Chapter 60

Adrien was lying on the counter, smiling at Emmeline.

Her skin was so soft and smooth. She was very alluring.

He would immediately get married to Emmeline as long as she agreed.

It was unfortunate that Emmeline's mindset was so firm. She felt nothing for him.

"If you have nothing important, don't come looking for me."

Emmeline lowered her gaze and said flatly, "We've talked about this."

"However, I do have something important to tell you today."

Adrien stated, "The Meriwether Mansion will host a large banquet tomorrow to commemorate the triplets' return. The highlight of the banquet will be you and the kids, so I especially came here to take you dress shopping."

"There is no need for this."

"I'm not anyone to the Ryker family, so I'll just decline to be the star," Emmeline said, her gaze downcast.

"How can that be? You were the one who gave birth to the children," Adrien pointed out.

"I don't have anything against the Ryker family acknowledging the triplets."

"As I've said a thousand times before, I have nothing to do with you—not now, and certainly not in the future," Emmeline said coldly.

"Are you that heartless, Emma?" Adrien said bitterly. "Can't you just think about me?"

"You don't merit consideration."

Emmeline simply raised her eyes and looked at him, saying, "However, I will attend the banquet. I mean, I want to see my kids. I'll prepare the dress, so please return, Mr. Adrien."

Adrien was at a loss for words.

Adrien's face darkened when he was told to leave.
