Chapter 679 Darell Wants To Extort Money From Others Again

"If you really think I'm your matchmaker, that is my honor."

Kendra giggled, "It's really the honor of my life to link you two."

"We are friends and family simultaneously," Emmeline said, "You shouldn't stand on ceremony."

"Thank you," Kendra's Voice was cracking, "If I never met you and Mr. Abel, our life would be such a difficult ordeal."

"It's the power of fate at work," Emmeline said, "If you didn't recognize that Timothy is actually my son, Abel and I would never reunite."

"It's really the power of fate," Kendra agreed.

Quincy began to cry as they talked on the phone, indicating that he had woken up.

"Ms. Emmeline, I need to put Quincy back to sleep now. Talk to you later," Kendra informed.

"Alright," Emmeline replied, "Look after your child well. I will be hanging up now."

After they ended their call, Emmeline went to fetch her pajamas and when she was about to enter the bathroom, her phone rang again.

This time, it was an unknown number.

Emmeline frowned. Somehow, she had a feeling that this was Janie. She quickly picked up her phone and walked to a more secluded area in the mansion. Then, she answered the call.

A male voice came, "Hello, is this Ms. Louise?"

"...I am. Who are you?"

"I am Janie's cousin. We met before."

"I see," Emmeline remembered him. They did bump into each other once before.

This Darell guy was stubbornly calling her out at the CEO's office of the Adelmar Group.

At that time, she even slapped him hard.

"Do you have any business with me?" Emmeline thought that Darell wanted to extort money from her again.

"I want to tell you something," Darell began, "My cousin, Janie, has returned."

"What?" Emmeline was pleasantly surprised, "Really? Did Janie come back to her hometown?"

"That's right," Darell continued, "However, she wants to have an abortion, and she is at the hospital now. We all thought that it was such a waste. After all, the baby in the belly belongs to the CEO of the Adelmar Group. It would be good for everyone to give birth to the baby."

Emmeline did not know what to say.

What Darell said was interesting.

They wanted Janie to give birth to the child because it supposedly belonged to the CEO of the Adelmar Group. It would be a great advantage for them in the future. However, what if this turned out to be false? They would not care about Janie's life at all!

"We are trying to persuade Janie to change her mind, but to no avail, so we thought that it is best to seek your help. After all, according to Janie, you are her best friend" "Please watch after Janie carefully. No matter whose baby is, she can't abort it!"

Emmeline said frantically, "Most importantly, that's her own baby!"

"You are right. That's what we said," Darell agreed, "However, it's useless. Ms. Louise, can you come over for a little bit? To make Janie change her mind about leaving the hospital. Or else, if she follows the procedure, they are going to have the abortion tomorrow."

Emmeline had promised Abel to accompany him to Hudrein. Furthermore, the secretary had already booked her flight ticket.

However, about Janie...

It was rare to hear from Janie. She did not want to let go of this chance again.

No matter what, Janie could not just get rid of the baby in her belly. It was still a living, breathing, human life!

And it was Benjamin's baby as well!

"Where are you now?" Emmeline asked, "Tell me your location. Benjamin and I will go visit you guys tomorrow."

"Thank you so much for taking up this tall order," Darell replied, "But Mr. Benjamin doesn't need to come tomorrow. I'm calling you now without Janie's knowledge too, if she suddenly sees Mr. Benjamin tomorrow, don't you think that she would have a heart attack? Her condition would worsen considerably."

"Then, what do you want?" Emmeline frowned.

Itwastruethat Janie was trying to avoid Benjamin. If they did not resolve their misunderstanding, Benjamin's appearance would only do more harm than good.

"It's best that you come alone to persuade her so that she would give up on her idea of getting the abortion. Ask her to come back with you. That was the best scenario. You can take a horse to water, but you can't make it drink."

"Alright, then," Emmeline nodded, "Take care of Janie first. I won't let her down. I will see her tomorrow."

"Alright, that's great," Darell said, "Thank you so much, Ms. Louise." After disclosing Janie's location, he hung up.

Abel emerged from the bathroom just after she had ended the call...
