“Yes, Mr. Ryker!”

Two bodyguards charged toward the two women, grabbed them, and tossed them out of the lounge.

Adrien shuddered. “A… Abel… What do you want?”

“You should ask that yourself,” Abel said coldly. “Why are you here flirting with other women?”

Adrien tensed up and said, “It’s none of your business!”

“It’s none of my business, but I’m making it my business!” Abel roared. He approached Adrien and kicked his face.

Adrien quickly ducked and hid under a table.

“Hmph! Coward!” Abel snorted derisively.

Adrien was already drenched in a cold sweat.

He could tell Abel was only trying to intimidate him. If Abel wanted to get physical, Adrien would not have been able to dodge that kick.

According to his grandfather, Abel had become a devil after his five years of secret training!

In a second, Abel could turn into a killing machine!

Otherwise, Oscar would not have handed him the reins of Ryker Group.

With a trembling voice, Adrien said, “Abel, why are you throwing a tantrum at me so early in the morning? I’m your older brother! You humiliated me in front of those two women!”

Abel scoffed. “You should know why! How can you possibly face Emmeline and her children after this?”

Adrien was taken aback. He realized Abel was here to seek justice for Emmeline.

Adrien sat down angrily on a chair. “Now that you mention her, I have to say she’s a really stubborn one!”

“What do you mean?” Abel was confused. He saw Adrien send Emmeline back to the café the night before, and they had a brief conversation before Adrien left.

“Last night, Emmeline said she won’t marry me no matter what, and she told me to give up,” Adrien said angrily.

It was Abel’s turn to be taken aback. Should I think that it’s good news?

Adrien pouted when he saw the glint of anticipation in Abel’s eyes. “If you want to make your advances on Emmeline, you should clean up your mess first.”

Abel’s expression sank. He knew that Adrien was referring to the child in Alana’s womb.

“What a hypocrite!” Adrien rolled his eyes at him.

Abel could not find a retort to Adrien’s accusation.

After all, no one would believe him if he said the baby was not his.

“You’d better watch your back!” Abel said angrily and left the lounge.

Luca and the bodyguards quickly followed behind him. “Mr. Ryker, what about breakfast…”

“Get some for everyone,” Abel said sullenly. “Send two portions to the café too!”

“Yes, Mr. Ryker,” Luca replied.

Looks like he’s not angry enough to forget to eat! He’s considerate of Ms. Louise too.

Luca took a headcount of the bodyguards and bought twelve portions.

Everyone was out early that morning, and they were very hungry.

The bodyguards left Nimbus Hotel with Abel. One of the cars went to the café to deliver breakfast, while the others followed Abel to the hospital.

Abel wanted to visit Hesperus before he started work that day.

He somehow felt uneasy if he did not.

This is strange. Why do I care so much about Adrien’s son?

However, he could not convince himself not to visit Hesperus.

Abel parked the Rolls-Royce in the parking lot. He noticed the bodyguard who was supposed to deliver breakfast to the café had already returned.

The bodyguard walked toward him with the breakfast still in his hands.

Abel stepped out of the car and walked toward the bodyguard.

“Aren’t you supposed to deliver that?”
