NovelEnglishChapter 80 I’ll Pick You Up Tonight
"Of course!" Hesperus smiled, and dimples appeared on his face. "I'll treat you as my real granny. I'm
sure Sun and Moon will do the same!"
"Mm." Rosaline hugged Hesperus tightly. "You'll always be my dear grandson!"
Alana's expression gradually sank as she witnessed the scene. Waves of jealousy and resentment
assaulted her.
Hah! Looks like blood is thicker than water. Look at the grandmother and the father. What can possibly
break those invisible ties apart?
Alana glared at Emmeline resentfully.
Why can't I ever get rid of that woman?
While Alana was grumbling, the doctor came into the room to conduct a routine check-up, and
everyone else had to leave.
"Isn't it getting late, Abel? Shouldn't you be at work?" Rosaline asked.
"I'll go there later," Abel replied. "I'm still worried about Star."
"You don't have to worry about my son, Mr. Ryker. I shouldn't stop you from your work," Emmeline said.
"You look tired. Why don't you go home and rest, and I'll stay here to take care of Star?" Abel looked at
Emmeline with concern.
Emmeline shook her head. "Don't worry. I'll be okay."

Alana turned around and walked toward the elevator with Rosaline.
"You should go too," Emmeline said to Abel. "Company matters are more important."

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter they left, a bodyguard came under Abel's orders to deliver dinner from Nimbus Hotel. Emmeline
and Hesperus ate a lot that evening.
"Looks like Abel Ryker is very dependable," Hesperus said. "According to my observations, Adrien
Ryker is nowhere near qualified."
Emmeline sighed. "Don't mention his name."
"But why isn't Abel Ryker our Daddy?" Hesperus said precociously.
I wish he's your father too, but things didn't turn out this way.
"Mommy, could you adults be mistaken?" Hesperus said.
"That's impossible. I've seen the results myself. Your father is indeed Adrien Ryker."
"What a pity." Hesperus pouted.
Emmeline could not help but chuckle at his worried face.
"Don't worry. It doesn't matter who your real daddy is, I'll always be here with all of you. Neither of them
can claim you for themselves!"
"I'm glad to hear that." Hesperus nodded. "I'm sure Helios and Endymion will be glad too."
Hesperus' condition stabilized later that night, but his body temperature remained high.
Emmeline was worried the bacteria might get into his blood, but fortunately, Adrien was available for a
transfusion.
Even though Adrien might be a playboy, he was nonetheless dependable when his son needed him the
most.
At the end of visiting hours, Emmeline kissed Hesperus and said goodbye to him.
"I'll be going home. Will you be okay being alone in the hospital?"
