“Um,” she admitted.
“That was indeed your real uncle, the one Spence personally
brought from Fastye. But Spence stayed back at Fastye, seems
like he’s dealing with some shady stuff for Finley, Lucas said.
“Finley knows about your family, but deliberately kept it a
secret. He wants to keep you in the Pierce family, it’s actually
quite thoughtful of him.”
“It was quite thoughtful of her.” Adelaide tightened her grip on
the phone. “Lucas, do you happen to know what Spencer was
helping Finley with at Fastye?”
“I really don’t know about this, the person sent out hasn’t given
any updates yet. Don’t worry, I’ll let you know once there’s any
news.”
“Thanks.” Finally, she said, “Amanda has been secretly sent to Correctional Facility, Finley will definitely be crushed by this. It’s a good opportunity to shake up the stock market for the
Hicks Group, right?”
Lucas chuckled, “This is indeed a good opportunity, thanks for letting me know in time, Adelaide.”
“You’re welcome.”
After finishing his meal in the ward, Reginald’s IV drip was also
finished. He didn’t want to stay in the hospital for another
minute, so he pulled out the needle and left right away.
Overnight, the internet was buzzing.
Teresa couldn’t stop giggling, sharing gossip with Adelaide.
“Who would just happen to pass by the Correctional Facility
and snap a picture of Amanda being taken in?”
“It’s not a coincidence, it should be Lucas.””
“Hey?” Teresa’s eyes lit up, smelling the scent of gossip.
Adelaide admitted that she was the one who told Lucas about
Amanda going to the Correctional Facility.
Teresa held a fork against her chin and said, “Looks like Mr.
Bradshaw really hates the Pierce family.”
“Finley got his hands on the Bradshaw family business, no hate
involved.”
“Definitely,” Teresa continued to smile, “As long as that lunatic
gets what’s coming to him, sis is happy.”
She was happy too.
On the way to work, she received good news from Lucas, saying
that this incident caused the Hicks Group to lose two billion
overnight. Right now, Finley is in a panic at the company.
probably not even having time to think about how to rescue
Amanda.
When Adelaide arrived, her colleagues surrounded her with
care and concern, making her feel comforted and touched.
Until it was time to leave work, everyone dispersed. Jorge then
came over and said, “Ms. Pierce, the preliminary list is out, and
both of us are on it. The organizers have notified that the list
members will gather at Dream Restaurant at 7 o’clock tonight.
Can you make it? If not, it’s best to let our boss know, I can go
instead.”
“I’m out.”
Adelaide had nothing going for her. She got divorced and had a
falling out with the Pierce family. Now she needs to focus on
her work and not be seen as a fake heiress of the Pierce family
or Garrett’s ex–girlfriend in the future.
At the team meeting, Reginald didn’t show up, Nathan filled in
instead.
Nathan sat in the chief seat, explaining, “Today Mr. Thorton has
some personal matters and his arrival time is uncertain. So if
you have any issues, just come to me directly. Okay, let’s start
the meeting.”
Chapter 202
At the same time, the Thorton’s villa.
Byron Thorton and his wife got off the plane and immediately called Reginald, who was still sleeping.
He was ordered to return to the old house immediately.
The two brothers have always been close since they were
young, they won’t end up like those melodramatic family
dramas, fighting over inheritance and becoming enemies.
Byron got married early on and settled abroad with his wife,
mainly in charge of the Thorton family’s overseas business.
