Chapter199
“She really needs to change for the better. This time she almost
killed me with a knife. Who knows what she might do next
time, maybe just randomly stab someone. Don’t you think so?”
Finley’s back teeth were almost crushed, “It’s time to pay
attention.””
He was almost bursting with anger, Adelaide just sneered, “And
thanks to Dad for finally finding my uncle after all the trouble.”
She bit really hard on this sentence.
Finley was still pretending to be kind, “Do you guys need Dad to
arrange a private room for dinner, so you can have a family
reunion?”
“No, I’ll go reunite with him myself.”
He wanted to dress up, and Adelaide agreed to act with him.
She wanted to see how long Finley planned to play this filial
piety act.
“You better contact the Correctional Facility quickly, I’m
leaving now,” Adelaide said, then grabbed Reginald’s sleeve and
they walked out of the ward.
Chapter199
Inside, Amanda was crying uncontrollably, saying don’t go.
But they had already taken the elevator down.
Adelaide’s mind was a mess, but you couldn’t tell from her
expression. After a moment in the elevator, she finally spoke:
“Mr. Thorton, can you give me Franklin?”
Reginald asked, “Do an appraisal?”
Adelaide nodded.
“Let’s just do it right here,” said Reginald. And as soon as he
finished speaking, Nathan was already calling the people below.
A few minutes later, the blood–drawing area opened a green
channel. Adelaide and Franklin both had a few tubes of blood
drawn at the same time.
Franklin was beaten so badly that even his parents could hardly
recognize him.
When I saw Reginald, my legs were shaking like crazy.
I was lying on the ground, shouting, “I’m dying, I’m dying,
doctor, help me!”
He didn’t want to be dragged down and beaten up again.
Intuition told Adelaide that she might actually be related to this
Chapter199
person. And he was like a very dangerous time bomb.
“I’ll take care of the hospital admission procedures for you,” she
said. As soon as she spoke, Franklin’s cry abruptly stopped, but he still held his bruised and swollen face.
Mumbling in his mouth: “Still got a little conscience.”
Reginald was about to ask Nathan to take the people downstairs
for a meal again, but Adelaide was quick to act and pulled him
out quickly.
“Alright, are you going to drag me back to Rosecliff Manor?”
Reginald said irritably.
“I have to wait for you to finish the IV drip and have dinner
before going back,” Adelaide said kindly.
Reginald changed the subject: “I’ll take care of that person for
you, what are you afraid of.”
Adelaide denied, “I didn’t.””
Reginald told her, “Adelaide, even if he is really your relative,
you can’t have anything to do with this kind of person,
understand?”
“I get it,” Adelaide confessed, “Before, Finley deliberately kept
me from reuniting with my family, but now he intentionally
brought Franklin here at this critical moment. It’s hard not to
Chapter199
think that he has ulterior motives. So I just wanted to figure out
what he did to interfere with my search for relatives.”
Reginald wasn’t very satisfied with this explanation.
“Mr. Thorton, you helped me again,” Adelaide smoothly
changed the subject, with a smile on her lips.
In Reginald’s eyes, he only noticed the swollen handprint on
Adelaide’s face, which really pissed him off.
That person was really asking for it.
Reginald didn’t say anything, he just held her hand and led her
back to the ward.
Adelaide hurriedly said, “Um…“.
“I had Nathan arrange a hospital room for him, and had
someone watch him 24 hours a day.“”
