small bottles of liquid were completely injected.
Emmeline and her father returned home.
Dinner was still ongoing in the dining room.
Due to Emmeline’s unexpected illness, this meal was somewhat awkward.
Emmeline didn’t return to the dining room; instead, she went straight to her bedroom and fell into a
deep sleep.
After Albus left, her mother, Kimberly, didn’t say a word to Emmeline for the entire afternoon while
Maxwell smoked one cigarette after another in the bedroom,

since his wife’s mental state was not good, he didn’t want to go against her wishes.
The World Trade Building’s proposal was refined in detail and awaited signing.
On the day of signing the contract, Emmeline wore a suit and black heels and tied her hair into a bun,

Tony deducted 10% of the revenue and gave Emmeline 29,000 dollars as her share.Out of these 29,000 dollars, Emmeline kept 9,000 as a reserve for her clothing business development.
She- gave the remaining 20,000 to Abel.
“The factory does need money,” Abel said. “But I can’t use your first earnings.
“The money is in your hands now; whether you use it or not is up to you.
“If the factory were running normally, I’d be willing to convert this money into shares for you,” Abel said.
“But right now, I’m gambling with my life, so this money can’t be touched.”
Abel opened a bank account for Emmeline and deposited her 20,000 dollars, preserving it for her.
“How’s the factory contracting going?” Emmeline asked him. I was genuinely worried for you; it’s such a

“How many people will be laid off?”
“Going to be over a hundred, I suppose.”
“That’s a lot!” Emmeline exclaimed..
“What did you expect?” Abel said. “There are even twelve janitors just for cleaning the toilets! And I still

You’re making quite significant changes! Emmeline remarked. “It will really depend on your
management skills.”
“I’ve learned the ropes after watching Scott work all these years. Abel chuckled. “It’s not that difficult.”
“Well, I can’t help much with this, Emmeline said. “You’re on your own. Just don’t forget to make time
for me. Don’t get so busy that you leave me behind.”
“How could I?” Abel ruffled her hair. Without seeing you, my mind would be empty. Even if you didn’t
want to see me, I’d still want to see you. Otherwise, all my efforts would be meaningless.”
“Abel, I want to move out and live on my own. Emmeline changed the subject.
“Why do you suddenly have this idea?” Abel questioned.
Emmeline said nothing. She lowered her head and sighed softly.
“Is something wrong, Emma?” Abel pressed her shoulders.
“No, I’m just not in a good mood.” Emmeline looked extremely gloomy.
Abel knew she wasn’t telling the truth, but he also understood what she meant.
A few days ago, Hannah had called Abel. She asked him to persuade Emmeline not to go further down
the wrong path, as Kimberly was very concerned about her.
Although Hannah had asked Abel to help convince her sister, she had also sounded a warning to “Abel,
I’m telling you, you can’t mess around with Emma. If she can’t get married in the future, it will be a bigproblem. Don’t blame me for not warning your

Hannah sent him another message afterward. You and Emma are not possible. Don’t let her sink
deeper into this!
