Ambush of the Quadruplets novel Chapter 1255

“Oh, sure!” Jennie did not expect Waylon to agree to her invitation, she continued, “I will give Doris a call now.”

Waylon said, “Remember to send me the location after you have made the reservation; I will pick Doris

“Alright! Let’s meet at the Struyria Banquet! I will leave Doris to you.”

Waylon hung up the call and texted Emmeline, “I am busy.”

Emmeline checked her mailbox; she was confused by Waylon’s reply. What does he mean? Does he not care that Mr. Thomas is here for Doris?

Emmeline was worrying while Doris came downstairs. She said, “Emma, can I leave earlier today?”

Emmeline thought to herself, Did Mr. Thomas text Doris that he was here? Did he tell her that he was waiting for her?

Just when Emmeline was still debating whether to grant the leave, Doris continued, “Jennie won the divorce lawsuit. She invited Mr. Adelmar for dinner. I am joining them.”

Emmeline hurriedly said, “Sure, you may leave early today! Send my regards to Jennie!” Did Waylon send those texts on purpose? Is he trying to act calm? I bet he knew about Jennie’s lawsuit when I texted him!

Daniel stood up and said, “Doris, I am here. I am waiting for you to get off work.”

Doris was surprised. “Mr. Daniel, why are you here?”

“I have been here for a while. I didn’t intend to disturb you when you were working.”

Doris said hesitantly, “I apologize, Mr. Daniel. You should have heard it; I have a date with my sister tonight.”

Daniel said, “I did. You should join your sister; I am always available. We could do it another day.”

Doris smiled and said, “I am sorry to have kept you waiting.”

Daniel pointed at the table and said, “Don’t worry about it; it hasn’t been long. I haven’t had my dessert yet.”

Sam said from the side, “I could pack it for you; it won’t go to waste.”

Doris-replied, “That’s great.”

Daniel took the coffee and dessert that were packed by Sam and left in satisfaction.

Emmeline thought to herself, We had blocked the date for tonight, but we failed to stop the date on the day after tomorrow. Waylon, you must hurry up!

Waylon came to the Nightfall Cafe after Daniel had left. Emmeline saw him across the road. He opened the door, and she pretended she had just noticed him.

She said exaggeratedly, “Wow, look! Someone is here!”

Waylon snorted and flicked her forehead, saying, “Stop playing dumb. You should have seen me crossing the road.”

“I didn’t; I was too busy with my stuff. You appeared out of nowhere!” Emmeline laughed.

“Naughty!” Waylon looked at her softly.

Emmeline said playfully, “Are you here for Doris?”
