Chapter 1480 Considering Me As Him
Chapter 1480 Considering Me As Him
The next morning, after adjusting the car navigation system and starting her car, Emmeline set off for Sandwell alone.
To her surprise, she arrived in the evening around 7 p.m., completing a journey of over 559 miles.
She felt a great sense of accomplishment. It was her first time driving alone on such a long trip after obtaining her driver’s license.
When she suddenly appeared in front of Paul, he almost jumped up from behind the tea counter.
“Emma!” he called out as he looked behind her. “Why did you suddenly come here?”
“I wanted to surprise you. Emmeline smiled. “No need to look at my back. It’s just me.”
“What about Abel?” Paul asked. “Why are you alone?”
“Abel doesn’t know I’m here. Emmeline chuckled and added, “I drove here by myself”
“What a surprise!” Paul exclaimed, almost dropping his eyes. “You came all this way; it’s more like a shock.”
“But I’m fine, aren’t Emmeline laughed. “Don’t worry, Paul.”
Paul wiped the sweat off his forehead as he said, “As long as you’re safe. Let me take you to dinner first.
The two of them went to a small restaurant. He ordered Emmeline’s favorite vegetarian pasta for her.
Paul had already eaten his dinner. While Emmeline was enjoying her meal, he called Abel,
“What?!” Abel gasped as he stood up from the sofa. “She drove to Sandwell by herself?”
“Yes, and she’s having a meal with me now,” Paul replied. “I just wanted to ask you about the situation.”
“I really don’t know,” Abel said. “She’s incredibly bold. But this doesn’t make sense. What about Luca? I assigned him as her chauffeur. Where did he go?”
Abel hung up with Paul and called Luca,
Luca was still at the hospital taking care of his mother. When he heard that Emmeline had driven to Sandwell by herself, he was also shocked.
After ending the call with Luca, Abel called Paul again.
“Paul, could you please keep an eye on her? She might have the courage to drive there, but she might not be able to find her way back. If anything happens, I don’t think I can bear it.”
“What’s the plan?” Paul asked. “Do you want to come here, or should I send a chauffeur for her?”
“I’ll come over, Abel replied. “Seeing her will put my mind at ease.”
“Alright,” Paul said. “I’ll keep an eye on her for now. Hurry up and come over.”
“I’m booking train tickets now,” Abel said. “I’m not sure when I’ll arrive. Just make sure you keep an eye on her; don’t let her return alone.”
The next day, Emmeline packed her backpack and went to the Clothing Wholesale Market to check the goods.
As the morning passed, she hadn’t even covered half of the market.
At lunchtime, she called Paul to inform him that she wouldn’t be going back for lunch. In this case, she didn’t need to waste time in the afternoon.
Paul gave her a few safety reminders. He had no choice but to go along with her. After all, she couldn’t just leave without her Ford Focus, which was now with him.
After a quick lunch, Emmeline continued to walk along the streets of the wholesale market.
She had successfully ordered her selections for women’s clothing. Now, she needed to inspect several second–tier and third–tier men’s clothing brands.
At 5 p.m., the streets were still crowded with people. Each storefront was bustling.
Emmeline walked while observing the surroundings.
Suddenly, she bumped into a solid chest.
Feeling startled, she quickly jumped back and said, “I’m sorry.”
The person in front of her didn’t move or speak. He looked down at her from a higher vantage point.
Emmeline looked up at his black trousers and a black T–shirt.
After a few moments of confusion and uncertainty, she smiled, showing her small tiger teeth.
“You look like someone I know,” she said while tilting her head.
The person in front of her asked, “Who?”
She replied, “Abel.”
Abel lowered his head to look into her eyes. Then, he said in a deep, gentle voice, “Then can you consider me as him?”
Emmeline threw herself into his arms and held onto his neck. “Abel, you’re so annoying!” she murmured.
It had been nearly a month, and her soft body was finally back in his embrace. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Abel held her tightly. While caressing her head, he said, “Silly girl, why did you drive all this. way by yourself? You scared me half to death. Are you determined to never give up?”
“I also wanted to take a chance, Emmeline said softly. “I wanted to see if I could win.”
“Who are you gambling with?” Abel asked in confusion. “What are you gambling on?”
