The Quadruplets Are Mine? Chapter 172

“Okay? What is it? Well, look at you, acting all serious.” Emmeline looked at Benjamin.

Benjamin replied, “It’s about Janie. Please go easy and spare me.”

“Janie is a good kid. She’s pretty and outspoken. She’s honest with her feelings.”

“She’s not for me.”

“Um… I’ll think about it.” Emmeline gave a nod.

Benjamin pulled the glass door and walked out.

Sitting in his ride, Benjamin dialed Abel’s number.

“Mr. Ryker.”

“Mr. York, has Wonder Dogtor made an appearance?” Abel asked.

“I’m sorry, but not yet,” Benjamin answered.

“But time is not on my side anymore.”

Benjamin furrowed his brows. What are you trying to say, Abel?

You had flowers delivered to Emmeline, and now you can’t wait for Alana to get better so you can marry her.

Abel, am I wrong about you?

“My hands are tied, Mr. Ryker. I can’t help you.”

Abel’s heart dropped. There was

nothing more he could say.

Benjamin hung up the call, feeling bad for Emmeline.

Ms. Louise, can’t you see the person Abel is?

He’s a player. He’s trying to have his cake and eat it too.

Abel was the last one to clock out of the office.

He returned to Ryker Mansion.

“Abel?”

Surprised by her son’s sudden return, Rosaline was over the moon.

“I’ll get the chef to make your favorite dinner.”

“Sure.” Abel nodded his head and pulled Rosaline to sit.

“Mom, I need a moment with you.”

“What’s on your mind? Don’t be a stranger to your mom.” Rosaline patted her son’s hand.

Abel replied, “Grandad wants a date for my engagement to Alana.”

Rosaline fell silent and frowned. “Abel, have you made up your mind on the matter?”
