Quadruplets Unite: Mother's Words Are Law

When Alana couldn’t reach Emmeline and received only a busy signal, she turned to Albus and complained, “What kind of man doesn’t have the respect of his fiancée? She won’t be back for a few more. days.”

Albus stuttered, “Emmeline is an ambitious woman. It’s only natural for her to be busy with work.”

Giving him a sideways glance, she said, “Let me remind you of something. Emmeline is quite remarkable. She has many suitors vying for her heart. You’re not even good enough for her. If you’re not careful, someone might steal her away.”

Her words frustrated him, and he protested, “We’re getting engaged soon. There won’t be any problems in the future.

She simply sneered. “Anyone can ruin a sure thing. Not to mention, you’re dealing with a woman like her.”

“What do you mean?” He frowned. “What’s wrong with Emmeline?”

“She doesn’t like you, and she’s only following her mother’s wishes. Moreover, she has feelings for someone else.”

“What?” Albus‘ eyes filled with hatred as her words struck him. His face turned red with anger. Who is the guy?”

“I don’t know.” Alana fueled the fire. “But I’ve heard that he’s wealthy and influential. He’s a capable man, much better than you.”

Albus face turned pale at her insults, then his checks flushed with anger as he argued. “I might be incompetent. However, she’s engaged to me. Therefore, she shouldn’t be playing around with me. Otherwise, she’ll learn that I’m not someone to be messed with.”
