Chapter 100
Emmeline did not say anything, but her red face told Benjamin
everything that needed to be said.
“Don’t forget what Mr. Adelmar told you,” Benjamin reminded her. “He and Mr. Ryker were…”
Emmeline nodded. “I know. I never forgot Master’s words.”
“I’ll be leaving then. Someone will deliver formal clothes for you and the children to the café.”
“No!” Emmeline blurted.
Benjamin stared at her.
“I mean… Abel has already made preparations,” Emmeline explained bashfully
Benjamin was silent for a few seconds before nodding and saying, Alright then.”
The next morning, Emmeline went to settle the discharge paperwork for Hesperus.
Everyone from Meriwether Mansion, other than Adam, was present.
Abel had been there since early in the morning.
Adrien was hostile. “Abel, I’m very grateful that you saved my son, but whatever happens after that is none of your business. You should return to your office.”
“Don’t leave, Daddy!” Hesperus desperately clung to Abel’s hand.
“I’m your daddy, Star!” Adrien crouched to the boy’s eye level. “This man is your uncle.”
“He’s not my uncle.” Hesperus pouted and shook his head. “Sun, Moon, and I want him to be our daddy.”
Adrien was about to throw a tantrum when Julianna came to Hesperus and home. Sun and Moon are waiting for you.”
“But I want to be with Mommy.” Hesperus looked at Julianna with his puppy eyes. “Mommy, you haven’t spent any time with Sun and Moon lately because you’re in the hospital with me. Why don’t you ask Granny to let them come home with us?”
“No way!” Julianna said angrily. “You will return to the Ryker family!” This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
“I don’t wanna!” Hesperus reached out to Emmeline. “I don’t want to leave you, Mommy!”
Emmeline hugged Hesperus and kissed his cheek. “Don’t worry, Star. No one will take you away from me. You’re all my children, and I’ll always be by your side.”
“But Granny said…”
No one wants to separate you and your mommy,” Julianna said. “My home is your home too, isn’t it? It’s very normal for you to stay over at your granny’s house. Isn’t that so, Emmeline?”
Julianna turned her head to gaze at Emmeline authoritatively, though Emmeline could see that she was also begging her.
Emmeline smiled and nodded. “That makes sense. You don’t have to worry, Star. Your Grandpa and Granny love you very much.”
“Okay then.” Hesperus nodded.
“I’ll carry you.” Adrien reached out to take Hesperus from the bed.
“No!” Hesperus turned and faced Abel. “want this Daddy to carry me.”
Abel picked Hesperus up, which caused Adrien’s expression to drop.
“Must you always fight with me, Abel?”
“The child chose me.”
“That’s enough.” Landen did not want them to argue again. “The party will be at Ryker Mansion, and the kids will be there in the evening anyway. It doesn’t matter who carries the boy.”
“I’ll bring the kids home with me,” Emmeline said. “I’ll dress them up, so they can be at their best when they meet their great-grandfather.”
“Okay.” Landen nodded and said to Adrien, “Fetch Sun and Moon from our home and bring them to Emmetine’s house. After she’s done grooming them, you can send them to Ryker Mansion.”
“Yes, Father!” Adrien agreed to it without showing any hesitation.
Landen turned to speak to Emmeline authoritatively, “Does this arrangement satisfy you?”
Emmeline smiled and said, “It’s a good plan. I agree with it.”
Both of them were thinking, No one can take my sons (grandsons) away from me!
Not long after Emmeline and Hesperus returned to the café, Adrien brought Helios and Endymion over.
The triplets were finally reunited once more.
In the afternoon, Emmeline helped the boys take baths and dressed them in the tuxedos Abel had brought them.
“Wow, Ms. Louise! They look so handsome! They’re like the sun, moon, and stars in the sky!” Daisy exclaimed.
