ought here by the Pierce family, he hadn’t even looked at everyone in the hospital room yet, he just focused his gaze on Adelaide.
He had his mouth open, with his hand pointing at Adelaide.
The whole person started to get excited.
He rushed up to Adelaide, looking her up and down, left and
right, “Like, totally looks like! She’s like a spitting image of my
sister!”
“Are you Adelaide? I’m your uncle, Franklin, your uncle!”
Franklin was wearing a nearly washed–out gray suit jacket,
with dark skin, a diagonal scar on his right eye, a buzz cut,
looking like a street thug.
He couldn’t contain his excitement, grabbing Adelaide’s arms
with both hands and shaking them vigorously, “Call me uncle,
come on, call me uncle.”
Julius thought Adelaide must have been scared, so he kindly
said, “Sir, you scared Ms. Pierce.”
Franklin’s eyes were like a snake’s, and he said unhappily, “Who
Chapter196
do you think you are, interrupting our family reunion.”
Adelaide quickly calmed down, raised her hands, struggled to
break free from Franklin’s grip, “Are you sure I’m your niece?”
“Of course, damn right. You’re practically cut from the same
cloth as my own sister, you’re definitely her biological
daughter.” The tone was rough and vulgar, full of street talk.
“Okay, just wait for me to take care of some personal matters,
then we’ll go do a paternity test later.” Adelaide didn’t believe
that Finley was her son just because Franklin said she looked
? exactly like him.
Especially at this critical moment.
Franklin felt really uncomfortable with the way he was being
cold to his niece, but he decided to hold back for now,
considering that the Pierce family was wealthy and his niece
was so pretty.
Adelaide knew this was a good deal by Finley, but she wouldn’t
miss this opportunity.
“Adele, why don’t you reunite with your uncle first. We can
talk about this later,” Finley smiled kindly.
“No, things have to be done in order after all.” Adelaide won’t be
fooled,” Dad, this is just a matter of one word from you. Have
you made up your mind?”
Chapter196
Finley regretted, “Adele, even though you’re not my biological
daughter, I’ve always treated you as my own. I can’t cut ties, I
just can’t do it.”
“What? Cut ties?” Franklin got angry on the spot, staring at
Adelaide, “You want to cut ties with the Pierce family? Cut
what ties, are you out of your mind? Leaving behind a fortune,
not enjoying wealth and prosperity?”
If you could see the calculations he was making in his head, I bet
he would have already exploded in Adelaide’s face by now.
No matter if he was really my uncle or not.
Based on his reaction now, Adelaide was sure he wasn’t a good
person.
Adelaide stayed calm: “Right now I can’t be sure if you’re really
my uncle, so you have no right to interfere in my affairs. Mr.
Larsen, please stay out of this.”
Franklin’s eye twitched, and he rolled up his sleeves, “Such a bad
temper.”
At this moment, Finley stepped forward and advised, “Mr.
Larsen, take it easy!”
Franklin was all smiles at him, after all, he was a cash cow. He
looked at Finley, then pointed to Adelaide, saying, “Sir Pierce, I
hope she hasn’t been playing tricks like this in the Pierce family
Chapter 196
all these years. Even though she’s not your own flesh and blood,
as the saying goes, raising a child is more important than giving
birth to one.”
