My Mommy's Brave Heart novel Chapter 497

The light in the office was dim. The yellow light shone brightly in Adina’s dark eyes.

Earley looked at her eyes that brimmed with indifference, and he suddenly smiled faintly.

“Adina, you’re really smart, so how did your own sister manage to set you up five years ago?”

Adina’s pink lips were tense.

She was set up five years ago because she trusted those two so-called family members, not because she was stupid.

While she was in a daze, Earley immediately raised his hand and grabbed her wrist.

Adina was slim and agile. She took a step back and easily got out of Earley’s control range.

She stabbed at Earley’s neck with the knife in her hand without hesitation.

Earley narrowed his eyes, and he was forced to keep moving backward.

He coldly said, “You’re unexpectedly great in martial arts.”

He was almost no match for her.

Adina smiled faintly and chuckled. “If you really harm my daughter, I’ll stab your heart with the knife without hesitation. But today, I don’t want to make my hands dirty!”

As she said that, she jumped forward and strongly hit the back of Earley’s neck with her elbow.

Earley was focused on the knife in her hand, so he did not expect that she would suddenly use this method. The back of his neck was hit, and his vision turned black before he fell to the ground.

Bang!

He fell down to the ground, and a cloud of dust was flung up.

The muscular man in the warehouse heard the commotion via the walkie-talkie.

The muscular man, who was holding a lighter, stared at them in surprise. He did not expect his boss to be beaten unconscious by a woman.

He shook his head and turned back to his task.

Swish!

The lighter lit up with a small, ghostly blue flame.

But he was still one step late!

He just watched as the sack dropped to the floor, and a thudding sound was heard on the concrete floor.

Then, he saw that the sack was slowly becoming wet. Blood continued to seep out of the sack, and much of it spread across the damp ground.

“Addy…”

Duke’s voice trembled.

He slowly walked over. His knees went weak, and he knelt on the concrete floor.

He reached out and wanted to untie the sack, but it was full of blood. When he reached out, he was so scared that he kept his hand away.

He dared not touch it.

He feared it would make her injury more severe if he touched the sack.

He feared nothing over the past twenty years of his life, but he was really frightened at that moment.
