章 16: Abigail, Where Are You?

"Brother Ryland, where are you going?"

Ryland stopped as he saw her approaching him.

"Vanes, I will return to my apartment tonight. You can go home alone, right?"

"Why are you going back there?" Vanessa's expression turned gloomy. "Do you want to meet with my sister?" she asked softly, but disappointment flashed through her eyes.

Ryland took her hand and pulled her close. His anger about the company matter slowly faded when he saw Vanessa's teary eyes.

"I need to see Abigail. It's about company matters. Please understand. Stay at your apartment tonight. I promise we will return together tomorrow, okay?" he gently said, smiling at her.

The thought of Abigail and Ryland in the same apartment was enough to make Vanessa worried.
