âI am Emmelineâs friend. Canât I feel concerned for her?â Evelyn said.
Janie was too lazy to argue with her and said with disgust, âFasten your seatbelt!â
She started her car and drove out.
20 minutes later, both Abel and Janieâs cars drove inside Adelmar Groupâs square. Cars were prohibited to park there, but Abel and Janie could not wait any longer. They stopped their cars and rushed into the building as Evelyn followed.
The buildingâs security guards tried to stop them, but they did not act when they saw the person rushing inside was the CEO of Ryker Group.
Before they could stop Janie and Evelyn, both of them already ran past the security guards.
Abel went rushing into the first elevator available. Janie and Evelyn had no choice but to take another elevator.
Later, Luca brought his bodyguards and rushed into the building as well. The security guards were frightened. They were ready to trigger the alarm, but they saw Benjaminâs bodyguards among them.
They were at ease when one of the bodyguards told them everything was under control.
Abel went up to the 88th floor and rushed into the CEOâs room. Soon, Janie and Evelyn also rushed out.
âSir, you canât go inside.â The secretary outside the CEOâs room attempted to stop Abel.
âMove!â Abel shouted.
The secretary was terrified. Then, only she recognized the man as the CEO of the Ryker family. Abel was here not long ago. Everyone who met him that day remembered him, including the secretary.
Janie ran over and asked, âJoey, did Mr. Benjamin come here today?â
âNo.â Joey shook her head.
âWhat about Ethan? Where is he?â Abel asked.
âMr. Ethan just finished his meeting. Should I inform him of your arrival, Mr. Ryker?â Asked Joey.
âYes.â Abel nodded.
Janie opened the door to the CEOâs room and asked Abel to go inside. Evelyn followed as well.
âWhy are you here?â Abel finally saw her.
âI⦠I am worried about Emmeline, so I want to know what happened to her.â Evelyn said.
Abel sneered and said nothing. He could not do anything, since Evelyn kept saying she was Emmelineâs friend and was worried about her.
Ethan rushed in and tried to shake Abelâs hand when he saw him. He said, âMr. Ryker, my brother-in-
law. Why are you here in person?â
When Abel saw Ethanâs behavior, he figured Ethan had not known what happened to Emmeline yet.
âDid Benjamin come here?â Abel asked.
âDid Benjamin come here?â Abel asked.
Ethan smiled proudly and said, âMr. Benjamin had urgent work, so he asked me to take care of business in Adelmar Group. That is why he is not here.â
âDo you know where he went?â
âI donât know. Mr. Benjamin would never tell me that.â Ethan shook his head.
âWhat did he tell you then?â
âHe has urgent work and asked me to take care of business here.â
Ethan was annoyed by Abelâs questions. âWhatâs wrong, Abel? What happened? You and Benjamin both sounded anxious.â
Abel knew he could not hide it from Ethan, so he asked Janie to close the door. Ethan felt how serious things were when he saw Abelâs face.
âAbel, did something happen to Emma?â
Abel paused and nodded, âBenjamin took Emma away.â
Ethan almost suffocated when he heard that. He said anxiously, âThat girl eloped with Benjamin? Did she elope and abandon her four children?
âMr. Ethan, what were you thinking? Do you think Emma is someone like that? Do you think Benjamin is someone like that?â Janie said.
