Chapter 1797 Evan Confronts Shermaine
Damien nodded. “Mr. Seet said he was worried about you, so he went in to look for you. You’re out, but he’s still inside.”
“Should we go in and look for Mr. Seet?”
Davin thought for a second before shaking his head. “No, we can’t go in. He’s going to be fine. He’ll definitely be fine. Didn’t Shermaine say she likes him? She definitely won’t hurt him. We’re different. If we get caught, those two women won’t show us any mercy. Besides, it’s easier for my brother to escape alone. If we go in now, we’ll only add on to his burden. Let’s just go back first and see how things go!”
Damien and Draven agreed with Davin’s assessment, but they felt bad about leaving Evan behind.
“Are you sure Mr. Seet is going to be fine, Mr. Davin?”
“I’m sure! Women like him. He has an advantage.”
The two Hidden Masters stared at each other and realized Davin was right, so they all promptly left.
Once Evan entered the cave, he went straight to Elias’ room. However, just as he stood in front of the door, he heard someone coughing behind him.
“Are you here to see me, Evan? If that’s the case, you’re looking at the wrong room. My room’s this one.” It was obviously Shermaine’s voice.
Evan turned around to face her. She was wearing a simple white dress, thus making her snow-white skin look paler and flawless.
“I’m here for Elias!”
“Elias? Didn’t he go out with you? He hasn’t come back!”
Elias hasn’t come back? Then where’s Davin? The two of them didn’t realize Davin was impersonating Elias? Evan’s eyebrows furrowed.
“I told you I’m here and that Elias isn’t! Why are you still standing there? Come to me!” She spoke as she gave him a wink.
Evan ignored her and narrowed his sharp eyes to examine every corner of the cave. Damien and Draven saw Davin come in but didn’t see him go out. He must be inside here.
Seeing that he was ignoring her, Shermaine approached him slowly and stopped by his side. “Why are you visiting me, Evan? Is it because you missed me?”
Evan lowered his head and replied, “I want to tour around the cave! Is that okay?”
A tour around the cave? He’s here to find the guy impersonating Elias! Shermaine smiled and answered, “Outsiders aren’t allowed to explore this cave. If you really want to, you can, but you must become a resident of Daemonic Mount first.”
“You want me to join Daemonic Mount?” Evan stared at her coldly.
“No. We have very strict requirements as to who we accept here. Not everyone can join if they want to. What I mean is that you can be one of my people first. And if you’re my people, you can explore this place however you want, whenever you want! It’s quite a fair exchange, I must say.”
“I’m just gonna stop beating around the bush. Where’s the person who entered the cave earlier?”
Hearing that, Shermaine put on a serious expression and said, “We caught the person who was impersonating Elias earlier! He’s currently being tortured, so there’s no way you can save him easily!”
Tortured. Evan’s heart dropped. Davin has never experienced any significant pain before. How are they dealing with him? Is he…
“Where is he?”
Shermaine crossed her arms. “I’m not telling you! What are you going to do, huh?”
Evan tightened his fists. “Let him go or I’ll make you regret it!”
“Oh? And how are you going to do that?” Shermaine touched his shoulder as she spoke.
Evan swiftly dodged and pressed his hands on Shermaine’s shoulders. “Let him go, and I’ll let you go. Otherwise…” He then tightened his grip, causing her to yell out in pain.
