Ambush of the Quadruplets
Chapter 1068 Who Is Number Seventeen

Sam raised her hand, "I am the second one!"

Janie said, "Then who should we choose? I don't remember you being close with any men who could make Abel jealous!"

Emmeline smiled smugly and said, "My interpersonal relationship was so simple; you guys can't do anything to me now!"

Doris said, "How about this? We randomly choose someone from your contacts."

Sam clapped her hand and said, "That's a good idea! I agree."

"Me too." Janie nodded.

"Heh, I didn't know you guys would come up with this idea! It seems that I can't run away from this."

Doris pointed at herself proudly and said, "That's right! I did a good job!"

"Just tell me what to do! I am not running away." Emmeline said.

"Let's see. How about the person who's number seventeen in Emma's contact list?"

Sam said, "Great idea! Ms. Louise will send 'I miss you' to this 'number seventeen guy', even if this is a delivery man!"

"Oh no! I don't have any delivery men in my contacts!" Emmeline said.

Doris laughed and said, "Stop acting foolish. Let's see who is number seventeen on your list!"

Emmeline went through her contacts and said, "No matter who it is! I accept the challenge!"

"Eleven, twelve, thirteen..." "Fifteen, sixteen, seventeen. Here we go!"

"Father Maxwell Louise?" Sam, Doris, and Janie shouted.

Emmeline lost her words. Looking at this contact, sadness hit her suddenly. Father? He never cared about me. I am nothing in his eyes. It's been a long time, and I still can't help but feel bitter.

Doris had no idea what had happened between them. "Emma, that's quite a good choice. We rarely get any chance to say, 'I miss you," to our parents." Janie and Sam looked at each other helplessly; they knew Maxwell had not treated Emmeline like a daughter in the past.

Emmeline sniffed, but she still agreed to send the message 'I miss you' to her father. "I will do it now!" She thought to herself, What would he do when he received this message? I bet he would just ignore it, thinking I had made a mistake sending this to him. Doris, Janie, and Sam all got replies; if I don't, I can't help but feel devastated. Not to mention that he is my father; he should be my closest someone in the world, isn't it?

Emmeline tried to change the subject: "Let's not waste any time; dig in, please!"

Sam comforted Emmeline and said, "Ms. Louise, I think your father figure should be Master Adelmar. You have mentioned to me before that you wouldn't be you now without Master Adelmar! He saved your life and the triplets'; you should look up to Master Adelmar instead of your father."

Emmeline almost shed her tears, but her phone rang before she could say anything. No way! Would Maxwell call me? She quickly picked up the phone and was shocked to replace out that it was Ethan. "Hello, Ethan?"

Ethan asked, "Emma, is everything alright?"

Emmeline tried to hold back her tears. "Why do you ask so?"

Ethan replied, "It's my father. He said he received a message from you, but Mrs. Lane is by his side. He didn't want any trouble, so he wanted me to check on you."

Emmeline had mixed feelings about her father. He didn't forget about his daughter; he just couldn't make time for her. Should I be grateful? At least he got Ethan to check on me. I am doing fine, but somehow I miss my father. "Everything's alright here. Thanks for asking, brother. I had sent the message to the wrong number; it's not meant for him."
