Chapter 1431 The Unwelcome Family
+15 Bonus
Emmeline stepped into the house, but Jorge was not there. Her mind raced as she pondered the situation. This is Albus‘ home. What part does Mr. Jarge, who is closely connected to Mrs. Zeller, play in all this? And Albus” younger brother, Hank, seems to be Mr. Jorge’s sout
“Mr. Jorge…” she asked with a smile as she looked at Michelle. “Is his foot better now?”
Michelle blushed and tugged Albus, saying. Let’s head upstairs.”
Unbeknownst to Emmeline, Jorge was upstairs in a room. Michelle turned to
him and shared, Guess what? The girl Albus is interested in is the same one who accidentally hit you with her car yesterday!”
“What a coincidence. Jorge’s voice could be heard from downstairs.
Curious about the ongoing conversation, Albus asked. “What are you two talking about? Have you met Emmeline?
“Let’s set aside Emmeline for now. Michelle redirected the discussion, and concern was etched on her face. “She saw jurge and me. How will she perceive me when she marries into our family later?”
Albus, his temper flaring, retorted. That’s none of Emma’s concern. She has finally accepted me!”
“She may have accepted you, but I haven’t, Michelle stated angrily. “Let’s put this matter aside for now?
“I don’t need your approval, Albus retorted. “You can return to wherever you came from with Jorge. My affairs are none of your concern!”
With that, Allnus slammed the door and headed downstairs.
Emmeline seized Hannah’s arm and hurriedly left the house.
Puzzled, Hannah asked, “What’s going on with their family?”
Emmeline whispered. “Something is going on in this family.”
“I can sense that, Hannah agreed. “Who is the old man talking upstairs earlier?”
“Mrs. Zeller’s having an affair, Emmeline stated plainly.
“Ah?” Hannah exclaimed in surprise.
Albus rushed out and called after them. Emma!”
“I’m leaving now, Emmeline declared, ending the conversation. “Let’s leave it at that for the time being”
He looked distressed as he tried to explain, “There must be a misunderstanding here.”
She firmly responded, “It’s not my place to interfere. After all, it’s your family’s matter.”
“I’ll address it later, Albus conceded reluctantly. “My mom; she-”
Emmeline interrupted, repeating, “It’s your family’s matter. Let me repeat–it’s not my place to interfere.” She couldn’t bear to stay a moment longer, so she led her sister out of the yard.
She surprised him by embracing him from behind as he went to the kitchen.
Concerned, he turned to hold her and noticed her body trembling slightly. He inquired, “What’s troubling you?”
She clung tightly to him, hiding her face in his chest.
He gently lifted her chin, looked into her searching eyes, and asked, “What’s going on?”
“Albus‘ mother, Emmeline revealed, her voice strained. “She rejected me.”
Abel was momentarily puzzled over this revelation but quickly realized and responded, “Isn’t that at positive outcome?”
However, her eyes–dimmed, and she replied, “But it feels like she rejected Mom too.”
He furrowed his brows, recognizing that he had overlooked this crucial aspect. He thought, Of course, Mrs. Zeller rejecting Emma meant rejecting Aunt Kimberly. Can she handle that?
“Originally Emmeline said, her head bowed. “I wanted to support Mom, but I’ve inadvertently hurt her. If she learns of my rejection by the Zeller family, it will be a source of immense embarrassment for her.”
Curious and empathetic, Abel inquired, “What would you like to do, then? Can you tell me what exactly happened?”
