Two days later, Struyria was rife with shocking gossip about Abel Ryker. The media outlets had published various photos and videos of Abel and Emmett. Some caught them holding hands, others caught Abel's arm slung around Emmett's shoulder. More importantly, the media painted them as two men who could not keep their hands off each other.

There are rumors that some of them are looking to terminate our partnership! The Ryker Group will be in trouble if this goes on…"
