“Yeah. She can fight. Thank you for settling her down.” Abel gave a nod.

Ethan replied, “You’re Emma’s tenant. The fallout will only further complicate things.”

“I’ll take her back,” Abel remarked while helping Emmeline up.

Emmeline opened her eyes in a haze and was greeted by a handsome profile right in her face.

Thinking that she was dreaming, Emmeline reached out to give his cheek a squeeze. She curled her lips. “Abel, you have the gall to visit me in my sleep.”

Ethan brushed her hand off all the while keeping a stern look. “Of course, why won’t I? Since you’re still in dreamland, just spill whatever you want to say.”

“You’re a two-timing super sleazeball!”

Abel furrowed his brows. Well, that was not nice at all.

Ethan jumped to explain, “Mr. Abel, Emma is drunk. It’s the booze talking.”

“I don’t blame her. It makes sense why she’d think so.” Abel lent Emmeline support to advance forward.
