“Tell her I don’t need it. Besides, I’ve never seen her as a friend of Emma’s.” Abel waved his hands impatiently.

“I’ll go and inform her again.” Luca ran downstairs.

Kendra took medicine from the study and said, “Mr. Abel, your medicine. Let me get you a glass of water.”

Abel’s face was getting paler every second. Then, Luca came running again. “Mr. Abel, Evelyn just won’t go. I can’t chase her away.”

Kendra gave the glass of water to Luca and said, “Luca, give Mr. Abel his medicine. I’ll go and take a look.”

“Sure. Perhaps it’s easier to talk between women.” Luca nodded and grabbed the glass of water immediately.

Kendra left Abel’s bedroom and heard Quincy crying. She carried Quincy and went to the gate. She saw a pretty woman wearing a dress standing outside the gate. Kendra approached Evelyn while carrying Quincy and said, “Miss, please go back. Mr. Abel won’t be seeing any guests today.”

“You are…” Evelyn looked at Kendra and wondered who she was.

The woman in front of her was in her twenties. She was pretty, kind, and smart. She was even carrying a baby.

Evelyn was puzzled. She wondered when Abel had such a small child since his four children were already annoying enough.

“I am Mr. Abel’s house’s nanny. Mr. Abel wants me to tell you to go home. He won’t be seeing anyone today.” Kendra said.

Evelyn pointed at the baby and asked, “The baby you are carrying. Is his surname Ryker?

Kendra was confused and asked, “How do you know?”

“Seriously?” Evelyn was shocked.

“That’s right. Her name is Quincy Ryker.”

Kendra thought Evelyn had a really good guess.

“Quincy Ryker… Is she really Emmeline’s fifth child?” Evelyn whispered to herself.

Kendra finally understood what Evelyn was saying. “Oh, I think you have misunderstood. This is my daughter. Not Ms. Louise’s.”

“Your daughter? Are you saying that you and Mr. Abel are…” Abel shouted.

“Miss, please don’t be rude. I already told you I am Mr. Abel’s nanny. There’s nothing between us!” Kendra said angrily.

Evelyn was dumbfounded. She wondered if Abel was actually a playboy. Perhaps the rumor she heard about him being loyal was fake.

“If she is your daughter? Why is his surname Ryker?” Evelyn asked.

“That’s none of your business. I don’t need to explain it to you.” Kendra said.

“Sorry. I am Emmeline’s friend. I don’t want her husband to bring another woman back home after she had an accident.”

Kendra was so mad, “What kind of nonsense are you saying? I’m not just another woman. Besides, Mr. Abel is not the kind of person you spoke of!”

“Are you saying that this child isn’t Mr. Abel’s?”

“Of course, not!” Kendra was so mad that her face went pale.

“What a relief. I was feeling anxious for Emmeline. Please don’t blame me.” Evelyn apologized.

“You said Ms. Louise had an accident. What happened?” Kendra asked.

“Didn’t Mr. Abel tell you?”

Kendra shook her head and her eyes were filled with tears, “I only know something happened to Ms. Louise. I didn’t know what happened to her specifically.”

“Unfortunately, Emma is… She’s dead…” Evelyn cried as she covered her face.

Kendra almost passed out and said, “What did you say? Is Ms. Louise dead? How is that possible?”
