Chapter 1295: Chapter 1297 Family Meeting

“The quadruplets are our grandkids,” Rosaline reasoned. “Our lives will be a living hell if we’re separated from them, and we will never die a peaceful death if the boys are forced to separate from their mother.”

“Abel,” Lewis said, “Your mother and I will follow you to the ends of the Earth.”

“You rascal! Cough, cough, cough!” Oscar suddenly coughed violently.

Lewis hurried over to support him. “Dad, are you okay? Should we call a doctor?”

“Leave, all of you! Leave!” Oscar pushed Lewis away angrily. “You all want to leave, don’t you? Fine! I’ll grant your wish! Leave!”

“Dad, does this mean you won’t give us a hard time anymore?” Lewis asked cautiously.

Cough, cough, cough! Oscar continued to cough and wheeze. “You can all leave, but don’t think about leaving with even a sliver of the family’s assets! Return every one of our stocks and dividends from Ryker Group!”

While Lewis and Rosaline were rendered at a loss for words, Abel dared, “Very well! All of us, Me, Emma, my parents, and our four sons, we will leave the Ryker Group and this family with nothing!”

“Abel, Lewis frowned. “How will we survive like that?”

“Yes, son,” Rosaline also looked worried. “Your dad and I are getting on in years, unable to work. How will we survive without money?”

“Mom, Dad, I’ll entrust the dowry given to me by the Adelmar Clan to your care. What do you say?”

Emmeline proposed.

“That’s your dowry.” Rosaline shook her head. “We won’t touch it.”

“Exactly!” Lewis chimed in. “We will never touch our daughter-in-law’s dowry, no matter how tough things get.”

“That’s my marital property with Abel, Emmeline explained. “It’s our family’s.”

“No can do.” Abel objected. “Emma, your husband is a well-capable man, and it’s my duty to provide for the family. This won’t be a problem.”

At that, he turned to hold Lewis’ hand, saying, “Dad, trust me. I won’t let you and Mom suffer.”

Lewis nodded with faith in his son as tears welled up in his eyes welled up with tears. He patted Abel’s shoulder and said, “You have my support!”

“I believe in you, Abel. You have my support too.” Rosaline wiped her tears. “Let it be this way. In any case, our family won’t be separated!”

“Someone!” Oscar roared. “Summon Landen and his family. Today, I will officially announce that Lewis and his family are banished from the Ryker family!”

With that, Oscar’s assistant hurriedly left the room.

In just five or six minutes, Landen and his family arrived in a rush.

Luca and the others waited in the hallway, not daring to approach without Abel’s orders. After all, this was a Ryker family matter. They would wait for further instructions.

Having heard the commotion, the Steiner mother and daughter discreetly arrived as well. However, with several bodyguards closely guarding the study, they could only sneak around to the restroom to eavesdrop, though it was challenging to hear clearly.

“Dad, what’s going on? Why did you summon us in such a hurry?” Landen asked with feigned oblivion.

“Yeah,” Julianna chimed in. “We were just enjoying the opera and having some snacks. It was so lively.

Why did you suddenly call us here? Are you going to convene a family meeting?”

“Grandad!” Adam rubbed his hands together. “Please don’t believe in that crazy video. It’s just malicious. people trying to disrupt the peace and unity of our family.”

“That’s right, Grandad,” Adrien added, furrowing his brow. “You shouldn’t stick to old-fashioned thinking anymore. Let bygones be bygones. Look at how wonderful Emma and Abel’s family is!”

“What do you two know?!” Oh, how Julianna wanted to reprimand her two sons. “Who do you think your grandfather is?! He knows exactly what to do!”

“Don’t make trouble, you two!” Landen added. “Listen to your grandfather!”

Adam and Adrien shut up at once. But the next second, Adrien whispered to Emmeline, “Emma, I’ve got your back.”

Adam echoed, defending himself, “I swear, Emma, it wasn’t me. I’m willing to die for my convictions!”

Emmeline nodded. “Thanks, guys. I know what’s what. No need to worry about us.”

Julianna’s face turned pale, and she turned to Rosaline. “Keep your daughter-in-law on a leash. How dare she talk to my sons?!”
