Chapter 162 I Want To Be Alone
“Mr. Benjamin will send you,” Emmeline replied, “I don’t think it’s safe for you to ride with me.”
Janie looked at Benjamin eagerly. He shrugged and said, “Sure, I will send you home.”
Abel did not leave immediately after stepping out of the hotel. Instead, he stayed in his Rolls-Royce
Phantom, staring at the entrance of the hotel.
He regretted what happened just now. How could he say such things to Emmeline? It should not bother
him so much that Benjamin was taking her out on a date. She was an attractive woman, and it was no
surprise Benjamin would fall for her and want to pursue her.
Abel should not have humiliated her because of that. He wished he could take back what he had said
earlier.
The car was parked beside the road opposite the entrance of the hotel, and Luca who was sitting in the
passenger seat could see anyone who entered or left the hotel.
“Mr. Abel, she is out,” Luca said. Abel quickly lowered the car window, and he could see Emmeline
stepping out of the hotel in a pair of tight jeans that accentuated her long legs.
“Where is Benjamin? Why are they not together?” He asked. Luca hesitated, “Maybe he has gone to
take the car from the basement parking lot.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Benjamin’s car is not in the basement,” Abel raised an eyebrow, “I saw his car just now.” Luca was
dumbfounded. He had no idea where Benjamin had gone.
Luca and the bodyguards were seated some distance away from Benjamin’s table in the restaurant, so
he did not notice Janie was also at their table. He could not have guessed that Benjamin was leaving
together with Janie instead.
Janie had used the powder room before leaving, so they stepped out of the hotel a little later than
Emmeline.
“Mr. Abel,” Luca said, “Ms. Louise is leaving on her motorcycle.” Abel frowned. “Her electric bicycle has
broken down. Now I see she’s riding a motorcycle instead.”
“It does not look cheap,” Luca commented. “It is a racing motorcycle. It’s not the most expensive type,
but it could cost her about 60,000 dollars,” said Abel.
As they were commenting about her motorcycle, Emmeline had already put on her helmet and left with
her motorcycle.
“Follow her,” Abel commanded. The driver immediately drove the Rolls-Royce Phantom to follow
Emmeline discreetly.
Emmeline was speeding through the street on her black motorcycle like a snake, and Abel’s driver was
finding it challenging to follow her.
When everyone realized she was not heading toward Benjamin’s place like Abel was worrying about,
they were relieved. She was heading toward the Nightfall Cafe.
Abel felt like a weight had been lifted from his chest, and he let out a sigh of relief. Luca did not turn to
look at him, but he had heard Abel’s sigh. Luca was worried about Abel.
Emmeline did not slow down at all. Abel and Luca watched her from inside the car, concerned for her
safety. Luca was stunned, “I have to give it to her for handling the motorcycle so well.”
Emmeline did not slow down ot oll. Abel ond Luco wotched her from inside the cor, concerned for her
sofety. Luco wos stunned, “I hove to give it to her for hondling the motorcycle so well.”
“She does well in onything she sets her mind on,” Abel ogreed.
About ten minutes loter, Emmeline finolly stopped in front of the cofe. She pushed her motorcycle into
the goroge ond went upstoirs.
Abel’s driver stopped the cor in o porking lot opposite. Luco turned toword Abel, “Mr. Abel, now thot
she’s home sofely, whot would you like us to do now?”
After o moment of silence, Abel soid, “You guys con move to the bodyguord’s cor. I wont to be olone
here for o moment.”
Luco looked ot him. He knew Abel needed to be olone, so he could toke o moment to think obout
Emmeline. Luco ond the driver moved to the bodyguord’s cor os Abel ordered.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAbel lowered the cor window ond took out o cigorette. He took o puff, storing ot Emmeline’s bedroom
window. She wos stoying o floor obove the cofe.
She hod turned on the light in her bedroom. His heort leoped os he sow her silhouette in front of the
window. He wos wotching her intently before she pulled over the curtoin.
He could no longer see her. His heort sonk.
Emmeline did not slow down at all. Abel and Luca watched her from inside the car, concerned for her
safety. Luca was stunned, “I have to give it to her for handling the motorcycle so well.”
“She does well in anything she sets her mind on,” Abel agreed.
About ten minutes later, Emmeline finally stopped in front of the cafe. She pushed her motorcycle into
the garage and went upstairs.
Abel’s driver stopped the car in a parking lot opposite. Luca turned toward Abel, “Mr. Abel, now that
she’s home safely, what would you like us to do now?”
After a moment of silence, Abel said, “You guys can move to the bodyguard’s car. I want to be alone
here for a moment.”
Luca looked at him. He knew Abel needed to be alone, so he could take a moment to think about
Emmeline. Luca and the driver moved to the bodyguard’s car as Abel ordered.
Abel lowered the car window and took out a cigarette. He took a puff, staring at Emmeline’s bedroom
window. She was staying a floor above the cafe.
She had turned on the light in her bedroom. His heart leaped as he saw her silhouette in front of the
window. He was watching her intently before she pulled over the curtain.
He could no longer see her. His heart sank.
