Chapter 1377 Coax Her

“I did.” Abel nodded.

“Why did you lie to me then?”

“I just didn’t want to tell you because I was useless,” Abel said with a gloomy expression, lowering his starr

eyes.

“How are you useless?” Emmeline objected, lifting her head in his embrace.

Abel said nothing.

“Why did you come today then? I thought you didn’t want to bother with me anymore!”

“Said who?!” Abel looked at her stubborn little face.

“That was how you behaved!” Emmeline pouted, looking annoyed.

“I didn’t. Emma…”

“I don’t want to hear it!” She pushed him away, turning to leave only for Able to grab her arm and pull her back into

his embrace.

He looked at her, lowered his head as if to kiss her, and then… and then he let her go.

“I got you a gift,” Abel said with a bitter voice.

“What is it?”

“Go downstairs and see.”

It was a sapphire blue wallet.

“I don’t want it!” Emmeline said with a cold face, tossing the wallet to Abel.

“Didn’t you lose your wallet? This is a replacement.” Abel continued to coax her.

“Blue represents water in the five elements, and water flows, so this wallet will get lost too. I might as well not have

it, Emmeline remained sulky.

Abel chuckled. What kind of theory is that?

“Tell me then,” he asked. “What element of wallet should I get you?”

How would I know? I haven’t studied that,” Emmeline turned away and refused to look at him.

Tony and Benjamin also laughed. This girl is clearly giving Abel a hard time! Looks like she was quite upset!

Just then, a woman entered the room. She was in her mid-thirties, of average build, and her skin was well-

maintained, but her complexion appeared somewhat dull

Benjamin stood up and addressed her, Scarlett?

Tony lowered his head, looking uncomfortable.

“The remaining fifty thousand, when are you going to give it to me?” The woman, Scarlett, didn’t acknowledge

Benjamin and instead stood in front of Tony with her head held high.

“I’ve said it before, three or four months. All the money has been invested in equipment,” Tony said. without raising

his head. “Let me make a little more, and I’ll give it to you.”

“The court order specifies that it can’t exceed three months, and it’s been almost fifty days now. You need to be

aware of this,” Scarlett spoke icily.

“Fine! If you have any further issues, find me privately. This is my company, and it’s not convenient here.” Tony also

adopted a cold demeanor.

“What’s not convenient? Benjamin is your staunch brother,” Scarlett mocked. “What do you have to hide. from

him? You can even let him take the blame for you!”

“Don’t talk nonsense here!” Tony was getting annoyed.

“Isn’t it the truth? If it weren’t for you, Benjamin almost had to take the blame for something that wasn’t his fault,

Scarlett persisted.

“Scarlett, we have guests here.” Benjamin tried to defuse the situation, and Tony was extremely embarrassed.

No wonder Benjamin showed up instead when I called his wife that time Tony was injured, Abel thought. They’ve

divorced, huh? But what blame did Benjamin take?

Abel took Emmeline’s hand and said, “It’s getting late. Emma and I will be heading home. You guys chat.”

Tony hurriedly apologized, “Remember to bring Emma over tomorrow, and we’ll meet with Vernon to discuss the

proposal.”

Emmeline nodded. “I’ll be there on time, Tony, don’t worry.”

Tony’s face was sweating profusely.

Emmeline also wondered what blame Benjamin had taken on.

“Should we go out for dinner or head home?” Abel asked as they sat in the car, helping Emmeline fasten her

seatbelt.

It felt like they were back to how things used to be.

Emmeline realized that no matter how much resentment she had toward Abel, as soon as she saw him, it all faded

away. Her heart was still filled with sweetness.

“I don’t want to go home; my parents will nag us.” Emmeline pouted, “I want to eat out with you.”

“Sure, where would you like to go?”

“How about by the lake? It’s quiet there.”

“Alright, your choice. We’ll go to the lake.”

Just then, Emmeline’s phone rang, and it was the home landline.

Emmeline sighed in disappointment and answered the call.

“Dad.”

“Emma, are you on your way back?”

“I’m on the road, Dad. I want to eat out with Abel.”

“Today’s not the right time, Emma.”

“What is it this time? I told you nothing is going on between Abel and I!”

“No, Emma, there’s someone waiting for you at home.”

A name flashed in Emmeline’s mind. A guy named Zeller…

Right, Albus Zeller! Good Lord, why is he so persistent?
