The Quadruplets Are Mine? Chapter 250
“Fine! Let’s have a bet!” Adam smiled contemptuously.
“Great!” Emmeline said, “I’ll let you sell me off to some strange man if I fail to escape here. On the
contrary, if I succeed in escaping this place, you’re not allowed to bother me ever again! Otherwise, I’ll
use whatever means I can and give you hell!”
“Deal! However, I want you to join the Canary Project right away.”
Emmeline jutted her chin out and replied nonchalantly, “I have no issues with that. I don’t mind
becoming a healthier, more beautiful person anyway!”
At Nightfall Cafe.
Emmeline had not shown up at
the cafe even though it was almost time to pick the children up from school.
“Daisy, why don’t you stay here while I fetch the kids from school?” Sam suggested.
“You should give Ms. Louise a call first.” Daisy replied, “What if she’s already headed to the
kindergarten?”
“She didn’t take the car today. She left earlier on her motorcycle. She wouldn’t be able to pick up the
children with that.”
“Then, you take the car and fetch the children from the
kindergarten.” Daisy went on, “I’ll phone Ms. Louise and inform her about it.”
“Alright.” Sam took the car keys and left the shop.
Daisy took out her phone and dialed Emmeline’s number.
“The number you have dialed is temporarily unavailable…”
Unavailable? Did she turn off her phone? Or did the phone battery run out? This has never happened
with Ms. Louise, though…
Daisy tried to call Emmeline again, but she got the same response.
I feel a bit uneasy about this… Did something bad happen to Ms. Louise?
Daisy phoned Benjamin next. “Mr. Benjamin, are you with Ms. Louise right now?”
“No.” Benjamin replied, “I was just having a meeting. What’s the matter?”
“It seems like Ms. Louise’s phone has been turned off. She’s also not at the cafe even though it’s time
to pick up the children. I’m worried that something might have happened to her.”
“I’ll contact Abel and see if he knows where she is.”
Upon learning the news from
Daisy, Benjamin was gripped by a sense of panic.
Robert had asked me to watch over Emmeline and make sure that
nobody tries to harm her. If
something bad were to happen to her, I’d spend the rest of my life in agony and remorse!
Abel felt a little surprised when he received the call from Benjamin.

I’m getting a call from Benjamin?!
Something urgent must have come
up…
He quickly answered the phone. “Hello, Mr. Benjamin.”
“Mr. Abel, can I know if Emma is with you now?” Benjamin asked.
Abel fell silent as he was not sure how to respond to that.
Is he asking this because he has some sort of weird suspicions about us?
“I haven’t seen Emma. Why are you asking about that, Mr. Benjamin?”
“Are you sure you haven’t seen her today?”
“There’s no reason for me to lie to you about that.”
“That’s bad news.” A deep frown creased Benjamin’s forehead. “Something bad might have happened
to Emma.”
“What did you say?!” Abel asked in a raised voice, “Benjamin, explain what has happened to me!”
“I got a call from Daisy saying that Emma had not returned to the cafe even at this hour. Her phone
appears to have been turned off too.”
Abel furrowed his brows. “Emma has never been late to pick up the kids from kindergarten. She
seldom turned off her phone during the day as well.”
“I’m heading to the cafe now,” Benjamin declared in a grim voice.
“Me too.” Both of them hung up right after saying that.
Twenty minutes later, Benjamin and Abel got to Nightfall Cafe at around the same time.
Sam had returned to the cafe with the children. All three of them were doing their homework on the
second floor.
Benjamin asked, “Daisy, have you received any news from Emma?”
“What time did she leave from here? Where was she headed?” Abel followed up with another
question.
Daisy was rendered speechless by their bombardment of questions.
Sam heard them as he came down the stairs. He replied, “Ms. Louise went out at 2.00 pm today. She
said she was joining a race…
“A race?!” Benjamin and Abel exclaimed simultaneously.
“Emma has participated in motorcycle races before?” Abel knew that Emmeline could ride motorcycles
well. However, this was the first time he had learned about her joining races.
“Didn’t I tell her to stop joining those races? It’s very dangerous!” Benjamin frowned.The Quadruplets
Are Mine? Chapter 251
“It’s the one near Swan Lake.” Daisy said, “I think Ms. Louise found out about the place from the
internet.”
Upon hearing the name of the place, Benjamin and Abel
exchanged a quick glance. Then, both of them turned around and rushed out of the shop.
Forty minutes later, both of their cars pulled up at the race track near Swan Lake. There were traces of
a huge event taking place in that area prior to their arrival. However, the place was completely deserted
by the time they got there.
They even found Emmeline’s old motorcycle parked at the roadside.
Benjamin and Abel tried to look for new clues through their connections next. Soon enough, they
managed to get in touch with the organizer of the race.
That person told them that the young lady in a black outfit won first place twice. Then, she left the place
in an expensive-looking car.
Emmeline won first place twice?!
Abel could hardly believe his ear. Then, the thought of Emmeline missing filled him with endless
worry.
We just managed to get Timothy to return to us safely. Did Emmeline fall into the hands of those
involved in human trafficking this time?
That doesn’t make sense, though.
She has very decent fighting skills.
The race was held in the quiet outskirts. There were no surveillance cameras installed around the area.
Both men had a lost, anxious expression on their faces as they seemed to have come to a dead end in
their search for Emmeline.
Just then, the message
notification ringtone of Benjamin’s and Abel’s phones sounded.
Both men checked their phones and looked back at each other eventually.
“It’s news about Emma?” Abel began
“Mhm.” Benjamin nodded. “You received a message too?”
Abel replied, “It says that she’s safe. It even mentioned that we should wait patiently for more
news.’
”
Benjamin heaved a deep sigh. “Who would do something like this?”
“Emma… Where are you right now…” Abel muttered under his breath.
Benjamin’s brows drew together in a frown. “Ms. Louise… I hope you’re alright…”
Suddenly, both of them were struck with the same thought.
Emmeline’s disappearance was clearly premeditated. Could the person be targeting her three
children…
Abel called out in a steely voice, “We need to head back right now. All of this might have been the
culprit’s trick to distract us!”
Benjamin had gotten into his Bentley and started the engine before Abel could finish his
sentence.
Both of them sped all the way back and entered Nightfall Cafe. Fortunately, things appeared peaceful
inside the cafe. Still, Benjamin and Abel quickly went to the second floor to check how the children

were.
The children had just eaten their meals and were enjoying their playtime. Neither Daisy nor Sam had
told them that Emmeline was missing, so the kids thought that their mother was working at the
Alming studio.
When those two adult men came into the room in a rush, all three kids were slightly surprised by their
sudden appearance.
Sun dropped his toy.
Moon turned his gaze away from
the computer screen.
Star put down the book in his hands.
“Daddy!”
“Uncle Benjamin!”
All three kids greeted the men one by one.
“What are you doing?” Sun asked curiously.
“Was the big bad wolf chasing you two?” Moon asked.
“Was there a fire outside?” Star asked.
Yet, no one tried to answer their questions.
Abel took a few big strides toward the children. Then, he stretched out his arms to hold all of them in
his embrace.
However, he only managed to hold Sun and Star. Benjamin managed to snatch Star away since the
child was sitting a bit further away from the other two kids.
“Daddy! Uncle Benjamin! What are you two doing?” Those three kids asked almost simultaneously in
surprise.
I’m taking all of you to my place.” Abel shot a glare at Benjamin. “Please hand Moon over to me!”
“Why should do that?” Benjamin retorted, “They should stay with me instead!”
“They are coming with me! I’m their dad!” Abel said furiously.
“You’re not really their dad! In fact, you and I are not that different!”
“Still, the three of them call me Daddy!”
“Well, they call me Uncle
Benjamin!”
“You are aware that there’s a great
difference between calling
someone dad and calling
someone uncle, right?”
Benjamin was rendered speechless by Abel’s illogical claims.

“Which race track did she go to?”
