"I haven't accompanied anyone like this except Emma. I'm sorry." Abel said.

"Mr. Abel!"

Abel had already left.

Evelyn felt like crying instantly.

It was not easy to enter The Precipice and stayed with Abel under the same roof. Why did she think of getting closer to him? Right now, she is left alone by Abel.

The Security Guard opened the gate for Abel when he returned to The Precipice. Two bodyguards on duty greeted him and hurriedly opened the driver's seat door. "You're back, Mr. Abel."

"Hmm." Abel nodded and tossed the car keys to the bodyguard.

These two bodyguards wanted to follow Abel to the hospital but were refused by Abel.

They could only stay at the Villa.

It's a good thing that Abel came back soon, otherwise they would have been scolded harshly by Luca.

Abel got to his bedroom and drank warm water with a supplement.

His stomach was better now but he didn't feel like sleeping anymore.

He sat in the dark and smoked cigarettes.

When dawn came, Kendra got up early.

She saw that the door of the guest room was open, but Evelyn was not there.

She thought Eveylyn went to the living room downstairs, but there was no one in the living room either.

Kendra came upstairs again, only to see that the door to Abel's bedroom was partially closed.

"Mr. Abel?" Kendra called tentatively while thinking if Evelyn was in the room or not. The thoughts made her angry and she pushed the door open.

Smoke was in her face and she choked.

There was no sound in the room and the bed was empty.

Kendra stepped in and saw Abel was asleep on the sofa. A dozen cigarette butts were in the ashtray.

She hurriedly opened the window to ventilate and covered Abel with a quilt.

"Emma..." Abel murmured, with tears in the corners of his eyes, "Where are you?"

Kendra felt heartbroken too.

"Emma, don't leave me..."

Kendra took the tissue from the coffee table to wipe Abel's tears. It woke him up.

"Why are you here?" Abel sat up at once, "Who let you in?"

"Mr. Abel, please don't misunderstand. The door was open and the whole room was filled with smoke. I came in to open the window to ventilate and to put a blanket on you. Abel noticed the quilt on him and said, "I'm fine. You can leave now."

"Ms. Evelyn has disappeared. Have you seen her, Mr. Abel?" Kendra asked.

"She left. Don't mind her."

Kendra remembered that last night Abel had told Evelyn to leave at dawn. She did leave.

Kendra was relieved. As a woman, she could see what Evelyn wanted even though Emmeline was her friend.

Kendra felt angry just thinking about it. No one except Emmeline can get close to Mr. Abel!

"Mr. Abel, go to bed and take a nap. I'll cook you a bowl of chicken soup.”

"It's fine. I can't sleep anyway." Abel got up from the sofa.

"Wash up first and I'll cook the chicken soup."

"Mm." Abel nodded.

"Waah! Waah!" The sound of Quincy crying came from the baby's room.

Kendra panicked for a moment.

She was about to go to the kitchen to cook chicken soup for Abel and Quincy woke up at the same time.

"Bring Quincy to me. I'll watch over him," said Abel.

"Quincy might be hungry and wants to drink milk," Kendra said.

"Alright, I can feed him," Abel said.

"Then I'll go carry Quincy." Kendra went to the baby's room hurriedly.
