Chapter 695 The Wraith Petal
Henry halted in his tracks due to shock.
I remember seeing this lady when I ran into Kendra and Quincy at the hospital. She even took Kendra’s side and helped her when I was talking to Kendra.
Back then, the Ryker Group’s CEO, Abel Ryker, was there as well. He said that the lady was his wife…
Henry gasped inwardly. He was in a state of bewilderment.
How did Abel Ryker’s wife end up here in the Imperial Palace? She’s even sustained an injury and lost consciousness.
Is it possible that I’ve made a mistake? I’ve only met Abel Ryker’s wife once, after all.
“Why are you just standing there?” Adam still had his mask on. “Hurry up and treat her!”
“Understood!” Henry snapped to his senses and started examining the wound on Emmeline’s head.
After administering the anesthetic drug, Henry cleaned and stitched up the wound carefully. He managed to get the entire procedure done in less than thirty minutes.
After he had completed the task, Henry excused himself. On the other hand, the nurse was connecting a drip to Emmeline’s hand.
Adam stared at Emmeline’s face for the longest time. Even though there were shadows under her eyes and her lips were pale and dry, Adam still found every part of Emmeline’s face beautiful and adorable.
“The two of you can leave now.” He waved his hand dismissively at the maid and the nurse.
Those two ladies gave a slight bow and exited the room.
“Emmeline, you’ve finally come back to me.”
Adam muttered in a barely audible voice as he focused his gaze on Emmeline’s face.
He slowly traced the outline of her face with his finger. Adam could hardly suppress the smile on his face.
I’ve been yearning to touch her like this all this time. Now, I finally have her within my grasp.
I’m glad I saw the news that was released by Benjamin. If I hadn’t questioned Alana and found her this quickly, Emmeline might have been in grave danger!
Just then, Adam recalled the phone that he had found at the dungeons.
It seems like Evelyn is involved in Emmeline’s abduction this time as well. That woman does not know when to stop!
I gave her a fair warning last time!
However, the punishment for Evelyn is the least of my concerns now. More importantly, I need to find a way to keep Emmeline by my side.
It’s been one of the greatest regrets of my life when I failed to make Emmeline mine through the Canary Project.
Who knew that fate would bring this lovely little thing back to me in such an unexpected way?
Luck must be on my side this time!
I think I’ve found the perfect way to make Emmeline stay with me for the time being.
Firstly, I need to contact Mr. Ywain from Sunny Avenue and get his help.
