The Quadruplets Are Mine?

Chapter 1422 You Belong Only To Me, Abel Ryker

“Why do you keep bringing up these issues?” Scott’s brow furrowed as he questioned, “Didn’t I bring you and your mother here?”

“It’s too late!” Alana sighed deeply. I’ve struggled in the countryside for over a decade, and it’s taken a toll on me.

“How is that even possible? Weren’t we all originally from the countryside?” He furrowed his brows in confusion. “If that’s the case, it must be inherent in your nature!”

“You’re still trying to argue and shift the blame!” She sobbed, her voice quivering. “This is all because of you. Look at Emmeline; she’s been treated like a princess because of her parents love and Abel’s protection. What have you given me? Tell me!”

“I know I’ve let you down, Scott admitted, lowering his head. “And now I’m trying to make it up to you. I arranged for you to be with Abel, hoping you’d find a good man to love you in the future. But there are underlying reasons for certain decisions.

“Are you suggesting it’s my fault?” Alana retorted with a cold tone.

Just like Abel,” he said. “If my memory serves me right, his father bought him a work permit during his teenage years, and he ventured to the countryside to work. However, when you observe his diligence and ambition, it becomes evident that these qualities define him, a fact even his father readily acknowledges. His background, whether countryside or otherwise, is irrelevant!”

“But, Dad,” she said. “It wasn’t his father who bought him the work permit; it was his uncle from his biological family. Abel has no blood relation to Emmeline! He even said he would marry her! He doesn’t even care about me!”

“What do you mean?” Scott asked, taken aback. “They’re not blood–related?”

“You didn’t see that coming, did you?” Alana smirked. “Your chess piece was in the wrong place. You’ve miscalculated!” This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

He was genuinely stunned by this revelation. He had never expected that Emmeline and Abel were not siblings.

With a bitter sigh, Alana confessed, “Dad, you’ve placed me in quite a predicament. It would be simpler if I hadn’t fallen in love with Abel, but my love for him runs deep and passionate. I’m unsure how to navigate this situation.”

Scott wrapped his arm around his daughter’s shoulders, his voice quivering as he spoke, “This is my fault. I should have investigated more thoroughly.” He gently wiped away her tears. “Plenty of good men are out there, and I will help you find someone else.”

“But I only have eyes for Abel,” she insisted, pushing her father away. “I can’t imagine being interested in anyone else.”

“This matter has become complicated, Scott admitted, feeling lost.

“Dad” Alana suddenly had an idea. “Let me use your phone.”

With a hint of skepticism, he retrieved his phone from his pocket and handed it to her, “Who do you need to call?”

“Last time I was at Abel’s house,” she began. I intentionally called you from their landline. What was that number?” She began to browse through her father’s phone’s incoming call records.

“Why do you need that number?” he asked. “Alana, you’re not planning to call their house, are you?”

“Mind your own business; I know what I’m doing!” Alana took out her phone and saved the number.

“What’s your plan, Alana?” Scott looked at his daughter intently. “Don’t do anything rash, especially this late!”

“Hmph!” She sneered. “I can’t let Abel and Emmeline enjoy their sweet moments tonight!”

Meanwhile, Abel and Emmeline returned to their tranquil and cozy home, the lights glowing warmly.

She felt tipsy after consuming alcohol earlier and was eager to rest after a long day.

The man settled on the couch, cradling her in his arms. He offered her a few sips of water and asked softly, “Is everything okay between you and Brandon?”

“What do you mean?” She squinted at him and pushed him away, teasing, “Are you feeling jealous?”

Abel gently pinched Emmeline’s cheek and asserted. Just remember, you belong only to me, Abel Ryker!”

Her face flushed with embarrassment, and she affectionately nestled into his embrace. Captivated by her delicate allure, he bent his head to savor the moment

Ring!

The phone on the side table rang. Abel, startled, picked it up to see a call from Maxwell and Kimberly from Almey Steel. He wondered why they were calling so late.
