Ambush of the Quadruplets novel Chapter 1421

“Children who grew up under the same roof are like family, just as close as siblings.” Emmeline remarked with a smile.

“Familiarity can erode attraction,” Alana countered, a sly grin on her face. “For Abel, I represent something new and exciting. He’ll be curious about me, yearning to win me over.”

“Yearning to win you over?” Emmeline chuckled. “You seem to misunderstand his character entirely. And as for you, well, you might need another thousand years of practice!”

“I may not fully grasp his intricacies, but… Alana flicked her hair and continued, “I have a solid understanding of men. Abel is just a man, and Emmeline, you may know him, but not all men!”

While Alana’s words seemed somewhat tangled, Emmeline grasped their essence and furrowed her brow, acknowledging the underlying logic.

Alana knew her statement had successfully unsettled Emmeline’s thoughts, and she continued with a smile, “Can you honestly say that he will never fall in love with me someday?”

“I can assure you, Emmeline replied calmly. “Abel’s heart has no room for anyone else, but…” She paused and added, “My concern is that he’s persistently a target for others, which can be quite vexing.“

“Are you implying I’m a thief?‘ Alana raised an eyebrow.

“What else?” Emmeline shrugged. “With you around, merely accusing you of being a vixen falls short!

“Very well, I’ll embrace the role of a thief!” Alana retorted with determination. Just wait and see how I win over your man!

After Alana left, Emmeline swiftly removed the bedsheet and discarded it before changing into the one she had purchased earlier. Following this, she took a brief nap. After waking up, she treated herself to a warm shower, tidied her hair, and then checked the time, discovering it was already 5 p.m.

It appeared that the trade fair was nearing its end. So, she decided to change into the new dress she had bought in the city while lightly applying smoky makeup.

At half–past five in the evening, Abel returned, his radiant expression suggesting a highly successful trade fair. As he entered the room, he embraced Emmeline, elegantly clad in a long dress, and exclaimed, “Babe, you look so beautiful. You are the most stunning woman I’ve ever seen!”
