Adie hung up right after divulging the key information. He also switched off his phone’s GPS system so


    that the police wouldn’t find him too soon.


    On top of that, he intentionally left his belongings behind at the hotel when he left earlier. If the police


    caught Briar now, there’d be solid evidence of her crime. ‘Hehe!’


    After William finished smoking, he returned to the car. Adie was still sleeping. William couldn’t resist


    sighing.


    “Poor kid.”


    He filled up the petrol tank and started driving faster than before.


    Water Dock was even brighter at night than during the day. All types of people were out and about.


    Ordinary people wouldn’t even dare enter thiswless ce.

    Men would have their organs harvested, while women would be forced into prostitution. As for fair,


    good-looking boys like Adie, one could only imagine the horrors that would befall him if he was caught


    on the streets!


    William’s legs were shivering when he drove into this area.


    Unfortunately, their car was stopped less than a mile away from Carmine Pawnshop.


    Bang!


    One of William’s car tires ruptured. A man with one eye walked over with a watermelon knife while


    chewing gum. ‘ Hey, you must be real bold,ing to Water Dock in the middle of the night. Your tire’s


    blown. You’re lucky I’m here to help.”


    William held onto the steering wheel tightly. “Thanks but no thanks. I have a spare tire.”


    “Your tire is inferior to mine. My tire is the passport you need to enter Water Dock. I guarantee you’ll be


    able to go wherever you like when you have it on. Otherwise, you might just suffer more punctures!”


    Clearly, the one-eyed man was the person who intentionally caused William’s tire puncture. His


    objective was to demand money.


    William couldn’t be bothered to argue any further. “How much does your tire cost?”


    “That depends on what valuable goods you have.” The one-eyed man chewed on his gum before


    looking into the car. He was initially searching for expensive goods, but his eyes lit up when he saw


    Adie, who was sleeping in the backseat. “Your kid here looks valuable. He’s fair and adorable. I’ll adopt


    him as my son.”


    No way! Somebody has already made a booking. You better not get any wrong ideas. If you want


    money, make an offer!” William eximed.


    “Damn it! I’ll do whatever I want. Stop yapping!” The one-eyed man pped William across the face


    and swung his watermelon knife around. “Cut the crap. Get out of the car right now. This kid is mine.


    Otherwise… I’ll chop your head off!”


    “Dream on!” William quickly rolled up the window and locked the doors. He then stepped on the gas as


    hard as he could, intending to drive directly to Carmine Pawnshop.


    However, the one-eyed man, an influential person in the dock, immediately ordered someone to block


    his way with another car. He then struck his watermelon knife against the car door. “Damn it. Get out,


    or I’ll chop your head off!”


    “This…” William panicked. He didn’t expect the man to be so unreasonable. Just as the rumors


    imed, Water Dock was as terrifying as hell. It exined why Briar sent him!


    “What are you waiting for? Step on it!” Adie could no longer pretend to be asleep. He got up and


    started yelling at William.
