Chapter 116: Chapter 116

Under Oscar’s orders, Adam gave a call to Emmeline.

“Family meeting?” Emmeline said. “That has nothing to do with me!”

“Ms. Louise, I’m only the messenger. If you have any opinion about it, you can tell that to Grandfather.”

“You thug!” Emmeline was about to give him a piece of her mind when the call abruptly ended.

Emmeline’s face was red with anger.

Thugs! All of them! No one from the Ryker family can be reasoned with!

Even Abel is telling me I have to go to the family meeting. What does that have to do with me?

I’m so fed up with you, Abel!

Emmeline dialed Abel’s number on her phone.

At that moment, Abel was in the smoking lounge with Luca. He left his phone in the room.

Alana quickly got out of bed and picked up the phone.

Emmeline? Heheh! Don’t you know you’re courting trouble? Alana smirked.

She tapped the answer button and said, “Hey, Emmeline! Are you looking for my husband?”

…Alana? What did she say? Her husband? Who is her husband?

Did she mean… Abel?

Emmeline did not reply. She ended the call immediately.

However, the call was immediately returned.

Emmeline thought Abel was calling her. She answered it.

“Emmeline, don’t forget about the family meeting tomorrow!” Alana said and ended the call.

Emmeline stared at her phone in shock.

She did not want to attend the meeting, but it looked like she had to.

She cracked her knuckles. Fine, I’ll go. I’m not afraid of you!

After the call ended, Alana laughed smugly. “I’ll be waiting for you, Emmeline!”

She deleted the call records and returned to the bed.

Abel felt a lot calmer after smoking a cigarette.

He remembered his phone was in the ward, He wanted to know her opinion about attending the family meeting.

However, he received a notification that Emmeline’s number could not be reached.

Abel was surprised. What’s the meaning of this? Did she turn off her phone?

He tried calling her again and received the same notification.

What’s going on? Abel was frustrated.

“Luca, go to the café and see if Emmeline is okay,” Abel said.

“Yes, Mr. Ryker.” Luca took the car keys and went off.

Meanwhile, Emmeline remained disturbed as she held the phone in her hands.

It’s only been a few minutes, and you’re already Alana’s husband?

Do whatever you want, but you shouldn’t let Alana answer my call, right? Or are you too chicken to say it to my face?

Why, do you think I’ll eat you up if you tell me? Or would I throw a tantrum at Alana?

F*ck you, Abel!

Emmeline gritted her teeth and blocked Abel’s number.

Luca arrived at the café and saw that everything was okay.

Emmeline was wearing an apron. She seemed busy at the counter.

The only waiter was serving a customer.

Luca was about to go inside when someone grabbed his wrist.

He turned his head around and saw that it was Daisy.

Daisy took Luca around the corner and said, “You shouldn’t go in now. Ms. Louise is in a foul mood.”

“Why is she angry?” Luca asked. “Mr. Ryker asked me to check on her because he couldn’t get her on the phone.”

“Ms. Louise received a call from Adam earlier, telling her to attend some bothersome family meeting. She became angry after that,”

Daisy said.

“So… is Ms. Louise going?” Luca asked.

“She’s going, of course! Ms. Louise always tackles problems head-on!” Daisy said.

“I’m glad to know Ms. Louise is okay. I won’t go in and bother her then.”

“Mm, okay.” Daisy nodded.
