Chapter 1346 Each Other's First Love

"I descended from the car, more accurately," Abel said with a smile, ruffling her hair.

It was then Emmeline saw the car Abel parked on the roadside. It was an old Santana.

"What are you doing, walking on the street alone?" Abel wondered. "I was just about to go to your place to look for you."

Emmeline pouted. "Well, someone's being set up on a blind date at home, so I came out."

"Who is it?" Abel asked in surprise. "Has your sister, Hannah, returned?"

"No, it's me."

Abel was taken aback for a second. "Right. You're at the right age to replace a boyfriend now."

Emmeline could clearly see that his expression darkened, and she knew what he was thinking. They had an unspoken understanding, and to be precise, they were each other's first love.

It was during the summer vacation when Emmeline graduated from junior high school at the age of fourteen. For the first time, she visited her elderly grandmother's home hundreds of miles away. One evening, Emmeline hadn't returned home yet. She was watching ducks swim from the river to the beach, flapping their feathers and then lining up to return home.

Just as she was happily watching, a clear voice came from behind. "Emma, Grandma is calling you to come, home."

Emmeline turned around in surprise. Who else here would know her name?

Then, she saw a young man standing behind her. He was dressed in blue pants and a white shirt, with a handsome and tall figure, and his eyes were deep and bright like stars.

Emmeline was a bit dazed. This guy is an absolute hunk! Also, he looks familiar for some strange reason. Do we know each other from another lifetime?

Abel reached out his hand, indicating that he wanted to help Emmeline up from the stone by the riverbank.

Emmeline was standing barefoot, and her delicate feet were still in the river. She subconsciously reached out her hand and placed her small hand in Abel's large palm. However, her feet slipped, pulling Abel down with her, and the two of them fell into the river together.

Emmeline hadn't learned to swim at the time, so her first instinct was to scream. She accidentally swallowed a mouthful of river water and began to choke. Panicked, she wrapped her arms around Abel's

neck

After the scare, Emineline burst into tears.

Abel held her in his arms and comforted her gently, "It's okay. You're okay now."

Emmeline pouted in grievance. "Who are you? You almost killed me!"

A chuckle escaped Abel as he defended himself. "You were the one who pulled me down. I haven't blamed you for that!"

Emmeline felt both embarrassed and angry. She raised her hand as if to hit him, but then she realized that she was still sitting in his lap, and one of her wrists was tightly wrapped around his neck. Emmeline instantly blushed with embarrassment. She hurriedly tried to stand up, but her feet slipped again, and she stumbled. So, she ended up sitting back in his lap, tightly hugging Abel's neck. Abel couldn't help but laugh at her antics. He lowered his head and helped her put on her shoes. "Stop fooling around. Grandma is getting anxious.”

Suddenly, a strange feeling washed over Emmeline. Why does this guy feel so familiar?

From her grandmother, Emmeline learned that Abel was actually the third son of her eldest uncle. Her uncle had lost his parents at a young age and was adopted by her grandmother while retaining his family name. Her uncle had passed away several years ago, and Emmeline had never met him. As for Abel, the so-called elder brother, she couldn't quite understand what that concept represented.

All Emmeline knew was that when her eldest uncle passed away, Abel was only twelve years old. His mother didn't love him. In fact, she despised him. She had handed twelve-year-old Abel over to another family just like that.

Abel had lived with another family for over four months. In the presence of his two step-sisters' disdainful looks, he remained silent, only going to school and working quietly.

It wasn't until he accidentally overheard that he had been renamed Abel Langston that he realized his mother had abandoned him.

Abel escaped overnight and returned to his grandmother's house.

At the age of nineteen, following her father, Maxwell Louise's arrangement, Abel became a sales representative for the state-owned parts factory in Altney. Seven years passed by in the blink of an eye, and he had risen from a sales representative to the head of the sales department.

The

company provided him with a two-bedroom apartment, and he had bought a Santana car. His career was on the rise. However, the state-owned system was gradually declining under the impact of private enterprises. Some of the companies under the Bureau of Commerce were gradually transforming into individually contracted entities, and Abel's once thriving career faced challenges. Feeling frustrated, he drove to replace Emmeline.

"Emma," Abel asked, "what would you like to eat? Shall I take you out for dinner?"
