Chapter 788 Alondra Thought About My Dowry
“Auntie Alondra, why are you asking that?” Abel frowned.
“I’m just worried… Alondra smiled and said, “I’m worried you and Emma will cancel the wedding. Afterall, her dowry is ready.”
“Auntie Alondra.“ Emmeline almost laughed, “Didn’t you say you didn’t prepare a dowry for me?”
“I did want to prepare for you.” Alondra said, “Did someone else prepare one for you?”
“Oh, I see. Emmeline said, “You’re concerned about the dowry prepared by the Adelmar family forme?” “Yes.” Alondra said, “Since the dowry is already prepared, it would be a waste if the wedding iscancelled.” “The wedding won’t be cancelled.” Abel said, “It’s postponed, so don’t worry.”
“I’m not worried about the wedding. Maxwell said, “I’m just worried about Emma. I didn’t take good careof her when she was small, and now…”
Maxwell choked up and could not continue speaking.
Emmeline could tell that he was sincere in his feelings.
After all, he was the biological father. He neglected his children when he was young, but now that he isolder, he realizes nothing can replace family affection.
“I will take good care of Emma from now on.” Abel said, hugging Emmeline’s shoulder. “This time, itwas my mistake.”
“It’s good that Emma is back.” Maxwell wiped his eyes. “It doesn’t matter how much it costs to treat hiseyes. I have some money here.”
“Maxwell!” Alondra pulled Maxwell’s arm. “With just the little property of the Louise family, how can youshow off in front of Abel? Does Abel need you to treat Emma’s eyes?”
“Hehe,” Maxwell awkwardly smiled at Abel. Everyone could hear what Alondra meant.
But at this moment, Maxwell could only smile awkwardly and could not slap her..
“Auntie Alondra.” Emmeline said, “You don’t have to worry about my eyes. The Louise family doesn’tneed to spend a penny on it.”
Alondra hurriedly said, “Emma, that’s not what I meant. With Mr. Abel’s wealth, can’t he help you withyour eyes?”
“I’m sorry.” Abel has a stern voice, “It seems we have to rely on Emma’s family.”
“Mr. Abel” Alondra exclaimed, “The Louise family is not reliable. Their small industry…”
“Did I say anything about the Louise family?” Abel chuckled.
“Emma’s family is not the Louise family. Who else could it be?” Alondra widened her eyes.
Did he expect me to pay for Emmeline’s eye treatment? That’s impossible!
Even Maxwell’s small business income is not enough for me to spend.novelbin
“Don’t forget about the Adelmar family.” Abel sneered. “Weren’t you just thinking about Emma’sdowry?”
“The Adelmar family?” Alondra slapped her forehead. “Oh my goodness, I forgot about Mr. Adelmar!Oops, I didn’t forget about him. I just forgot that he is Emma’s maternal family!”
Emmeline snorted. “Then what does Auntie Alondra have to worry about? The Louise family’s industryis well protected, and no one covets it.”
Alondra smiled and said, “Emma, that’s not what I meant.”
“Then what did you mean, Auntie Alondra?” Emmeline also laughed.
Alondra chuckled. “I’m just concerned about your marriage, nothing else.”
Emmeline also laughed, saying, “You’re making me nervous. I thought you were thinking about thedowry from the Adelmar family.”
She was thinking about it.
But now that she had been called out on it, could she still say it?
It was already lunchtime.
Maxwell and Alondra did not have any intention of leaving.
Abel instructed the chef to prepare some dishes and asked the two to stay for lunch.
During the meal, Maxwell asked Abel for some business resources, and Abel did not refuse for thesake of Emmeline.
Abel gave him the small projects that the Ryker family did not do.
After Maxwell and Alondra had their fill, they happily left.
Abel was about to carry Emmeline upstairs to rest when the gatekeeper came in with an invitation.
“Mr. Abel, this was sent from Mr. Adam. Take a look.”
Is it the invitation from Adam?
