Alana inquired, “Oh, is Adrien feeling better?”

Abel nodded, “Hmm, he’s much better now.”

Alana said, “I heard Emmeline visited him, and she bought Adrien desserts. Adrien asked Emmeline to feed him. She seemed to have fed Adrien the dessert. They were laughing, and they appeared to be having a great time.”

After a moment of silence, Abel smiled faintly and said, “Really?”

Alana said, “Yeah, I was just taking a walk in the hallway and heard them clearly. Adrien even joked that no matter how sweet the dessert, it’s not as sweet as Emma’s lips. He said, “A kiss from her tastes sweeter than honey”.”

Abel’s demeanor changed, he appeared dispirited.

Are Emma and Adrien really this close? There’s no surprise there, given that they have children together.

When Alana noticed Abel’s dejected expression, she sneered and continued, “Emmeline has been very worried about Adrien lately. Maybe she will drop by soon.”

Alana kept adding oil to the flames. She wanted Abel’s jealousy and anger to burn fiercely so that seeing Emmeline would make him angry.

As expected, Abel grew more upset. He said, “Well, I should probably head out at this point. I’ve work to do at the office.”

He strode out of the room and flung open the door before Alana’s response. He happened to see Emmeline arrive, and she was about to open Adrien’s door.

As one of them entered Adrien’s room, the other was leaving Alana’s room. They both froze at the door.

Abel then moved swiftly past Emmeline’s shoulder. As he stepped into the elevator, he exuded an icy coldness. His expression was indifferent and cold, as if he had not noticed her.

After Abel entered the elevator, Emmeline finally turned around and peered at the elevator.

Has Abel just left Alana’s room? He treated me like a stranger and had an icy aura about him. He just leaves without saying a word to me. Am I invisible to him?

Emmeline fixed her gaze on the elevator doors. She felt hurt, sad, and angry. She wanted to destroy the elevator so she could drag Abel outside and beat him mercilessly.

Whether I’m interested in you or not, you can’t treat me this way! What the hell?

Emmeline shot a vicious glare at the closed elevator doors before she pushed the door open.

When Adrien saw Emmeline again, he leaped out of bed with joy. This time, he did not receive an IV. Emmeline did not hold him down, instead, she let him jump.

“Emma, you have come to see me again! Oh my god, I’m so happy!”

“Here are some new desserts I just bought. They’re different from last time. Give them a try.”

Emmeline set the desserts on the bedside table while she suppressed her frustration.

Adrien was overjoyed. He hugged Emmeline tightly.

Emmeline was startled, and she shouted at him, “Hey, Adrien, what are you doing!”

Adrien lifted Emmeline into the air and stated, “I’m going to lift you up and lift you high.”

Emmeline blushed and threatened, “Put me down. I’ll get angry if you don’t behave!”

“Please don’t be mad at me. Don’t be angry.”

Emmeline was quickly set down by Adrien. His expression was one of indulgence and joy.

“I’m so happy. It’s worthwhile to take that bullet!”

Emmeline sternly reprimanded, “Don’t say that. I don’t want you to get shot, no matter how bad you are.”

Even Alana, who lived next door, shouldn’t get shot, no matter how bad she was.

Adrien chuckled and said, “Emma, I’m not a bad guy; I’m just simple-minded. When I was younger, Adam or Abel would tease me, but I never got back at them because I couldn’t outsmart them, haha.”

Emmeline could not help but burst into laughter too.

I’m beginning to think Adrien is really cute. This man is naive, that much is true. He could be the kind of simpleton that resembles a husky.

Emmeline thought about this. She began to visualize a husky with Adrien’s head.

“Hahaha,” Emmeline couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
