Ambush of the Quadruplets novel Chapter 541

Evelyn did not think that Abel was gay, but she did not understand how Emmett was capturing all of his attention either. She would only stand a chance against Emmett if Old Mr. Ryker played into her plan and removed Emmett from the picture. After all, the old man had to support her union with Abel if he wanted to quell the gay rumors once and for all.

“Honey, what do you think we should do?” Rosaline asked her husband anxiously.

“How should I know?!” Lewis’ voice was irritated. “I never imagined that Abel was dating a man!”

“Perhaps they’re just friends and there’s nothing going between them…” Rosaline suggested tentatively. “I’m sure the media blew it out of proportion like they always do. If I find out who leaked the news to the paparazzi, I’ll be sure to tear them a new one!”

Evelyn felt the goosebumps on her skin when she heard Rosaline’s angry declaration. She knew the usually polite and poised woman could turn venomous if she wanted to.

“There’s no point for all this now…” Lewis muttered. “You’ve seen the photos yourself. I don’t blame anyone for thinking he’s gay! The only person to blame here is Abel himself for not listening to us when we told him to stop hanging out with that twat!”

“I still think there was a malicious sabotage attempt at play here,” Rosaline added suspiciously. “I bet that good for nothing Adam Ryker had something to do with it!”

“Well, if our son behaved himself in the first place, Adam wouldn’t even have the opportunity to attempt anything!” Lewis boomed.

“It’s not Abel’s fault,” Evelyn said softly. “It’s Emmett who’s always hanging around him. Abel’s just too nice to get rid of him.”

“Yes, I knew it! It must be Emmett!” Lewis’ face was beet red. “I might still be alright with him if he were a woman, but they’re two grown a*s men hugging and touching each other, for god’s sake! It’s no wonder the media is lapping it all up!”

“That’s true. If Emmett wasn’t in the picture, none of this would have happened,” Evelyn quipped.

“This is absolutely unacceptable! I will run that sissy out of this household if that’s the last thing I do!!” Lewis’ eyes burned with fiery determination.

“Let’s see what Oscar has to say first,” Rosaline tried to calm her husband down. “The old man might just threaten to take Ryker Group away from Abel!”

“That’s already expected!” Lewis fumed. “Abel needs to get rid of that man and apologize to his grandfather for all this to come to an end! There’s no one else more qualified to head the company than Abel!”
