“Then…” Alana was lying on Adam’s knee, her little hand tracing up his thigh.
She coquettishly said, “Mr. Adam, can I go with you that day?”
“You?” Adam snorted coldly, “Do you have a death wish?”
“I can disguise myself,” Alana said. “Abel and Emmeline won’t recognize me.”
Adam did not care about her life. But since this woman hated Abel so much, he might be able to use her.
“All right,” Adam nodded, “Once Adrien tells me when the event is, I’ll take you with me.”
“Thank you, Mr. Adam.”
Alana’s little hand reached into Adam’s crotch and said, “Why don’t I take good care of you? I’m a mature woman with great skills. I guarantee that you will enjoy yourself.”
Her touch turned on Adam. He lifted her slender waist and carried her into the bedroom.
Leaving Ryker’s residence, Abel and Emmeline took the children to Levan Mansion.
Emmeline and Rosaline carried the children upstairs for a nap.
Abel stayed in the hall and talked with Lewis.
“Dad,” Abel said, “Grandad and Adam mentioned the Adelmar Clan. Have you heard of it?”
“Adelmar Clan?” Lewis frowned. “You mean the Adelmar family?”
“The Adelmar family?” Abel said, “I haven’t heard of them.”
“The Adelmar family has a small population,” said Lewis, “It seems like there are only two or three men in the family.”
“Can a family with only two or three people be considered a clan?” Abel was puzzled.
“Don’t underestimate these two or three men,” Lewis said, “They are fabulously wealthy, and they have unique skills in hidden weapons and medicine, which makes them unbeatable.”
“Do they have any grudges against Grandad?” Abel frowned.
Oscar even suspected that Emmeline was a member of the Adelmar family.
Does that little girl have such an ability?
Is she capable just because she prepared a few doses of medicine and cured Julianna’s heart attack?
Or just because she can throw two steel needles and knows some unprofessional martial arts?
What a joke!
“I remember your grandad had a conflict with the leader of the Adelmar family,” said Lewis, “A few years ago, when you were abroad, someone from their family came to visit. But after that, there was no news about them.”
“What kind of conflict?” Abel asked.
“I don’t know,” Lewis said, “He never mentioned it.”
“Okay,” Abel nodded.
It seems that Emmeline has no connection with the Adelmar family.
That girl is not that powerful anyway.
And even if there is a connection, so what?
She is still my beloved woman and the mother of my four sons.
We love each other, and I do not care about any clans.
The four kids had fallen asleep, and Rosaline and Emmeline came downstairs.
They look quite intimate.
“Let the kids stay here today,” Rosaline said, holding Emmeline’s hand, “It’s the weekend tomorrow, so we don’t have to keep picking them up and dropping them off.”
“That’s fine,” Emmeline said, “I’ll ask Daisy to come over to take care of them.”
“We have enough nannies here,” Rosaline said, “But Helios, Endymion, and Hesperus are used to Daisy. I’ll ask the driver to pick her up.”
“Okay.” Emmeline nodded with a gentle expression.
“You and Abel come over for dinner tomorrow, and I won’t call you again,” Rosaline said.
“Okay, Auntie,” Emmeline sweetly replied.
“Stop being polite with me,” Rosaline patted her small hand, “Next month, you will marry Abel. After the ceremony, you will have to call me Mom.”
Emmeline blushed and nodded.
“You are so good,” Rosaline smiled. “I am starting to like you more and more.”
“I thank you on behalf of Emma,” Abel hugged Emmeline’s shoulders, “You two get along well, and I am happy to see it.”
“That’s right,” Rosaline said. “If it were Alana, my heart would be uneasy.”
“If Alana did not hold Timmy and claim him as her own for more than four years, your mom wouldn’t let her in the house,” Lewis added.
Lewis said, “Even I feel uncomfortable around that woman, let alone your mom.”
“It appears that she was a fraud,” Rosaline sneered. “Fake cannot be true. True cannot be fake.”
