Chapter 1406 Who Is This Woman?
Abel drove the car and took Emmeline to his new company.
The security guard opened the electric gate and respectfully allowed Abel to drive in.
“Abel. Emmeline looked at him from the passenger seat. “What should we call you from now on? Should it be ‘Mr. Ryker‘ or ‘Boss‘?”
“What do you think?” Abel laughed. “Why go with ‘Boss? You think I’m running a gang or something?”
“What’s wrong with ‘Boss‘? Isn’t it more direct?” Emmeline blinked her eyes and reasoned. “Even customers address restaurant owners that way.
Abel glanced at her affectionately. “You really don’t follow the rules, as Vernon said.”
Emmeline laughed. “That’s because I don’t have any rules!”
As they cominued, Luca, driving a truck, happened to pass by. He leaned out of the driver’s seat and asked, “Boss, where should I unload the goods?”
Emmeline burst into laughter.
“D*mn it!” Abel cursed. That’s quite fitting.”
He turned to Luca and instructed, “West office, third floor, the two rooms on the far east.
Luca chuckled. “Now that you’ll be living in the company, it’ll be convenient to find you for a drink!”
“Cut the crap, Abel said. “Help me seule in first before you can have a drink!”
“Luca, if you keep dragging Abel into drinking, I won’t spare you!” Emuneline cautioned in a playful tone.
“Do you really believe that?” Luca asked. “Don’t you know Mr. Ryker’s temper? Who would dare to act out of line in front of him? I just wanted to speak my mind, that’s all!”
Emmeline laughed. Abel’s domineering decisiveness was well–known to everyone.
While Luca was unloading the truck downstairs, Tony and Benjamin also arrived,
Abel hadn’t brought much with him–just a bed, bedding, clothes, and daily necessities.
The two large office rooms on the far east side of the third floor had a door in the middle of the wall, creating a layout like a living room and two bedrooms.
A partition was added in the hundred–square–meter living room, dividing it into a kitchen and a bathroom.
After this arrangement, it completely transformed into a well–equipped and comfortable living space.
All these adjustments were made with Emmeline in mind.
As for himself, Abel could make do even with a sleeping bag.
However, if Emmeline also stayed with him, that wouldn’t suffice; there could be no compromises.
Originally intended as a temporary dormitory, it now exuded the warmth of a home.
While hanging the curtains, Tony remarked, “It’s better than I imagined. I feel a bit more at case.
“Make the most of your happy days with Janie,” Benjamin said. “Don’t let Abel’s efforts go to waste!”
“Absolutely!” Tony laughed foolishly, and there was even a glint of tears in his eyes.
Emmeline took out the newly purchased bedding and was about to unwrap the packaging when a sweet female voice came from the door. “Abel, I’ve brought the things.
It was a tall and beautiful girl–Alana Yendall.
Abel had almost forgotten about her existence.
Her sudden appearance reminded him of Scott’s arrangement, causing him to furrow his brows.
However, Emmeline appeared puzzled. Holding the sheets in her hands, she wondered, Who is this woman?
Alana sweetly smiled. “Abel, I bought new bed sheets, and I’ve already washed them. I’ll help you change them.”
As she spoke, she took out the bedsheets and spread them on the bed.
Emmeline held her newly purchased bedding and watched Alana’s graceful movements as she elegantly arranged the sheets.
She then turned to Abel with a blank expression.
Abel’s heart skipped a beat, and he quickly explained, “She’s my colleague. Don’t misunderstand.”
“I see…” Emmeline responded.
In her world, Abel was surrounded by no other women. However, the sudden appearance of this woman offered her a fresh perspective on reality.
That’s right; this is Abel’s company, and he would undoubtedly have female colleagues.
Emmeline placed her newly bought bedding inside the wardrobe,
“Abel, I’ve made the bed. Can you take a look?” Alana inquired.
Abel frowned. “Please address me more formally. And thank Mr. Yendall for me. You can leave now.”
“Since you’ve just moved in, there must be plenty of tasks to attend to. I can take care of cleaning up here.” Alana maintained her sweet smile.
“No need to trouble yourself. I have someone here, Abel firmly declined.
Alana’s gaze shifted to Emmeline. “Are you referring to her? She looks delicate and doesn’t seem like someone who does chores.
Emmeline found herself at a loss for words. She wasn’t particularly skilled in household tasks. 1
After Alana finished speaking, she rolled up her sleeves and carried a basin of water to the bathroom.
It was as if she were the mistress of this place.
“Abel, who is she?” Benjamin asked.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
