“You big meanie!” Emmeline exclaimed with her head on Abel’s shoulder, cutting off his sentence.
Abel gave a heartwarming smile and held Emmeline tightly.
Suddenly, the phone on his desk started ringing.
Abel picked up the handset.
His secretary’s voice could be heard from the other side, “Mr. Ryker, you have guests. They’re from the Murphy family.”
Abel frowned, “The Murphy family?”
The secretary said, “Yes, sir. It’s Mr. Flynn and Ms. Evelyn Murphy. They said they wish to discuss business.”
Abel replied, “Alright. Let them in.”
He then put down the handset and lifted Emmeline up.
“You can take a rest in the break room inside. I have some business matters to discuss.”
“Okay,” Emmeline nodded. She didn’t have the energy to do anything else but that.
Abel took her into the break room and placed her on the bed, then pulled a blanket over her.
Meanwhile, the secretary had just opened the door and invited Flynn and Evelyn inside.
There was a faint sensual atmosphere lingering in the room.
Evelyn felt it especially when she noticed the black handbag sitting on the corner of the desk.
She had seen Emmeline with this bag before.
So the reason for the sensual atmosphere in this room is because her and Abel were…
But where is Emmeline?
Evelyn looked around and ultimately noticed the door to the break room.
Emmeline is probably inside.
Flynn extended his hand courteously towards Abel and said, “Mr. Ryker, I hope this isn’t a bad time?”
“It’s fine,” Abel gestured for them to sit.
There were still beads of sweat on his forehead between the little gaps in his hair. The top two buttons of his shirt were also open.
