"I need to get used to it," Emmeline said as she pouted.

"Then I need to reward you. Say, what do you want? I'll get it for you." Abel kissed her lips.

"I want..."

Emmeline's bright eyes blinked a few times before she said, "Once my body is recovered, I want you!"

Abel froze for a moment, feeling excited in his heart. However, he soon calmed down and said, "That'll be easy to achieve, but not with your current situation, so say something else you want."

"I only want you. Nothing else!" Emmeline leaned on his back and said cutely.

"Why don't we do it now?" Abel knew she was teasing him deliberately, but he immediately took off his apron. "This is easy, so I'll satisfy you!"

"No! I'm just kidding!" Emmeline ran away while laughing.

"I knew you were just acting cute!" Abel pinched her little nose and continued, "It doesn't count if you say you want me. I'm yours either way, so say something else. Otherwise, won't you be wasting your chance?"

"Then I'll say it when I think of something. Take it as you owe me something!" Emmeline said mischievously.

"Alright, I'll take note! Go to the dining room and wait for me to finish cooking. Then, we can eat together." Abel kissed her lips lightly.

"I don't want to. I want to accompany you here!" Emmeline leaned on his back again.

"I need to get used to it," Emmeline said as she pouted.

Abel held the spoon to stir the oatmeal with one hand while he used his other hand to pat her hand. "Who was the one who made fun of me for being cheesy last night? There's someone who's cheesier than me here."

"What can I do? I can't ever get tired of you, Hubby!" Emmeline pouted and said.

"Then you can continue being cheesy for our whole life. I won't get tired of it," Abel replied.

Their breakfast was ready. Then, Emmeline called Sam and Luca, who were in the cafe on the first floor.

The four of them had their meal together. Sam and Luca looked much closer now. The way they spoke to each other was also more natural and no longer reserved. It seemed like there was some development between them.

Ring, ring! Emmeline's phone rang. She picked it up and saw that it was Janie who called. She remembered that Janie sent Benjamin back home when he had drunk too much last night, so she quickly answered the call.

"Morning, Janie."

"Morning, Emma." Janie's voice sounded a little unnatural.

After leaving Glenbrook, Janie returned to her apartment, so she did not know how Benjamin was now. She was not in the mood to go to work.

She had promised to accompany Emmeline to order a wedding dress last night, and she had to keep her word. She then washed up and changed before calling Emmeline.

"Janie, I just wanted to ask you. Was Benjamin alright last night?" Emmeline asked.

Janie replied after some hesitance, "He's fine."

"That's great. Benjamin drank quite a lot last night, so I was worried." Emmeline let out a breath of relief.

"Aren't you afraid that Mr. Abel would get jealous if you worry about Benjamin?" Janie laughed, but she was also testing Emmeline.

"Abel isn't that petty. He's right beside me now," Emmeline replied.

"You really make people envious, Emma. You have a good husband like Mr. Abel and a loyal friend like Benjamin," said Janie.

"You need to hurry up with Janie. He's pretty nice," Emmeline said.

"Do you support me and Benjamin being together?"

"Nonsense, of course, I'll support you. You're the only girl by Benjamin's side, so you must seize the chance."

Seize the chance? Does last night count?

Janie teared up, feeling her heart ache a little. Benjamin did not have other women around him, and she suddenly became his woman, was she considered lucky? "Thanks for your encouragement, Emma. I'll try my best." Janie felt better now.

"Mmmh, good luck!" Emmeline smiled.

"Emma, I've made an appointment with a wedding dress designer for you. Is the time alright with you?" Janie asked.
