Chapter 1041


    Abel said, “Then Sonia only has herself to me for herck of skills. Besides, isn’t she the one who


    proposed the race to begin with? I’m just d it wasn’t you who had the ident; otherwise, someone


    is going to end up dead.”


    Emmeline pouted her lips and remained silent.


    Seeing her unhappy expression, Abelforted her in a low voice, “Alright, don’t be sad. It’s not your


    fault. Don’t take it to heart.”


    Half an hourter, hurried footsteps suddenly echoed in the corridor.


    Everyone turned their heads and saw a middle-aged couple turning into the corridor.


    Abel’s eyebrows furrowed instantly.


    He recognized this couple. They were Sonia’s parents.


    Her father was Mayor Glenn Steiner of Struyria.


    Glenn, concerned about his daughter, didn’t notice Abel and headed straight for the operating room.


    At the door, the operating room was tightly shut, forcing the couple toe to a stop.


    “Mr. and Mrs. Steiner,” Ysabel timidly whispered, “I’m d to see you both here.”

    The couple wasn’t familiar with Ysabel, but they had seen her hanging out with their daughter before.


    So Mrs. Steiner nodded her head and asked with a stern expression, “What happened to Sonia


    exactly?”


    “Sonia was racing with someone,” Ysabel whispered, “and then there was an ident.”


    “Who was she racing with?” Glenn asked solemnly.


    “It was her…” Ysabel gestured with her eyes towards Emmeline.


    Glenn shifted his gaze and then walked towards Emmeline, his wife following closely behind.


    Abel stood in front of Emmeline and greeted, “Uncle Glenn.”


    Glenn squinted his eyes and was pleasantly surprised, “Abel?”


    “Yes,” Abel nodded to the two of them, “It has been a while, Uncle Glenn, Auntie Micha.”


    “Yes, it’s been a few years,” Glenn said, “You’ve already taken over the Ryker Group?”


    “As luck would have it,” Abel nodded.


    “Indeed, talents are born into every generation!” Glenn looked deeply at Abel, “I always had high hopes


    for you, but unfortunately, you left without saying a word.”


    Glenn’s wife, Micha continued, “It truly is a shame. After you went abroad, Soniapletely lost


    touch with you.”


    Abel felt a momentary awkwardness, but immediately wrapped his arm around Emmeline’s shoulder


    and said, “By the way, Uncle Glenn, Auntie Micha, I forgot to introduce you. This is my wife,


    Emmeline Louise.”


    Micha furrowed her brows slightly, “Abel, you’ve already gotten married?”


    “Our children are almost five years old,” Abel replied politely, “They are quadruplets, all male.”


    Micah’s mouth opened wide in astonishment, and her gaze shifted to Emmeline.


    Isn’t she a little too formidable?


    She gave birth to quadruplets. That’s four children!


    It’s no wonder Abel married her!


    “Ms. Louise?” Glenn said with a serious tone, “You were racing with my daughter today, I presume?”


    Abel once again shielded Emmeline behind him and said, “Uncle Glenn, Auntie Micha, is there a


    problem with that?”


    “If it was a normal race without malicious intent, then, of course, there’s no problem,” Glenn said.


    “I will have the race officials provide you with all the recordings for your purview,” Abel said, “Uncle


    Glenn, you can decide for yourself then.”


    “There is always a chance for operational mistakes during a normal race,” Emmeline spoke up, “Mr.


    Steiner, if you watch the recording and find that Ipeted maliciously and intentionally harmed Ms.


    Sonia, I will take full responsibility.”


    Glenn said, “Let’s talk after I see the recording. You are all still children. I won’t falsely use you.”


    “Uncle Glenn, if you are still not reassured,” Abel said, “You can have your own people retrieve the


    recordings from the Swan Lake racetrack.”


    “No need,” Glenn said, “I can still trust you to do that much.”


    “Then I’ll have someone send it over to you,” Abel said, “Since both you and Auntie Micha are


    already here, if there’s nothing else, we’ll be taking our leave.”


    “Alright,” Glenn nodded, “Thank you for bringing Sonia to the hospital.”


    “Abel,” Micah smiled, “How about we have a meal together someday?”


    Abel remained silent for a moment, then nodded, “Yes, I will visit you both soon, along with my wife.”


    He couldn’t have made his intentions any more obvious.


    Micha was clearly an astute woman, her expression turning somewhat unpleasant.


    Abel held Emmeline’s hand and bid farewell to the Steiner couple before leaving.


    The Steiner couple maintained their dignified and gracious demeanor throughout the interaction.


    However, once Abel and Emmeline entered the elevator, Micha’s face turned stern, saying to her


    husband, “Dear, are we just going to let that woman go? If it wasn’t for her racing with Sonia, she


    wouldn’t have gotten into an ident.”
