Quadruplets Unite: Mother's Words Are Law

Emmeline knew her mother had depression, and her emotions swung wildly, with good days filled with gentle kindness and bad days clouded by thunderstorms. Her mother often suffered from insomnia, sometimes for over a dozen days in a row.

This not only took a toll on her health but also filled Emmeline and her father with immense concern. They tried both alternative medicine and modern medicine, but neither seemed to work. The doctor warned that if it continued to progress, it could lead to mental health issues.

Emmeline’s father was about to retire, and he said that after retiring, he would take her mother out more, hoping it might help. He was a loving husband, spoiling his daughters as well, a man who was not only at good carner but also took care of his family.

He had served in the military at the age of fifteen and was later placed in Altney’s largest steel conglomerate after recovery, where her mother was also his colleague. They had been married for over twenty years, dedicated, hardworking, and skilled at managing their household. In an era filled with middle school students everywhere, they had nurtured two daughters who both got into college.

After having breakfast, Emmeline arrived at school early.

On Mondays, they raised the national flag before class.

It was a day full of positive energy, a beautiful beginning.

In the hallway, there was an inexplicable noise.

Who could it be so early, and what are they doing?

Emmeline turned the corner on the ground floor and just made out the soft moans of a woman and looked up when she saw a man and a woman passionately kissing, leaning against the railing of the staircase.

“Ah!” Emmeline was startled and covered her mouth. The shocking scene was a first for her in real life.
