Fifth Lord is here.
Eve's entire body was in great pain. There were two gunshot wounds on her body. Although she had avoided being hit in the vitals, she had lost too much blood. Her face was pale and bloodless.
There was blood in her lungs. She coughed violently a few times, bringing out a lot of bloody foam.
Fifth Lord sat on the leather seat and rested Eve's head on his knees. He said rather lovingly, "Didn't you promise to take good care of yourself? How did you end up like this? "
Eve was in great pain, but the hatred in her eyes was incomparably terrifying. She clenched her teeth and said fiercely, "I won't let them off! I definitely won't let them off! They didn't kill me today, so I'll make sure they disappear completely tomorrow! "
"I know, I know. Be good. Now lie down quietly so they can stop your bleeding." Fifth Lord stroked Eve's soft hair as if he was petting a cat. He didn't seem to be too worried about Eve's serious injuries. He just casually ordered his subordinates sitting across from him, "Those who failed to protect the young miss this time don't need to stay. Kill them."
His casual tone made it seem like the people he was killing weren't people, but cats and dogs.
His assistant didn't even bat an eyelid. He was obviously used to it. He nodded and said, "Yes!"
Fifth Lord took out a cigar from the box beside him. His assistant immediately lit it for him.
He took a deep breath and blew out smoke. His other hand was still stroking Eve. He said slowly, "You did very well this time. You didn't let the J Organisation get hold of our weakness. Instead, they betrayed us first and bit us back. Even if we eliminate them all now, the people in the underworld won't have anything to say. Kris, you did very well."
Eve turned a deaf ear to Fifth Lord's words. She gritted her teeth and endured the pain in her body as she recalled everything that happened today.
Tears flowed down the corners of her eyes. She didn't think that she would fail to live up to her expectations and once again have extravagant hopes for that man.
Right now, she was reaping what she sowed and only had herself to blame.

Adam was a little surprised to see Fifth Lord. This man in his thirties who had maintained himself well and exuded a mature aura looked at him calmly. "You are Adam, right? You do have the ability to make women fall head over heels for you. "
Adam remained unperturbed. Although Fifth Lord had yet to announce his name, he could tell from the surrounding posture that this man was Fifth Lord, who was feared by countless people in Country E.
He didn't want to know why the Fifth Lord had appeared here, nor did he want to know why he wanted to see him. Without any hesitation, he asked, "How is Miss Eve? Why didn't he come out? "
"Oh, Chris …"
Fifth Lord took a puff of his cigar. "She was ambushed by the J Organisation yesterday and was injured. Although her wounds have been bandaged, she still lost a lot of blood. She is still recuperating. I am now officially in charge of the J Country. You can ask me about any related matters."
Adam was silent for a moment before asking, "Can I go see her?"
"No."
Fifth Lord's answer was concise.
Adam's gaze darkened. "I believe Fifth Lord also knows what my relationship with her is. She is injured. It shouldn't be too much for me to go see her, right?"
"Your relationship with her?"
Fifth Lord looked at him, his lips curling into a mocking smile. "I really don't know what your relationship is. You were once a member of the J Organisation and had a superior-subordinate relationship with Chris. After you betrayed the J Organisation, your superior-subordinate relationship with Chris no longer existed. Of course, you can also be considered a friend. However, I don't know which friend is like Chris, giving everything to you. Since you have no intention of becoming lovers with her, then don't want to be friends with her. Otherwise, you will hurt her heart …"
Adam saw that Fifth Lord had investigated the matter between him and Eve. He smiled coldly. "Whether or not we want to be friends is up to Eve."
"No, it's up to me."
Fifth Lord corrected his words.
He took a step towards Adam and calmly said, "I am Chris's fiancé, which is also her sky. What I say …"
Before he could finish his sentence, Adam had already stepped forward and aimed the gun at his forehead. His face was cold and frosty. "I've said it before. I want to see her!"
"Swish swish."
The bodyguards around him took out their guns and pointed them at Adam.
Even if someone pointed a gun at him, Fifth Lord didn't panic. Instead, he praised, "Your skills are indeed amazing. I heard that you once held the position of Red J for a period of time, the same level as that Phillips. I'm very curious, if the two of you fight, who will win?"
Adam sneered. "Fifth Lord, you should take care of yourself first."
"Are you sure you want to kill me?" Fifth Lord asked in return. He said calmly, "If I die, Feng Dike's family will definitely not let you guys off. The Charlie Royal Family is currently facing internal and external troubles, but you're making enemies for them. You're really capable …"
His words were neither hurried nor slow, but it seemed to be poisoned and stabbed deeply into Adam's chest.
That's right, they didn't need Feng Dike as an ally now, but they definitely couldn't make such an enemy.
The gun still fell in the end.
Fifth Lord dusted off the non-existent dust on his body and smiled. "I like people who know how to adapt to circumstances. You and Phillips are both very adaptable."
Adam's heart skipped a beat. He didn't understand why he had to involve Phillips.
At this time, Fifth Lord handed a USB flash drive to Adam. "This is the J Organisation's action plan and the list of people Chris sent to investigate openly and secretly. With this, the eradication of the J Organisation is just around the corner."
Adam didn't say anything. He just held the USB flash drive tightly in his hand.
Before leaving, Adam's footsteps paused and he looked at Fifth Lord.
"You should know that Eve doesn't really love you."
Fifth Lord nodded. "We're just making a deal, but during this period, she has to do her best to be a good wife."
Adam's voice became colder. "I hope that when the time comes, you can keep your promise!"
After saying that, he got into the car and left.
Fifth Lord raised his hand that was holding the cigar. Immediately, someone came forward with an ashtray and took the cigar away. He narrowed his eyes and said indifferently, "Who knows? Isn't there a lot of dog-eat-dog incidents in the underworld?"
But in the end, no one heard this sentence.
Three days later, the war between the J Organisation and the Charles Royal Family broke out. In the past, the J Organisation had secretly bribed people to jointly appeal to investigate the truth of Charles VII. However, they were counterattacked by Adam and Ravel. They exposed what the J Organisation had done all these years, as well as the various crimes the J Organisation had committed in the dark.
Killing three generations of Emperors, persecuting the Royal Family's descendants, and killing those who disobeyed them. These crimes were enough to kill them more than ten thousand times.
The assassination list and the list of names inserted into the central government were all made public.
In an instant, the J Organisation became a rat that everyone wanted to beat up. Because the list of the J Organisation's members was exposed, their faces appeared on various major online platforms. They had nowhere to hide. Soon, they were reported by countless indignant citizens of the J Country. Adam and Ravel relied on He Clan's resources to expose them. They displayed thunderous methods and caught those people in one fell swoop, not giving them any chance to fight back.
