Ambush of the Quadruplets
Chapter 1375 You Can’t Be Together

"Santanas are everywhere on the streets. There are several of them in our community!" Maxwell entered, his face grim, looking like someone had killed his family.

"Dad, did you have a fight with Mom?" Emmeline asked.

"Why would I?"

"But your face looks so terrible, like you've been angry."

"I'm not angry. On the other hand, have you been with Abel these past few days?"

"No!" Emmeline thought, He doesn't even want to see me.

"Are you sure? You really haven't been with Abel?" Kimberly pressed.

"I haven't!" Emmeline was annoyed. "I got a part-time job at RetroWave Advertisements for the summer doing planning!"

"Please understand us," Kimberly said with deeply furrowed brows. "You and Abel really can't be together. I'm serious."

"Where are you getting this from? I haven't even seen Abel at all. There's nothing going on between us!" Emmeline was on the verge of tears. "Why are you acting so strange today?"

"Then don't blame me for being ruthless when it comes to you and Abel," Maxwell said.

"But Mom and Dad, I only want to be with Abel for the rest of my life. I don't want anyone else!" Emmeline pleaded.

"I just said, the two of you can't be together. Don't hold on to illusions!" Kimberly was getting angry.

"There's no problem between Abel and me. We're not related by blood, and the law allows it!" Emmeline shouted.

"I don't care if the law allows it. We don't allow it! I don't want the people in our hometown to gossip!" Kimberly retorted.

Just as Emmeline was throwing the cotton swab with iodine into the trash can, she noticed a cigarette pack.

She picked up the cigarette pack from the trash can, and an idea hit her.

"Mom, Dad! Abel clearly came back. It was him just now. Why did you lie to me?"

"That's your dad's cigarette pack!"

"No, Dad doesn't smoke this brand!" Emmeline hastily took out her phone and dialed Abel's number.

"Abel!"

"Emma!"

"You came back, right? You came home just now!"

"No, Emma!"

"You're lying to me! You're all lying to me! I saw you. Because of you, I got hit by a bicycle. Didn't you see!"

"Emma, what are you saying? I really didn't know!" Abel sounded panicked. "Are you injured?"

"Don't pretend anymore. I hate you. You're all lying to me!"

"Emma!" Abel called on the other end of the phone.

"I never want to see you again! I know you just don't want to bother with me anymore!"

Emmeline stormed out of the house.

Maxwell followed Emmeline downstairs and asked, "Emma, where are you going?"

"Dad, please let me calm down," Emmeline said tearfully. "I have an important job to do tomorrow, and I won't go anywhere. I'll just stay in the garden for a while." "Let me accompany you then."

"No, Dad, let me be alone for a while. My mind is in chaos."

"Alright, I'll wait for you downstairs."

"No, you should go back home and be with Mom. She's not in good health. Don't let her worry."

Bark, bark! The sound of a puppy's barks came.

It turned out that when Maxwell followed Emmeline downstairs, Seal also ran down with them.

Emmeline bent down and picked up the chubby little pup, holding it in her arms.

"Dad, I have Seal with me. I won't go far. You can relax now."

Maxwell nodded and returned upstairs.

Emmeline arrived at the community garden, and it was dinner time, so the garden was empty. She sat by the railing in the pavilion, tears streaming down her face. After returning upstairs, Maxwell received a call from Abel. "Uncle Maxwell, is Emma okay?"

"She's not seriously hurt. She's sitting in the garden with Seal," Maxwell replied.

"I'm sorry, Uncle Maxwell. I shouldn't have come back today."

"I don't blame you, and I understand why you won't give up," Maxwell said. "But Emma was really hit by a bicycle, and she has some scratches on her arm."

"I didn't see it." Abel expressed deep regret. "I was so confused, and I just drove past. Is Emma badly hurt?"

"She just has a few scrapes. She applied some iodine," Maxwell said. "Abel, does it still hurt. where I hit you?"

"I'm fine. I have thick skin," Abel replied.

"It breaks my heart to hit you too," Maxwell choked up a bit. "But I'm afraid you'll make a mistake. You and Emma can't be together. No matter how much you beg me, it won't work." Silence replied Maxwell, so he asked, "Did you hear me, Abel?"

"I understand."

"Come home for dinner whenever you can," Maxwell continued. "But you need to change. your perspective. Don't forget that you're still half a son raised by me."

"I know, Uncle Maxwell..."
