Ambush of the Quadruplets novel Chapter 1375

“Santanas are everywhere on the streets. There are several of them in our community!” Maxwell entered, his face grim, looking like someone had killed his family.

“Dad, did you have a fight with Mom?” Emmeline asked.

“Why would I?”

“But your face looks so terrible, like you’ve been angry.”

“I’m not angry. On the other hand, have you been with Abel these past few days?”

“No!” Emmeline thought, He doesn’t even want to see me.

“Are you sure? You really haven’t been with Abel?” Kimberly pressed.

“I haven’t!” Emmeline was annoyed. “I got a part-time job at RetroWave Advertisements for the summer doing planning!”

“Please understand us,” Kimberly said with deeply furrowed brows. “You and Abel really can’t be together. I’m serious.”

“Where are you getting this from? I haven’t even seen Abel at all. There’s nothing going on between us!” Emmeline was on the verge of tears. “Why are you acting so strange today?”

“Then don’t blame me for being ruthless when it comes to you and Abel,” Maxwell said.

“But Mom and Dad, I only want to be with Abel for the rest of my life. I don’t want anyone else!” Emmeline pleaded.

“I just said, the two of you can’t be together. Don’t hold on to illusions!” Kimberly was getting angry.

“There’s no problem between Abel and me. We’re not related by blood, and the law allows it!” Emmeline shouted.

“I don’t care if the law allows it. We don’t allow it! I don’t want the people in our hometown to gossip!” Kimberly retorted.

Just as Emmeline was throwing the cotton swab with iodine into the trash can, she noticed a cigarette pack.

She picked up the cigarette pack from the trash can, and an idea hit her.

“Mom, Dad! Abel clearly came back. It was him just now. Why did you lie to me?”

“That’s your dad’s cigarette pack!”

“No, Dad doesn’t smoke this brand!” Emmeline hastily took out her phone and dialed Abel’s number.

“Abel!”

“Emma!”

“You came back, right? You came home just now!”

“No, Emma!”

“You’re lying to me! You’re all lying to me! I saw you. Because of you, I got hit by a bicycle. Didn’t you see!”

“Emma, what are you saying? I really didn’t know!” Abel sounded panicked. “Are you injured?”

“Don’t pretend anymore. I hate you. You’re all lying to me!”
