“Abel! Hubby!” Emmeline yelled, “You can’t hide from me!”
Abel ran to the second floor to enter his bedroom, then closed the door.
The next second, he rushed into the bathroom and lay on the sink. His nosebleeds flowed down.
Luckily! A little later, that woman would see my embarrassed appearance. If she sees me having a nosebleed because of her, she’ll be complacent and laugh at me to death! I don’t love her! Nosebleeds are just a natural reaction and have nothing to do with love!
Kendra came downstairs and saw Emmeline pouting and grunting.
“How is it, Ms. Emmeline? Did Mr. Abel respond?”
“He’s abstinent!” Emmeline complained, “He ran away!”
“No rush,” Kendra reassured her, “If you keep it up, you’ll succeed. Let’s take our time. He won’t refuse you sooner or later.”
“But my purpose isn’t to seduce him.” Emmeline was a little worried. “What I want is for him to fall in love with me. That’s more difficult than seduction.”
“Take your time.” Kendra continued to comfort Emmeline. “After all, you two live together. Mr. Abel will fall in love with you again.”
Emmeline scratched her hair. “I finally understand how Janie feels. Aren’t Abel and I the same as her and Benjamin?”
“But you and Mr. Abel have children,” Kendra said, “If it doesn’t work, bring the quadruplets here.”
“I already thought to do so,” Emmeline said, “But I can’t bring them here.”
“Why not? Children are the link between husband and wife.”
“But if the quadruplets see that Abel doesn’t love me anymore, they’ll make a big fuss and backfire.”
“That’s right.” Kendra nodded. “If they see their father doesn’t love their mother anymore, they’ll get hurt.”
“So we can’t pick up quadruplets for the time being.”
“It’s difficult.” Kendra frowned. “You two used to be a good couple. But now…”
Emmeline said, “Let’s not talk about this for now. Let’s cook first. I’ll continue to think about it when I’m full.”
