Ambush of the Quadruplets novel Chapter 816

“Any businessman worth his salt will be interested,” Abel said with a smile. “It’ll all depend on the price.”

“We’ll have to see how things go during the auction then,” Inspector Charles said. “Once the investigation and the paperwork are done, it can be put up for auction soon.”

“Mm.” Abel nodded.

“If there’s nothing else, I should get back to work,” Inspector Charles said. “If I linger here for too long, it won’t look good on me.”

“Don’t worry about us. We’ll just take a look around here,” Benjamin said.

Inspector Charles hurriedly went away. He would rather not be seen with those two influential figures.

Abel and Benjamin were about to leave when they saw Adam.

Adam’s head wound had not recovered. He was wearing a hat.

He was also dressed in a black suit and a dark gray trench coat, and that made him look like a mobster.

He looked cool yet amusing at the same time.

“Why is he here?” Abel mumbled to himself and went over to him.

“Adam?”

Adam was shocked when he heard Abel’s voice.

“Abel?”

“I didn’t expect to see you here,” Abel said.

“Oh. I heard that the Imperial Palace will be put up for auction soon, so I’m here to survey the scene.”

“Are you interested in the Imperial Palace?” Abel handed him a cigarette.

The bodyguards quickly lit them up.

“If the price is right, of course,” Adam said. “I see a few other big bosses around the area too.”

“Mm. I’d consider it if the price is right,” Abel said.

“You don’t have to consider it then,” Adam said. “The Ryker family can buy the place and let me run it. The rest of you can sit back and enjoy the dividends.”

“That sounds good and all, but the Imperial Palace is nonetheless an entertainment establishment. There’s not much money to be had,” Abel said.
