“Yes, she won. Think about it,” Benjamin said.
Emmeline pondered for a moment before sighing. “It doesn’t matter who wins. I’m relieved that she survived!”
“Yeah,” Benjamin said. “Even if you lose Abel, you still have…”
“Mm?” Emmeline shot him a stern glare.
Benjamin whistled and swallowed the “me” that was on the tip of his tongue.
At the hospital, Abel stood in front of Alana’s bed.
“Abel…” Alana moaned softly. “Don’t leave me… I’m scared…”
Oscar had just left the room, and
Abel was feeling exhausted.
His grandfather had told him earlier that Alana was his savior, and he had a debt of gratitude to pay.
Abel wished the bullet had killed him instead.
He would rather die than fall into Alana’s trap, but he could not turn back time to stop it from happening.
“I’m here, Alana. How are you feeling?” Abel said with some difficulty.
Alana slowly opened her eyes and tried to focus on Abel next to him.
She stared at him for the next two minutes.
He looked haggard, and there was some stubble on his chin.
Has he been staying by my side?
Hahaha, I can’t believe 1 won!
This man is out of tricks now!
Alana began to cry. “I was so scared, Abel. I thought I wouldn’t wake up anymore, and I’ll lose you forever. I thought I was dead…”
“I won’t let you die,” Abel said. “With the entire Ryker’s hospital at my disposal, you can’t possibly die.”
“But… I’d rather die…”
Abel frowned. “What do you mean?” Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
“I lost our baby trying to save you. There’s no more meaning to my life. Boo hoo hoo…”
Abel was speechless. What’s wrong with you? Are you still trying to hold
me hostage with the baby?
“I was so happy to bear a child for you once more, but why didn’t you like it? You even… You even announced publicly that you never touched me. How would I become pregnant if you hadn’t touched me? You made me sad. I know you said that not to make Emmeline sad, but I’m so sad. I can’t believe you were so irresponsible…”
Abel frowned even harder.
Alana still insists that the child was mine. She can’t be so stupid to pin that on me when she knows I didn’t touch her… There must be some flaw in my thinking.
“I know I shouldn’t have drugged you, but your mother kept urging me to give birth to another child for you. She wants to have more
grandchildren than Julianna, so what else could I do? That was the only way I could think of…”
But you don’t know I got Cristopher to deliver me a tranquilizer!
I never touched you!
Wait a second…
Abel suddenly remembered that he was in his study when Cristopher was supposed to deliver the tranquilizer to him, but Cristopher went to the bedroom instead. Alana was passed out on the bed naked…
Cristopher Reid! He must be the missing link!
Don’t tell me he took the opportunity…
Murderous intent appeared in Abel’s eyes.
He abruptly stood up and walked out of the room.
As soon as the door slammed, Alana smirked. “I’ll be waiting for your good news, Abel!”
Luca was shocked to see Abel suddenly come out of the room. He thought Alana did not make it.
Abel gritted his teeth and said, “Get me Cristopher Reid of the biology department!”
Luca was confused. Cristopher Reid? What does anything have to do with him?
He had to follow orders anyway. In any case, it was not too much trouble because they were all at the hospital.
Luca and the bodyguard rushed to the biology department.
