Evelyn said hurriedly, “Mr. Abel, work is more important; please leave it to me; I can look after
Granddad.”
“Okay.” He nodded, picked up his suit jacket, and left.
Oscar slammed the fork on the table and snorted, “This bastard is so freaking stubborn!”
“Grandda,” Evelyn said, “Emmeline was in danger; it was only natural that Mr. Abel was feeling upset.”
“Why should I be understanding?” Oscar snapped and said, “All she has done is give birth to the four
children and nothing more! She can never be better than you. What’s more, she’s dead now!”
Evelyn lowered her head and smiled. How can a dead woman compete with a rich lady like me? It
seems that I still have my chance with Abel as long as I’m on Old Mr. Ryker’s good side. No, not only
him! I also have to be on good terms with Abel’s parents and children!”
She quickly carried out her plan. The next time, she went to the kindergarten to pick up four of them.

“But we don’t know you,” Timothy looked up and asked, “Are you a human trafficker?”
“Of course not,” She squatted down and smiled lovingly, saying, “I’m best friends with your mom,
Emmeline. You all should address me as Auntie Evelyn .
“But we have never seen you together with mom,” Helios was said to be alerted. “How can we be sure
you’re her friend?”
“Yes,” Endymion said, “we won’t believe you before making sure of your real identity!”
“I agree with my brothers!” Hesperus said, “The four of us are not so easy to lie to!”
“I’m not lying to you all,” She smiled and said, “I’ll go to your house, and you all will know it once we
see your grandparents.”
“Grandad is coming to fetch us now,” Timothy asked. “Are you coming with us?”
She turned and saw Lewis coming down from his car; she had greeted him and his wife the other day.
And the two of them knew who she was; she once had a marriage agreement with Abel.
“Ms. Murphy?” Lewis was surprised to see her here, and he asked, “Why are you here?”
“Mr. Lewis,” she smiled gently and said, “I’m here to see the things; I’m Emmeline’s best friend after
all.”
“It’s so nice for you to miss the kids,” Lewis said. “Thanks for caring.”
“I’m devastated at what happened to Emmeline.”
“Grandad,” Helios asked, “is she really mom’s friend?”
“Yes,” he nodded and said, “we knew her.”
“So you’re really our mom’s friend,” Endymion said. “Sorry for misunderstanding you.”
“We always welcome Mom’s friend.” Hesperus said, “Auntie, nice to meet you.”
“I thought you were a human trafficker.” Timothy broke into a smile and asked, “So, you’re not one?”
“Are you terrified of the human trafficker?” She gently caressed his head and said, “I feel so sorry for

“Ms. Murphy,” Lewis said, “since you’re here, let’s go to our house to have lunch together. We’re no
strangers.”
“I was planning to,” she answered. “I already prepared the gifts to pay a visit.”
Half an hour later, her car followed Lewis’ car into his mansion.
She took a lot of gifts and toys from her car, and she also bought expensive food for Lewis and
Rosaline. Rosaline was happy to see her, and she pulled her to the sofa to have a talk.
“I’m best friends with Emmeline,” she said with reddened eyes. “Who would have thought something
like this could happen to her?”
“Don’t let the kids overhear our conversation,” Rosaline said. “They thought that Emmeline was at
Osea looking after their grandpa.”
“Osea?” She was shocked, and she asked, “Emmeline’s not dead? She’s at Osea?”
