“Grandad,” Abel asked, “what happened between you and the Adelmar Clan? How did things. become
so tense? Even in this era, you still consider grudges and hatred irreconcilable. Emma, on the other
hand, has no issues with you!”
“If I tell you, you’ll understand.” Oscar’s voice choked as he said, “I once had a son who was murdered
by Robert.” Don’t you think I have a deep animosity towards the Adelmar Clan? Shouldn’t I seek
revenge on Robert’s adopted daughter if he killed my son?”
Both couples were surprised when Oscar mentioned this.
“Dad, who are you talking about?” Lewis asked. Landen and I are the only two brothers we have. Could
it have happened before Landen?”
“Yes,” Oscar agreed, his eyes somewhat red, and he waved his hand, saying, “Thinking about the past
makes me uneasy. It’s best not to bring it up. But Emmeline came to me on her own. today. Don’t
blame me for being rude. My son died at the hands of Robert, and I want his adoptive daughter to die This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
at my hands.”
“Do you believe that killing someone is as easy as squashing an ant?” Emma scoffed. “Even if Old Mr.
Ryker can hide the truth, no one dares to investigate you. But my lord, Robert, isn’t going to let it go, is
he? Are you willing to continue killing each other and suffering as a result?”
“Don’t lecture me with those high-sounding words! I just want to avenge my eldest son,” Oscar
explained. I’m not thinking about anything else!”
“Dad,” Lewis stood up, “Emmeline is my daughter-in-law and my grandson’s biological mother. If you
truly cannot accept her, I am willing to face the consequences. Punish me, Dad!”
“And me as well!” Rosaline added, “Emmeline is the woman Abel loves, and she is also the mother our
four grandchildren cannot live without. If Dad needs to vent his anger, Abel and I will bear it for
Emmeline!”
“Dad and Mom!” Emmeline sobbed, clutching her grandparents’ arms and saying, “Thank you, but the
Adelmar Clan will handle their own affairs. You don’t have to worry about me.”
“And me,” Abel murmured softly as he embraced Emmeline’s shoulder. “We are a family, and no one
can separate us!”
“Hmph!” Oscar sneered, “You see me, your father, and your grandfather as insignificant? My son
deserved to die at that time.”

“Grandad.” Abel began, “I’m not sure what Uncle has been through, but I’d like to ask, What do you
want to spare Emma?”
“…” Oscar’s gloomy gaze shifted to him, and he continued, “Because she is the mother of four great-
grandchildren, she can be spared from death, but avoiding punishment will be
difficult. Allow this woman to leave the Ryker family and have no contact with you, and I will find you a
wife who is better than her.”
“What if I disagree?” Abel sneered bitterly. “In my heart, Emma is the best in the world! I don’t want to
be with anyone else but Emma!”
“Do you dare to challenge me?” Oscar yelled fiercely.
“What do I have to fear?” Abel smirked coldly. “If I can’t protect the woman I love and leave. her at the
mercy of others, am I not a useless husband?”
“So, what do you want?” Oscar shook with rage, pointing at Abel’s nose and shouting, “You don’t even
listen to your grandfather’s words?”
“I will certainly listen to you,” Abel remarked, “but if it’s something that separates me from my family, as
a man, wouldn’t obeying be laughable?”
“What exactly do you mean? Are you defying your grandfather’s wishes?” Oscar asked.
“I will not be separated from my Emma,” Abel declared, “and neither will Emma and our four children!”
“Abel!” Oscar became enraged, slamming the table and standing up. “Are you threatening
me?”
