Ambush of the Quadruplets

Chapter 1433 What Crime Has She Committed?

Abel was James‘ savior. Abel had pulled him from the looming shadows across the street.

James Hudson, a former mercenary who had narrowly escaped an assassination attempt five years

prior, found sanctuary in Centennial. It was Abel who, by a chance encounter, had saved his life,

leading James to adopt a low–key existence as a merchant specializing in audio and video products.

Beneath this seemingly ordinary facade, he discreetly maintained his involvement in the black market

arms trade through his previous connections.

Abel and James seldom crossed paths. Their interactions were limited. However, the current

predicament involving Emma left Abel grappling for a solution.

“Are you sure you want to go through with this?” James inquired.

“I can’t simply stand by and watch the person I love suffer most, Abel replied. I have no other choice.”

“In light of you saving my life,” James assured. “I won’t accept a single cent from 200,000. I pledge to

manage it discreetly and without a trace.”

“Agreed!” Abel nodded. “200,000, I’ll deliver it to you later.”

After their discussion, Abel said his goodbyes and exited James‘ shop.

James did not see him off.

As Abel approached his car, he noticed a familiar figure passing by. Curious, he turned around and

caught sight of a wolf tattoo on the person’s left arm.

At that moment, Abel’s memory raced–a person of average build, strong, and with a wolf tattoo on the

left arm–it could only be Diesel.

The same Diesel had once abducted Emmeline and faced a severe beating from Abel and Benjamin. Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

Abel couldn’t help but wonder why Diesel was here. Did he also have a connection to James?

Deciding to postpone getting into his car, Abel purchased a bottle of mineral water from a nearby shop.

As he took a sip, he discreetly used the bottle to partially obscure his face while watching Diesel enter

James‘ audio and video store.

After discussing her employee training matters with Vernon, Emmeline hailed a cab and headed

straight. to the driving school to complete her registration.

Returning home around live or six in the evening, she noticed Abel had thoughtfully prepared dinner. It

consisted of several vegetarian dishes and the fragrant oatmeal that he knew she would enjoy.

Putting on an apron, he embraced her, playfully spun her around, then gently placed her back on the

ground and affectionately ruffled her hair. “You’ve had a busy day, babe. Let’s savor this meal while it’s

still

She looked into his eyes and suddenly sensed that his smile concealed something. She inquired, “You

appear to have something on your mind. Is there something you’re not telling me?”

Chuckling, Abel replied, “Where did you get that idea? Production is going smoothly, orders are pouring

in, and I couldn’t be happier.”

“Is that so Emmeline felt reassured, believing his explanation was more than sufficient.

His thoughts, though, were centered on a single focus. Why worry about anything else? Spending two

hundred thousand to deal with Albus ensures Aunt Kimberly’s peace of mind, and Emma will forever be

my cherished treasure. No one can ever take her away.

She inquired. “When are you planning to visit Sandwell? I need to collect the goods.”

He assisted her in pulling out a chair and replied, “Let’s review the schedule for next week. I need to

make a stop at your school first.”

Glancing at the calendar, Emmeline realized ten days remained until school resumed. It dawned on her

that Abel would likely handle something on her behalf. A shadow crossed her mind, and she sighed,

“It’s been two months since Ms. Ysabel went missing, and there’s been no word.

He set the utensil on the table and said. If someone’s been missing for two months, the chances of

them still being alive are next to none.

She shivered and added. “I hope to see her once school starts. What crime has she committed that she

must die“”

While Emmeline was referring to Ysabel, it sounded to Abel like she was talking about Albus. His hand

holding the fork quivered slightly.

The following day, Luca drove Emmeline to RetroWave Advertisements.

Janie and Tony had scheduled their wedding for the coming month.

Tony expressed his gratitude, saying, “Thanks to Abel for letting us use the apartment. I wouldn’t have

known how to arrange everything.”

Emmeline smiled and said, “The company has provided us with a dormitory. Abel spends his nights in

the workshop, overseeing operations.”

“At this rate, Ryker Group is on its way to becoming a successful private enterprise.”

She acknowledged, “The pressure is indeed high. We can’t afford to let up regarding orders, quality,

and safety. Abel frequently sacrifices sleep to ensure everything runs smoothly.”

“Abel wields strong control, Tony reassured. “You can trust him!

“He’s assertive and determined. She chuckled. “I’ll keep my distance from him.”

“That’s no good, Tony quipped. If you’re not around, Abel predicts endless rainy days!”

Emmeline blushed at his commment.

The phone rang, and Sam was calling.

Emmeline quickly picked up. “Sam?”

“Emma, are you available?” Sam’s tone was uncertain.

“What’s the matter? Emmeline inquired.

“Well… it’s about… Albus, he wants to speak with you.”

Emmeline was left speechless and puzzled, “Albus?”
