Chapter 16

The next day, Adam was discharged from the hospital.

When Rebecca arrived at school in the morning, she received a gift.She opened it and saw that it was
a set of cosmetics, a top brand called Lamer.

It was worth tens of thousands of dollars.Inside the gift, there was a small note that read: Rebecca,
thank you!

"Wow, Rebecca, have you made any rich friends or been kept by someone recently? It is such a
luxurious brand!"

When Caroline saw it, she was envious.

Rebecca smiled, took out the note and threw it away.

She closed the box, and put it into Caroline's hand.

"Since you like it so much, I'll give it to you.It's a waste because I don't need it anyway.’

"Are you kidding me?"

Caroline was was pop-eyed with amazement. Rebecca smiled.

"Or else you give me one thousand dollars and I sell it to you?"

"Really?"

Caroline couldn't believe it.

"Do you want it or not? If you don't want it, I'll throw it away"

Caroline looked at her and asked, "You're so short of money?"



"Yes."

Rebecca nodded, "What I need the most is money."

"Okay, two thousand dollars.’ Caroline took it happily and opened the box.

She liked it so much that she couldn't put it down.

Rebecca smiled, "It's up to you."

Not far away, Justin looked at Rebecca and his expression became serious.

At around five in the afternoon, Rebecca was coming out of an academic seminar at the academy
when her phone rang.

It was from Adam.

Justin followed Rebecca and saw the caller ID on her phone screen.

It was Adam, which was particularly eye-catching.

This was the first time Rebecca had received a call from Adam.

She was stunned and looked a few seconds before she answered the phone.

"Hello.

"Can you go home now? I'll wait for you at the gate of your school."

Rebecca stood outside the multi-purpose lecture hall with her cellphone in her hand.

There were people coming and going.



She thought she heard wrong, so after two seconds, she confirmed, "What did you say?"

As a result, the voice over there suddenly became cold and he asked, "Come out, I'm at the gate of
your school."

Rebecca tock a deep breath and answered, "Okay."

"Caroline, Rebecca, there's still a lesson of financial engineering tonight.Shall we have dinner together
later? “ Seeing Rebecca finish the call, Justin immediately said with a smile.

"Okay!"Caroline nodded immediately.

"Sorry, I have something to do.I have to go home first.Maybe another noon.I'll go first.Bye!"

After that, Rebecca put away her phone and wanted to leave.

"Rebecca, are you going to be absent from the class tonight?"

Because the professor had something urgent to do, he changed the class from afternoon to evening.

Rebecca turned around and smiled, "If I don't come, lend me your notes tomorrow.’

"Okay!"

"Bye!"

Waving to Caroline and Justin, Rebecca strode away.

When she arrived at the school gate, the window of a black Land-Rover immediately lowered.

Adam, wearing a pair of sunglass and a cap, poked his head out of the window and waved at her.

Rebecca held a folder in her hand and stood on the pedestrian passageway at the gate.



For a moment, some memories flooded back to her.

"Get in the car"

It was not until the man in the car became impatient that Rebecca came to her senses and strode
towards the black Land-Rover.

"Sit on the back seat."

When Rebecca subconsciously walked to the passenger seat, the man in the car spoke coldly again.

Rebecca was about to pull the door of the passenger seat but she stopped.

A second later, she took her hand back and retreated to the back seat.

She opened the door of the back seat and got in the car.

She was being sentimental.

Adam was definitely not here to pick her up.

Sure enough, the car circled around the New York University for half a turn.

Then, at a small door in the southeast gate where almost no one came in and out, Adam drove the car
over.

Then, Rebecca saw a slim figure standing not far from the door, wearing sunglasses and a cap.

It was Linda! They all learned to keep a low profile and no longer show off.

"Adam.The car stopped beside Linda.Linda opened the door and didn't seem to notice Rebecca in the
back seat at all.She got into the car and threw herself into Adam's arms.Adam caught her and hugged



her tightly.It seemed that he treated her like a treasure regained! Rebecca turned her face away and
looked out the window on the other side.

"Adam, do you know how scared I am? I didn't sleep for two whole days and nights until you asked
Rebecca to call me.’’

Halfway through what Linda said, she noticed the person sitting on the back seat.

Her words stopped instantly.

After looking at Rebecca, she let go of Adam's hand and asked, "Adam, why is Rebecca in the car?"

Adam also let go of Linda, holding her hand and kissed it on the lip.

He did not look at Rebecca at all, but only looked at Linda.

His voice was so gentle, "There are many people here.Find a quiet place first.’

"Ok."

Linda nodded and smiled at Adam, tears streaming down her face.

Adam grabbed the back of her head to kiss her forehead, and immediately stepped on the accelerator
to drive the car out.

Rebecca sat in the back seat next to the window and kept her head sideways.

She stared out the window in a daze.

For the first time, she felt suffocated.

Soon, Adam found an quiet green belt, then he drove in and stopped.



"Get out of the car!"

When the car stopped, Adam asked in a cold voice.Rebecca was thinking and didn't hear it.

"Rebecca."

Seeing that Rebecca didn't respond, Linda turned around and called her.

"What?"

Rebecca finally came back to her senses.

"Get out of the car.Do you hear me?"

Adam's attitude was colder than before.

"Ok."

Rebecca answered obediently and didn't appear angry.

She pushed the door open and got out of the car, bringing all her things with her.

"Wait outside the car.Don't go far’’ Just as Rebecca was about to slam the door, the man's cold voice
came again.

Rebecca paused slightly and agreed, "Okay”

And then she slammed the door violently.

"Adam, you.."

Rebecca took two steps and felt something was wrong under her feet.



She looked down but inadvertently glanced at the window that the passenger seat was put down, and
Adam directly pressed over.

It turned out that she stepped on dog shit.It stank!
