Ambush of the Quadruplets novel Chapter 1312

“Are you trying to butter up your father-in-law?” Robert gazed at Abel. “Well, this old man doesn’t fancy gifts. Adelmar Island has everything. All I want is that you’ll treat our Emma well for a lifetime!”

“That’s for sure!” Abel nodded earnestly. “I will treat Emina well for a lifetime. As long as she doesn’t reject. me in the next life or the one after that and still wants to marry me, I will be good to her for eternity, and may the heavens and the earth bear witness to it!”

“Hahaha!” Robert laughed heartily. “You heard that right, Heaven? Abel must uphold his vow!”

The sky was filled with auspicious clouds as if the heavens knew that Abel would keep his word. Otherwise, instead of auspicious clouds, there would be thunder and lightning.

Everyone gathered in the living room and had tea for a while before it was time for dinner.

The chefs at Dawn Manor had been busy these past few days.

As soon as they received the orders from Robert that guests from the in-laws were coming, the chefs got to work.

The first two days were spent making lists and procuring ingredients from various places, including imports. Then, they began sorting ingredients and partially processing them. Early this morning, they had prepared ninety percent of the ingredients and started cooking.

Steaming, boiling, frying, and braising-everything was in full swing. The kitchen was bustling with activity.

So, when dinner was served, the over 10-yard-long dining table, made of high-quality wood, was filled. with a wide variety of dishes, resembling a grand feast.

A quick estimate showed there were more than ninety dishes.

The four little ones looked on with curiosity and, naturally, began counting to see who could count the fastest and most accurately.

After four rounds, the four little ones unanimously agreed: eighty-one dishes and eighteen soups, totaling ninety-nine!

Lewis and Rosaline exchanged a glance. Oh my, the hospitality from Robert is on par with that of an imperial family!

Little did they know that in this island nation, Robert was indeed a ruler in his own right.

During the meal, Robert asked Emmeline, “Do you know that Waylon has two one-year-old children?”

“I do!” Emmeline replied. “They belong to Doris.”

“I noticed the children look a lot like Waylon,” Robert furrowed his brow. “But based on their age, Waylon was here during that time. How could he have two children who look like him?”
