Judging from his current situation, it would not take him two more triggers before the cracks spread to his face.

"This can't go on, Abel," Benjamin said. "I think you should come clean to Emma."

"Do you want her to worry?" Abel said. "If there's no known antidote, how do you think Emma would react when she heard the news?"

Abel was right. Instead of letting Emmeline worry, it was better to keep the truth from her.
