Chapter 167 He Is My Gardener

Abel did not intend to interrupt Emmeline and Janie, but his presence drew the ladies' attention nonetheless. Emmeline and Janie turned to look at him.

He was standing by the stairs in his black pants and white shirt which was unbuttoned. He had rolled up his sleeves, exposing his muscular arms. He was tall, dark and handsome, and Janie was instantly attracted.

She had to know who this man was. He was as hot as Benjamin! Janie took a deep breath and asked Emmeline, "Who is this guy, Emma? You seem to know a lot of hot guys!" "What, this guy?" Emmeline paused briefly and said, "He is just my gardener."

That was a smoking hot gardener! Janie was extremely excited. "You have an eye for hot guys, Emma! Where can I even replace such a hot gardener? I would have wanted to date him if I was not already dating our CEO."

Abel raised an eyebrow. Gardener? He could not believe Emmeline introduced him as a gardener. Though it might be better to hide his identity from strangers. Moreover, he had only been back for a short time so not many people knew him yet.

"Ms. Louise," Abel said, "Which types of plants would you like to add to the garden?"

"Leave it to Mateo please," Emmeline replied, "He knows best." Abel nodded, "Sure. How about lunch? Would you like me to make your lunch?"

Emmeline glanced at the clock on the wall. It was almost lunchtime. "You can make lunch together with Daisy, thank you."

She had always made lunch together with Daisy, but today she wanted Abel to make her lunch. Abel nodded and returned upstairs.

Janie was surprised. "Wow, Emma! Did you just order your hot gardener to make your lunch also? I have no idea you have such power over hot men!"

"It's nothing," Emmeline shook her head, "It's just part of his job."

Emmeline tried to divert Janie's attention. "Are you here just to thank me?"

"Of course not!" Janie replied, "I also want to get some advice from you on replaceing a way into Mr. Benjamin's heart."

Emmeline thought for a while and said, "The way to a man's heart is through his stomach. Benjamin lives alone and rarely cooks. Maybe you could bring some home-cooked meals to enjoy with him together. With time, you will grow on him."

"Brilliant idea!" Janie was excited. "I shall make him meals right now. Thanks, you have the most amazing ideas, Emma!"

"You are welcome," Emmeline smiled, "Go now and make some tasty meals. Good luck!"

Janie thanked her again and left, smiling from ear to ear. Sam waited until Janie was gone before peeking out from behind the counter, "Ms. Louise!"

"Why are you helping that woman to win Mr. Benjamin's heart?" Sam looked concerned, "I think Mr. Benjamin would be sad to know this."

Emmeline shrugged and said, "I think Benjamin deserves to be happy, don't you think so? He deserves someone who makes him happy."

"Mr. Benjamin only has eyes for another woman though," Sam mumbled. Emmeline knew Sam was referring to her. "I cannot make him happy. You know it." Sam said nothing else.

At the same time, Abel was busy making lunch with Daisy in the kitchen. While he was busy cooking, his mind wandered.

He thought he could fix his relationship with Emmeline by using the excuse to trim the garden. However, she had been avoiding him the entire morning, and he barely talked with her.

They had only talked about making breakfast and lunch thus far. At this rate, he would not be able to make it up to her by dinnertime.

This was taking too much time. He had to think of something else. He thought about the flowers in the garden, and he was suddenly reminded of the conversation between Benjamin and Emmeline last night.

Benjamin said last night he would buy Emmeline as many flowers as she wanted. He mentioned flowers were her favorite. That was it! Abel had a new idea now.
