Chapter 1226 What's The Relationship Between Lisa And Adam

Lisa could not believe what had just happened. She couldn't understand how this all turned out. 'Robert is such a proud person. He never asks help from anyone. Now he's asking help for our baby?' she thought with a puzzled look on her face.

Lisa's mind began racing. She suddenly realized something. 'Robert was once crazy about Linda. He must still love her. It wouldn't be difficult for even a proud man like himself to ask help from her!

Maybe Robert wants to rekindle something with Linda!'

Lisa's face went red, and her thoughts were clouded with jealousy and rage.

"You want to see Linda, don't you? Well, I won't give you that chance."

Robert couldn't believe what he was hearing from Lisa. "How could you even say something like that? It's true, I once loved her, but that's ancient history! We're just friends now. The baby's safety is what you should be thinking about!" Robert could barely control the frustration inside of him.

He knew Lisa pretty well by now, and he knew that she could be quite jealous, at times. Lisa had always had a difficult time putting the past behind her, and Robert and Linda's past was still fresh in her mind.

Lisa also had a more than colorful childhood that shaped her adulthood. She was always her father's favorite, and this made her more than a little self-centered at times. Robert never really noticed these things about Lisa early on, but they were now slowly coming out in the open.

"Ancient history? For real? Admit it, Robert! You still think about Linda!" The slightest mention of Linda to Lisa always set her off. Now, with her baby in his serious condition, Lisa became even more unreasonable. It was immature and irrational behavior, but Lisa just couldn't help herself.

"Lisa, don't you remember how you and I ended up together? And don't you remember what you promised me?" Robert shot a cold and grim look at Lisa.

He was fed up with Lisa's childish behavior. Robert expected better of her, especially in such a dire situation. It was frustrating for Robert to have to bear with Lisa's outbursts.

Robert was usually a patient man. He had lost count of all the times he silently allowed Lisa to rant, and basically nag him to her heart's content. Robert never saw the sense in speaking back at Lisa. For him, it would only extend the quarrel, and he often chose to remain silent. He could not do that now. Not when the baby's life depended on it.

"What do you mean? You were the one who promised never to bring up the past

ught.

He had seen just how bad it once was. Robert could still remember the wound on Adam's eye. It had rotted away. The eyeball in one of his eyes had been seriously damaged. His eye appeared sunken and just sightless.

'What happened?

Is this some kind of new technology? Artificial eyes, perhaps? No, that's impossible! Medical technology hasn't advanced that far! At least, as far as I know, ' Robert thought.

Robert's mind was racing now, and full of confusion.

Robert could see Adam moving towards him, and he hid behind the nearest tree.

"Clean up the site carefully! Don't let the cat out of the bag.

Is Robert there yet? Make sure that the two bodies are charred.

Okay. When it's done, I'll transfer 1 million dollars to your account."

Robert heard Adam's cold words, and his heart fell in his chest. He couldn't believe what he was hearing.

Adam's suspicious call, was right after Robert heard the terrible news about his parents. This was all so terrible for Robert, and he still couldn't wrap his mind around it.

Robert saw Adam hang up the phone and dial another number.

"Do I have to explain everything to you, Lisa? I don't need you to tell me what to do all the time! What? Yes, yes! I know. I'll send someone to take you and your baby to the hospital.

Don't worry. You are my closest family. Your son is my little nephew.

As his uncle, how can I stand by while his life is in danger?"

The conversation between Lisa and Adam confused Robert even more. 'Why is Adam calling Lisa? What's the relationship between them?

And he mentioned that Lisa is his closest family? How is that so?' Robert thought to himself.
