“Mr. Benjamin, you took Abel’s side too?” Alondra protested.
“The side I took is Emmeline’s,” Benjamin answered.
“No!” Alondra forced her eyes to turn misty. “Emmeline disappeared. Abel owes us an answer.”
“I will find Emmeline. Don’t worry,” said Abel in a husky voice.
“I do not want an empty promise.”
“Alondra!” Maxwell pulled his wife to his side. “Stop making a fuss already. We have enough on our plate.”
“What do you mean I’m making a fuss? Both of us raised Emma. We can’t just let her disappear like that. Oh, my Emma…” Alondra began to sob.
“Fine. If we can’t find Emma, I’ll give you her dowry. For free,” said Waylon.
Alondra’s attitude underwent a drastic change. “Hi, Mr. Waylon. You already prepared the dowry for Emma? May I know what it entails?”
Waylon smiled. “You can have a look at the dowry list. Let me know if you want me to change anything.”
