Female Novel
Chapter 1394 Disappointed
Emmeline stood on the side, feeling a shiver down her spine and mixed emotions in her heart.
A large hand held her icy cold hand, and when she turned around, she realized it was Abel who hadcome to pick her up.
He arrived early today. It wasn’t even five yet.
Emmeline couldn’t help but lean into his embrace.
Abel knew that the shocking scene had frightened the little girl.
He reached out and wrapped his arm around her shoulder.
“How could there be such a mother in this world?” murmured Emmeline.
“People come in all shapes and sizes, Abel said.
Janic is so pitiful.
“I always had a feeling that something was going on between them, Abel said. “and now it’s confirmed.”
“Have you met Janic? Emmeline asked, looking up at him.
Abel nodded. “Yes, I have.
Emmeline widened her eyes in surprise. “When? How come I didn’t know?”
“That night when it was pouring rain, you stayed at the guesthouse, and I stayed with you all night.”Abel. laughed and tapped her nose. “Now you know.”
Emmeline was taken aback and hugged his neck. “You were really there that night? I thought I wasdreaming!”
The crowd outside the door had dispersed.
Benjamin shouted to Abel, “Why are you just standing there? Come in and have a drink!”
“Alcohol or tea?” Abel smiled.
“What would you like, buddy?” Benjamin also smiled.
Abel said, “Let’s have tea. I need to take Emma home later.
Benjamin brewed a pot of tea.
“Sorry for the scene just now,” Benjamin said as the three of them sat down at the tea table.
“Our little girl has never seen such a spectacle before. Abel smiled wryly. “It’s truly mind–boggling.”
“It’s because you’ve been protecting Emma too well!” Benjamin said, “No one can hide the truthforever. By doing this, you’ll eventually confuse Emma.”
Abel furrowed his brow, “What do you mean?”
“Society will make her grow up,” Benjamin said, “and when she feels pain, confusion will arise.”
Abel went silent for a moment.
“Benjamin. He took a sip of tea. “Do you have sisters?”
“I have three older sisters, and each one is feisty and can survive anywhere. Benjamin chuckled.
“Listening to you. I feel a bit inadequate.” Abel laughed too.
To be honest. Benjamin lowered his voier. “If I had a younger sister like Emma, I would be even moreprotective than you!”
The two men burst into laughter.
Emmeline went to the hospital to visit Janie.
It had been two days, and she was mostly recovered, although her complexion was still a bit pale.
“That day when I attempted suicide, it’s not because of Tony, Janie said to Emmeline.
Emmeline was taken aback. “Then why?”novelbin
“The doctor said the fetus couldn’t be aborted anymore, and I had to wait until it reached eight monthsto induce labor. I couldn’t do it. This is my child.”
“So, I considered marrying Tony. Maybe it’s the best solution. Even though he did this to me, I also hada responsibility at that time.”
“So, I called my mom. The call was marle to the neighbor’s house, and in front of them, my mommentioned only one thing: money! She demanded nothing but money from that man! She said I’m stillyoung, and I shouldn’t marry him!”
“From beginning to end, she didn’t ask me what happened, showing no concern at all. All she knewwas a man, divorced and about ten years older than me, wanted to marry me. They thought they finallyfound a way to make money and could strike it rich. She had no idea how difficult it was for herdaughter.
After finishing, Janie lowered her head and sobbed.
“That day I saw your mother and your brother, Emmeline said.
“They came?” Janie lifted her tear–streaked face.
“Yes.” Emmeline nodded, remembering the way her mother threw a tantrum.
“But they didn’t come to see me,” Janie said softly. “They never intended to come and see me…”
“It was Bergamin’s idea. Emmeline comforted softly. He said you would be upset if they came to visityou, so he didn’t let them come…”
“Emma, you don’t have to console me. Janic sniffled. “I can imagine why my mom came. They won’tcome and see me. They came only for money, you know?”
