Chapter 502

Emily peeked inside and after thinking about it, she finally followed her younger son.

The couple had reunited after being apart for so many days, and it happened to be Valentine's Day today.

It was probably time for her to step down after today. She would leave her son to her daughter-in-law from this day

onward.

Since Dylan didn't like banquets, the Coleman Family didn't hold a party for him even though it was his birthday.

The Colemans only briefly celebrated it by preparing gifts for him, sending him their wishes, and having a meal

together with the entire family.

He didn't invite his closest friends to the simple celebration. Dylan said his birthday happened to be on Valentine's

Day, and it was a day everyone wanted to spend with their other halves.

"Yoseph."

"Yeah, Mom?"

"How are things between you and Jane? Have you confessed to her?"

Yoseph let out a bashful giggle. "I haven't."

That brought a frown to Emily's face. "What's the matter with you, you brat? You like her. You're practically

childhood sweethearts. It's been such a long time, but you still haven't confessed?"

"Mom, I haven't finished my words yet." He smiled. "I didn't confess my feelings to her, but she has confessed to

me. I accepted her feelings."

Despite his words, Emily still reached out to twist his earlobe. "You're a man, but you're letting her make the first

move?!"

"Mom! Be gentle! Not too hard! Jane will make fun of me if she sees this. I'll be so embarrassed. Men and women

are equal, so it's the same no matter who makes the first move. It's not like I rejected her. Don't worry, Mom. I

won't let your future daughter-in-law run away."

Although Jane asked him to pursue her and let her have a taste of what it was like to be pursued, that was how they

kept things fun between them.

"Mom, you should be pressuring your third child instead."

Matthew, who had just woken up, suddenly sneezed.

"It's not like any of you listen to me." Emily let go of Yoseph's ear. "You're all grown up now. What's the point in

persuading you to do anything?"

Yoseph peeked at his mother's expression. When he saw that she was not angry, he smiled and said, "Actually,

there is no need for you to tell us to get married. We will marry when we want to get married. You can't make us

get married if we don't want to. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink, can you? Mom, you

should go on a trip with Dad and enjoy a peaceful time together instead."

Emily huffed when she heard that. "And I want a granddaughter."

He immediately fell silent when his mother started pushing him to have children.

Yoseph and Jane had laid it bare about how they wouldn't get married any time soon. Even if they did get married,

they had no plans to include a child in their life. No matter what, they wanted to spend time with only each other for

at least two years.

Anyhow, he was the second son. He had an elder brother whom their mother could nag to have a child instead.

"Your younger cousin-in-law gave birth to her second child a few days ago, and it's a daughter! Your uncle and his

wife were so gloomy because of that. I was so tempted to bring the baby back when I went to visit. I don't

understand why your uncle would be unhappy about having an adorable granddaughter. Girls are loved in our

family!"

The Coleman Family had had no daughter for the last five generations.

Alice was the only princess from this generation, and she was treated like a treasure.

Emily, who could only wish for more girls in the family, couldn't help complaining about how her brother preferred

having a grandson to a granddaughter.

Hearing that, Yoseph quickly echoed, "Yes, I agree. Daughters are adorable! I'll even laugh in my sleep if Jane and I

have a daughter in the future. But Mom, don't blame Uncle. He has three sons himself, but my cousin's wife has

only given birth to daughters so far. How can he not panic when he hasn't got even one grandson?"

The Colemans might not be a patriarchal family, but that didn't mean other families were the same as theirs.

Emily huffed at that. "But he shouldn't lose his temper at his daughter-in-law regardless of the baby's gender! It's all

up to men, anyway, so why is your uncle's wife giving the lady the stink face?"

If Emily hadn't gone back to her parental home to visit her nephew and nephew-in-law who had just given birth to

their second child, and seen her sister-in-law's bad attitude, she wouldn't have known how much her nephew and

nephew-in-law had suffered. She had scolded her brother and sister-in-law then.

Even though Emily's parental family was also wealthy, they weren't comparable to the Colemans. In addition, her

nephew wasn't as brilliant as her son. Sutton Co. had to rely heavily on Coleman Empire Holdings in business.

Therefore, Emily was an influential person in her natal family. Her words were the law, and her brother and sister-

in-law didn't dare to go against her.

"Yes, yes. My cousin's the one who should be blamed. Mom, don't worry. I will not complain about it if my wife gives

birth to a daughter in the future. I will even set off firecrackers to celebrate and hold a big feast for three whole

days. Don't be angry, Mom."

Emily could only look at her son while holding back her laughter.

She was indeed fuming when she entered her parental home, only to hear her sister-in-law telling her nephew to

get a woman outside his marriage to have a son with.

Fortunately, her nephew could think for himself and he immediately said no. The mother and son even argued until

they saw Emily enter the house.

"I'm glad that I married your father and took his name. I wasn't poisoned with that kind of patriarchal toxicity."

Women who married into the Coleman Family didn't have to go through anything like that because they were short

of women here.

As Emily and Yoseph chatted, they slowly got further from the place Dylan and Kendall were at.

Unfortunately for Amelia, her Valentine's Day wasn't as romantic as her married friend's.

Amelia had been forced to stay at the Mendelson Residence last night because she didn't manage to finish counting

the money.

Brandon and Ethan came to bring Amelia back in person, but Frank refused to let her go. He only let the father and

son take a quick look at Amelia to prove that she would not be harmed in the slightest.

Ah, does counting money to the point my hands went limp count as me being harmed? Amelia grumbled to herself.

She was initially looking forward to being rescued by her father and brother, but she ended up disappointed. After

seeing her, her father and brother were invited to the second floor to meet Frank. For some reason, they left after

that.

And so, she had no choice but to stay and count the money.

It went on until midnight when she finally succumbed to sleep's temptation.

By the time she woke up, it was already 9.00AM and her tummy was rumbling from hunger.

She immediately shot up when she noticed how she was in a bed instead of the sofa in the living room.

The first thing she did was check her clothes. To her relief, she was still wearing the same clothes she wore

yesterday.

I was worried about nothing again.

Frank's obsessed with Kendall. He won't do anything to me.

Maybe he will when the sun comes up from the west someday.

Knock, knock.

A knock came on the door then.

"Ms. Taylor, are you up?"

It was Desmond's voice that rang out.

As Amelia woke up in her clothes, she didn't need to change into anything else. The only thing was that her hair was

like a messy nest.

"I'm up, Mr. Desmond. Is something the matter?" she replied.

Hearing that, the man asked from behind the door again, "Are you not hungry, Ms. Taylor?"

"I am!"

"I'm here to bring you downstairs for breakfast. Master has been waiting for you for more than an hour now."

Frank usually had breakfast at 7.30AM.

Desmond could only imagine how hungry Frank was, now that it was 9.00AM.

Amelia swiftly froze when she heard that. Frank's waiting for me?

Did the sun rise from the west today?

She promptly got out of bed and after getting a comb to comb through her hair and doing a simple freshening up,

she left the room.

Desmond was still outside waiting for her when she went out.
