StarNovelChapter 736 Practising Cooking for Emma
“It’s the formula to make Vampire Dust and its antidote
Waylon recounted, “He lured me away before I could destroy it. I quickly realized that something was
wrong, and I doubled back. When I got there, I saw him taking pictures of my things.”
“Waylon, did you get a good look at the owner of the Imperial Palace?” Benjamin asked, “What does he
look like?”
“He was wearing a half mask, so I couldn’t see what he looked like,” Waylon replied.
Abel said, “If that’s the case, it must be him. When Emma was last at the Imperial Palace, she too was
given Vampire Dust. She mentioned that the owner was masked, so she didn’t get a look at his face.”
Benjamin commented, “He’s quite the cunning fox. Let’s see if we can catch him this time.”
Waylon proposed, “Let’s discuss our next steps. To prevent any negative repercussions for both of you,
why don’t I bring in some mercenaries from Osea? That way, you won’t have to do it yourselves and
risk implicating yourselves. With my mercenaries, there will be no way to trace any of this back to you.”
“That’s a valid point,” Benjamin conceded. “Adelmar and Ryker Group are the leading figures in
Struyria with significant social influence. If they were caught engaging in illegal activities, it would
certainly lead to trouble.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAbel suggested, “In that case, let’s proceed with Waylon’s plan. We’ll handle the operation behind the
scenes.”
Benjamin suddenly thought of something and asked, “Should we bring this matter to Inspector Charles‘
attention?”
After some thought, Abel said, “I don’t think that’s a good idea.”
Benjamin said, “Why not? If we inform him, Inspector Charles could take action if something significant
happens.”
“I’m afraid it might backfire,” Abel expressed concern. We don’t know if an Imperial Palace Inspector
Charles‘ ranks.”
spy is among
What Abel just said was enough to alert Benjamin. He nodded and said, “You are right. The Imperial
Palace has all–pervasive influence and power.”
Waylon said, “Then, we’ll just keep Inspector Charles out of this. Things will become even more
complicated if news gets out and they decide to transfer Emma to another location”
Abel replied, “Okay. We’ll follow Waylon’s plan.”
“Very well,” nodded Waylon. “I’ll inform my people in Osea to prepare the necessary manpower and
weapons.”
When Waylon was on the phone, Abel asked Benjamin, Janie is back. How is she?”
Benjamin replied with a bitter tone, “She’s fine. She’s currently living with me at Glenbrook.”
Abel said, “That’s great to hear. You have to take good care of her, especially now that she’s pregnant
with your child.”
Benjamin gave a wry smile and said, “It’s just weird for me to be around her. I really envy you and
Emma.”
“How come me and Emma?” Abel asked, confused.
“You and Emma truly have a remarkable love story,” Benjamin commented. “Having children before you
even met and then falling in love at first sight–it’s like ate brought you together. How could anyone not.
feel envy in a love story like this?”
Abel agreed, nodding his head. “It’s true. If we had looked at each other and hated each other, it would
have been difficult to get together, and it would have been hard on the children.”
“So, that’s what got me thinking, why don’t I have such good luck?” Benjamin let out a soft sigh.
“Then, what are you planning to do?” Abel asked, also worried for Benjamin.
Benjamin said, “A shotgun marriage? What other options do I have?”
Abel remained silent. He didn’t feel it was his place to comment on the matter. However, as a man, he
could empathize with Benjamin’s situation.

weapons will be flown in tonight,” he said, “All we can do now is wait.” manpower
“Mr. Waylon, Mr. Abel, Mr. Benjamin,” Sam addressed them, “you haven’t had a chance to eat yet.
Since there’s nothing else you can do at the moment, are you all ready to have some food?”
“Good idea,” Waylon said, “A man only has the strength to work when he’s full.”
“Okay, I’ll start cooking,” Sam said as she rolled up her sleeves and hurried upstairs.
“I’ll help you,” Waylon said, rolling up his sleeves. “I want to practice my cooking skills to cook
something delicious for Emma later.”
Abel exclaimed, “Then I’ll help too!”
“You and Ben will stay here to sell coffee,” Waylon instructed, “Open up, business as usual.”
Abel and Benjamin raised the roller shutter door, and with that, they were open for business, ready to
serve steaming cups of coffee to eager customers.
“Ring ring!”
Benjamin picked up his phone when it rang, only to frown when he saw the name on the caller ID. It
was Janic.
The timing was uncanny–Benjamin had been discussing Janie moments ago, and now she was calling
him.
Upon sliding to answer the call, Janie’s tearful voice could be heard coming through the phone.
“Benjamin,” Janie’s crying voice came from the other end of the phone. “I’ve twisted my ankle on the
stairs and fell, and now my stomach hurts. I’m afraid for the baby…”
