Chapter 100 Chapter 100 "It was serious." "Is she in the hospital? Which department?" Eugene asked, his voice rising with urgency. Louis stopped and turned to look at his nephew, and the expression on his face went beyond cold; it was thunderous. Eugene quickly added, "I'm not asking for myself. The Matthews family is looking for her. One of her friends even showed up at the house today." Louis arched a brow, clearly skeptical. "She has friends?" "She does! Laura Shaw! You probably don't know her. Anyway, her family's worried. Now that we finally have some news..." Louis didn't reply, but inwardly, a cold smirk tugged is He remembered Laura. She was the one who'd been staying by So, they were clearly in contact. And yet, she sent her friend to the Matthews How interesting.

Eugene followed. "She left? But you just said he "But she's missing, Uncle-this doesn't good." If she at all. Listening to him go on, Louis realized Adora must still be staying at Point Residence apartment and hadn't returned to the Matthews estate a And now she had her friend show up pretending to search for her? OUTPU What exactly was she playing at? But Louis had never been one for idle talk, and certainly not the typ type to play messenger. He kept his voice cool. "If she doesn't want to go back to the Matthews estate, she must have her reasons. "The fact that you're more worried than her own family says plenty. And you're still going to stand there and claim she means "That's not what I meant, I just..." nothing Louis abruptly turned, his expression hardening with the full weight of authority. "Eugene, this is the last time I'll say it-if you're going to marry Ruby, then marry her. Commit to it. Stop involving yourself in anything else. "Adora is an adult, not a helpless child. If she chooses not to go back to the Matthews estate, ask yourself why. "Why would she even go back there for? Concern? Care? Are you going to show up every day and take care of her right in front of Ruby?" Louis' words hit Eugene like a sledgehammer-loud, clear, and cutting straight to the core. He froze, stunned, unable to utter a single word. Louis shot him one last sharp glare. "Go back and stay with your mother," he snapped, then turned and walked away. Back at Riverpoint Residence, Laura returned and started preparing lunch while recounting everything that had happened that morning. "Adora, I agree with you. There's a ninety-nine percent chance Ruby was behind the brake failure." She turned, eyeing her friend leaning against the kitchen doorway, a puzzled look in her eyes. "But she's pregnant and doesn't know a thing about cars. How would she even pull that off? Did she pay someone?" Adora nodded. "It's not impossible. Back when she colluded with those traffickers to have me taken, she didn't lift a finger herself either." Ruby had always played innocent, but underneath, she was calculating and vicious.

Now, after Adora survived and made it back, she'd arranged for someone to sabotage the brakes. The more Laura thought about it, the angrier she got. "What if we hadn't been lucky that day? We could've died on the spot or worse, crashed into someone else and caused a pile-up. "The consequences could've been disastrous. It's a miracle you stayed calm and handled it the way you did." Adora, in contrast, remained composed. "I guess the universe isn't done with me yet," she said with a faint, ironic smile. "Since I got to keep my life, I might as well make good use of it." Laura glanced back, wary but curious. "So, what are you planning to do?" Adora's smile deepened. "Her birthday's coming up in a few days. I've got a very special gift in mind." +25 Bonus Title: A Tangle of Love (English-dubbed) In "A Tangle of Love," a captivating romance unfolds within a unique observation show where participants navigate intricate relationships, love triangles, and power dynamics.
