Chapter 1462 Who Are You?
Landon responded briefly and shook hands with Adam.
Observing this, Alana, who was standing nearby, quickly understood the situation.
She put on a charming smile and hurried over, saying. ‘You must be the elder brother. I’ve heard Abel mention you.”
Adam raised his eyebrows and proudly asserted, “That’s correct. I practically have half the control over Ryker Group!”
Alana chuckled and replied, “Certainly! An elder brother is like a father. Even with Mr. Ryker around, he should show you the utmost respect.”
Intrigued, Adam asked, “And you are… You seem to know a lot about Abel’s family.”
Alana pretended to be shy and smiled without saying a word.
Adam then turned his attention to the Ford Focus parked nearby. “This car looks great. Did my brother buy it?”
With a nod, Alana appeared somewhat envious.
This was the car Abel had bought for Emmeline.
Adam turned to his son, Zahn, and suggested, “Zahn, why don’t you take it for a spin later?”
Zahn shrunk his neck and replied, “I can’t drive! I don’t have a license!”
Adam brushed off the concern, stating. “What’s so difficult about it? I’ll have your uncle teach you later! What’s his is mine, and what’s mine is yours!”
Just as he finished speaking, Emmeline and Luca returned.
The company staff members who had gathered dispersed promptly.
As they often said, aside from Abel, Emmeline was considered the boss of Ryker Group.
Although she didn’t interfere with internal affairs,” she had a significant influence on the core direction of the company.
Emmeline walked around the Ford Focus and asked Landon, “Landon, have you thoroughly inspected everything?”
Landon nodded. “Mr. Ryker instructed me to inspect it, and I’ve checked everything. There’s no issue.”
Emmeline then beckoned the logistics personnel and signed off on the delivery in their waybill.
After that, she directed Luca to relocate the car to the back courtyard.
Emmeline herself drove a Buick Regal and returned to the same area.
Emmeline’s poised and graceful demeanor, coupled with her calm and dignified conduct, left. Adam utterly astonished.
This was particularly evident when she confidently arranged for a chauffeur to drive away the eye– catching Ford Focus.
Puzzled, Adam furrowed his brow and inquired, “Who is she? Why does she seem so commanding?”
Alana pouted and said, “Isn’t she your little sister?”
“My little sister?” Adam appeared confused. “I don’t know her.”
Alana rolled her eyes and explained, “Isn’t she Emmeline Louise? Don’t you recognize her?”
Only then did Adam open his mouth wide. “Oh, right! I remember now. She’s my uncle’s daughter, isn’t she?”
“Yeah,” Alana answered. “She’s Mr. Ryker’s precious little one! And that car earlier was a gift from Mr. Ryker to her!”
Adam raised an eyebrow. “That’s odd. His nephew and his brother haven’t received anything yet. Why did my uncle’s family get it first?”
Adam immediately turned to Landon and said, “Hey, call Abel and tell him to come back quickly!”
Landon frowned. “Can’t you contact Mr. Ryker yourself? I shouldn’t get involved in family. matters.
Adam looked annoyed. “How would I have his number?”
Without a word, Landon returned to the office with a stern expression.
Adam’s gaze then shifted to Alana’s face.
She quickly waved her hand, indicating that she, too, didn’t dare to make that call.
Except for Emmeline, no one dared to provoke Abel’s temper.
Adam furrowed his brow. “In that case, where’s Abel’s office? My son and I will wait there!”
Alana scoffed. “Mr. Ryker’s office has a fingerprint lock now, and only he and Emmeline can access it. Others can’t get in.”
Adam almost jumped up in frustration. This is ridiculous! I’ve come to my own home, and I can’t see anyone or even get through the door!”
Alana shrugged, showing a sympathetic yet helpless expression.
Then tell me, where did that Emmeline Louise go just now? I’ll find her!” Adam demanded.
Alana responded with a cold smirk and gestured down the shaded path. “Head in that direction, to the building at the back.”
Emmeline had just taken off her suit and changed into a comfortable casual outfit when she heard the doorbell. She thought it was Abel returning.
“Abel, I’ve checked the car, and there are no issues!” she called out while getting dressed.
To her surprise, Adam burst in, exclaiming angrily, “I’ve got a problem here!”
Emmeline let out a startled cry and hastily covered herself with her clothes. “Who are you?”
Unperturbed. Adam pulled Zahn over to the sofa, took a seat, and casually remarked, “We’re not outsiders.”
“Please leave!” Emmeline straightened her clothes and frowned. “This is my house, or else I’ll call security!”
“Hmph!” Adam sneered. “Whose house is this? Isn’t it Abel’s house?”C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
