Ambush of the Quadruplets
Chapter 1050 A Gift From The Murphy Family

"I'm just kidding," Erin quickly grabbed his arms and rubbed her head on his body, "You don't have to be serious all the time!"

"You said that in front of Liz," Paul replied, "Think about how that would make me look in front of her?"

Erin smiled sheepishly but she did not play along with the banter anymore.

In fact, deep down, she was seething with rage, Paul, you can be as shameless as you can be right now, but let's see how long you can hold this up!

While everyone talked to each other, Erin secretly sent some text messages.

The last message featured the McLaren that Lizbeth drove. Erin included the car plate: xxx788.

Not long after, the dishes were served. Everyone began to dig in.

Abel said to Adrien, "Adrien, it seems that the Nimbus Hotel is getting more recognition under your management. The dishes are all so up-to-date as well."

"I am glad to hear that from your mouth," Adrien replied, "I am always worried that I won't be able to pass the year-end inspection, you know."

"I took a look at the business report and compared it to last year's," Abel said, "There is more than 40% growth, which is the result of your hard work."

"I am just winging it. There is so much to learn," Adrien replied, "No matter the dishes or the services, we need to seek improvements and produce better quality. I feel glad that you guys acknowledge everything."

"You're not doing half-bad," Abel praised him, "I talked to Adam just now. I plan to start a company overseas so that he could showcase his talent in management."

"Adam is the smarter one among us," Adrien agreed, "As long as he could focus on the business, the brand would rise."

"Yeah," Abel nodded, "That's what I think as well."

"Abel," Paul began, "The Ryker Group and the Murphy Group always share a strategic collaboration. Don't forget about us when it comes to pristine opportunities."

"You're being too modest," Abel replied, "The Murphy Group is formidable, especially around Altney. A few of your businesses in Struyria are doing quite well, no?"

"It's not too bad," Paul replied, "Our businesses took a hit when Evelyn came that time, but luckily it's turning a profit nowadays."

"You have to trust your business instinct," Abel said, "You're being too hard on yourself."

"I have to, you know, in front of you," Paul chuckled, "You really have the business chops."

"Thank you for the compliment," Abel smiled faintly.

"We have to thank you for connecting the Wonder Doctor to us as well," Paul added, "My father is really over the moon about it, so he specially prepared a gift for you guys. I hope that you guys would fancy it."

"He's being too generous," Abel said, "I never expect that the Wonder Doctor would decide to show her hands this time."

"She didn't even charge us a penny," Paul gushed about Emmeline, "My father is beyond thankful to her!"

"Mr. Murphy, you're really being too kind!" Emmeline said, "Tell your dad that Abel is only doing what's right. We simply acted as the bridge, so he doesn't need to stand on ceremony."

"But it was really thanks to Abel being able to secure the Wonder Doctor's help," Paul insisted, "Or else, my brother would be no more. That's why, as a token of gratitude, my father insists that you have to accept our gift."

Emmeline turned her gaze to Abel.

Although as the Wonder Doctor, she saved Flynn's life, Paul was thanking Abel in this luncheon since he was the one pulling the strings.

He was giving Abel a gift because he respected Abel.

So, everything had to be according to Abel whether she would accept the gift or not.

Abel sank into silence for a while before saying, "Emma, Mr. Murphy's kindness is really overflowing. In order to let him feel at ease, we should just accept it."

"That's true!" Paul said happily, "Mrs. Ryker, please accept it."

Emmeline took the box and opened it. A ray of light seeped out of the box.

Everyone's attention turned to the strange light, and when Emmeline looked down, she was shocked.

There was a small tower made of ivory in the box. On top of it, there was green emerald-like jewelry embedded on it.

No, that was no ordinary gemstone. It was a bone relic!
