Chapter 1153 I Just Want My Innocence Back
"Slap! Slap!"
The silence in the room was deafening.
"Slap! Slap!"
The silence in the room was deafening.
Glenn felt like his face had been slapped hard.
After a moment of contemplation, he nodded with a somber expression, "I understand."
Abel picked up his wine glass, raised it, and drank the wine in one go. Then he turned and left.
The following day, Emmeline arrived early at the Nightfall Cafe.
It was open for business, but she was not in the best mood.
The most important thing for her was to vent her grievances and clear her name, so she could finally feel at ease.
Abel parked the Rolls Royce in the parking lot and took Emmeline's hand as they walked into the Nightfall Cafe.
Pushing open the glass door, they saw Benjamin and Janie inside.
Both were wearing aprons and busy arranging tables and chairs.
Upon seeing Emmeline and Abel, the four waiters bowed and greeted them.

Abel nodded in acknowledgment, and Emmeline smiled and waved her hand, "Hello, everyone! You've all worked
hard!"
"Emma," Janie took Emmeline's hand, "Why didn't you tell me what happened that day?"
"Why should I tell you?" Emmeline playfully pinched Janie's cheek, "It's already a mess."
"I could have scolded them for you," Janie raised an eyebrow, "You know, I'm really good at scolding people using
my dialect!"
"Haha!" Emmeline laughed, "That's fine. Whenever I see injustice, I'll let you yell at them and show off your skills in
your dialect!"
"Just wait and see, I'll give them a piece of my mind!" Janie said confidently.
"Sam is to blame for this whole matter," Benjamin chimed in, "If you had told me earlier, I would have stepped in
immediately. Little did I know that Abel had already taken care of it."
"Mr. Benjamin," Sam pouted with a hint of annoyance, "Mr. Abel was there that day, and you know how two strong
personalities can clash."
"It's all right," Abel smiled, "I handled it the same way Mr. Benjamin would have!"
Doris, wearing a large apron, came down from upstairs and greeted Emmeline with a warm smile, "Ms. Louise,
welcome back."
"Thank you, Doris."
Emmeline took Doris' hand and asked, "Doris, I haven't had a chance to ask you yet, did you help Waylon that day
at Blue Sky Villa?"
Doris blushed, "Mr. Adelmar helped me."
"Ah?" Emmeline was surprised, "Why did it turn out the other way around?"
Doris briefly explained, "If Mr. Adelmar hadn't intervened and resolved the situation, I would have been the one
humiliated."
"Hahaha!" Emmeline laughed, "So you and my brother get along so well."
Doris blushed again and felt a bit awkward.
Indeed, they had quite a humorous dynamic.
Emmeline had not seen Waylon in action, he would persist until the end, no matter what!
Everyone continued talking and laughing joyfully, and the glasses were filled again.
Then, the woman who caused trouble that day, along with her original group, returned to the cafe.
Emmeline frowned, and Sam was ready to step in to handle the situation.
Janie and Doris also stood confidently with their hands on their hips, ready to give a piece of their mind.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOnly Abel and Benjamin remained calm, smoking casually.
A group of women entered the cafe, with the entertainment reporter among them, the one who had live-streamed
the incident that day.
Seeing Emmeline's expression, the fat woman quickly put on a smile and said, "Ms. Emmeline, please don't
misunderstand. Today, my sisters and I are here to apologize to you."
Emmeline was taken aback. Apologize?
Upon hearing this, Sam eased his stance and stopped preparing to intervene.
Doris and Janie also lowered their hands from their hips.
"We not only apologize in person but also plan to broadcast our apology nationwide!" The fat woman nodded and
bowed, "So, Ms. Emmeline, can you find it in your heart to forgive us?"
"Yeah, yeah!"
The other women chimed in, "We were manipulated that day. We've come to realize our mistake, and we sincerely
apologize to Ms. Louise. Please forgive us."
Emmeline replied, "All I want is for my innocence to be restored. I won't hold a grudge against those who genuinely
apologize, but I won't let the instigators off the hook either!"
