Emmeline took a relaxing, hot bath after she went upstairs. She had missed her chance to take a bath the previous evening at the Precipice because she was worried about Abel’s injuries. She felt filthy now.

Emmeline felt refreshed after taking a hot bath and changing into her casual attire. Even though her body continued to feel weak and she moved slowly, she was still able to prepare meals for the kids.

Emmeline put on an apron and went to the kitchen.

The children returned home with Daisy and Sam when the meal was ready.

The kids embraced their mother while wailing aloud.

“Mommy, welcome home! We’re worried sick about you. Sob, sob…”

“Are you hurt? I’ll beat those bad guys and get revenge for you.”

“We don’t want to lose you, Mommy. You have to stay home from now on and not go anywhere.”

“Alright, okay,” Emmeline consoled them and hugged the kids with a smile.

“I’m good now, am I not? Now that I’ve safely returned home, you guys can loosen up.”

Sun raised his head and said seriously, “By the way, Mommy. You should call Timothy now. He’s been worried about you every day too.”

Emmeline’s heart ached. She felt upset that Little Timothy was worried about her. She stroked the kids’ heads and said, “Sure, I’ll call Timothy right away to ease his concerns.”

“Use my phone,” Moon said.

“I’ll call him for you,” Star said.

“Alright, okay! I’ll do as you say,” Emmeline said with a smile.

Even though it’s wonderful to see the kids again, I also feel secretly depressed. How is Abel going to pay back the 565 million dollars he spent to save me?

Of course, 265 million belonged to Adelmar Group; it was also my money. The remaining 300 million belonged to the Ryker Group instead of Abel. His family would definitely make things difficult for him, right?

While Emmeline thought about this, Star called Timothy using Moon’s phone.

Timothy’s childish voice came through, “Moon, is there any news about Mommy?”

Emmeline said softly into the phone, “Timmy, it’s me. I’m back.”

“Sob, sob, sob,” Timothy did not say a word, but he started crying right away.

“Timmy, be a good boy. Don’t cry. I’m fine now, and I’m home. I’m safe now. Don’t worry, be a good boy.”

Timothy managed to stop crying and sobbed, “Mommy, I miss you so much. I thought I’d never see you again. I’m so sad, sob, sob, sob.”

Emmeline said softly, “I’m okay now. Mommy is fine. I’ll come to visit you later, alright?”

Emmeline said softly, “I’m okay now. Mommy is fine. I’ll come to visit you later, alright?”

“Okay, okay. Mommy, please remember to come to see me. I miss you, and I want to be with you.”

“Alright, Timmy. Don’t worry. I’ll definitely come to see you.”

“Okay,” Timothy sniffled, and he was reluctant to hang up the phone.

It seemed like someone took the phone from him, and the call was disconnected.

Emmeline overheard Timothy cry out loud in the end.

“Grandma!”

Emmeline once again began to worry about the boy.

After hearing my conversation with Timothy, would Rosaline be mad? After all, Timothy’s mother is Alana, not me. I’m hoping Rosaline won’t take offense at how close I am to Timothy.

Sam crouched in front of Emmeline. She asked concernedly, “Ms. Louise, do you know who did this?”

Daisy massaged Emmeline’s shoulders, saying, “Once we figure out who did it, we’ll wipe them out!”

Emmeline furrowed her brows. “It was the Imperial Palace’s Palace Lord, but I never saw his face.”

Sam asked, “Were there any grudges between us and the Imperial Palace? Why would they kidnap Ms. Louise?”
