The following day, Abel was busy with work. His phone rang, and he took it and saw it was from the Lewis Mansion. He put it on speaker, so it did not affect his work.

“Abel,” Rosaline was on the other side of the phone; she asked, “Will you be back for lunch?”

“I’ll eat in the company,” he answered. “There is too much work to be done; I can’t rush back and forth.”

“Oh, er…” She sounded hesitant.

“You don’t have to wait for me.” He hung up the phone. He knew that Evelyn was still waiting for him back there. He felt troubled thinking of her.

“Abel?” Someone said it faintly.

He looked up and saw Benjamin; he was so much slimmer, but he looked energetic.

“Benjamin?” He was surprised. “Please come in to have a seat.”

Benjamin sat on the sofa right opposite him, and he asked his secretary to make them some tea.
