Chapter 1450: Chapter 1453

“It was my idea!” Kimberly exclaimed. “I just wanted to establish a relationship with Michelle. There’s no need for dowries or anything like that since I’m not selling my daughter!”

“Emmeline is still my precious baby that I raised! You’re embarrassing me!” Maxwell shouted, abruptly standing up, his face turning purple.

“Dad!” Emmeline hurriedly rushed to his side and held his arm. “Don’t worry, please watch your blood pressure!”

Albus was panicked and pulled out his salary card from his pocket. “Emma, take my salary card. From today onward, you’ll be in charge of my salary. It’s all yours!”

Bang! Unexpectedly, he received a punch to the face.

“You better put away that disgusting thing!” Abel gritted his teeth.

Albus wiped the blood that had dripped to the corner of his mouth and said with lowered eyes, “I know you’re angry, but I had no other choice. How would I have known that Mom spent all my money?”

As he spoke, he tried to hand the salary card to Emmeline.

Abel raised his fist, ready to strike again, but she rushed over and hugged his waist.

“Just forget it. There’s nothing worth fighting for!”

“Abel!” Albus wiped the blood off his mouth. “I’m sincere, so please don’t misunderstand!”

“Fine!” Abel nodded. “Since you’re sincere, listen to me carefully!”

“Yes, yes!” Albus obediently nodded. “Just tell me about it!”

“Three pieces of gold jewelry, including the engagement ring,” Abel said. “I’ll buy them for Emma. She can’t ride a motorcycle, so let’s exchange it for a Ford Focus. The eleven thousand dollars will be changed to fifty thousand. I’ve prepared all the gifts, so you can get them from me!”

“Abel!” Emmeline called out.

“Well…” Albus looked terrified. “How could you afford all these gifts?”

“It’s none of your business,” Abel frowned. “All the sisters in Altney Steel are watching Emma. I want to protect her dignity!”

Albus didn’t know how to respond for a moment.

“I’ve never met your mom,” Abel said coldly. “But please tell her, if she dares to make Emma suffer even a little, I’ll get revenge on your family!”

Albus trembled in fear and quickly replied, “Okay! Okay!”

“Abel!” She raised her eyes sadly. “Why do you have to do this? I’m already in a desperate situation!”

A tear glistened in Abel’s eyes as he looked down at her. He swallowed and said in a choked voice, “Emma, when I hit him just now, did it hurt you?”

She looked at his handsome face, filled with disappointment and resentment, and was momentarily speechless.

She shook her head, about to say something, but Abel whispered, “Take care of yourself!” And then, he resolutely opened the door and left.

She felt herself almost collapsing. What she feared the most was seeing Abel’s departing figure, but this time, Abel truly left.

After sending Albus away, she locked herself in her bedroom.

Her mind was blank and devoid of the ability to think.

She only felt that Abel’s departure had drained her soul. What can I gain from all I have done forBooks Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…

my mom?

There were no answers anymore, and perhaps everything was in vain.

Tears flowed incessantly.

Emmeline sat numbly at her desk in a daze. Then, she saw a carving knife. She picked it up, the blade against her wrist, and fiercely slashed it…

Drip, drip, the blood soon covered the floor.

There was no pain as if a gust of wind had blown through her mind, refreshing and cool.

In her memories, the image of Abel as a young boy flickered by.

That elegant, handsome young boy.

Tears streamed down her face, scorching hot.

Emmeline trembled violently. What am I doing?

She glanced at the cut on her left wrist, and the blood was still flowing! Then, she screamed in horror, but she quickly covered her mouth.

She swiftly found several rubber bands and tied them tightly around her wrist!

There were cotton masks in the desk drawer. She quickly tore one open and tightly wrapped it around her wrist.

She hadn’t injured the major artery, but the blood vessels had been cut. Fortunately, she handled it in time, and there was no severe harm.

Even so, Emmeline couldn’t help but shiver.

How can I attempt suicide? Things aren’t hopeless. As long as I live well, I can return to Abel’s side, but he can’t abandon me!

She grabbed the car keys to the Santana and rushed downstairs!

Maxwell heard her panicked escape and hurried over.

There was a pool of blood on the floor of her bedroom.

He burst into tears, sitting on the floor and crying uncontrollably.

Kimberly also ran over and asked, “What happened?”

Maxwell roared, “Get out of here!”
