Chapter 677 Once On Shore, One Prays No More
“We can set a date next time,” Rosaline continued to maintain her politeness.
“Alondra,” After exchanging a greeting with Lewis, he tugged at Alondra, “You’re talking way too much.”
What’s wrong with that?” Alondra argued, “Shouldn’t women talk about cosmetics, fashion, and bags? Unlike you guys, guys like you only know to talk about women.:
Both Lewis and Maxwell stiffened.
Emmeline’s face turned slightly darker too.
She was lucky that this woman with exaggerated makeup here was not her biological mother. Or else, she would feel so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to hide in.
“Hey, Rosaline,” Suddenly, Julianna’s voice came from behind them, “Are you meeting up with your in- laws?”
Everyone turned around and saw that it was Julianna. Landen, Adrien, and Lizbeth were with her too. “What brings you guys here?” Rosaline put on a faint smile, “Are you having a family gathering?”
“Of course not,” Julianna replied, “We are meeting up with our in–laws as well. Didn’t you see that we are waiting for the Murphy family from Altney?”
“I see. Congratulations on that,” Rosaline was being perfunctory.
“Our in–laws are the most wealthy family in Atney,” Julianna shot a look at Maxwell and Alondra, “Unlike some who were just small businessmen.”
Rosaline’s face froze.
“What’s more, our daughters–in–law are the heirs of the Murphy family. No ordinary ladies could compare to them.”
Julianna was saying that with some jealousy in her voice as she directed her gaze at Emmeline.
“Mum,” Adrien pulled his mother’s arm and warned, “You should stop talking.”
“Who do you mean when you say no ordinary girls?” Another voice came from the door.
Everyone turned around and saw that it was Evelyn who made her appearance gracefully. Together with her were Flynn and Adam.
“You’re finally here, Mr. Murphy and Evelyn!” Julianna eagerly welcomed them, “We are waiting fervently for you siblings.”
“Auntie Julianna, Evelyn shot a glance at Emmeline, “Who are you talking about just now?”
“Who else would I be talking about?” Julianna replied, “Both you and Liz are the treasured daughters of the Murphy family, unlike some other girl.”
“Emmeline is in fact…” Rosaline was about to reveal Emmeline’s identity upon hearing their conversation. “Let’s not do this, Madame Ryker,” Emmeline stopped her, “There’s no reason for us to drag this out with
them.”
