Ambush of the Quadruplets: Stay Away From This Woman

Abel set Emmeline down on the sofa and took the invitation from her. Upon opening it, he saw that it was for Adam’s birthday tomorrow,

“Heh.” He could not help smiling faintly. “I completely forgot about this.

“What is it?” Emmeline asked, a brief flicker in her clouded eyes. “What did Adam send over?”

“An invitation,” Abel replied. “Tomorrow is his birthday; he’s invited us to the banquet.

“Then should I go?” Emmeline tilted her head questioningly. “After all, I can’t see anymore.”

“You still have your husband to look after you, right?” Abel lightly pinched her cheek. “Come with me, otherwise there’s nothing there to hold my interest.”

“You want me to go so I can be a protective ward and fend off any sultry sirens, is that it?” Emmeline teased. “Just so you won’t have any clinging vines hanging onto you and trying to seduce you away?”

“None of them will ever manage that.” Abel fondly slipped an arm around Emmeline’s shoulders. “But I do want them to beat a hasty retreat once they see how beautiful my wife is. Who’s going to be shameless enough to try and be a clinging vine after that?”

Emmeline laughed. “Well then, I’ll gladly be your protective ward. Alright, I’ll come with you.”
