The Quadruplets Are Mine?

Chapter 179

Emmeline was seconds from

hitting her head on the ground and cracking her skull open.

“Oh, no!” Closing her eyes,

Emmeline let out a scream of despair.

Nevertheless, a pair of strong arms caught her fall, stopping her from plunging to the cold, hard floor.

Someone caught her in the nick of time!

e bearer of the arms staggered backward before repositioning their balance/

“Ah! Ah!”

Clinging to her lifesaver’s neck, Emmeline curled up in the

person’s embrace. She could not bring herself to lift her head.

“You’re okay, girl.”

A deep and husky voice lingered in her ear.

The voice…

Emmeline abruptly lifted her chin and met the gaze of…

Abel!

She looked up with widened eyes as she stared blankly at the man.

‘A…bel?” NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

“That’s me. Are you scared silly, girl?”

Abel looked tenderly at Emmeline

with a smile, affectionate and doting.

“What are you doing here?”

Emmeline finally got a grip on

herself.

“Thank goodness I was here. Otherwise, it will be like Humpty Dumpty has a great fall, and you’ll lose your front teeth.” Abel curled his lips.

“You’re Humpty Dumpty!”

Emmeline felt a flush creeping up her cheeks.

Abel was amused. “Is this the

attitude you give to your

lifesaver?”

Hanging her head low in

embarrassment, Emmeline

Ruzzled in his embrace.

God knew she nearly wet her pants.

She felt safe the moment she realized she was in Abel’s arms.

However, Emmeline was too stubborn to admit to it.

Abel gently put her down on her feet before tucking her hair behind her ear.

“Didn’t I tell you that it’s a dangerous job? You wouldn’t

listen. Are you going to take my advice now?”

“I don’t have a choice. I need

money.” Emmeline hit him with her sparkling eyes.

“I can give you money, but you refuse to accept it.’

Emmeline had no words. Why should I take money from you? It’s not like ydon’t have money.

“Emma, are you okay? You scared me to death.” Simon drew close.

“I’m fine.” Emmeline shuffled her hair, soothing herself to loosen the tensed nerves.

“Mr. Ryker here saved me.”

Simon immediately expressed his g tude, “I’m surprised to see you here, Mr. Ryker. Thank you for saving Emma. We avoided a big accident thanks to you.”

“I was just passing by. Ms. Louise should get some time off. I doubt

she’s in a state to continue the shoot,” Abel said.

“I’m going to call it a day. We all need a break.” Simon broke out in a cold sweat.

How was he supposed to explain to Benjamin if anything were to happen to Emmeline?

Benjamin made it clear that he had to cease filming if Emmeline were to meet with any mishap.

God knew who on earth was Ms. Louise to have friends in high places.

She rubbed shoulders with Benjamin, Adrien, and Abel.

Abel managed the Ryker Group, a mover and shaker in the business

world.

Simon raised his hand to wipe away the sweat, feeling relieved after what had happened.

“I’ll take you home.” Abel put his arm around Emmeline’s shoulders.

Following the body contact, he could feel Emmeline shaking.

“I can walk.” Emmeline’s bike was parked outside.

“But you forget that I haven’t checked on Mateo’s landscaping. How am I supposed to pay him?” Abel had come up with a plan.

“Huh?” Emmeline looked at him, finding his excuse weak but with

reason.

She nodded her head. “Alright. I won’t take my bike. I can’t feel my legs.”

That was more like it.

Abel smiled.

Still, he made no comment.

Out of the filming studio, the pair got into Abel’s Rolls Royce.

It was mostly quiet throughout the journey.

However, the mood was calm.

Abel’s timely presence not only saved Emmeline’s life but also brought them closer together.

Since there was traffic up ahead, Abel slowed the car down.

He reached out and held Emmeline’s cold hand.

Startled, Emmeline tried to pull

away.

Abel clutched tightly to her hand.

“Ow! You’re hurting me.” Emmeline cried in pain.

Adrian suddenly released her.

His accidental use of force broke the spell of romance.
