Chapter 670 Betrothal Gift And Dowry “I see, you want to ask about this,” Emmeline mulled over it for a while, “Of course, the Louises have to attend. After all, Maxwell is my dad.”

“What about the Adelmars?” Rosaline ventured, “I really look forward to meeting them in person. They are no ordinary family!”

“I need to ask Waylon first,” Emmeline replied, “It’s not like Master Robert and Waylon are the most predictable person I ever know.”

“Okay, go ask them soon,” Lewis chipped in, “If Master Adelmar or Mr. Waylon decides to grace the wedding, we have to be ready as well. Can’t be too shabby in our preparation.”

Following that, Emmeline took out his phone to call Waylon.

Waylon answered her call fairly quickly, only after a few rings.

“Emma?”

“Waylon,” Emmeline chirped, “How are you and Master Robert?”

“We are doing great,” Waylon replied in an affectionate tone, “I thought that since you are in such a blissful relationship now, you’ve forgotten all about us. So, I am surprised to get your call.”

Emmeline stuck out her tongue, “I always remember you guys in my heart. I always miss you guys.”

Waylon laughed, “Come, say it. Since you’re calling me, is there anything I can be of help?”

“I will never dare to ask again,” Emmeline pouted, “Your Worryfree really ruined things for me.”

“You ungrateful brat,” Waylon jokingly sneered, “Wasn’t that to save Abel’s life?”

Emmeline knew this, of course.

However, Abel’s sudden change in attitude really tortured her mentally.

“What about your life? Who do you think saved your life? You are really ungrateful, do you know that?”

Waylon continued to press on jokingly.

“Alright, alright,” Emmeline cooed, “I was just saying, you don’t need to fire back at me like that.”

Waylon seemed to let out a huge sigh at the other end of the phone.

“What’s wrong, Waylon?” Emmeline’s heart skipped a beat, “Why are you sighing?”

“My life really sucks nowadays,” Waylon lamented, “Without you bickering with me every other day, my life has no meaning at all.”

Emmeline immediately burst out laughing upon hearing that.

“I thought you were seriously bothered by something,” Emmeline replied, “In the near future, I will bring the four kids to see you, and by then, you would want to run for your life since you can never argue over them. Anyway, the Adelmars have so many islands, you can hide in any one of them and I would never be able to find you.”

This time, it was Waylon’s turn to laugh.

He was thirty-two this year, yet he had no interest in love and romance.

All he cared about was business and medicine, and he would never get tired of doing what he loved every day.

His life was quite a monotonous one.

Ever since Emmeline’s arrival, her quirky attitude raised his eyebrows. Her appearance in his and Robert’s life was a breath of fresh air, and their monotonous lives slowly gained some colors. However, Abel’s sudden change in attitude really tortured her mentally.

The days Emmeline spent on Adelmar Island were one of the few happiest days in Robert and Waylon’s lives.

Robert had long acknowledged her as one of his own, and even his son Waylon had fully accepted her.

Emmeline recalled the sweet memories of the past five years and her heart chambers were filled with warmth.

Adelmar Island really felt like home to her.

“Say it, our dear Emma,” Waylon was still giggling, “What’s the matter for calling me so suddenly?”

“Okay, I’ll begin,” Emmeline began, “Our wedding is going to happen in a few days. I remember telling you guys about it.”

“Yeah,” Waylon nodded, “We remember.”

“Then, will you come to give me your blessing?”

“Of course, we will. We have prepared dowry too,” Waylon said, “But we won’t be able to make it on that day.”

“Why?” Emmeline frowned. Her voice indicated that she was pouting. “I don’t need dowry. All I need is you and Master Robert to come.”

“My dad and Oscar are not on good terms, and you know that,” Waylon replied, “Do you want to see them go at it at your wedding?”

“What happened between Master Robert and Old Mr. Ryker?” Emmeline was curious, “You guys have been hiding this from me for a long time.”

“You don’t need to know yet,” Waylon dismissed her, “I will ask Benedict to bring over the dowry. He will be our representative.”
