âNo, I need to check the security footage from the Ryker residence to see if there are any trails. I must find the culprit behind Emmaâs assassination!â Abel stood up and said.
âYou still need to eat something. How can you fight them when youâre so exhausted?â said Luca.
Abel nodded. Soon, Quincy was sleeping in Abelâs arms. It gave a little warmth to him. He carried Quincy upstairs into the baby room and put her in her crib. After touching Quincyâs cheeks, Abel left the room without closing the door, so others could hear it if Quincy cried.
Abel returned to his room and removed his suit. It was covered in Emmelineâs blood. He did not want to wash or throw it away. He carried the suit in his arms before folding it and putting it into a bag.
He had a quick hot shower and got dressed.
Kendra was outside the door and said, âMr. Ryker, the soup is ready. Please come downstairs to eat.â
Abel did not know where to put the bag with his blood-stained suit, so he left it on his chair.
Kendra made a bowl of vegetable soup for Abel. There were also some bread and eggs for him.
âYou should eat some as well since you didnât eat,â Abel ordered Luca.
Luca nodded.
Sam made him some food at Nightfall café, but he did not eat much. He was so hungry that his stomach was growling.
âGet the chef to make some food for the bodyguards as well. They must be starving.â Abel said.
âThey have eaten. I ordered them to get some food just now,â said Luca.
âThatâs better.â Abel nodded.
After the meal, Abel felt a lot better. An hour later, he took his bodyguards to the Ryker residence.
There had been two fatal accidents at the party. It made Oscar feel very uncomfortable. Although the Ryker family suppressed the media reports, it still caused an uproar among the wealthy families in Struyria. It was an embarrassment for the Ryker family. Perhaps there would not be anyone who would come to their parties anymore in the future. People would feel worried even if they were forced to attend the party.
Fabian informed Oscar, who was just about to sleep, about Abelâs arrival.
Oscar got up and went downstairs after wearing a jacket.
âGrandad.â Abel greeted Oscar. Right now, even Oscar looked suspicious to Abel since Oscar was the one who used a diversion and tried to get rid of Emmeline previously. Adam was another person whom Abel was suspicious of as well.
âHow is Emmeline doing?â Oscar did not know what happened yet. Adrien and Lizbeth came here to accompany him without telling him what happened.
âSheâs not doing well.â Abel said coldly as he looked at Oscar with hatred. He did not want to explain to Oscar.
âGosh! Why would something like that happen?â Oscar sighed and frowned.
Looking at Oscarâs reaction, Abel thought he was probably not the culprit because his reaction seemed genuine.
âShe must be saved! Send her to another country, if they canât treat her here. Money is not a problem! I canât allow my grandchildren to lose their mother since young!â Oscar said.
âIâm doing that indeed. Emma was already being treated in another country.â Said Abel.
âGood. Find the best doctor to treat her.â Said Oscar.
âOf course.â Abel nodded.
âWhy are you here then? You should be by Emmelineâs side.â Asked Oscar.
âIâm here to check the security cameras to see if somethingâs wrong,â Abel said.
