Chapter 1486 I’ll Take You Home
Emmeline bit her lip and turned her head, her eyes filled with icy tears.
Albus continued to complain. “We’re engaged, after all. Emmeline, you can’t always treat me like astranger. If something is bothering you, you have to tell me. You can’t keep me in the dark like this, orpeople will mock us.”
Emmeline remained silent. She felt there was nothing to say to Albus.
“My mom wants you to come home for dinner,” Albus said. “She said she has something to discusswith you.”
Only then did Emmeline glance at him and write on a piece of paper. ‘What does your mom want todiscuss with me? Is it worth discussing?
Albus said, “I don’t know. That’s just what my mom said.”
Emmeline’s face darkened again, and she lowered her long lashes without uttering a word.
He sighed and said, “Well, let’s leave it at that. I’ll go back first, and I’ll come pick you up in theafternoon.”
Sam also bid farewell.novelbin
Downstairs, she said to Albus, “Don’t you understand how Emma feels when she’s sick? You only careabout your mom’s words, but you can’t say it nicely?”
“Sam.” Albus rolled his eyes. “Why are you talking like this? I’m just telling the truth. How is that notspeaking properly? So, you’re managing two clothing stores now and making a lot of money. You thinkyou’re capable?”
“Why are you bringing that up?” Sam was annoyed. “Look at Emma’s condition. Can’t you at leastshow some concern?”
“Isn’t this concern?” Albus said. “Who said life is easy? You’re just like Sophia said, going crazy whenyou have money.”
“What nonsense is Sophia talking about?” Sam was furious. “She’s always looking at who has moneyand who has found a rich man. What’s wrong with me? I’m just working for Emmeline and earningsome money.”
Hmph! He sneered. “I look down on you guys who earn money like that.”
“Then, why did you get engaged to Emmeline?” Sam said angrily. “Isn’t her money even more ‘carned?Half of Ryker Group belongs to her.”
“I don’t want to take advantage of that,” Albus said. “I don’t have the ability, and I don’t have acompany. I don’t want to invite trouble and end up with nothing.”
“So, you’re jealous of Abel?” Sam said. “I think it’s just your inferiority complex!”
After Sam and Albus left, Emmeline returned to the study.
The engagement trunk was still sitting in the corner, untouched, even gathering a thin layer of dust.
Emmeline remembered that the jewelry set and the fifty thousand dollar cash that Abel had boughtwere still inside.
It was not acceptable to leave it like this all the time. It was her belongings, and it had nothing to dowith Albus.
She found the key and opened it. Underneath the clothes at the bottom of the trunk, she took out thejewelry box and the cash bundle.
She put the jewelry in her handbag and planned to take it back to the city tomorrow. The fifty thousanddollar cash could be used to buy more winter clothes from Sandwell.
Thinking like this, Emmeline opened the cloth bundle, intending to put the cash into her handbag, butshe found that this stack of cash seemed a bit off.
It seemed to be missing a lot.
She took out the money, sat on the chair, and counted it stack by stack until she added it all up.
A cold, disdainful smile appeared at the corner of Emmeline’s mouth. Abel had prepared. fifty thousanddollars, but the Zeller family had only returned forty thousand.
Where are the remaining ten thousand?
Haha. He took a cut!
Originally, Albus had invited her to his house for pasta that evening. She was hesitant because shewas afraid that Kimberly would be angry if she didn’t go.
But now, she had made up her mind not to go!
The next day, before having pasta for lunch, Abel came back.
After having lunch at home, he took Emmeline back to Altney.
As the car passed by the entrance of Ryker Group, Abel showed no intention of stopping.
Emmeline was wondering, and Abel handed her a set of keys.
Following the car around the lakeside, they drove toward the gate of the Sylvan Mansion.
‘Abel‘ She exclaimed. ‘Did you buy a house here?”
“I told you I would give you a new home.” Abel smiled at the corner of his lips. “No one will disturb us!”
The car parked in a shaded area, and Emmeline got out of the car, looking up at the community.
It was a high–end community with multiple floors, designed in an Elbonian style. The community waslush with green trees, colorful flowers, and beautiful scenery.
Emmeline’s mood suddenly brightened, and she instantly fell in love with this place.
“I’ll take you home!” Abel lifted her from the waist. “To our new home!”
