Chapter 214
After being stabbed by Abellyn, Ryder did not return to work for a few days.
He was someone who worked hard his entire life. Though his injury was still
healing, he couldn’t bring himself to laze at home. Thus, he decided to head
out and pick up his son first.
However, when he arrived at the school, the teacher said Tommy had
already been picked up by Abellyn.
What was going on?
He had a bad feeling. After all, Abellyn had never walked with Tommy to or
from school before. What kind of tricks was she up to?
He hurriedly called her only to hear Abellyn loudly grumbling, “My parents are
here today. Can’t I even pick up my son so that we could all have a peaceful
dinner? Don’t come here. I don’t want to start a fight again!”
That infuriated him.
Still, he had to respect his in–laws. A good meal with them would be better for
Tommy than the simple meal he would be getting if he dined with Ryder.
Since Tommy was not around, he called Emmanuel who had said he wanted
to visit. However, it had been two whole days!
“Give me a few minutes, Ryder. I’ll head on over after I drop Mackenzie back
home.”
After that reply, Emmanuel hung up the call abruptly because Mackenzie
walked out of the office doors.
“What? You’re going out again tonight?”
Mackenzie frowned from where she was sitting in the car. How was his
schedule busier than hers?
“Abellyn picked up Tommy for some bonding time, so Ryder will be home
alone. I’ll show him the video of Abellyn cheating on him and discuss what to
do then,” Emmanuel replied in a casual manner.
To his surprise, she felt something was off about the situation. In fact, she
even suggested, “How about we have dinner on our own and I will go with
you later?”
“Huh?”
He was stunned. Why was she being so friendly?
“What? Do you not want me there?”
Her question was a deliberate poke at his reaction.
“Ah, no. I’m just happy. With you around, we would absolutely be able to come
up with the best solutions!”
