Chapter 1283 - 1223: The Woman Encountered by Chance

"I swear to Allah, every word I said in the video is true. Murray’s true identity is Night Owl, a person from Death Island, an international fugitive, and he’s definitely not my cousin."

"..."

"I don’t even have a cousin!"

Gulit’s words caused an uproar among the public.

"Night Owl pretended to be my cousin just to control Moore and seize Abyanabad."

"..."

"Moore has leukemia, and my marrow isn’t a match for his. I begged him, begged Night Owl to tell people about Moore’s illness, hoping more people could provide a marrow match and cure Moore’s disease.

But Night Owl doesn’t care if Moore lives or dies at all!"

Gulit’s accusations resonated loudly, shocking the entire Abyanabad.

The press conference was broadcast live, and now the people of Abyanabad were gathered in front of their TVs, watching the broadcast.

The status of Abyanabad’s royal family is high, and they really didn’t expect that the queen and the young prince were actually controlled by that man Night Owl.

Adrian Desmond was currently drinking coffee at a cafe.

Adrian Desmond doesn’t particularly like coffee, but because Sienna Johnson likes the coffee here, and it’s close to where they live, when Sienna was in Abyanabad, she would occasionally come for coffee, so Adrian also got used to sitting there.

The cafe’s television was broadcasting the press conference live, and Adrian was very satisfied with Gulit’s performance.

Indeed, a mother’s strength is great; that timid woman really put everything on the line for her son.

Adrian was just curious about how Night Owl would respond next.

"Sir, your cappuccino." Victoria Logan placed a cup of coffee in front of Adrian.

"Thank you."

Victoria was curious why a man would like cappuccino, as it’s generally a sweeter choice preferred by women.

Looking at this man, tall and robust, with handsome features, cold as ice, exuding an aura of "keep away," she grew more curious.

What Victoria didn’t know was that Sienna Johnson always ordered cappuccino whenever she came to this cafe.

Noticing that the woman kept staring at him, Adrian suddenly raised his head, his icy gaze boring into her, and saw a pregnant woman.

Victoria quickly lowered her head.

Adrian’s phone rang; it was Brandon Potter calling, and Adrian picked it up, "How’s it going on-site? Has Night Owl shown up yet?"

"No."

On Brandon Potter’s side, it was noisy, indicating that the revelation had made quite a stir.

"Keep a close watch; if the timing’s not right, you guys should leave," Adrian carefully instructed.

Now that Night Owl controlled the entire Imperial Palace, it’s not something that Gulit’s revelation alone could dethrone him from, unless Kiya returns to turn the tide.

"Understood, Sixth Master."

Adrian hung up the phone and saw the woman standing there, looking at him in disbelief. Adrian disliked women’s gazes and tossed a bill on the table, planning to leave.

The woman suddenly chased after him, "Sir, do you know Night Owl?"

Adrian stopped in his tracks, sizing up the woman before him, not quite like an Abyanabad woman, more like an Orienta woman.

"Who are you?"

"My name is Victoria Logan."

"What’s your relation to Night Owl?"

Victoria lowered her head, a mournful look in her eyes, "He’s the father of my unborn child..."

Adrian’s eyes fell to her belly, a look of shock on his face.

Wasn’t the woman Night Owl liked Sienna Johnson? If so, why was this woman pregnant with Night Owl’s child?

"Are you sure?"

"Sir, why would I lie to you?"

Victoria took out her phone and showed him a picture of Night Owl. The photo was taken secretly, but Night Owl’s face could still be seen.

"Is this the Night Owl you know?" Victoria asked uncertainly.

Adrian came closer and took a good look; it was undoubtedly Night Owl. As his enemy, Adrian would recognize Night Owl even if he turned to dust.

"It’s not convenient to talk here, come with me."

"But I’m still on duty right now."

Adrian called Marion over and instructed him, then Marion went to the cafe manager, who agreed to let Victoria leave work early.

...

Victoria followed Adrian into his car, which was a business vehicle, with separation between the driver’s seat and the back, and the car was bulletproof.

The car was spacious, with black leather seats, and the man sat there boldly, exuding a strong sense of oppression.

Victoria was uneasy, regretting getting into a stranger’s car so easily. However, she had no other choice; she had been looking for Night Owl for so long, finally met someone who might know Night Owl’s whereabouts, and couldn’t possibly give up like that.

"Sir, do you know where Night Owl is?"

Victoria looked at Adrian with great anticipation, hoping this man would kindly tell her Night Owl’s whereabouts.

"What’s your relation with Night Owl?" Adrian was also very curious about this woman.

"..."

"Are you Night Owl’s girlfriend?" Seeing her remain silent, Adrian asked.

Victoria couldn’t bring herself to lie and confessed, "I’m from Sileria City; I was a doctor there. When Night Owl got injured in Sileria City, I performed surgery on him. At that time, he was close to death...

During Night Owl’s recovery, we..."

"Did you fall in love?"

Victoria gently shook her head, "I was just his ’pastime,’ but I fell for him.

I became pregnant with his child, thinking he would be pleased, but he gave me $150,000 to abort the child."

"..."

"See, this man is so bad, yet I still love him so much..."

Adrian looked at her and said, "Mm, you are quite foolish."

If it were Sienna Johnson, dared he treat her like that, Sienna would have dusted off and left by now.

If it’s about which woman is the fiercest, there’s no one in this world more relentless than Sienna Johnson.

If Night Owl really fell for Sienna Johnson, his suffering is certain, for Sienna’s methods of tormenting men, Adrian had experienced firsthand.

"Does he...have a wife in Abyanabad?" Victoria asked softly.

"No."

The car was heading towards the Imperial Palace; Adrian planned to take this woman to the press conference.

"Do you know where he is now?"

"I’m taking you to find him right now."

With such a commotion, Night Owl should show up.

"Really?"

Adrian’s eyes were cold, "If you don’t believe me, you can get out of the car!"

"I believe, I believe!"

Adrian looked at this woman a few more times, unable to figure out how muddled her mind must be to actually fall for someone like Night Owl.

Adrian suddenly remembered a phrase Sienna Johnson had said: A woman’s tears after marriage are due to all the muddled thoughts during dating. So if you’re unhappy, you’ll shed a lot of tears.
