The Quadruplets Are Mine?

The following day, Doris called Emmeline first thing in the morning. She would be late to Nightfall Cafe.

Emmeline was okay with it.

Doris took this chance to go to the bank to link up her bank account to her phone. Then, she was finally able to wire some money to Waylon.

She waited for more than one hour at the bank, but everything was finally done.

She wired seven hundred thousand and ten dollars to Waylon immediately.

Doris decided to send him a text message: Mr. Adelmar, I have transferred you the money. Please check.

She even added a cute emoji at the end of the sentence before sending the message.

However, a notification popped up. A glaring red exclamation mark was screaming at her on the screen of her phone.

Doris froze. It did not take long for her to realize that he had already deleted her contact number!

Doris felt something die in her heart.

He really did not like her at all!

However, given her circumstances, she did not have time to feel sad about it. After all, they were strangers in the first place.

He was right about everything. After returning his money, there was no reason for them to stay in touch again.

Doris immediately cheered herself up. She rode her motorbike to Nightfall Cafe after this.

Emmeline was busy scurrying around the oven on the second floor.

She had successfully baked some dessert, thanks to what she learned in the past few days.

Doris sampled her creation and she could not help but nod satisfactorily at Emmeline’s creation.

“Ms. Louise, you’re a genius. You’re able to learn something so quickly that it’s almost ten times my speed back when I was still a student in Oriental Cafe!”

Emmeline produced a humble smile, “I am not talented in any way besides doing things like these!”

“You’re already too good for your own good,” Doris commented, “As a woman, it’s better to marry a good man than to be so capable at everything!”

At that moment, Sam happened to be sending some coffee upstairs. She overheard their conversation.

Sam could not help but gush about Emmeline. Not only Emmeline was capable of everything, but she also married a good man as well!

It was just that Doris had not discovered all of Emmeline’s talents just yet!

“Ms. Doris, why does it feel like you have so much on your mind lately?” Emmeline shot a meaningful look at Doris.

Emmeline did not fail to notice the downcast look on Doris' face when they were talking just now.

“I am speaking from experience, in fact,” Doris smiled bitterly, “It’s not like I don’t know how to do anything at all. I was a pastry chef in a big hotel, and the benefits were really good. Everything was looking up for me but I did not find myself a good husband. Once I was married, it felt like my life was thrown into disarray and I was back to the times when things were hard.”

Emmeline heard Doris on the phone a while ago. It seemed that Doris was in the middle of divorce proceedings of late.

However, this was really personal for Doris. Emmeline decided not to pry into this particular matter just yet.

Sam interjected, “Ms. Doris, you should forget about the saddening things in your life. We should always look forward to the future.”

“You’re definitely right,” Doris smiled. There were two dimples that formed next to her lips the moment she smiled. She was a dazzling sight to behold.

“Come, let’s have some coffee.”

Sam presented two coffee cups from her tray. She gave one to Emmeline and the other to Doris.

Everyone enjoyed some coffee and pastry, and after that, they continued their work.

Noon came in no time.

At that moment, Emmeline’s phone rang.

She saw that it was Waylon.
