In reality, Emmeline didn't realize that with her by Abel's side, he would never experience exhaustion.

"Abel Emmeline looked at the bracelet on her wrist and remembered Brandon's words. "Can I ask you a question?" "Sure, what is it?"

Abel's profile was illuminated by a faint light, his captivating handsomeness shining through.

Emmeline took off the jade bracelet on her hand. "What type of jade is this bracelet that you bought in

Serwell?

"I only know it's jade, Abel said. "I don't know the specific kind."

"Some people say it's Imperial jade. Emmeline said. "Imperial jade is quite expensive. How much did you spend on it when you bought it?"

"It's been many years. I forgot." Abel frowned. "Why do you want to know?"

Just tell me how much you actually spent?' Emmeline said, I'm just curious.

"Probably.." Abel tried to recall. Probably around 9,700?"

"9,700?" Emmeline gasped.

Last year, a three-bedroom apartment in Altney Steel's community only cost 50,000 to 60,000!

Five years ago, how much would 9,700 have been worth?

"Five years ago," Emmeline said, "9,700 would've been equivalent to two years' worth of your salary!"

Abel kept quiet.

"Which means you stayed frugal and saved up for two years to buy me this bracelet?" Emmeline asked.

"It's been almost five years," Abel said. "Emma, can we not talk about it?"

"Must you sacrifice so much for me?" Emmeline said, "I'm worried about you!"

"Do you despise me?"

"No! I'm concerned about you! I don't want you to do this!"

"Emma, you are my family, and I want to give you the best things!"

"But this isn't right!"

"Why not?" Abel said, "I don't need you to repay me. You just need to accept.

"Abell"

"Emma," Abel said in a deep voice, there will come a day when I can't reach you, so while you're still by my side..."

"It won't happen!" Emmeline interrupted him with tears in her eyes. "I won't marry anyone except you!"

Screech!

Abel slammed on the brakes, and the car skidded a few meters before stopping by the roadside.

"Emma." Abel's voice was hoarse. "You can't say that."

Www not? That's how I feel!"

"You can't. Just don't."

"But..." Emmeline's eyes shimmered with tears. "But I love you!"

Abel furrowed his brow in pain, turned on the hazard lights, lowered the car window, and lit a cigarette.

Emmeline's words had lifted him to heaven and then dropped him into hell.

What can I possibly offer you, my dear Emma?

He asked himself in his mind.

Our circumstances don't allow it. Have you forgotten, Emma?

It was already 20 minutes past midnight when they retur

to Altney.

Emmeline had fallen asleep.

Abel carried her from the car to the apartment and placed her on the bed.

He poured a glass of warm water and fed her a few sips, then covered her with a blanket and kissed her forehead.

Taking care of her like this was an incredibly sweet thing, intoxicatingly sweet.

Abel couldn't help but smile lightly, his eyes filled with tenderness.

He lit a cigarette and sat on the balcony floor.

In the deep of night, smoke lingered, surrounding him.

Thud!

A heavy thud came from the floor above as if something had fallen.

An elderly couple lived upstairs, with the husband bedridden for years.

When Abe heard the thud, his immediate reaction was that the old man had fallen off his bed.

Then, he heard the cries of the old woman.

Without thinking too much, he put on his shoes, opened the door, and ran up to the third floor.

"Madam! Madam!" Abel knocked on the door.

The door opened, and the old woman sobbed with a tearful voice, "Hurry up and help him! He fell off his

bed!"

Abel rushed into the bedroom in a few strides, but the old man was lying face down on the floor.

He lifted the upper body of the old man and turned him over.

The old man's eyes were tightly closed, his face dark, and he had stopped breathing.

At that moment, the neighbor from across the corridor also hurried over.

Seeing the situation, they immediately said, 'Abel, take him to the hospital."

Without hesitation, Abel picked up the old man and rushed downstairs."

The neighbor had a car, and the three of them, including the old woman, look the old man to the hospital. The old man's children were notified.

When they arrived, the old man had already been covered with a white cloth and taken to the morgue.

Subsequently, Abel and the neighbor returned to the apartment together.

"I knew he was already dead, the neighbor said to Abel.

"Yes, me too, Abel replied in a deep voice..

"But we have to comfort the old lady."

I understand."

"You've got guts, kid. Knowing it's a dead body and still carrying it!"
