“Rest assured. Mr. Adam and I are about to get married. I’m sure he’ll go along with me,” Evenly said. “Is that so?” Alana replied. She felt that Evelyn was just a pawn to Adam. He would discard those that had served their purpose.

Abel returned to the Precipice but Emmeline was nowhere to be seen. As he was about to phone her, a silver Bugatti drove into the front yard. Emmeline stepped out of the car feeling upset. Abel knew that she still had not made any progress in locating Janie.

Abel approached her and brought her into a tight embrace. “You’ve been searching for her nonstop for the past four days. You’ve lost some weight,” he said. “There’s no sign of Janie anywhere. I’m worried about her,” Emmeline replied with teary eyes.

“She’ll be fine. She’s hiding from us because she wants to give birth in private,” Abel said. “I know. What if she’s in danger? She can’t defend herself,” Emmeline said. “I’m concerned about this too. The intelligence agency is working on it too. Hopefully, there’ll be news soon,” Abel said.

Emmeline stood on her toes and kissed Abel. “Thanks, Hubby,” she said. “There’s no need to thank me. However, did you forget that a special day is around the corner?” Abel said as he pinched Emmeline’s nose gently.

“I know it’s our wedding day soon. However, I’m not in the mood for that when Janie is missing,” Emmeline said. Abel pulled her close and kissed her forehead. “I understand. I’m working with Benjamin to find Janie as soon as possible. After that, we’ll invite her to our wedding,” Abel said.

Emmeline was aware of the pain that a pregnant woman had to bear with no one close around. She prayed that Janie was safe. “Why are you crying again? What would you like to eat? I’ll go make it for you right now,” Abel said.

“I’ve lost my appetite. I don’t feel like eating as my mind is a mess.” Emmeline said. “That won’t do. Be a good girl and go change your clothes. I’ll make you some soup,” Abel replied as he caressed her shoulders.

Emmeline nodded in response. Abel carried her to their room and placed her on the bed. After he left, Emmeline’s phone rang. She reached for her phone and realized that it was Eric. She swiftly answered the call.

“Ms. Louise, Mr. Benjamin is surrounded, please come and help him,” Eric said. “He’s surrounded? Who are they?” Emmeline replied. “It’s a group of women. All of them claimed that they are Janie. We can’t scold or beat them. The security guards are helpless. That’s why I’m calling you,” Eric said.

“Alright. I’m coming over right now,” Emmeline said as she rushed down the stairs. “What’s the matter?” Abel asked as he walked out of the kitchen with his apron on. “Ben is in trouble. I have to go help him,” Emmeline replied.

“Benjamin? What happened to him?” Abel questioned.
