Chapter 531

From the rearview mirror, Luca glanced at Emmeline and spoke, “Ms. Louise, I know it was you allalong, even the setup earlier was orchestrated by me and Mr. Adrien. We meant well, but we didn’texpect Mr. Abel’s reaction to be so extreme.”

Emmeline replied, “So you also recognized me. Adrien must have told you.”

Luca nodded, “Yes, Mr. Adrien had good intentions this time, otherwise, I wouldn’t have collaboratedwith him.”

“I understand,” Emmeline said, looking down with a hint of sadness.

“You can’t blame Mr. Abel though,” Luca said. “Worryfree of The Adelmar Clan is no joke. Mr. Abelremembers everything about you, but he just doesn’t feel any emotional connection. He can’t help it.”novelbin

“I don’t blame him,” Emmeline choked up. “I know Waylon saved Abel back then. If I hadn’t survived,Abel would be in the best state he could ever be in.”

“But the situation is complicated now,” Luca furrowed his brow. “How are you two going to coexist in thefuture?”

“I heard from Waylon that the only way to make the cold symptoms return is through heavy exposure,”Emmeline said hoarsely.

“Heavy exposure?” Luca glanced at Emmeline again through the rearview mirror. “Ms. Louise, withsomeone like you, making Mr. Abel succumb wouldn’t be difficult. No man can resist a woman likeyou.”

“I’ll stay by his side like this for a while,” Emmeline said, her eyes downcast. “I believe that his feelingsfor Emmett are actually his feelings for me. He just accepted Emmett instead of Emmeline.”

“I agree,” Luca said. “Otherwise, Mr. Abel would really be a pervert.”

Soon, they arrived at the Nightfall Cafe. Luca watched as Emmeline pushed open the glass door andwent in before stepping on the accelerator and leaving.

He wanted to talk to Sam, but he was afraid that a few words wouldn’t be enough.

Luca decided to hold off on talking for now.

“Ms. Louise?” Sam turned around from the counter. “No wonder Mr. Abel called and asked me toprepare lunch for you. Is it really you?”

Emmeline nodded. “Yes.”

“But Ms. Louise,” Sam looked outside. “Why did you suddenly come back alone? What about Mr.Abel?”

And where was Luca, who was supposed to be by Mr. Abel’s side?

Emmeline pouted. “I was hurt by that heartless and fickle Abel, so I came back on my own.”

“Hurt?” Sam looked concerned.

Sam forgot about Luca and hurried over, grabbing Emmeline’s arm to check, “Where are you hurt? Letme see! I’m going to go find Mr. Abel and give him a piece of my mind!”

“Here,” Emmeline pointed to her heart, “It’s an internal injury.”

“Emotional injury?” Sam widened her dark eyes, “That’s not Mr. Abel’s fault, blame Mr. Waylon!”

“What can I do then?” Emmeline sniffled, “Should I cook Waylon and feed him to Abel? Will that cureWorryfree?”

“No,” Sam shook her head sadly, “Mr. Waylon said there’s no cure for Worryfree. Eating him won’thelp.”

“So what should I do?” Emmeline shrugged helplessly, tears welling up in her eyes.

“Let’s start with a cup of coffee, extra sweet,” Sam said, “There’s nothing that a cup of coffee can’t fix. Ifthat doesn’t work, we’ll have two cups.”

“Sure,” Emmeline sniffled and took a seat in the chair.

After a moment’s thought, she pulled out her phone and sent a message to Benjamin, “Come over andhave coffee with me, let’s grab lunch too.”

Benjamin replied immediately, “On my way.”

Followed by another message, “Janie is coming too.”

Ten minutes later, Benjamin’s Bentley pulled into the parking lot.

Janie and Benjamin got out of the car and walked into the café together.

Emmeline lifted her head from the coffee table and looked at Janie.

Janie was stunned by this stunning “handsome young man.”

Her eyes widened and she couldn’t help but let out a gasp.
