Chapter 724 A Visit from Paul
Benjamin spoke up, “We didn’t come here just to spectate. As a member of the Louise family, you can help bear witness for Mr. Waylon. He didn’t do anything to provoke anyone.”
“I also saw it,” added Ethan. “It was my stepmother who was showing off to Mr. Waylon.”
“I can vouch for that chimed Grace. “It had nothing to do with that handsome guy, but he is quite handsome!” Ethan was surprised that even his wife was smitten with Waylon.
Benjamin emerged from the bushes and addressed Waylon, “We’re all here now. Please go ahead and use death–point striking, or whatever you need to do.”
Waylon felt a sense of relief as he saw the sudden appearance of the three individuals at the staircase. “Ma’am. I couldn’t take it anymore. Don’t blame me!” he explained as he tossed a coffee bean from his hand. Alondra was dancing when she suddenly felt something hit her ear, causing her to faint. Grace immediately rushed forward to catch her.
Ethan apologized profusely to Waylon, “I’m so sorry.” Waylon waved it off and instructed Ethan, “Quickly send your stepmother home before the meridian points automatically release after half an hour. Ethan and his wife helped Alondra down from the stage.
Benjamin also apologized to Waylon and explained that he didn’t anticipate Alondra’s behavior. Waylon Joked. “She is too enthusiastic and almost scared me.” Benjamin knew that Waylon wasn’t interested in women and had never been in a romantic relationship despite being 32 years old, so it was no surprise that Alondra’s seductive behavior frightened him.
Sam ran up from downstairs, grinning. “It’s all because of Mr. Waylon’s charm! Even female customers who come in for coffee are enchanted by him. They say they’ll return and bring more people.” Benjamin was stunned. Indeed, Waylon was remarkable. He could even become an internet sensation and promote products.
“Lady!” Waylon scolded Sam with a stern expression. “Do you want to be spanked?” Sam stuck out her tongue and quickly ran downstairs.
Abel returned to the Precipice, he was exhausted. He looked haggard and had a five o’clock shadow on his chin. “Emma, where are you? Are you okay? I’m so worried about you.” However, another day had passed, and there was still no news of Emmeline. Abel’s voice trembled as he spoke to the empty room, “Emma, do you think I am useless? I have failed to protect you so many times. I don’t deserve to live. Wherever you are, please hold on. I promise I will find you, and we will get married again. In this life, the next life, and every life after that, we will never be apart, Emma.”
Luca interrupted his thoughts, “Mr. Abel, there are guests here to see you.”
“Guests? Who?” Abel asked, raising his eyebrows.
“Paul Murphy from Altney,” Luca replied.
“Paul Murphy?” Abel jumped up from the sofa, “Let him in immediately!”
It was possible to hear the sound of a car pulling into the yard. Paul rushed into the living room shortly after, followed by Flynn, who held a handful of valuable gifts. Upon seeing Abel, Flynn almost fell to his knees. He grasped Abel’s large hand with both of his and cried out, “Mr. Abel, what did the Murphy family do to offend you? Why won’t you spare my family?”
Abel spoke icily, “Don’t you need to ask your precious daughter Evelyn? It’s unlucky that the Murphy
family has such a daughter.”
Paul frowned with a pitiful expression and tried to reason, “But Mr. Abel, didn’t Evelyn apologize to Ms. Emmeline?”
Abel sneered, “Do you even know that Emma had an accident? I don’t believe you haven’t seen the news.” Flynn seemed unsure, “Are these things related to Evelyn?”
Abel’s expression turned cold, “Do you think I have nothing better to do than target the Murphy family?”
Paul, who had been silent until now, finally asked, “What do you want me to do to spare my family, Mr. Abel?”
