Female Novel
Chapter 1293 She Is The Ryker Family’s Enemy
Lewis and his wife, Emmeline, entered Oscar’s study with Abel and his wife.
Oscar rarely went into the study since it was so large.
Whenever he did, it was always for a family gathering.
Oscar’s expression had already darkened before they could even take a seat.
Emmeline remained composed in the face of adversity.
What surprised them was that Oscar’s men surrounded the entire room as soon as the two couplesentered the study.
“Grandad, what are you doing?” Abel said, furrowing his brow. “We are still family! Isn’t this tooconfrontational?”
“Family?” Oscar snarled maliciously. “Are the Adelmar Clan members also my family? Who told youthat?”
“We don’t care about your grievances with the Adelmar Clan,” Abel stated, adding that the problems ofthe previous generation should not be passed on to the next. “If I call my bodyguards, will we,grandfather and grandson, be forced to go to war?”
“Will you go to war? You’ve crossed the line!”
“Didn’t I impose myself on you? These are my parents and my wife,” Abel added. “Can’t I protectthem?”
“Are you defying your grandfather then?”
“I have to because you don’t treat us like family!”
“It is not for you to decide!” Oscar’s face became serious. “The way the Adelmar Clan treated. me inthe past is how I will treat the Adelmar Clan today. You and your parents are free to leave!”novelbin
“I want to see who dares to touch my wife!” Abel said as he drew Emmeline into his arms andcontrolled his anger.
“You’re asking for trouble!” Oscar’s anger flared. “Do you think I won’t harm you?”
“If you have any grievances, Grandfather, feel free to settle them with me.” Emmeline pulled Abel awayand confidently stated, “This has nothing to do with my husband and in-laws, so please don’t involvethem!”
“You’re admitting without being forced!” Oscar’s eyes widened as he asked, “Can you tell me aboutyour friendship with Robert?”
“Didn’t I already say that?” Emmeline calmly answered, “I am Robert’s follower and his adopteddaughter. Robert saved my life and the lives of my three children when we were in at life-or-deathsituation.”
“Then let me ask you again,” Oscar continued. “Is Adelmar Group not owned by Robert? Waylon, thenewly appointed Imperial Palace lord, is also his son!”
“My foster father gave me the industry; Waylon is my eldest martial brother; and, of course, he is alsoRobert’s son!” Why ask me again when Old Mr. Ryker already knows everything?”
“I only had suspicions before,” Oscar admitted, narrowing his eyes, “but today’s birthday video helpedconfirm these thoughts for me. I really should thank whoever sent me the video.”
“Dad,” Lewis grimaced, “whoever that person is, it’s obvious they have bad intentions and are trying tocause conflict in our family! Why are you expressing gratitude to them?”
“Yes, Dad,” Rosaline’s eyes grew fiery. “Please don’t fall for these villains’ schemes and create. chaosin our Ryker family! They can’t stand to see us succeed!”
“You don’t have to tell me that!” Oscar scoffed, “The Ryker family is as strong as a rock and will not fallapart because of a dying woman!”
Emmeline and Abel both gasped upon hearing this.
Lewis and Rosaline’s expressions changed even more.
“What do you mean, Dad? Emmeline is my daughter-in-law, the mother of my four. grandchildren, andthe mother of your great-grandchild,” Lewis explained. “You can’t possibly harm her!”
“Yes, Dad,” Rosaline continued, “no matter what happened in the past, I beg you to remember thefaces of our four great-grandchildren and not make things difficult for Emma. She is a member of ourfamily!”
“For me, Emmeline is no longer a member of the Ryker family,” Oscar declared, “she is an enemy ofthe Ryker family! She is my adversary! I can’t live with her!”
Emmeline, it’s quite lively here, and the old man is quite mischievous!
