Reborn: The Tyrant's Obsession novel Chapter 183

Chapter 183: He had a panic attack

In Westra City.

Fire erupted from an abandoned building. As the flames curled behind them, Adrian strode out of the place with an unflinching face.

Ji Yan followed the man.

Soon, people started jumping off the huge building from various corners.

"They are showing up now instead of hiding. But Second Master, I doubt the governor is here..."

"Look for him." Adrian watched the fire blowing up in the haziness of the dawn with indifference.

"Yes..." Ji Yan quickly took out his phone and made a few calls before he turned to Adrian.

Adrian stared ahead. Calm on the outside. A storm beneath. The fire reflected in his eyes like war drums beating in silence.

"I have heard of a grand auction taking place in the Westra City, pulling people from all across the world," Ji Yan observed the man’s expressions, "And the auction house where the auction will be held is Vermilion Bird Auction House."

The moment Ji Yan finished speaking, a sharp gaze snapped to him.

Ji Yan flinched, "Second Master, it’s not a false information. Back then, the Old Master had gifted the Vermilion Bird Auction House to the First Master and this property has remained under his name even after his... death."

Adrian’s eyes narrowed and his gaze turned to the fire ahead. The reflection of it in his dark eyes made it look like there was a fire burning in them.

’’Lately, there have been such strange occurrences happening in Westra City. Could it really be...?" Ji Yan did not finish his words. He did not dare to.

The sudden ringing of a phone pierced through the tension in the air.

As Ji Yan stepped to the side to answer the call, Adrian strode towards the sedan parked at a little distance.

"Second Master... Second Master... Miss Yu.. She..."

Adrian halted in his tracks.

When the man turned around, his entire aura was enshrouded in a darkness that seemed capable of swallowing the entire world, "What... happened to her?"

Ji Yan almost passed out yet he braced himself as he spoke, "She left the mansion in the morning and she hasn’t been back since. The footage shows that she has left Eve Mansion..."

Ji Yan’s heart was trembling. He had known. Despite their constant fights and bickering, things were too smooth between his second master and Ella.

It turned out that the woman had never given up on the idea of running away after all. All this time, she was biding her time, gaining trust and growing chances for success in her escape attempt.

"Second Master, I have asked our people to look for her. I will send our people right away..."

"No need.’’

Ji Yan was stunned.

Adrian’s face seemed paler than usual. A harsh glint flickered in his bloodshot eyes. The veins on his forehead popped strikingly under the sun and it seemed like he was refraining himself from something.

’’No need to bring her back."

If Ji Yan was stupefied earlier, he doubted his existence at this moment. No need to... bring her back?

No need to bring Ella Yu back?

His second master... really let go...?

"Second Master!" Ji Yan immediately ran to the man who clutched his head with both his hands.

In a swift movement, Ji Yan opened the car door and helped the man inside.

Veins popped up on Adrian’s neck, his fingers curled around his hair, his eyes were bloodshot. The man seemed to be losing his breath.

Ji Yan immediately pulled out his phone and dialled a number.

The call was answered on the second ring, "Yanyan, did Adrian discard his phone again today? Why is getting so hard to get in touch with him—"

"Dr. Knight, the Second Master’s condition worsened suddenly..."

In Vermilion City, Ronan looked away from the Ambrose Mansion and turned the steering wheel around, "Was he asleep? Is it an episode again?"

’’No... No, he wasn’t asleep. It’s just we got the news. Miss Yu. She’s missing... again."

"Sh*t." Ronan’s voice dropped. "Tell me what he’s doing right now. Everything. Don’t leave anything out."

Ji Yan observed Adrian. The man’s veins were popping and his hand that was clutching his head earlier had shifted to the left side of his chest. He was inhaling sharply yet... unable to breath.

Ronan inhaled a deep breath, "He is not having his usual episodes..."

"Dr. Knight, what’s happening...?"

"Adrian is having a panic attack. Put me on speaker. Now."

Ji Yan got inside the car, his heart heavy.
