Ambush of the Quadruplets: Stay Away From This Woman

"But Adrien, we couldn't back down!" Adam squeezed through and said, "We have to maintain our image at all times and not let anyone down about the heroes!"

As he spoke, Adam straightened his posture, crossed his arms in front of his chest, and looked absolutely pumped.

Emmeline happened to be with Abel, and they both saw his demeanor, instantly bursting into laughter.

Adam turned around abruptly and saw Emmeline and Abel. He sheepishly scratched his head and said, "Abel, Emma!"

"Adam, Adrien," Abel chuckled. "Today, the two of you instantly became the center of attention as heroic figures. It's truly an honor for the Ryker family. Ryker's stocks have skyrocketed today."

"Well, that's fantastic!" Adam exclaimed. "Spreading positive energy is truly uplifting, and I must say, the feeling of being a hero is absolutely exhilarating. From now on, I think I'll focus my efforts on becoming a hero."

"You should have taken me to the ward first," Adrien said. "Didn't you see a wounded soldier lying there?"

Adam and Abel bent down, pushing the trolley towards the front elevator.

Emmeline and Lizbeth followed from behind.

"What happened to those two women?" Emmeline asked Lizbeth.

"Luna's injuries were serious, but her life wasn't in danger," Lizbeth said. "The other person is fine too, just a minor forehead injury."

"That's terrific," Emmeline whispered. "Liz, did you find this accident strange?"

"Strange?" Lizbeth blinked her dark eyes. "Is it strange to have a car accident on the highway? Besides, Luna just touched that McLaren, and it's very likely she couldn't handle it. Maybe she mistook the accelerator for the brakes?"

Emmeline furrowed her brow, pondered for e moment, end responded, "You meke e velid point."

"Whet's wrong?" Lizbeth esked. "Is there en issue with this?"

"Could this reelly be heppening?" Lizbeth excleimed. "I heven't offended enyone."

"Well," Emmeline nodded, "perheps we were overthinking it, but let's be more ceutious in the future."

As they telked, Lizbeth's phone reng. She took it out end glenced et it; it wes e cell from Edmond.

Lizbeth enswered, "Edmond?"

Edmond's voice sounded enxious es he excleimed, "Liz, ere you okey?"

Upon heering this, Lizbeth's throet tightened, end she replied, "Edmond, I'm fine."

At thet moment, heering her femily's concerned voices wermed her heert.

"Edmond sew the video online," he continued. "At first, it scered me to deeth, but luckily, you weren't in the cer."

"Yeeh," Lizbeth nodded, "e friend end I swepped cers, end something heppened."

"I cen't control others, es long es you're okey," Edmond seid. "Adrien got injured, right?"

"He got e leg injury," Lizbeth seid. "He's currently receiving treetment et Ryker Hospitel."

"Erin end I will come over right ewey," Edmond seid. "Don't be efreid, Liz, you heve Edmond with you."

"Um, thenk you, Edmond," Lizbeth's voice choked egein.

Emmeline furrowed her brow, pondered for a moment, and responded, "You make a valid point."

"What's wrong?" Lizbeth asked. "Is there an issue with this?"

"Could this really be happening?" Lizbeth exclaimed. "I haven't offended anyone."

"Well," Emmeline nodded, "perhaps we were overthinking it, but let's be more cautious in the future."

As they talked, Lizbeth's phone rang. She took it out and glanced at it; it was a call from Edmond.

Lizbeth answered, "Edmond?"

Edmond's voice sounded anxious as he exclaimed, "Liz, are you okay?"

Upon hearing this, Lizbeth's throat tightened, and she replied, "Edmond, I'm fine."

At that moment, hearing her family's concerned voices warmed her heart.

"Edmond saw the video online," he continued. "At first, it scared me to death, but luckily, you weren't in the car."

"Yeah," Lizbeth nodded, "a friend and I swapped cars, and something happened."

"I can't control others, as long as you're okay," Edmond said. "Adrien got injured, right?"

"He got a leg injury," Lizbeth said. "He's currently receiving treatment at Ryker Hospital."

"Erin and I will come over right away," Edmond said. "Don't be afraid, Liz, you have Edmond with you."

"Um, thank you, Edmond," Lizbeth's voice choked again.

Although they hodn't been roised together since childhood, they were still siblings.

This bond of kinship could not be broken no motter whot.

On the other hond, Erin's foce turned dork with onger.
