"The relationship between the two of you and what you're doing right now has nothing to do with me. However, Phillips, I'll definitely make you pay for the pain you've inflicted on Lilith. I hope you can escape to the ends of the earth. If I catch you, you won't have an easy time."
Adam's voice was like a layer of ice. Even though they were so far away, Eve couldn't help but shiver. Her whole body trembled slightly, and all the blood drained from her cheeks and turned pale.
He was really angry because of Lilith.
Phillips could feel Eve's trembling body, and a dark emotion flashed through his eyes. After a few seconds, he said to Adam, "God, the Queen's Executive is really formidable. I'm really terrified that you've issued a wanted order. Darling, you don't have to be afraid. I'll take you to the ends of the earth so that you won't be a widow in the future."
His words were frivolous and had a hint of teasing. He was completely indecent.
Eve gritted her teeth. "That's enough."
"It's not enough. I like to let others know that we're in love. I like to be high-profile!" Phillips's angelic face was filled with malice. His other hand pressed down on Eve's shoulder with such force that it was as if he wanted to crush her shoulder.
Adam really felt that he was bored out of his mind to listen to these two people talking nonsense. He hung up the phone and blocked the phone number.
Eve's shoulder hurt badly. When she heard the busy tone from the phone, she was stunned for a moment before realizing that the phone had been turned off.
She quickly grabbed the phone and called again, but no matter how many times she called, she couldn't get through to Adam's phone. She looked at Phillips angrily and said, "What the hell do you want? Why did you deliberately say this to Adam? You're crazy! "
Phillips saw that Eve was angry and shouted at him.
His face darkened.
He smiled coldly and said arrogantly, "I like to see his teeth itching. He's just a traitor, but he's so arrogant and wants to kill me? Why should I return the favor to such a man? I'm not a good person! "
"But you promised me that I would tell Adam the way to save Lilith!"
"I didn't stop you from doing so. That man hung up the phone without permission and blacklisted you. It has nothing to do with me!" Phillips began to argue.
Eve was so angry that she wanted to hit him. "If you didn't say anything unnecessary, why would Adam blacklist me? Can you not be so boring … "
"Boring?" Phillips suddenly grabbed Eve and pulled her in front of him. He said coldly, "Eve, have you forgotten who your man is now? Do you know how annoying your expression is every time you talk to Adam? The man who is occupying you now is me, Phillips! "
Eve sneered. "Do you want to keep playing this love game? It's just a game. It's ridiculous to treat it like this. "
"You think this is a love game?"
Phillips suddenly let go of Eve's hand and looked at her with narrowed eyes.
Eve's expression was also very cold. She sneered. "Isn't it?"
In an instant, the atmosphere froze.
The air seemed to have frozen again, and Eve felt like she couldn't breathe.
After a long time, Phillips suddenly laughed as if he had thought it through. He put his fingers in his hair and let out a low laugh. "That's right. No matter how moving my words of love are, no matter how many women I bewitch, it has no effect on you. Because you're a woman without a heart. No, it's not that you don't have a heart …"
He paused and looked at Eve indifferently. He said slowly, "It's that your heart is all about a man called Adam. No matter how good other men are to you, you can turn a blind eye to it. Even if it's a physical relationship, it's the same."
He thought that this time, Eve had been abandoned by Adam, and he finally had an opportunity to take advantage of.
He was so excited that he was like a hothead, taking her to see the most beautiful scenery in the world and attend the grandest banquet. But in the other party's eyes, it was just a farce.
No matter how intimate they were physically, he couldn't get close to that cold and heartless heart. His passionate heart felt as if a basin of ice water had been poured on it. It was bone-chilling, and he felt a dull pain.
How boring. Why did he waste so much time on such a woman?
Phillips sighed and sat by the bed alone. He started to put on his clothes.
His movements were very slow, as if he was waiting for something. However, when he turned around after putting on his clothes, he saw Eve staring at her phone with her brows tightly furrowed, just like how he was feeling at that moment.
He was still looking forward to something like a fool.
Damn it!
As if venting his anger, Phillips kicked the corner of the bed.
The loud noise attracted Eve's attention. She frowned and looked at Phillips. The other party also looked at her with a very cold gaze. Finally, he turned around and left.
Eve didn't care about Phillips's actions.
This time, he had indeed gone against his own words and caused her to be blacklisted by Adam. This was all his fault.
As for the trace of hurt in his eyes, Eve subconsciously ignored it.
She shook her head hard and told herself not to think too much. Phillips was more possessive of her because he could easily get anything. Money, power, and women were all the same. But he was defeated by her, so he was entangled with her.
All of this came from possessiveness.
Love?
Would a cold-hearted person like him really have such a luxurious thing?
Eve tried hard to convince herself that the most important thing now was Lilith. If there was no treatment method, Lilith would be very tired. If something happened to her, Adam wouldn't be able to stay calm. Now was the crucial time to deal with the J Organisation. There couldn't be any more mistakes.
She persevered and called Adam, but she was hung up again and again.
She had no choice but to contact someone else. But this number seemed to be locked. She couldn't get into Adam's internal network.
"Adam, don't throw a tantrum at this juncture. Hurry up and pick up the phone!" Eve began to panic.
She could only call another number.
It was very common for a special agent to have multiple numbers, but she underestimated Adam's understanding of her. Those numbers were all blacklisted. She was completely kicked out of his world.
She could only get a new number.
Hopefully, this would get through.
Eve sighed and got out of bed to get dressed.
But now, she was faced with an awkward problem. She was not fluent in Russian, and it was not one of the basic languages she had learned. When she went out, she only knew how to do simple negotiations. But when she left the hotel, where to go and how to get a new account was a big problem.
She had no choice but to lower her head and ask Phillips for help.
Although it was a little awkward, she still wanted to save Lilith as soon as possible.
