Chapter 15

Benjamin, however, purposefully or not, got in his way, leaving Abel grabbing onto nothing but air.

Wonder Doctor had got into the ICU in the time it took to stop her.

"We'll see just who you are once you're out!"

He muttered to himself in a low voice.

An hour flew by.

It was only then that the duo left the ward.

Benjamin waved to the crowd. "Mr. Oscar is stable. He should be awake in ten minutes."

"Thank you." Abel handed the five-million-dollar check to him.

Benjamin didn't bother checking it and stuffed it into his pocket.

Emmeline stopped but did not turn around. "Who do I owe the pleasure, Mr. Abel?"

She lowered her voice, making herself sound different. There was a furrow between his brows at that.

He had no choice but to say, "You've saved my grandfather twice now. I'd like to ask you out to dinner to express my gratitude."

"I don't have time," she coolly rejected him.

Benjamin chuckled. "Please excuse us, Mr. Abel."
