Chapter 517 The Look of Being in Love

"But Mr. Ryker," Emmeline said, "the car should be fixed by now. You can have Luca send the bill to me. I have no shortage of money."

"I don't either, so let's not worry about it," he replied.

"It's not a small amount, a few hundred thousand at most," Emmeline insisted.

"It's nothing, really," Abel said dismissively.

"Then how about this," Emmeline suggested. "I'll take Mr. Ryker out to dinner to make up for it. It'll make me feel better."

Abel considered for a moment before nodding his agreement. "That sounds fine."

"I can invite some friends of Mr. Ryker's too," Emmeline offered. "The more the merrier, right?"

Abel wondered who to invite.

"Mr. Ryker, pick a time," Emmeline said on the other end of the line. "I'm available anytime."

"How about today at noon?" Abel suggested. "I don't feel like being at home."

Emmeline knew Abel wanted to avoid Evelyn.

"Sure, I'm free at noon too," she replied.

"Let's go to Nimbus Hotel then, how does that sound to you?" Abel proposed.

"That sounds great," Emmeline said. "I'll be there in a bit."

"Okay," Abel said. "Just be careful when you're driving. I don't want you getting into another accident and hitting someone."

"Don't worry," Emmeline laughed. "I don't care about anyone else. I only have eyes for you, Mr. Ryker."

Abel smiled, feeling his heart swell with affection. He couldn't believe he was starting to feel like he was in love.

But a small part of him was also nervous. Could he really be falling for this guy?
