Chapter 1371 Sneak Over To See Her

“The City Department Store has been taken over by a Mr. Chester and renamed the World Trade Building.” Tony

said. “Emmeline, have you heard about it?”

“Yes.” Emmeline nodded. “I’ve heard something about it?”

“So, I’m planning to take on the entire advertising project for the World Trade Building,” he said. “I’ve been

wracking my brains to write a proposal, and the heavens brought you, who has a background in this field, to me.

Isn’t it like a godsend?”

She chuckled. “Tony, you sure know how to flatter me.”

“Emmeline, I’ll trouble you with this proposal!” Tony said earnestly. “If it works out, we’ll share the

success!”

Emmeline laughed again. I’m still trying to grasp everything, and you’re already talking about profit- sharing! You’re

scaring me!”

“Emmeline, this is a big deal. We’re partners now!” Tony raised his glass and clinked it with Emmeline’s. without

hesitation. “Benjamin, bear witness, the deal is sealed today!”

Benjamin also picked up his glass and clinked it with Emmeline’s.

“Why do I feel like I’ve been recruited into a gang?” Emmeline joked.

“Emmeline, once you’ve written the proposal, the two of us will go talk to Mr. Chester. We’re sure to succeed!” Tony

said.

“Alright then,” Emmeline reluctantly agreed with a nod.

After dinner, she was once again escorted back to the guesthouse by Benjamin.

Janie handled the check-in process seriously, and the two girls had a simple and relaxed conversation.

Emmeline learned that Janie was a country girl and two years older than herself.

Janie found out that Emmeline was Benjamin’s friend’s sister and had no romantic relationship with Benjamin.

“Janie, do you like Benjamin?” Emmeline asked.

“He doesn’t like me,” Janie said somewhat dejectedly but also with a hint of joy. “But he said maybe he will like me

in the future. Take it slow,”

“Why would he have such an idea?” Emmeline furrowed her brows. “Liking someone should be straightforward. If

there’s no affection, don’t force it. Both parties will end up hurt.”

“Benjamin originally agreed to be engaged to me, then he refused,” Janie lowered her gaze.

“That’s his fault then. Marriage is a serious matter; it can’t be taken lightly,” Emmeline pouted. “I’ll have my brother

give him a lesson!”

“He refused precisely because it’s not to be taken lightly Janie sighed. “I don’t blame him.”

“I really don’t get it.”

“Take it slow; maybe he will come to like me,” Janie smiled shyly. “Many girls here admire Benjamin, so I

misunderstood when I saw you.”

“Benjamin is a really nice person. Make sure to seize the opportunity.” Emmeline blinked her eyes.

“Well, let’s leave it to fate.” Janie sighed softly and asked, “Is your brother coming to pick you up?”

“I didn’t let him know I’m here. We’ll see,” Emmeline said somewhat sadly.

“Don’t be mad at him. Having a brother is a blessing.”

She smiled. Yes, having a brother is indeed a blessing, but that was in the past. Will it continue to be in the future?

Abel knew she was at the bus stop but still didn’t allow her to see him. It was heart-wrenching, but if he didn’t want

to see her, then so be it.

The night had grown deep, and the rain had finally stopped.

Emmeline sat on the bed, hugging her knees, lost in silence for a long time. Eventually, she drifted into a deep

slumber.

She entered that dream again.

She was still beneath that deep cliff, surrounded by ancient towering trees in the eerie darkness of the forest. She

dialed Abel’s number in fear, but no matter how she dialed it, the number was always wrong. She knew his phone

number by heart, and there was no way she could get it wrong, but why did it keep turning out to be wrong?

“Abel!” she shouted from deep beneath the cliff, but her voice could only be heard by herself.

During this time, Abel had already arrived at the guesthouse under Benjamin’s guidance.

“Emmeline has already gone to rest inside,” Janie said as she turned from behind the front desk. “Captain York,

please don’t disturb her.”

“This is Emmeline’s brother, and he’s just here to check on her,” Benjamin explained.

Abel took out his ID from his wallet and handed it to Janic.

Janie registered the information, and then Abel went to Emmeline’s room.

Inside the guest room, a small night light illuminated the dim space in a warm yellow glow. Emmeline was fast

asleep, with glistening teardrops at the corners of her eyes.

Abel looked at her little face, mixed emotions surging within him.
