    Chapter 297


    Auntie Julianna, what brings you here?” Emmeline smiled while maintaining herposure.


    “Am I not allowed to be here?” Julianna sneered coldly.


    Emmeline also sneered back, “What are you talking about? As a café, we obviously wee each and


    every one of you, but since we haven’t yet opened, we can’t entertain you. Why don’t you go


    somewhere else to kill your time, Auntie Julianna?”


    Julianna sneered, “Emmeline, don’t y dumb with me. You should be able to guess why I’m here,


    right?”


    Emmeline’s beautiful eyes were filled with mockery, and she said, “Auntie Julianna, why would I be


    interested in guessing what’s on your mind?”


    “Fine, I’ll tell you!

    Julianna sat down on a chair. She was about to speak when Sam waved the tablecloth she was


    holding.


    Sam said, “Move! Please step aside! The chairs haven’t been cleaned, and we haven’t been open in


    days. Now, the dust has umted on it.”


    Julianna hurriedly got to her feet. She patted her bottom and then turned to check her attire. She wore


    a dress that cost tens of thousands of dors. She would be devastated if it became dirty.


    Julianna was no longer willing to sit down after this interruption. She chose to carry on talking while


    standing, “Emmeline, are you aware Adrien was shot by a gangster while he was attempting to save


    you?”


    Emmeline nodded.


    Without thinking twice, Adrien had sprinted over to my aid, and he had indeed been shot. I was taken


    aback and upset by his actions. Honestly, I did not want to owe Adrien anything. I’m afraid to get


    involved with him. I prefer to owe Abel in contrast.


    Sadly, I’m unable to dispute Julianna’s ims this time.


    Julianna began to sob, “My son almost lost his life because of you. I almost lost him.”


    Emmeline was able to recall the spot where Adrien was shot. The area was below his shoulder and


    dangerously close to, but not quite at, his lungs. The idea that he was on the verge of dying was untrue


    because there were no vital organs there.


    Emmeline would appear to be using choppy logic if she insisted on this now. So she kept quiet and


    lowered her gaze.


    “My son was almost killed on your behalf, and he’s still in the hospital,” Julianna continued.


    “I feel I can’t allow my son to make such great sacrifices in vain.


    Please return the children to Adrien. They shouldn’t suffer with you anymore!”


    “m!”


    Emmeline pped the table. Despite her frailty, she made a loud and sharp noise.


    Julianna shivered in fear, and she yelled, “What is it? Do you want to challenge me?”


    Emmeline snorted, “Why shouldn’t I? How exactly do my kids suffer alongside me? Which of your eyes


    noticed their suffering?”


    Julianna countered, “It’s obvious. You are just amoner with a meager ie. How can you


    compete with wealthy families like us? Naturally, the kids are in worse shape with you than they are


    with us!”


    Emmeline bellowed angrily, “Take back your nonsense! The children are mine. Who do you think you


    are?”


    Julianna raised her brows and stomped her feet. She snarled, “I have the right to take them back for


    my son because I’m the children’s grandmother.”


    Emmeline also raised her eyebrows and rebuked, “My children don’t have any grandparents, and


    neither do they have a father. You had better get out of here!”


    “Are you telling me to leave?” Julianna’s cheeks flushed with rage.


    “Why not? This is my turf!”


    “The door is right there,” Emmeline said, pointing to the entrance.


    Julianna refused to admit defeat, and she stated, “Are you saying the children have no father?”


    “As far as I’m concerned, they don’t. What’s the problem?” Emmeline shot back while cing her


    hands on her hips.


    Julianna stomped her feet in anger once more, “Are you a hermaphrodite then? You can have children


    without a man?”


    “That’s my business. It has nothing to do with you,” Emmeline pointed at the door again, “Get out!”


    Julianna started to throw a fit, saying, “Emmeline, you’ve told me to leave numerous times. Is that how


    a younger generation should treat their elders? Luckily, I have no intention of letting a woman like you


    into our home. Otherwise, the Meriwether Mansion would be turned upside down!”


    “Bah!” Sam stood in front of Emmeline and spit at Julianna, “What the heck is Meriwether Mansion or


    Kaliwether Mansion? Do you think Ms. Louise gives a damn about it?”
