Chapter 1365 Don’t Let Anything Happen to Mom

“Focus on your work.” Abel chuckled. “I’m also taking risks here; I might end up back in the pre-

liberation

cra.”

“I have mixed feelings. Emmeline furrowed her brow. It’s really frustrating.”

“Don’t worry about me,” Abel said. “You being okay is enough to reassure me.”

When they returned home, Kimberly was still busy in the kitchen, and Maxwell had also returned.

“Is it me or have you lost some weight?” Maxwell asked Abel, and they exchanged a pack of

cigarettes.

“I’m constantly out in the market, no time to rest,” Abel said.

“How are the results?” Dad inquired again.

“Dad,” Emmeline chimed in. “Abel is planning to make a big change and become a big boss!”

“What do you mean?” Maxwell furrowed his brow.

“Abel plans to take over a factory and start a parts company.”

Maxwell’s frown deepened. “Abel, I brought you out when you were in your teens. For you to achieve

your current level isn’t easy. You can’t mess around!”

“Don’t worry, Uncle Maxwell. I know what I’m doing.”

“What you’re doing now is good enough,” Maxwell said. Find a wife in the coming year and have a

child; live a good life, and I’ll be reassured.”

Find a wife and have a child… Abel thought. Should my goal be that simple?

“Abel, why didn’t you tell us you were coming home?” Kimberly came out. “I would have made taquitos

for you!”

“I’ll come home when I feel like having taquitos,” Abel replied. “Is the medicine prescribed by the doctor

at City Hospital working well for you, Aunt Kimberly?”

“It helps a bit; I can get some intermittent sleep,” she said.

Just then, the doorbell rang, and Kimberly opened the door as their neighbor, Ms. Maggie, breezed in.

“The young man from last time, Albus, is at my house right now, and he brought a bunch of gifts with

him, saying he’s here to see Emma.”

“Why would he?!” Emmeline was immediately angry. “We barely met, and he thinks he can just come

over?!”

“Emma, when you were out last time, I had a chat with him,” Kimberly explained. “He’s a nice guy, and

his parents are actually your dad and my wedding witnesses!”

“What does that have to do with me?” Emmeline pouted. “I don’t want to see him!”

“You child. I told him he could come over for tea sometime.” NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

“Don’t drag me into your decisions!” Emmeline was on the verge of tears.

“Emma, please listen…” Abel felt a pang in his heart and tried to hold back his sadness.

“You’re out of your mind!” Emmeline’s tears welled up in her eyes. “If you want to see him, see him.

yourself!”

She opened the door and rushed out, running down the stairs with heavy steps.

“Emma!” Abel hurriedly followed, catching up to her in a few large strides and grabbing her arm.

“Let go of me!” Emmeline was furious. “You want me to meet that guy? Don’t you find it disgusting?”

“Emma, Aunt Kimberly has poor health!” Abel furrowed his brows. “Don’t upset her.”

Emmeline instantly lost her composure. She went blank momentarily, then crouched down and burst

into tears. She wasn’t afraid to meet that inexplicable person, but she was genuinely afraid of her

mother’s mental state.

“Listen, you should let your mom calm down first.” Abel crouched beside her, holding onto her trembling

shoulders.

Emmeline looked up with teary eyes. “Tell me, what should I do?”

“First, go back home.”

“But, Abel.” Emmeline furrowed her brows. “I can’t bear to meet that guy. Can you?”

Abel fell silent.

“Abel!” Emmeline became anxious.

“Of course, I can’t!” Abel finally admitted.

“In that case, I won’t go back!”

“Emma, listen to me.” Abel looked into her eyes.

“Okay.” Emmeline nodded, sensing that something wasn’t right.

“The senior doctor at City Hospital said Mom might have schizophrenia, and she can’t handle any

stress.” Abel’s gaze became somewhat melancholic.

“You’re lying to me!” Emmeline stood up abruptly. “You only said that to make me go back, didn’t you?

You’re lying to me, aren’t you?”

“Emma.” Abel’s expression was earnest. “have I ever lied to you? You know my feelings. You meeting

someone else feels like a stab in my heart, but right now. I’m worried about Aunt Kimberly!”

Emmeline felt a sense of unease. She nodded. “Alright, I’ll go back. I don’t want anything to happen to

Mom!”
