Chapter 299


    Julianna eximed in surprise, "Adrien? You were shot. Why are you not recuperating in the hospital,


    as you should be?"


    Adrien said angrily, "If my bodyguard hadn''t told me, I would still be in the dark. Who gave you


    permission to bully Emmeline and the children?"


    Julianna exined, "Son, don''t be a fool. I''m doing this for your sake. I''ll get those children back for you


    right now!"


    "I wouldn''t do something like that! Why should I take those kids away from Emmeline, who went


    through so much to raise them?"


    Julianna roared, "Have you lost your mind? They''re your children!"


    Adrien pushed his mother away and stood in front of Emmeline, saying, "They are also Emma''s


    children. Anyway, I won''t allow anyone to bully them, not even you!"


    Adrien''s unexpected arrival caught Emmeline off guard. He even confronted his mother to defend her


    and the kids. Her heart raced as she noticed how masculine and righteous his demeanor seemed.


    "Emma, don''t be afraid."


    Adrien wrapped his uninjured arm around Emmeline and said, "I''ll look out for you and the kids. I


    wouldn''t let anyone bully you, not even my own mother!"


    Julianna roared in rage, "Adrien, what has gotten into you today?"


    For the first time, Julianna noticed her son taking himself very seriously, like a proper man. She was not


    used to it. She was used to her son listening to her.


    "Adrien, you can have the kids, but not this woman. Granddad is right. Emmeline is a femme fatale who


    would cause disaster. Look at how she''s getting you and Abel into trouble. Especially Abel, who lost


    300 million and is still unsure how to make it up. His position as CEO is at stake!"


    Adrien said, "Abel did it to save Emma. Even though I don''t have much money, I can stille up with


    between 70 and 80 million dors in cash. I''ll support Abel."


    "Abel is a foe of yours. You and your older brother are at odds with him. How can you be confused?


    How can you help him?"


    Adrien said, "I know what I''m doing. Abel is my enemy, and he fights with me to get my woman, but he


    also saved Emma, so he''s my benefactor."


    "You''re driving me crazy!"


    Julianna stamped her foot in a fit of rage. Her useless son had suddenly be capable, but he


    picked her as his first target!

    Emmeline was half lying in Adrien''s arms. She was taken aback by what she heard.


    Adrien had earned everyone''s respect. Was this man the same yboy who used to fool around with


    women?


    The ss door was pushed open, and Benjamin rushed in with several bodyguards. His men had


    taken down Julianna''s bodyguards in less than a second.


    Sam was able to free herself as well. She engaged in a one-on-two battle, and although she did not get


    the upper hand, she managed to tie in with her adversaries. She was unable to assist Emmeline, but


    once she managed to free herself, she kicked Adrien in a fury.


    At the same time, Sam yelled, "Let go of Ms. Louise!"


    She had been giving the fight with the bodyguards her full attention at first. Adrien''sment went


    unnoticed by her. Sam was infuriated when she saw Adrian annoyingly embrace Emmeline.


    Ben casually waved his hand and moved aside to deflect Sam''s powerful kick.


    Sam chided angrily, "Mr. Benjamin, why are you stopping me from attacking this scoundrel?"


    "Things have changed," Benjamin exined.


    He had heard Adrien''s earlier reprimand of Julianna and promised to protect Emmeline. Benjamin had


    the sudden impression that this yboy who sat around all day might not be all bad.


    Julianna''s expression darkened due to her intense rage. She said to convince her son, "Adrien, you


    saw it yourself. Emmeline has hooked up with Abel and Mr. Benjamin from Adelmar Group. How on


    earth could you defend such a woman?"


    Adrien refuted, "This is my business. Please don''t meddle in my affairs. Just go!"


    "Adrien!"


    Adrien waved his hand impatiently and said, "Please go! You should go now. If there is anything else,


    we can discuss it at home."


    "Hmph!" Julianna red at Emmeline and stormed off in a rage.


    Julianna was quickly followed by Yvonne and the two stumbling bodyguards.


    Daisy hade back at this point. She noticed the mess and Adrien''s presence next to Emmeline as


    soon as she walked into the cafe. Daisy charged forward and gave Adrien a hard p across the face


    without saying a word.
