Ambush of the Quadruplets novel Chapter 1366

Chapter 1366 It’s Impossible Between You Two 

When they arrived home, Albus happened to be coming downstairs, and they exchanged a brief greeting. 

“Your mother said you still have classes in the afternoon, so I’ll head back first,” Albus said, feeling a bit. awkward. 

Emmeline avoided his gaze and nodded mechanically 

Ms. Maggie, seeing Emmeline return’with tear-streaked cheeks, sensibly stopped chattering and left the 

room. 

“Mom, I’m sorry.” Emmeline leaned against her mother’s knee. 

“You know, Emma, Albus’ parents have a long-standing friendship with your dad and me,” her mother said gently. “You shouldn’t do him bad like that.” 

“Hmm,” Emmeline obediently agreed. 

“If it weren’t for them, I wouldn’t have become a regular worker at Altney Steel, and I wouldn’t have such good treatment now. We owe them a lot.” 

“I’ve never heard you and Dad talk about this before.” Emmeline looked at her mother’s face. 

“You’re just kids; what should we tell you about that?” her mother replied. “Besides, they all became high- ranking leaders at Altney Steel later on, and we gradually grew apart.” 

Emmeline didn’t seem interested in what her mother was saying, feeling a heavy, oppressive weight on her 

heart. 

“But Mom, I don’t want anyone else,” Emmeline muttered with her eyes downcast. “I just want to be with Abel.” 

“Shut up!” Kimberly interrupted Emmeline and shifted her gaze toward Abel. “Abel, watch over Emma. Just because she’s not sensible doesn’t mean you, her older brother should too!” 

Abel understood what Kimberly meant. He nodded in silence. 

Maxwell emerged from his study, his face grim. “Abel, Emma is still young. You should provide more guidance, and don’t let her go astray.” 

“This is my own business,” Emmeline protested as she stood up. “Why are you scolding Abel?!” 

Abel remained silent. 

After a moment, he suddenly stood up and, without any warning, knelt down in front of his uncle. “Uncle Maxwell!” 

Maxwell’s face had turned beyond grim. “Speak your mind. No need to kneel before me!” 

“I watched Emma grow up.” Abel looked up at him. “But no matter who you choose for her, I won’t be at 

case.” 

Maxwell was taken aback, but his tone remained harsh. “You and Emmeline, it’s impossible!” 

“Uncle Maxwell!”

Maxwell slammed the table, his expression grave. 

Abel bowed his head with a resounding thud. “Uncle Maxwell, please let us date!” 

“Abel!” Emmeline was frightened and quickly pulled his arm, but Abel remained motionless. 

“Abel. I’m sure you haven’t forgotten how we’re all related, have you?” Maxwell was exasperated, breathing heavily. 

“I know.” Abel nodded. 

“So how dare you still make such an absurd request?!” 

“But…” Abel raised his head. “My father was adopted, and I have no blood relation to Emmeline. Legally, we are allowed!” 

“Do you also know that your father lost his mother before he was even a year old and was raised by drinking my mother’s milk? In our family records, he’s listed as my elder brother!” Maxwell was furious. 

“But, Uncle Maxwell…”
