Adam answered the call from his men in the car.

“Mr. Adam, the three girls were too powerful. We couldn’t beat them.”

“Bullsh*t, how can tough men like you guys lose to them?”

“Didn’t you instruct not to hurt them?”

“Get lost!” Adam remembered his instructions to smash the furniture and not to hurt anyone. So, the men could only get beaten by the girls but they were too harsh.

He knew Emmeline could fight but not this powerful. He was surprised the waitress and nanny were so good at martial arts. Were women hidden masters nowadays?

Adam knew his plan had gone wrong when he saw Adrien coming back to the car scowling miserably.

“Don’t scowl! It’ll bring negative energy!” Adrien said.

“Saving a damsel in distress my foot! They were all beaten by 3 girls.”

“I told them not to hurt anyone. You and I would be heartbroken if Emmeline was hurt.”


“Why would you be heartbroken, Adam?” Adrien asked.

“There’s no special meaning to it. Emmeline is my sister-in-law, right?”

“Now what? Emmeline is fine. I should have looked into the horoscopes before I did this.” Adrien pouted.

“This doesn’t count. I will think of another way again.” Adam waved his hands.

“Great! You promised to help me court her. If you can’t succeed, I will laugh at you!”

“Look at you and your attitude! Luckily you were not in line to inherit the Ryker Group.”

“Look who’s talking. You were also eliminated by Grandad! Stop reprimanding me!”

“Wait till you get Emmeline and the kids and Abel married Alana. I will have the chance to scr*w him. The Ryker Group will be mine!”

“Better be!” Adrien replied.

His only concern was Emmeline and the triplets. He didn’t care about who would get the Ryker Group in the end.

Back to Benjamin.

Janie’s face was flushed with a few glasses of wine. She looked delicate.

Benjamin couldn’t help but take a few glances at her. She took the opportunity to snuggle into his arms.

He pushed her away and continued to drink.

“Mr. Benjamin, don't I look good?”

“You do.” Benjamin’s eyes were locked on the wine glass.
