Quadruplets Unite: Mother's Words Are Law

Chapter 617

Janie tossed the kit into the bin and staggered into the living room to take the call.

"Janie? Are you at Adelmar?"

"No," said Janie quickly. "I'm at home."

"Huh? Are you alright? Why did you take the day off?" asked Emmeline.

Janie took a deep breath. "Just feeling a little dizzy. Just need some sleep."

"I see," said Emmeline. "Catch a break. I'll see you when I get back."

"Sure, Emma." Janie ended the call.

Emmeline puffed her cheeks. She can't come with me. Guess I'll have to do this myself. Well, let's get going, then. She got changed, put on some makeup, and went downstairs. "Kendra, I'm not coming home for lunch. Tell Abel he can start without me."

"Where are you going, Ms. Louise?" Kendra was holding Quincy in her arms.

Quincy was staring at Emmeline. Amused, she pinched the baby's cheek. "Evelyn asked me out for lunch."

"Evelyn?" Kendra's eyes went wide. "You shouldn't go, Ms. Louise. That woman is bad news."

"It's alright," said Emmeline. "She can't hurt me."

"But…" Kendra was still worried.

"I'll be fine," she assured. Kendra doesn't know I can fight. And I have the needles with me too. She went into the garage and picked the silver Bugatti, then she went to the rendezvous spot.

Half an hour later, she came to a hotel, and Evelyn was waiting in a room. When Emmeline made her appearance, she and Evelyn were surprised.

Evelyn said, "I thought Janie was coming."

"She's under the weather."

"I see," said Evelyn. "That's a shame."

"And this is?" Emmeline pointed at the pudgy, middle-aged man in the room.

"This is Mr. Maldings," said Evelyn. "He's been helping me with the business in this city."

"I see," said Emmeline half-heartedly. She didn't like the sight of this man, but she couldn't just leave.
