Chapter 155 Visiting the Parents-In-Law
“Whatever it is, I basically hate Emmeline to death, so go find her and scold her!”
For a brief moment, Alondra found herself rendered speechless.
Then Alondra thought to herself, “I’m going to see Emmeline now, but not to scold her.”
Considering her close relationship with Adelmar’s Benjamin and the fact that the Louise family’sbusiness relies on her, do you believe it would be suitable for me to give her a reprimand?
“Sure,” Alondra replied nonchalantly, “I can help you vent your anger, depending on thecircumstances.”
“Thank you for going through all this trouble for me, Auntie Alondra.”
“Why are you being so formal with me? We’re not strangers.”
“When I become the young mistress of the Ryker family, I will certainly treat you well, Auntie Alondra.”
“That’s for sure,” Alondra said with a smile, “I’ve done a lot to help you.
“Rest assured, Auntie Alondra, I will remember this.”
“Okay, then I think I’ll hang up now.”
“Goodbye, Auntie Alondra.”
Alana finally felt better after she hung up the phone.
This isn’t over yet, Emmeline. Just wait and see!
Meanwhile, Sam said at the café, “Ms. Louise, you didn’t return all night, and we were worried sick.”
Daisy chimed in, “That’s right. How would we explain it to Master Adelmar if something happened toyou or the triplets?”
Sam added, “Don’t forget there’s Mr. Benjamin too. You had us worried sick, Daisy and I!”
“Okay, okay,” said Emmeline, “It’s all my fault. I should have told you.”
“This cannot happen again,” Sam stated, “I’m afraid Master Adelmar will punish me.”
Daisy also added, “Please keep this in mind, Ms. Louise. Otherwise, things will become very difficult forus.”
Emmeline reassured them, “Please don’t worry. I promise I won’t do it again!”
The door to the café swung open as the three talked, and a middle-aged woman walked in.
Emmeline lifted her gaze and saw that it was Alondra.
“Emma, your father recovered quite quickly this time, and the doctor discharged him today,” Alondrasaid.
“That’s good to hear.”
With joy in her voice, Emmeline exclaimed, “Dad got discharged today? Why didn’t you tell me earlier?I could have picked him up!”
“Didn’t your brother tell you?” Alondra said, “It’s all over.”
“It’s fine,” Emmeline said, “I’ll just go see Dad another day.”
“Rather than postponing it, why not see him today?”
Alondra chuckled and added, “Actually, your father sent me to ask you to come back home and havedinner. Oh, yes. Also, invite Adelmar’s Mr. Benjamin. You must bring him over; your father hasspecifically requested it.”
Emmeline agreed, “Sure. Auntie Alondra, you can go first. I’ll buy a few things and then get Benjamin tocome with me.”
“Oh, you don’t need to buy anything,” Alondra said, waving her hands. “We are a family, so you don’thave to worry about those things.”
“Okay, Auntie Alondra. You can go back first. Safe travels.”
Emmeline gave Benjamin a call after Alondra left.
She then put on a plain dress and waited for him at the café.
Benjamin arrived shortly in his silver Bentley.
Benjamin usually had more than a dozen bodyguards following him in different shifts, but they weren’tthere this time.

“First, let’s go get some gifts. Then we’ll pick up the triplets and head to my father’s house.”
As Emmeline spoke, she cocked her head to look at Benjamin.
In fact, she had turned her head to look at Benjamin because she had been dazzled by the driver’sseat.
She got startled by what she saw.
Wow, look at Benjamin, all dressed up. He looks incredible.
Emmeline pulled at Benjamin’s collar and asked, “What’s going on? Are you headed out on a date?”
With a slight smile, Benjamin asked, “Am I overdressed?”
Emmeline let out a growl and retorted, “Mr. Benjamin, regardless of how you dress up, you’re notmeeting your parents-in-law. You’re only joining me for a meal at my house. Clear?”
Benjamin embarrassedly said, “I think I might have overdressed by mistake. Would you mind if I wentback to change?”
Emmeline raised her hand to look at her watch. It was already five o’clock, and they still needed to pickthe kids up from school.
“Forget it. It’s too late now. We’ll just have to go as we are.”
“Yes, indeed. I’ll make sure to be more careful next time.”
“Next time?” Emmeline glared at him and chided, “With this mentality of yours, considering yourself asthe new son-in-law? Do you really think there will be a next time?”
