The Quadruplets Are Mine? Chapter 44

Color washed off Alana’s face.

Abel did sleep with her. Why was he not admitting to that fact?

“A-Abel, I don’t get what you’re saying.”

“I said I never touched you.” Abel narrowed his eyes and smirked.

“No… Abel.”

Alana broke out in cold sweat. Surely, Abel did not want to own up to it in Emmeline’s presenee.

“I know you don’t like to be put in the spot. I don’t blame you since we’re heading toward a shotgun wedding. Your mother said so.”

“You’re stubborn, aren’t you?” Abel’s eyes were chilly. “How many times does it take for you to understand

“Can’t you be a man?” Adrien sneered.

“Abel, we were together the other night. Why won’t you admit to it? Is it because of Emmeline?” Alana cried.

It gave the onlookers something to talk about. They whispered among themselves, unable to believe the heir of Ryker Group was an

irresponsible sc*mbag!

Tension ran along Abel’s facial line. Locking his jaw, he gnashed his teeth in rage.

Oh, if only he could have his hands around Alana’s neck. Alas, this was not the time or place.

There was no way he could convince everybody otherwise at this point. People would only take his further defense as a denial.

Besides, the matter would put the Ryker Group in a negative light.

He had to let it go for now.

Abel could only prove his innocence when Alana gave birth to the child.

“Abel, did I do something wrong? Shouldn’t I have come here?” Alana
