[Elizabeth has probably found out that it was me at the battle at the Epstein Family and I am curious to see how she reacts or acts after seeing me] thought Adam to himself.

He had nothing to fear, especially with Chase, who might be just as powerful as him, with him.

[I don't like keeping loose ends so if she wants to make me her enemy, I will have to eliminate her or make sure that she can't talk. I am not really sure what I will do or how I will react until I see how she acts, but with her strong hate, I am sure she will have complaints] thought Adam to himself as he continued driving the motorcycle as quickly as he could without passing the speed limit.

[There is a conflict of interest between one of my allies and two of my other allies, but the two allies are actually my friends and one of them my closest friend. I don't owe any of them anything, in fact, all my allies owe me, so I don't have to feel any guilt if I decide to cut off Elizabeth]

Adam was contemplating what to do and was playing different scenarios that could occur within his mind, but each and every time he was the one that was in the better position and didn't need her at all, while Elizabeth definitely needed him.

After reaching the Auction House, Adam parked outside and Jaspal and Elizabeth were there to welcome him.

Getting off the motorcycle, Adam whispered to Chase, "Be careful and ready for an attack at any moment. We are currently allies, but that might change so just be ready".

Chase smiled and nodded his head as he took off his helmet and left it on the motorcycle as he walked behind Adam over to Elizabeth and Jaspal.

"How have you been? I haven't been back here in a while" said Adam in a friendly tone.

Despite not fearing Elizabeth or her organisation, Adam had no reason to start a conflict with them as it would merely be a waste of time and energy and he wouldn't gain anything from it.

"It has been good and we are cultivating and expanding out Auction House and have begun with some small auctions that are bringing in some money and attention from the wealthy and a few cultivators" answered Elizabeth as she led them into the building.

Adam saw a glint of hate and anger in her eyes, but it didn't seem to be aimed at him and he was unsure of what she was thinking or planning to do.

[Let's see how this plays out] said Adam to himself as he entered the lift with Chase behind him.

They were taken to the top floor of the building and the atmosphere was quite awkward, which went to tell Adam that she knew and that there was something going on.

{Adam be careful, even though you are capable, you aren't invincible. You can't die and leave me} warned Ava within his mind.

[Don't worry Ava, I can't die until you have your own body and are free from the system] promised Adam who no longer saw Ava as the system, but as a person that was bound to the system and controlled by the program behind it.

Ava after hearing what Adam said, blushed within the mindscape and didn't understand what she was feeling. She felt like she wanted to cry, but it was tears of joy and she felt warmth in her heart.

While Ava was feeling all kinds of emotions after hearing Adam's caring and touching words, Adam walked through the top floor of the Auction House with Elizabeth, Jaspal and Chase.

It was clear to Adam that there were more guards stationed than ordinary, which went to show him that Elizabeth was prepared to fight and even kill him, but instead of being scared or angry, Adam smiled to himself.

"So, what have you been up to lately?" asked Elizabeth as she sat down at her desk while Adam and Chase sat on the sofa opposite her.

"Not much, I've just been training" answered Adam.

She clearly didn't believe Adam's answer, but seeing how relaxed he was, Elizabeth couldn't gauge what he was thinking.

"How are your eyes brown? Aren't they red?" she asked.

Adam shrugged and had a smile on his face as he sat comfortably and glared at Jaspal and Elizabeth.

"Do you want to kill me?" he asked directly and nonchalantly.

Elizabeth and even Jaspal was shocked by his sudden question and didn't know how to answer or react.

"I let you off when you came to my apartment, which was the first strike. Then you placed a tracker on the motorcycle you gave me, that was meant to be my payment for helping you out. And now you want to kill me" stated Adam as he stood up.

"I don't owe either of you anything and I helped and wanted to grow your organisation because I saw your ambition and out of pity, but it seems I was wrong to put my trust or believe in you two" declared Adam.

Elizabeth was clearly upset and emotional and seemed to regret her actions, while Jaspal was calm and had a smile on his face, seemingly unfazed by Adam.

"It seems as though the poor young lady who was blinded by hate and ambition didn't realise the snake that stood beside her," said Adam as he looked into Jaspal's eyes.

Jaspal began to laugh evilly as he pressed a button that was inside his pocket.

"Adam you have served me well, but you are growing too quickly and I can't restrain you, so I will have no choice but to get rid of you" stated Jaspal as he continued to laugh wildly.

"What are you talking about? He wasn't serving you. You do not have the right to speak like that servant" scolded Elizabeth, before she was stopped by a sudden slap.
