“It’s already eleven o’clock. Seems like I exhausted you last night,” Abel said. “It’s your fault. We did it four times, you know,” Emmeline said as she blushed. “I haven’t had enough. If I didn’t care about you, I could’ve done it until morning…” Abel said by her ear.
“Do you still want me to get out of bed? I still have important matters to attend to today,” Emmeline said. “Important matters? What’s up?” Abel asked. Emmeline recalled Janie’s words and said, “I just want to get some clothes for our honeymoon.”
“Want me to accompany you?” Abel asked joyfully. Emmeline was about to become his bride. Although their kids were already four years old, he was still looking forward to their wedding. “There’s no need for that. It would be boring for a man like you,” Emmeline replied.
“Alright. Be sure to call me if you’re in trouble,” Abel said. He kissed Emmeline on the lips. “I will,” Emmeline said as she nodded. “Well, it’s time to get out of bed. I made breakfast for you,” Abel said. “Thanks, Hubby. You’re the best!” Emmeline said as she kissed him.
Abel pulled the blanket away and crouched down to help her put on her slippers. He caressed Emmeline’s head and said, “Go wash up while I set the table.” Emmeline nodded and entered the bathroom.
After breakfast, Abel went to Ryker Group while Emmeline rested in bed. Her legs felt weak after last night with Abel. She began to feel uneasy as she did not receive any messages from Janie. She decided to text her first. “Janie, can we meet now?”
After a while, Emmeline received a reply. “I’m still at Falmouth. Let’s meet up here.”
“We looked for you at Falmouth. Why didn’t you meet us?”
“I didn’t want to see Benjamin.”
“Mr. Benjamin has been looking for you ever since you left. He’s worried about you.”
