"Are you scared?" Alana snickered. "Didn't you say that you had tried to poison Emmeline before? Why are you so shocked to hear about my plan?"
"That's an entirely different thing!" Evelyn went on, "I can add the poison to her food or drinks discreetly without letting anyone find out. However, I don't have it in me to kill someone with my own hands."
"Leave it to me, then!" Alana said confidently, "I've been waiting for this day for a very long time."
"When are you going to do it?"
"Tomorrow," Alana smirked. "Have you forgotten that Emmeline and Abel's wedding is happening tomorrow?"
"Hahaha! I've almost forgotten about it!" Evelyn's eyes shone with excitement.
"Everything is going so smoothly!" Alana said chirpily, "We can secretly contact a few reporters and have them release news of Emmeline eloping with another man! Or that she had abandoned Abel!"
"Alana, you just came up with the perfect plan! That's a really clever plan!" Evelyn agreed wholeheartedly.
Alana laughed sinisterly. "Emmeline, I bet you never saw this coming, huh?"
Evelyn had a malevolent grin on her face as well. "Maybe I'll be able to win Abel over in the end after all!"
"Hah! Dream on! Abel won't spare you a glance even with Emmeline out of the picture!" Alana scoffed.
Evelyn remained silent as she could hardly retort Alana's words.
At the same time, Abel had arrived back in Struyria on his private plane. Then, he brought his men and headed to the town where Benjamin had informed him about.
On the other hand, Benjamin and his bodyguards were going around the streets and asking everyone they met if they had seen Emmeline.
Since Emmeline was driving a super expensive sports car, she would stand out a lot in a quiet, laid-back town like the one they were in.
However, even after asking all the shop owners and pedestrians on the streets, none of them seemed to recall having come across a lady that resembled Emmeline the day before.
Three hours later, Abel arrived at the town. He went straight to where Benjamin was.
Both of them could not hide the worry and exhaustion on their faces as they stood by the roadside.
"How did it go?" Abel asked, "Did you manage to find any new clues on Emma's whereabouts?"
