It was the CEO’s office of the Ryker Group.

Abel sat in front of the office desk.

Alana was fine, so Abel did not need to worry about treating her.

Abel’s immediate problem was Emmeline had agreed to Adrien’s marriage proposal!

Abel would not want to lose Emmeline like that.

Even though there were unresolved issues between Abel and Emmeline, Abel believed that things would eventually be resolved over time.

Abel picked up his phone to call Emmeline, wanting to ask Emmeline to reject Adrien’s marriage proposal.

When Abel unlocked his phone, the breaking news left him completely stunned…

Adrien announced the news of his engagement on the internet. The engagement with Emmeline was scheduled to take place tomorrow in the banquet hall of the Nimbus Hotel!

The matter was already set-in-stone!

Abel’s phone dropped on the office desk. Thud!

Emma, how can you be so heartless?

Can’t you give us some time?

Or perhaps, you don’t love me?

“Emma…”

The sky went dark.

Abel sat in the CEO’s office, emanating a cold air like an iceberg.

The employees were anxious, like treading on thin ice.

At 8.00 pm, Luca mustered the courage to ask, “Mr. Abel, can they leave work now?”

“Yes.” Abel waved his hand without batting an eye, “Everyone may go now.”

Luca realized Mr. Abel had a darkened face.

Luca noticed the chill air around Mr. Abel, but he dared not say anything.

He saw the news of the engagement between Emmeline and Adrien tomorrow.
