Chapter 232 A Few Glances Are Enough
Adam answered the call from his men in the car.
“Mr. Adam, the three girls were too powerful. We couldn’t beat them.”
“Bullsh*t, how can tough men like you guys lose to them?”
“Didn’t you instruct not to hurt them?”
“Get lost!” Adam remembered his instructions to smash the furniture and not to hurt anyone. So, themen could only get beaten by the girls but they were too harsh.
He knew Emmeline could fight but not this powerful. He was surprised the waitress and nanny were sogood at martial arts. Were women hidden masters nowadays?
Adam knew his plan had gone wrong when he saw Adrien coming back to the car scowling miserably.
“Don’t scowl! It’ll bring negative energy!” Adrien said.
“Saving a damsel in distress my foot! They were all beaten by 3 girls.”
“I told them not to hurt anyone. You and I would be heartbroken if Emmeline was hurt.”
“Why would you be heartbroken, Adam?” Adrien asked.
“There’s no special meaning to it. Emmeline is my sister-in-law, right?”
“Now what? Emmeline is fine. I should have looked into the horoscopes before I did this.” Adrienpouted.
“This doesn’t count. I will think of another way again.” Adam waved his hands.
“Great! You promised to help me court her. If you can’t succeed, I will laugh at you!”
“Look at you and your attitude! Luckily you were not in line to inherit the Ryker Group.”
“Look who’s talking. You were also eliminated by Grandad! Stop reprimanding me!”
“Wait till you get Emmeline and the kids and Abel married Alana. I will have the chance to scr*w him.The Ryker Group will be mine!”
“Better be!” Adrien replied.
His only concern was Emmeline and the triplets. He didn’t care about who would get the Ryker Groupin the end.
Back to Benjamin.
Janie’s face was flushed with a few glasses of wine. She looked delicate.
Benjamin couldn’t help but take a few glances at her. She took the opportunity to snuggle into his arms.
He pushed her away and continued to drink.
“Mr. Benjamin, don’t I look good?”
“You do.” Benjamin’s eyes were locked on the wine glass.
“But why did you just take a few glances at me?” Janie fluttered her long eyelashes.
“No matter how good-looking you are, you’re not the one I like. A few glances are enough.”
“Do you like Emmeline?” Janie asked tentatively as she leaned toward Benjamin.
He kept quiet.novelbin
“According to my observation all this while, you like her without a doubt,” Janie continued.
Tao Yuan tilted his head, closed his eyes, and drank the whole glass of wine.
Janie’s heart dropped.
Benjamin was clearly holding back his tears.
Janie was no longer smiling and she looked down.
“Mr. Benjamin, can you tell me the story of you and Emmeline?” She asked after a long silence
“We’ve been together for three years.”
“Three years? That was long.” Janie was startled.
