Chapter 807 Visiting Adam at the Hospital
An hour later, Abel and Emmeline arrived at the hospital.
Benjamin was there too. He came from Glenbrook after taking a shower and changing his clothes. He seemed graceful and noble.
Abel and Benjamin exchanged glances at the door before going into the room.
Emmeline sat down on the bed and took Janie’s hand.
Janie’s eyes were filled with tears.
“I nodded off while driving. You know pregnant women get sleepy easily, right? I didn’t expect this would happen…”
“Don’t be sad. Rest well and get healthy soon. You’ll still be able to bear children after this,” Emmeline said.
“…I’m not married yet, so I won’t be thinking of children for now,” Janie said softly.
“What does Benjamin say? Are you two planning to get married?” Emmeline asked.
“I don’t want to get married. I came to my senses and thought I should stay single for another two years,” Janie said sullenly.
Emmeline did not know what to say.
She remembered Abel telling her not to meddle in Benjamin’s relationship affairs.
“Ahem,” Abel coughed as he closed the door behind him.
Janie lifted her head and smiled politely. “You’re here, Mr. Ryker.”
“Mm. Are you feeling better?” Abel asked as he put the gifts on the table.
“I’m feeling a lot better now. Thanks,” Janie said.
Abel was friendly toward Janie because she was Emmeline’s friend. Otherwise, his expression and tone would remain cold.
“What do you plan to do next?” Emmeline asked Janie.
“I think…” Janie turned her head toward Benjamin. “I think I want to go to work at Adelmar Studios.”
“Adelmar Studios?” Benjamin and Emmeline asked at the same time.
“I don’t want to remain at Adelmar Group,” Janie said. “I’m sure people will be gossiping about me, and I don’t want to hear any stories.”
“…” Benjamin nodded. “The working conditions are very good there. You can be an assistant manager.”
Emmeline did not say anything.
Janie wanted to leave Adelmar Group because she did not want to meet Benjamin, but she was not stupid. enough to quit her job.
The company provided full medical insurance coverage and hefty allowances, not to mention. generous bonuses at the end of the year. It would be hard for her to find the same treatment in other companies.
Moreover, Janie was a capable woman who achieved her current status using her own ability. She was not going to quit so easily.
“Thank you, Mr. York,” Janie said and nodded.
She was the head secretary at Adelmar Group. The transfer to Adelmar Studios would keep her at roughly the same post.
“There’s no rush though,” Emmeline said. “You can go to work after you’ve fully recovered.”
“I know,” Janie said with a smile. “It should take me a month. I need to make sure I’m totally fine.”
When they left the hospital, Abel suddenly remembered that Adam was still in the hospital.
At the birthday party, Abel had picked him up and tossed him when Deathly Desire took effect.
Now that he thought about it, he realized that he could have killed Adam back then, and Landen and Julianna would be out for blood.
Oscar might get a heart attack too. The scandal that Abel murdered his cousin would be all over Struyria.
“I’ll send you back to The Precipice,” Abel said as he gently hugged Emmeline. “After that, I’ll go to Ryker Hospital.”
Emmeline did not know that Adam was there, much less the reason for him being there.
“Why are you going there?” Emmeline asked.
“Adam is there. I want to visit him,” Abel answered truthfully.
Emmeline was not fond of Adam, so she did not ask why he was there.
She guessed that he was ill anyway, and it was normal for Abel to be concerned.
“Oh,” she answered briskly.
Abel brought Emmeline back to The Precipice, carried her into the house, and placed her on the sofa.
After giving some instructions to Kendra, he went to Ryker Hospital.
Adam was displeased when he saw Abel come in through the door.
He had just hired a sniper to dispatch Alana, and Abel was already here.
He wondered if Abel knew anything about it.
