Chapter 673 The Louise Family Would Not Give Any Dowry
“This is the betrothal gift that the Ryker family has bestowed upon me.”
Emmeline knew what was going through Alondra’s mind, she handed that list of gifts to Maxwell with a
smile.
When Maxwell saw the list, it seemed that he had a hard time breathing.
This list of gifts was too outrageous!
What the Louise family could offer could not even be compared at all.
When Alondra saw the aghast look on his face, she snatched the list away impatiently.
She seemed to have a hard time breathing too the moment she glanced at it.
Oh my god!
The Ryker family was really the most wealthy family in Struyria!
To call them generous was really an understatement. They were really full of sincerity!
She sank into an anguished mood again. Why couldn’t Alana enjoy such a treatment?
“But, Emma,” Alondra sucked in a deep breath, “This list of gifts is really magnificent, but don’t expect us to give you dowry that is even remotely close to what you would receive from the Ryker family. I hope you won’t mind it.”
“Emma,” Ethan said, “I have saved up three million dollars for your dowry. Tell me, what do you want?”
“Really?” Alondra was visibly surprised, “Then, that would do for us.”
Emmeline simply smiled. She did not want the Louise family to give her anything, in fact.
“We are here to invite you to get together with my parents tomorrow night,” Abel stated his intention again, “We don’t have any other intention. As for Emma’s dowry, you don’t need to worry about that.”
“How can that be?” Ethan was a little nervous, “Mr. Ryker, how can we not give Emma a dowry when she is going to marry? We would turn into a laughing stock in others‘ eyes!”
“Ethan,” Alondra rolled her eyes at him, “Mr. Ryker and Emma have already said it. We don’t need to prepare any dowry. Emma can get it ready by herself.”
“Then…” Ethan shot a look at Emmeline, “Emma, you are always the apple of my eyes since we were children. There is no way I will come empty–handed to your wedding.”
“Ethan,” Emmeline’s eyes were reddened as she was about to cry, “I told you, you don’t need to worry about that.”
“She’s right,” Alondra hastily agreed, “Emma said that we don’t have to worry about that. She is showing her respect and filial piety to us. Ethan, you shouldn’t run your mouth like that.”
Ethan did not know what to say. He felt sorry for his precious sister if he did not prepare anything for her.
Even if he wanted to give her some dowry, he only had three million dollars.
“Emma,” Alondra held her hands, “What kind of dowry are you preparing?”
Emma smiled, “It’s something that won’t pale in comparison to the Ryker family’s betrothal gifts. How about that?”
Something that could compare to the Ryker family’s preparations? Alondra gasped a little before dismissing Emmeline, “Emma, it’s okay if you can’t prepare anything significant. After all, we can’t really compare to the Ryker family. You shouldn’t boast like that.”
Emmeline chuckled, “By the time you see the dowry, I am afraid that you will get so shocked that your eyes might drop.”
Alondra still thought that Emmeline was just bluffing. She snorted upon hearing that.
“Dad, don’t forget about tomorrow. At the Nimbus Hotel,” Emmeline finally got up, “Abel and I will be taking our leave now.”
“You should stay for dinner,” Maxwell offered, “I will ask the kitchen crew to get ready.”
“That’s right, Emma,” Ethan added, “I have bought you some of your favorite dishes.”
“We should do this next time,” Emmeline simply felt that she would not enjoy the dinner at all as long as Alondra was around.
This old hag used to conspire with Alana to ruin her life and shun her from the Louise family. To top it off, they had stolen her eldest son, Timothy.
If it was not for her father’s threat, she would have been in jail now.
Abel knew that Emmeline was not fond of this place. He stood up too and held her hand.
“Father–in–law, mother–in–law, we will be going back now.”
“Alright, then,” Maxwell answered bitterly.
He always felt apologetic to her daughter. However, with Alondra still around, there was nothing he could do.
After leaving the Louise family mansion, Abel and Emmeline returned to the Precipice.
Kendra did not come to welcome them with Quincy in her arms. It was an unusual sight.
When the couple reached the main hall, they saw no sign of Kendra too.
Just as they were befuddled with the situation, Kendra came down from the second floor, and she had a nervous expression on her face.
