"Whatever it is, I basically hate Emmeline to death, so go find her and scold her!"
For a brief moment, Alondra found herself rendered speechless.
Then Alondra thought to herself, "I'm going to see Emmeline now, but not to scold her."
Considering her close relationship with Adelmar's Benjamin and the fact that the Louise family's business relies on her, do you believe it would be suitable for me to give her a reprimand?
"Sure," Alondra replied nonchalantly, "I can help you vent your anger, depending on the circumstances."
"Thank you for going through all this trouble for me, Auntie Alondra."
"Why are you being so formal with me? We're not strangers."
"When I become the young mistress of the Ryker family, I will certainly treat you well, Auntie Alondra."
"That's for sure," Alondra said with a smile, "I've done a lot to help you.
"Rest assured, Auntie Alondra, I will remember this."
"Okay, then I think I'll hang up now."
"Goodbye, Auntie Alondra."
Alana finally felt better after she hung up the phone.
This isn't over yet, Emmeline. Just wait and see!
Meanwhile, Sam said at the café, "Ms. Louise, you didn't return all night, and we were worried sick."
Daisy chimed in, "That's right. How would we explain it to Master Adelmar if something happened to you or the triplets?"
Sam added, "Don't forget there's Mr. Benjamin too. You had us worried sick, Daisy and I!"
"Okay, okay," said Emmeline, "It's all my fault. I should have told you."
"This cannot happen again," Sam stated, "I'm afraid Master Adelmar will punish me."
Daisy also added, "Please keep this in mind, Ms. Louise. Otherwise, things will become very difficult for us."
Emmeline reassured them, "Please don't worry. I promise I won't do it again!"
The door to the café swung open as the three talked, and a middle-aged woman walked in.
Emmeline lifted her gaze and saw that it was Alondra.
"Emma, your father recovered quite quickly this time, and the doctor discharged him today," Alondra said.
"That's good to hear."
With joy in her voice, Emmeline exclaimed, "Dad got discharged today? Why didn't you tell me earlier? I could have picked him up!"
"Didn't your brother tell you?" Alondra said, "It's all over."
"It's fine," Emmeline said, "I'll just go see Dad another day."
"Rather than postponing it, why not see him today?"
Alondra chuckled and added, "Actually, your father sent me to ask you to come back home and have dinner. Oh, yes. Also, invite Adelmar's Mr. Benjamin. You must bring him over; your father has specifically requested it."
Emmeline agreed, "Sure. Auntie Alondra, you can go first. I'll buy a few things and then get Benjamin to come with me."
"Oh, you don't need to buy anything," Alondra said, waving her hands. "We are a family, so you don't have to worry about those things."
"Okay, Auntie Alondra. You can go back first. Safe travels."
Emmeline gave Benjamin a call after Alondra left.
She then put on a plain dress and waited for him at the café.
Benjamin arrived shortly in his silver Bentley.
