Quadruplets Unite: Mother's Words Are Law

Chapter 517

"But Mr. Ryker," Emmeline said, "the car should be fixed by now. You can have Luca send the bill to me. I have no shortage of money."

"I don't either, so let's not worry about it," he replied.

"It's not a small amount, a few hundred thousand at most," Emmeline insisted.

"It's nothing, really," Abel said dismissively.

"Then how about this," Emmeline suggested. "I'll take Mr. Ryker out to dinner to make up for it. It'll make me feel better."

Abel considered for a moment before nodding his agreement. "That sounds fine."

"I can invite some friends of Mr. Ryker's too," Emmeline offered. "The more the merrier, right?"

Abel wondered who to invite.

"Mr. Ryker, pick a time," Emmeline said on the other end of the line. "I'm available anytime."

"How about today at noon?" Abel suggested. "I don't feel like being at home."

Emmeline knew Abel wanted to avoid Evelyn.

"Sure, I'm free at noon too," she replied.

"Let's go to Nimbus Hotel then, how does that sound to you?" Abel proposed.

"That sounds great," Emmeline said. "I'll be there in a bit."

"Okay," Abel said. "Just be careful when you're driving. I don't want you getting into another accident and hitting someone."

"Don't worry," Emmeline laughed. "I don't care about anyone else. I only have eyes for you, Mr. Ryker."

Abel smiled, feeling his heart swell with affection. He couldn't believe he was starting to feel like he was in love.

But a small part of him was also nervous. Could he really be falling for this guy?




































He pushed those thoughts aside, not wanting to overthink things.

Abel shrugged to himself, figuring that as long as he was happy and not hurting anyone, there was no harm in indulging in his own desires.

Just then, his phone rang again. It was Benjamin calling.

"Abel?" Benjamin said in a bored voice. "I'm feeling lonely and bored. How about we grab lunch together?"

"Actually, I already made plans with a friend," Abel replied. "But it just so happens that you're here, offering to keep me company."

"That sounds good," Benjamin said. "What time and where?"

"Noon, at the Nimbus Hotel," Abel replied.

"Okay, see you then," Benjamin said.

...

Abel had booked the Golden Tier VIP room at the Nimbus Hotel and changed his clothes. Before leaving, he checked himself in the mirror to make sure he looked perfect.

Finally, he opened the door, only to find Evelyn standing outside, about to knock.

As Abel opened the door, Evelyn pushed her way in.

Abel caught her and looked at her with a stern expression.

"What are you doing here?" he asked.
