Quadruplets Unite: Mother's Words Are Law novel Chapter 851

"Mm," Abel replied after a few seconds.

"Mm."? Is that all? What's the meaning of that? Emmeline thought while frowning.

Do you think I'm a child? That was what Abel was thinking.

Even so, he was glad that his wife was still concerned about him.

I'm glad that she decided to eat out. It's better than coming home and seeing the door to the study tightly shut.

The waiter served food to the table and opened the bottle of wine.

As the cork popped, Adam shuddered involuntarily.

Two and a half million dollars were gone in an instant.

"Let's open another one," Emmeline said. "Mr. Adam can drink a lot. You're insulting him if you only open one bottle.

The waiter blushed nervously. He uncorked another bottle and poured it into the decanter.

Pop! Adam shuddered again.

That was five million dollars, not including the price of the food.

Adam narrowed his gaze.

If I get my hands on the Imperial Palace again, the money spent here will be pocket change!

D*mn you, Emmeline Louise! You'd better approve my proposal!

Adrien took the decanter and filled Adam's glass.

He was about to fill Emmeline's glass when Adam grabbed her glass.

"I'll fill Emmeline's glass," Adam said. "Let the eldest in the family do it. That's etiquette."

"I didn't know about that, Adam."

Adrien was not going to fight with him anyway. He poured a glass of wine for Lizbeth.

Adam stared at Emmeline. "Emma, I've poured this glass of wine for you. You'll have to drink the entire thing."

"I can't drink. One glass will knock me out," Emmeline said with a gentle smile. "It'll be such a waste if I throw up in the toilet later."
