Chapter 1415 No Blood Relation

Abel answered the call. “Mr. Vendall”

“Abel. Scout sounded relaxed. “Come over to my office,”

“Alright. Abel hung up the phone.

When Abel arrived at Scott’s office, Alana was there.

“You wanted to see me?” Abel asked calmly.

“Have a seat first, Scott gestured.novelbin

Abel sat down on the sofa and asked, “What’s the matter?”

“Theard from Alana that your parents have come back?” Scott inquired.

“Yes. Abel intended to explain that it was his uncle and aunt instead of his parents. However, herealized it wasn’t necessary upon further consideration.

“I was thinking of asking Alana to visit them with you, Scott suggested.

“Is that necessary!” Abel frowned, as they weren’t that close anyway,

“Abel, Scott said. “You have been working for me for so many years. Now, it’s Alana’s turn to work withyou I have to express my appreciation.”

His words left no room for misinterpretation.

Abel pondered for a moment and said. “Your consideration is thoughtful. However, there’s somethingmore important at the moment that requires your guidance.”

“Alright. Go ahead. Scott leaned back in his chair.

Abel explained, “I plan to hold the inauguration ceremony for the Ryker Group within this month. Manybusiness partners from the Foodie’s Paradise will come to show their support. The leaders in Altney,who have always supported us, will also be invited as the chief guests. I want to draft a part of theinvitation. letter. Hence, I would like to acquire your guidance to make it perfect.”

Scout nodded. “You’ve considered it comprehensively. They’re also watching our actions. Furthermore,local businesses are bound by local regulations. Etiquette is absolutely crucial.”

“Okay,” Abel said. “Then, please guide me on how to distribute these invitation letters.”

“I will give you a list later,” Scott responded. “You can personally invite them by going door–to–dooraccording to the list.”

“Thank you for your help. Mr. Yendall.”

“How about the matter regarding the meeting with Abel’s parents?” Alana asked. “Shouldn’t I showsome respect as well?”

“I have the final say in this matter. Scott waved his hand as he said, “You and Abel can make thearrangements now. Alana, choose a few good gifts. Don’t embarrass me!”

Abel sighed as this was the only way things could be done.

After selecting the gifts, he brought Alana to meet his family in Altney.

Alana linked her arms with Kimberly’s, showing a close affection.

On the other side, Maxwell intended for Alana to stay for dinner. Nevertheless, Abel rejected him. Heimmediately understood the situation–Alana was just going through the motions. Besides, Abel had notinterest in her. Therefore, he also went along with it and sent them off.

After coming downstairs, Alana immediately took the front passenger seat. When they came just now,Abel had actually asked her to take the back seat. However, she seemed to have forgotten about itnow.

In front of Maxwell and Kimberly, Abel didn’t lose his temper

On the way, Alana asked, “Abe, are Mr. and Mrs. Louise your parents?”

Tm Ryker, and they’re Louise. Isn’t that obvious?”

“So, Emmeline is not your own sister?” She continued to ask. “I thought she took her mother’s lastname.”

Abel squinted his eyes and cast a glance at Alana, who was full of doubt. Tll tell you a secret. Do youwant to know?”

“Yes!” Alana was excited. “Of course, I want to know your secret!”

Then, listen carefully,” he said slowly. “Emma is the only girl I have ever loved, in the past, now, andforever!”

Alana was completely shocked. Then, she sneered, “But you can’t get married. You are cousins, right?”

“You’re so naive.” He sneered. Tve told you that my last name is Ryker. Even if we are cousins, wehave not blood relation!”

She was shocked by his statement again.

“Besides,” Abel said in a cold voice. Tm warning you here and now. It’s better for you not to meddle inyour father’s affairs. Otherwise, you’ll bear a gruesome consequence!”

His tone remained casual, but it sent shivers down Alana’s spine.

“But…”

Her expression faltered. She didn’t want to be an accomplice to her father as he hadn’t done anythingfor her.

“Abel, I’m not doing this for my father,” she said while looking at Abel with her melancholy eyes. “Can itbe for myself!”

“What do you mean?” Abel frowned.

“Well,” Alana responded. “My father placed me by your side, but didn’t you know? I fell for you at firstsight, though. Didn’t you know that?”

Abel sneered. “I told you not to think about anything other than your work!”

“I will do my job well. I won’t cause you any trouble.” Alana choked back her tears. “But I love you–andthat’s my own business!”

“You should have self–awareness!” He gripped the steering wheel and declared, “I won’t fall in lovewith anyone else other than EmmalTM

“I don’t believe it!” Alana leaned closer to him. “I don’t believe men can be faithful!” D

“Let’s wait and see then, Abel said coldly. “Don’t embarrass yourself!”

On the other side, at Magic City Rainbow Station. Emmeline disembarked from the train at 3 o’clock inthe morning. The train this year had achieved a significant increase in speed for the first time.

Dim, yellow lights were scattered all around, and a light drizzle fell from the sky. The night had adésolate quality to it.

Emmeline felt like she had seen this scene in a dream.
