The Quadruplets Are Mine?

Emmeline paused her stride, offering a warm smile as she greeted, “Hello, Aunt Audrey!”

Audrey waved her hand. “We’re practically family. No need for formalities.”

“I’ve come to inquire about the training preparations, Emmeline explained. “Mr. Chester. seems occupied, and I didn’t want to disturb him.”

“They’re some old friends,” Audrey said. “They’re in the gold and jewelry industry, discussing the prospect of setting up a counter with Vernon.”

“In that case, I should probably refrain from intruding. Emmeline agreed.

Audrey smiled. “It’s quite a coincidence. Vernon was just looking for you!”

Emmeline then followed Audrey into the office.

“Emma.” Vernon gestured to the middle–aged man seated on the right side of his office desk. “Let me introduce you to an antique expert who can satisfy your curiosity.”

Emmeline promptly greeted the ‘expert.”

“Meet Danny Timberlake, the owner of Valoria Jewelry in Ylora,” Vernon stated. “He’s also an antique appraiser with previous collaborations with Sotheby’s. You can call him Mr. Timberlake.”

“Hello, Mr. Timberlake!” Emmeline greeted with a sweet smile.

Vernon then turned to Danny and said, “This is the girl I mentioned earlier, the one Audrey has wholeheartedly chosen as her goddaughter, Miss Emmeline Louise.”

Danny looked at Emmeline and smiled kindly. “Such a charming young lady, a precious gem among gems, with a hint of blessings around her.

Vernon chuckled. “Audrey was smitten and insisted on adopting Emma as her goddaughter!”
