Female Novel
Chapter 331
In the end, Emmeline expressed a cold and indifferent attitude.
“Emma.” Abel said dejectedly, “I’m not here to argue with you. I have visited to give you my blessings.”
“Hmph!” Emmeline sneered, “Thanks a lot, Mr. Abel.”
A sharp pain struck Emmeline’s heart.
Abel is cold-hearted.
His feelings toward me are non-existent.
How can he treat feelings so lightly?
I used to be so into you, but I’m done now.
Since you have treated me coldly, I will treat you much colder!
Emmeline refused to turn around, and she focused on trimming the flowers.
Snip. Emmeline trimmed everything off.
“This is for you.” Abel handed the folder over, “Take a look.”novelbin
“I don’t need your money.”
Snap! The branches fell to the floor.
“It’s not money.” Abel said as he handed it over, “I thought it’s best to give this to you.”
Emmeline was puzzled and curious.
She moved her gaze from the garden to the folder in Abel’s hand.
“What’s in it?”
“Open it and take a look.”
Emmeline put down the pruning shear suspiciously. She took the folder, and she opened it.
Inside the folder was an agreement to transfer the ownership of a company.
“What…” Emmeline raised her head in surprise, “Are you giving me a healthy and operating company?”
“Yes.” Abel nodded, and he looked at her intently.
“Why? Why should I take your company when everything is fine?”
“It’s because of Adrien’s mom, Julianna.” Abel added, “Julianna is materialistic, and I don’t want her tobully you.”
“Julianna? Bullying me?” Emmeline laughed, “Is she capable of doing so?”
“Emma.” Abel said while looking at Emmeline, “I know you have your pride, and you’re independent.Getting married may complicate things. The children will eventually grow up, and they need to go toschool. You have to improve your financial situation to get a better education for your children.”
“I…”
“I know you have a coffee shop and a part-time job.” Abel held Emmeline’s delicate shoulder, “You’re amom, and you’re not a spoiled little girl. Acting proud is fine, but you can’t go on with your life like that!”
Emmeline raised her head, and she stared at Abel’s eyes intently.
Emmeline knew that Abel wanted the best for her, giving her an equal footing to marry into a wealthyfamily.
However, Emmeline muttered in her heart. I’m from a wealthy family. I have nothing to be afraid of.
In the end, Emmeline was moved. She lowered her gaze, and she said, “Thank you.”
“Silly girl. You don’t have to be so polite with me.”
Abel wanted to embrace Emmeline, but she pushed him away.
Emmeline’s cold gaze met Abel’s eyes, and she shook her head, “I won’t take your company.”
“Emma, listen to me.”
Emmeline shook her head again, “I appreciate that, but I can’t accept your gift.”
Emmeline put the contract back into the folder, and she handed it back to Abel.
“Emma, why?”
“I don’t need it.”
Abel had a realization that Emmeline did not need his love.
“Never mind. I was being presumptuous.”
Abel took the folder. He turned around, and he walked to the stairs.
The next moment, Abel’s cold and tall figure disappeared from Emmeline’s sight.
After leaving the cafe, Abel encountered Benjamin, who parked his silver Bentley, in the parking lot.
“Mr. Abel?” Benjamin greeted Abel first.
“Mr. Benjamin.” Abel nodded, “Are you here to visit Emma?”
“Aren’t you too?” Benjamin sneered.
“Ya.” Abel replied coldly, “Unfortunately, Emma doesn’t appreciate my presence.”
“…” Benjamin squinted, “Is Emma getting engaged with Benjamin?”
“Yes.” Abel nodded, “Emma seems happy too.”
“Haha.” Benjamin smiled.
Benjamin was keenly aware of Ms. Louise’s temperament.
Emmeline would not discount herself for Abel.
However, in Abel’s eyes, Emmeline was overjoyed to be engaged with Adrien.
“Let me check up on Emma,” Benjamin spoke.
“I advise you not to go.” Abel said, “As a fellow lost soul, why don’t we go for a drink instead?”
