Chapter 157 A Real Snob

With more people dining that day, including children, Ethan opted to assist the cook in the kitchen.

Emmeline, familiar with the children's favorite dishes, also donned an apron and joined in to lend a hand.

Meanwhile, Alondra graciously offered Benjamin some beverages while Maxwell had a charming smile on his face.

"Mr. Benjamin, please don't take the previous incident to heart. For Emma's sake, Adelmar must assist Louise Corporation, or the situation will become extremely challenging for them."

Grace stewed in anger on the sidelines, complaining inwardly, "Why didn't you say that when you evicted Ethan from the Louise Corporation? Aren't you just flip-flopping now?"

"Adelmar will share any fitting business opportunity with Louise Corporation," Benjamin said, "After all, you are Emma's family."

Emma's family?

On hearing that, Alondra felt a sense of hope and quickly poured more tea into Benjamin's cup.

"Thank you very much, Mr. Benjamin." Maxwell was overjoyed.

"In the end, aren't you still relying on Ethan and Emma?" Grace, unable to control her anger, muttered and rolled her eyes.

Alondra smiled at Grace and said, "Well, what can we do? We're all family." She then asked, "Is your child in junior high school now? Why didn't he come with you?"

"He lives on campus!" replied Grace angrily.

"Bring him to his grandpa's house during the holidays," Alondra suggested, "Your father misses his grandson."

Grace commented, "Dad has probably forgotten what his grandson looks like."

Grace was still seething with anger.

Alondra's face tightened and inwardly criticized, "If I had my own son and daughter, I could rely on them in my old age. Do I even need to put up with all of you?"

The situation was truly maddening!

After some time had passed, the kitchen finished preparing the dishes, and the entire family gathered to dine.

Grace and Emmeline worked together to care for the children; before long, the triplets had finished eating.
