Chapter195Â
“Finley was furious, with veins bulging on his neck.”Â
As soon as she heard that she was being called mentally ill,Â
Amanda got upset and said, “Adelaide, you can’t say I’mÂ
mentally ill, I’m perfectly fine!”Â
Adelaide laughed even harder and asked Julius, “Mr. Shaffer,Â
she said she’s doing fine. Should we make a note of this just in case the judge decides to handle her as mentally ill?”Â
“Sure.”Â
With Julius‘ affirmative answer, Amanda got so anxious thatÂ
she started tapping her legs on the bed, “Dad, Mom.“”Â
“Finley!” Jeanette shouted impatiently.Â
Finley narrowed his eyes and stared at Adelaide ominously,Â
trying to stay calm, “Adele, are you willing to cut ties with us?”Â
Upon hearing this, Adelaide knew he was about to startÂ
moralizing.Â
She looked straight at him and said, “Dad, I still call you that outÂ
of respect and a desire to resolve things amicably.”Â

Finley gradually became angry, “Do you think you can justÂ
walk away from the 25 years of kindness I’ve given you?”Â
Adelaide replied, “Isn’t giving you my new husband for yourÂ
own daughter enough? Well, I know, there’s also the moneyÂ
spent on me for the past twenty–five years. Mr. Shaffer, pleaseÂ
help me settle the accounts”Â
“Okay”Â
After saying that, she asked back, “Dad, is this okay?”Â
Finley’s lips trembled in anger, no longer patient, “Do you thinkÂ
getting a lawyer will definitely put Amanda in jail?”Â
I knew he would do this again. Adelaide calmly said, “YouÂ
probably don’t know yet, Mr. Thornton lives downstairs. He isÂ
not only a witness, but also a victim.”Â
When this was said, Finley, Jeanette, and Spencer all had aÂ
change of face. Only Amanda was awakened, recalling theÂ
scene of Reginald grabbing the short sword bare–handed.Â
“Mr. Thorton got hurt?” Finley was surprised, obviously had noÂ
idea about it. He suddenly glared at Amanda, “Why didn’t youÂ
tell me about Mr. Thorton getting hurt?”Â
“I…….Â
Seeing her hemming and hawing like that, Finley was about toÂ
Chapter195Â
blow a gasket.Â
“Dad, why don’t you sit down and talk, I’m afraid you’ll pass outÂ
from anger, we can deal with this later.” Adelaide showed filialÂ
piety without being cold.Â
Finley almost spit out his drink when he heard that.Â
Adelaide was standing there, absolutely owning it.Â
Just one injured Reginald was enough to scare Finley to death.Â
She kept asking persistently, “Dad, have you made up yourÂ
mind? Is it to send her to jail or kick me out of the PierceÂ
family?”Â
Finley opened his mouth and found that Julius was holding aÂ
voice recorder. In an instant, he was speechless.Â
That fire just hovered in my chest, neither rising nor falling.Â
I almost choked him to death.Â
Just then, Finley’s phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID andÂ
his eyes lit up. He was too busy to answer the phone. “What’sÂ
up?”Â
Seeing this, Adelaide squinted her eyes.Â
“Really? Hmm, just bring it over, Room 42 on the 10th floor ofÂ
Chapter105Â
the General Hospital.”Â
When the phone hung up, Finley’s pale face turned into a smile,Â
looking at Adelaide with a triumphant look, “Adele, haven’t you always wanted to find your real family? Your uncle has beenÂ
found, he’s on his way here. You must want to meet him, right?”Â
Adelaide was frozen in place, unable to make any reaction.Â
Dear uncle…?Â
Outside, Nathan’s face changed suddenly when he heard it.Â
I thought Ms. Pierce had it in the bag, but Finley had an ace upÂ
his sleeve.Â
He had to go find the boss right away.Â
