Chapter 1301 Abel’s Backup Plan
Emmeline, Lewis, and Rosaline exchanged glances and followed Abel into the study, where Abelopened his laptop and connected it to the projection device.
In an instant, a towering skyscraper was projected onto the opposite wall. The building bore severalgilded letters, ‘RYKER, which shone brilliantly in the sunlight.
“Ryker?” Lewis muttered bewilderedly. “Abel, where is this building? This isn’t our family’s company, isit?”
“But it is. This is our company. One that truly belongs to us-Ryker Inc., Abel explained. “I establishedthis five years ago in Staniue. It currently operates projects in over a dozen countries and industriesworldwide. Its assets exceed three times those of Grandad’s company here. So even if I returnGrandad his. company, I still have this larger multinational conglomerate in my hands!”
Emmeline, Lewis, and Rosaline were all dumbfounded. They hadn’t realized that Abel had such apowerful backup plan. Even the munchkins who entered the room were stunned.
“Oh, wow, Daddy is actually so awesome!”
“You’re one to hide your light under a bushel, huh, Daddy?”
“Wow, I admire Daddy even more now!”
“Daddy, when will you take us to see this company?”
Abel crouched down, pulled his boys into his arms, and said with a smile, “I’ll look into it these nextcouple of days.”
“Let us go to Ryker Inc. first before taking the boys and Mom and Dad to Osea and visit my master onAdelmar Island,” Emmeline suggested.
“That’s a great idea!” Lewis was delighted. “I’ve been wanting to meet our in-law for the longest time.I’ve heard so much about him; I just need to meet him in person!”
“We’ll do as Emma suggests then,” Rosaline gushed. “Let’s thank our in-law for saving Emma and ourthree grandchildren back then!”
“Yay!” Sun clapped his hands. “We can finally see Grandpa Adelmar!”novelbin
“Yeah, I miss Grandpa Adelmar very much!”
“I do too!” Star echoed before holding Timothy’s hand. Timothy, you’re also Grandpa Adelmar’sgrandson! He says he misses you a lot, and his heart aches for you whenever he thinks of you!”
Timothy’s eyes welled up with tears, and he nodded vigorously. “Let’s go see Grandpa Adelmar then!”
Once everyone had settled down, Emmeline called Waylon and Benjamin, and in just half an hour, thetwo rushed to The Precipice.
Lewis and Rosaline quickly welcomed their two in-laws,
Waylon sat on the couch, calm and composed, saying, “We anticipated that this would happen from theday Emma decided to return to Struyria to find Abel. It’s no big deal, just a matter of sooner or later.”
Benjamin added, “That’s why, as a precaution, Master Adelmar sent me to accompany Emma. It’salways good to be prepared.”
Waylon continued, “It seems that Mr. Ryker hasn’t given Emma a hard time, and letting you all leaveunscathed is already the best outcome.”
“It’s because Abel agreed to give up everything related to the Ryker family that Father allowed us toleave,” Lewis explained.
Waylon chuckled in response. “Well, I believe Abel had a backup plan all along, didn’t he? If my guessis right, the new alien force in Staniue is his.”
“I knew I couldn’t fool you,” Abel said with a chuckle. “This was a private venture of mine five yearsago. I didn’t expect it to come in handy now.”
“We had our eye on this multinational corporation before, Benjamin said. “We also noticed itsconnection. to you, but we didn’t want to inquire further until this special occasion.”
“What are your plans now?” Waylon asked. “Are you going to Staniue?”
Emmeline replied, “We have all decided to take a look at things in Staniue before heading to Osea. Weintend to stay in Osea for some time.”
“That sounds good,” Waylon said. “Dad will be overjoyed when he hears this news!”
“Let’s not tell him just yet.” Emmeline winked. “We’ll surprise him with our visit!”
Waylon guffawed in response. “Alright, we’ll go with your plan. Dad will certainly be thrilled when hesees. you and your family at his doorstep.”
“That settles it,” Abel said. “Let’s have dinner tonight at The Precipice. I’ll cook!”
“Count me in!” Waylon added.
“I’ll join too.”
“Invite Doris and Janie too,” Emmeline suggested. “The more the merrier.”
“Just Janie will do,” Waylon looked at Benjamin. “She’s Benjamin’s soon-to-be wife, but what role doesDoris have to play?”
