“Never mind,” Emmeline urged, noticing Abel’s rising anger. She quickly grasped his arm and said, “It’s just a misunderstanding.’
“Yes, that’s correct,” Adam interjected. ‘She explained that it was simply a misunderstanding.”
Abel’s stern expression gradually softened as he told them to speak up. “What do you two plan to do?” he asked coldly.
Adam hesitated before speaking, “I just want Zahn to follow you, maybe as an assistant.”
Abel expressed his contempt. “I don’t need him. This is a business, not a gang.”
Adam responded with a chuckle, “What about being a driver? He’s not fit for physical labor either.”
Abel turned his head toward Zahn. Take a good look at him. A young man with a row of piercings on his ear. Do you think I can trust him? You are oversimplifying the situation.”
“He’s unmanageable at home too. Scarlett suggested leaving it to you since you’re the boss. now,” Adam admitted.
Abel was seething with anger but had no outlet for his feelings. He snorted and said, ‘I don’t have time for you. It’s getting late. Let’s go out for dinner.
Zahn’s face brightened as he had been famished for quite some time. “Where are we going to eat?” he asked.
“Of course, we’re going to a fancy restaurant!” Adam happily replied.
“We’ll cook for ourselves if you’re not coming. No one likes eating out, Abel said coldly.
Emmeline responded, “In that case, I won’t join you. You guys can talk freely,”
He countered, “You should still come. Eat whatever you like, even if the table is brimming with vegetables!”
“A table full of vegetables? How are we supposed to eat that?” Zahn exclaimed.
Abel explained, “Emma doesn’t eat meat, but you can eat whatever you want.”
“That works, too!” Zahn said.
After dinner, Abel arranged for Adam and Zahn to stay at a hotel.
He and Emmeline went to the shore of Glazer Lake.
They settled on a sizable rock there, enjoying the gentle night breeze.
Even before their encounter, the two men seemed to have an unspoken connection.
Upon learning about Brandon’s arrival time, Abel swiftly attended to company matters and drove to the capital city.
Just as he departed, a package arrived from Luminara.
Abel promptly called Alana and instructed her to receive it on his behalf.
The cardboard box appeared slightly damaged, revealing picture frames inside. Alana carried the heavy box to her office, her curiosity piqued. What is this?
As she locked the door, Alana grabbed a pair of scissors and carefully cut open the packaging.
To her amazement, it revealed a stack of breathtakingly beautiful wedding photos. To be precise, they were Abel and Emmeline’s wedding photos.
The bride and groom were captured in an intimate embrace, their eyes locked in a gaze filled. with affection.
An exquisite diamond ring sparkled brilliantly under the spotlight on Emmeline’s left hand.
Alana felt a sharp pang in her chest. Her breathing quickened, and her gaze grew unfocused.
What are Abel and Emmeline planning? Are they getting married? Wait, no, Emmeline is getting engaged to Albus! What is Abel’s intention? Is he willing to publicly declare his relationship with Emmeline despite the potential consequences?
