“Of course!” Adam said. “He’s the son of my second maternal aunt. I knew him since we were wearing diapers.”
Abel was surprised.
His cousin is named Anthony Green?
“What’s your cousin’s job?”
“He’s running the family business,” Adam replied. “It’s a small company anyway. Nothing remarkable.”
“Oh.” Abel said.
Looks like that Anthony Green isn’t the one I’m looking for.
Why are there so many people named Anthony Green? Inspector Charles has a dozen Anthony Greens in his database.
“Why did you ask about Anthony?” Adam asked, feeling a little uneasy.
“Nothing. Just asking,” Abel said.
Adam did not say anything. The tension was awkward.
“Well then, I should take my leave. Rest well, Adam,” Abel said as he stood up.
“Mm.” Adam nodded. “See you.”
He did not want Abel to remain there. He always felt uneasy when talking to Abel.
Adam was also afraid that he might accidentally say something that he was not supposed to. Also, Abel had a dominating presence, and his eyes looked like they could see through a man’s thoughts.
Abel left the room. Luca and several bodyguards followed behind him and went into the elevator.
The first–floor lobby was crowded. Everyone made way for the group because they looked intimidating.
Suddenly, Abel heard someone call out his name from behind him. “Mr. Ryker?”
Abel stopped walking and turned around. Luca and the others also turned around.
They saw Paul standing there.
Next to Paul was Edmond, his eldest son, and several bodyguards.
In front of Edmond was a wheelchair with Flynn sitting on it.
Abel was surprised. He walked toward them.
