Emmeline smiled and shot Abel a look. “Of course, I’ll have Abel accompany me next time when I need to go somewhere.”

“That isn’t so hard now, is it?” Rosaline patted her hand. “Men are meant to be used. They are the ones who should protect women. Don’t spoil them and convince them otherwise!”

Emmeline shot Abel, who had lost color in his face, another glance.

She grinned.

“Come, I made you some herb broccoli and pea soup,” Rosaline said. “I’ll have Daisy make sure she gives it to you.”

“Thank you.” Emmeline felt tears well up in her eyes. “You’re so good to me.”

“How else would I treat you? You’re my grandsons’ mother, my son’s wife. We’re a family. Who else would I play nice with if not you.”

Emmeline smiled sweetly as she nodded.

Once Rosaline and Lewis left, Daisy served her the soup.
