Chapter 698 Settling the Score with Evelyn

After the maid left, Adam helped Emmeline sit up in bed. He then brought a small bowl and said softly, “Let me feed you something.”

“I can do it myself,” Emmeline refused.

“Can your eyes handle it?” Adam said patiently. “You can’t even see the bowl and utensils.”

Emmeline hesitated.

“Let me do it,” Adam said. “Just think of me as a friend.”

“If you want to be my friend, then you should take me home,” Emmeline said coldly. “Not leave me here like this!”

Adam took a deep breath and remained patient. “Once Mr. Emmeline is feeling better, I will take you home,” he said.

“Can I trust you?” Emmeline asked.

Adam nodded. “You can trust me.”

Trust my ass!
