Chapter 399: Chapter 400

“Okay,” Emmeline said, raising her chin slightly.

“I wonder what Grandad wants me here for. Any advice?”

“Hmm,” Oscar gestured towards Fabian.

Fabian came over with a small tray.

Emmeline glanced at it and thought it was empty.

But Fabian said, “Ms. Emmeline, please look at what this is.”

Emmeline looked into the empty tray and saw a delicate needle lying inside.

She recognized it at a glance. It was her hidden weapon.

At this moment, she still had two in her hand.

“It’s a needle,” Emmeline answered calmly, “Everyone knows that, right?”

“Whose needle is this?” Oscar asked with narrowed eyes.

“I told Adam last time,” Emmeline scratched her head and looked at Adam, “Adam, last time I showed you. Was it from that store?”

Adam was taken aback because he did not expect Emmeline to remember this.

“You don’t remember?” Emmeline said, “Then I’ll check on eBay and see if that store sells this needle.”

She looked at Oscar and said, “Grandad, how many do you want? I’ll help you place the order. It’s not expensive. I’ll pay for it.”

Oscar did not quite understand what she was saying, “Adam, what is she saying?”

Adam said gingerly, “Emmeline said she’d help you buy it from an online store.”

“Online store?” Oscar frowned. “They sell this in online stores?”

“Yes?” Emmeline said thoughtfully, “I can open up eBay right now. You can choose which store you like.”

As she spoke, she took out her phone and leaned toward Oscar.

“Forget it,” Oscar said, “I don’t want this thing.”

Then why did you ask me whose needle this is?” Emmeline blinked her innocent eyes.

“I don’t know these online stores,” Oscar said. “I just asked you directly, is this a hidden weapon from the Adelmar Clan?”

“Huh?” Emmeline bit her fingertip and widened her eyes. “What clan?”

“The Adelmar Clan,” Oscar said impatiently.

Suddenly, he felt like his grandson had tricked him.

In front of him was a naive and cute little girl who did not seem to know anything.

How could she be as incredible as his grandson had told him?

“Grandad, I know about the scandalous photos posted online, but what about the Adelmar Clan?

What’s the news about?”

Emmeline blinked her bright eyes and turned to Adam. “Adam, can you tell me which media broke the news? I want to check it out too.”

“Adam,” Oscar glanced at him, “Are you sure?”

Adam turned to Emmeline with a cold face and said, “Emmeline, don’t play dumb. Last time, I asked you. What is your relationship with Waylon Adelmar?”

“Grandad,” Emmeline pouted, “Adam is being unreasonable. I told him I don’t like Dragon Oath, but he keeps asking me these questions!”

“Grandad,” Adam said, “Don’t listen to her nonsense.”

“Adam, you’re being unreasonable.” Emmeline stomped her foot, “If you want to know about Waylon, wait until I finish reading Dragon Oath, we can discuss it for three days and three nights!”

Adam was so angry that he waved his hand and said, “Three days and three nights? Forget it!”

Emmeline pouted and did not say anything.

“Forget it.” Oscar impatiently waved his hand.

Adam was also annoyed. How could two ordinary steel needles bought online be considered the Adelmar Clan’s hidden weapons? This was too low-end for the Adelmar Clan.

“But Grandad,” Adam immediately reminded him, “You forgot about the medicine?”

“Yes!” Oscar immediately nodded at Fabian.

He lost the first round, but there was still a second round.

Fabian took out the bag of herbs and showed it to Emmeline.

“I recognize this,” Emmeline said. “It’s the medicine I prepared for Auntie Julianna to treat her heart attack.”

“This is not an ordinary folk recipe,” Oscar said sternly, “How do you know this recipe?”
