StarNovelChapter 163 Acting On Desires
Minutes later, the balcony light was turned on. Abel could see Emmeline vaguely through the hedge.
She was watering the plants.
He smiled gazing at her through the hedge. She looked beautiful tonight. After watering the plants, she
bent to sniff a flower. He could not tell her expression, but he was quite sure she had smiled. Everyone
loved flowers.
Abel wondered if she knew he had built the little garden for her. He felt bitter and sighed. The moment
he looked up again, she was gone. Had she gone downstairs? He would not be able to see her if she
had gone downstairs. He should not have looked away just now.
At the same time, he heard the sound of someone using the swing in the garden. He was relieved to
find Emmeline using the swing. He then wondered if she knew he had built the swing as well.
It was comforting to hear her using the swing. It felt as though she was in his arms. His heart ached a
little. Emma, have you ever loved me?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEventually, the sound stopped, but Emmeline did not go downstairs. Abel could not see what she was
doing, but he guessed she had fallen asleep on the swing.
He frowned. It was late and getting cold. She could fall sick sitting out like that. However, he had no
way to reach out to her. They had blocked and unfollowed each other both on social media and phone
contact lists.
The longer he sat in his car seeing no movement from the swing, the more worried he got. She had
indeed fallen asleep on the swing.
Abel got out of the car and threw the cigarette he was smoking. Luca got out of the bodyguard’s car as
well. All eight bodyguards followed him out of the car.
“What are you doing?” Abel glared at them, “Are you trying to get everyone’s attention?”
“No, we only want to keep you safe,” said Luca. He asked, “What are you doing out, Mr. Abel?”
Abel glanced at the bodyguards and said, “You guys get back into the car. Luca, follow me.”
As the bodyguards returned to the car, Luca followed Abel to the entrance of the cafe. Abel did not
knock. Instead, he was studying the garage. It was added on later on, and the wall was not very tall.
Abel thought for a moment and began to run toward the garage. He swiftly climbed onto the roof of the
garage. Luca realized Abel was going to climb into the house.
Luca was about to get onto the roof as well when Abel stopped him. “You don’t have to get up here.
Just stay there.” Luca immediately stopped right in front of the garage.
Luco wos obout to get onto the roof os well when Abel stopped him. “You don’t hove to get up here.
Just stoy there.” Luco immediotely stopped right in front of the goroge.
Abel took o glonce oround the roof. There wos not o soul in sight, ond there wos no surveillonce
comero os well. He moved toword the window ond climbed into the room.
“Good job!” Luco cheered for Abel os he wotched him beneoth. He wos impressed thot Abel moved so
skillfully. He olso understood by now the reoson Abel osked him to stoy there. It wos Emmeline’s
bedroom Abel wos entering.

toword the bolcony. He found Emmeline osleep on the swing.
She wos curling up like o cot becouse she wos feeling cold. Abel gently covered her with the blonket.

He wos worried she would woke up to see him there, so he quickly hid behind o plont. However, she
did not woke up. She murmured in her sleep, “Abel…”
Luca was about to get onto the roof as well when Abel stopped him. “You don’t have to get up here.
Just stay there.” Luca immediately stopped right in front of the garage.
Abel took a glance around the roof. There was not a soul in sight, and there was no surveillance
camera as well. He moved toward the window and climbed into the room.
“Good job!” Luca cheered for Abel as he watched him beneath. He was impressed that Abel moved so
skillfully. He also understood by now the reason Abel asked him to stay there. It was Emmeline’s
bedroom Abel was entering.
Abel climbed into Emmeline’s brightly-lit bedroom and immediately took a blanket before moving
toward the balcony. He found Emmeline asleep on the swing.
She was curling up like a cat because she was feeling cold. Abel gently covered her with the blanket.
She stirred slightly.
He was worried she would wake up to see him there, so he quickly hid behind a plant. However, she
did not wake up. She murmured in her sleep, “Abel…”
