Quadruplets Unite: Mother's Words Are Law novel Chapter 710

Chapter 710 Immeasurable Dowry

"You got the wrong idea. Abel didn't harm Emmeline at all. In fact, after she was kidnapped, Abel took the brunt of it. We're all looking for her now," explained Benjamin.

"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."

"A dowry list? Show me. Show me!" said Alondra earnestly.

"Auntie Alondra, you said you wouldn't care about Emmeline's dowry. Why are you so interested in it all of a sudden?" Ethan chimed in.

"What? I didn't say that." Alondra pouted. "I'm... I'm just trying to protect Emmeline's interest."

"Ben," Waylon turned to Benjamin. "Fetch me the dowry list from the car."

"Yes, sir." Benjamin left the room.

Ethan, Maxwell, and Alondra couldn't believe what they just saw. Benjamin, the CEO of Addelmar Group, acted like a personal assistant to Waylon. Just how much of a big shot Waylon was?

"Mr. Waylon," Alondra cozied up to Waylon again. "Which family are you from? Are you royalty or something? Because you just bossed Benjamin around like that."

"It's none of your business. You just need to know that I'm here to deliver Emmeline's dowry. As her immediate family." Waylon continued to speak with a smiling face.

"Immediate family?" Alondra laughed. "So Emma is royalty too? Emma is my stepdaughter. Which means I'm also somehow related to the royal family? Wow!"

"Sir." Benjamin passed a document to Waylon.

Waylon then gave it to Ethan. "Show it to your stepmother. Will this shut her up?"

Ethan merely took a look at the first few items and he already felt overwhelmed. It felt too good to be true so he steeled himself and took another look. However, Alondra snatched the document from Ethan's hands.

"Let me see!"

As she went through the document, she screamed.

"What's the matter?" Maxwell tended to his wife, who was clutching the document near her chest.

"Is it true, Mr. Waylon? If we can't find Emmeline, you'll give me her dowry?"

"Yes." Waylon nodded.

"Oh!" Alondra's voice grew weak as she fainted.

"Alondra!" Maxwell helped Alondra to the couch to lie down. "What an embarrassment. I'm sorry you have to witness this."

It took a few taps to rouse Alondra, who refused to let go of the list even when she was unconscious.

"Am I dreaming?" asked Alondra. "Pinch me, Maxwell."
