“Um,” she admitted.Â
“That was indeed your real uncle, the one Spence personallyÂ
brought from Fastye. But Spence stayed back at Fastye, seemsÂ
like he’s dealing with some shady stuff for Finley, Lucas said.Â
“Finley knows about your family, but deliberately kept it aÂ
secret. He wants to keep you in the Pierce family, it’s actuallyÂ
quite thoughtful of him.”Â
“It was quite thoughtful of her.” Adelaide tightened her grip onÂ
the phone. “Lucas, do you happen to know what Spencer wasÂ
helping Finley with at Fastye?”Â
“I really don’t know about this, the person sent out hasn’t givenÂ
any updates yet. Don’t worry, I’ll let you know once there’s anyÂ
news.”Â
“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 theÂ
Hicks Group, right?”Â
Lucas chuckled, “This is indeed a good opportunity, thanks for letting me know in time, Adelaide.”Â
“You’re welcome.”Â
After finishing his meal in the ward, Reginald’s IV drip was alsoÂ
finished. He didn’t want to stay in the hospital for anotherÂ
minute, so he pulled out the needle and left right away.Â
Overnight, the internet was buzzing.Â
Teresa couldn’t stop giggling, sharing gossip with Adelaide.Â
“Who would just happen to pass by the Correctional FacilityÂ
and snap a picture of Amanda being taken in?”Â
“It’s not a coincidence, it should be Lucas.””Â
“Hey?” Teresa’s eyes lit up, smelling the scent of gossip.Â
Adelaide admitted that she was the one who told Lucas aboutÂ
Amanda going to the Correctional Facility.Â
Teresa held a fork against her chin and said, “Looks like Mr.Â
Bradshaw really hates the Pierce family.”Â
“Finley got his hands on the Bradshaw family business, no hateÂ
involved.”Â
“Definitely,” Teresa continued to smile, “As long as that lunaticÂ
gets what’s coming to him, sis is happy.”Â
She was happy too.Â
On the way to work, she received good news from Lucas, sayingÂ
that this incident caused the Hicks Group to lose two billionÂ
overnight. Right now, Finley is in a panic at the company.Â
probably not even having time to think about how to rescueÂ
Amanda.Â
When Adelaide arrived, her colleagues surrounded her withÂ
care and concern, making her feel comforted and touched.Â
Until it was time to leave work, everyone dispersed. Jorge thenÂ
came over and said, “Ms. Pierce, the preliminary list is out, andÂ
both of us are on it. The organizers have notified that the listÂ
members will gather at Dream Restaurant at 7 o’clock tonight.Â
Can you make it? If not, it’s best to let our boss know, I can goÂ
instead.”Â
“I’m out.”Â
Adelaide had nothing going for her. She got divorced and had aÂ
falling out with the Pierce family. Now she needs to focus onÂ
her work and not be seen as a fake heiress of the Pierce familyÂ
or Garrett’s ex–girlfriend in the future.Â
At the team meeting, Reginald didn’t show up, Nathan filled inÂ
instead.Â
Nathan sat in the chief seat, explaining, “Today Mr. Thorton hasÂ
some personal matters and his arrival time is uncertain. So ifÂ
you have any issues, just come to me directly. Okay, let’s startÂ
the meeting.”Â

At the same time, the Thorton’s villa.Â
Byron Thorton and his wife got off the plane and immediately called Reginald, who was still sleeping.Â
He was ordered to return to the old house immediately.Â
The two brothers have always been close since they wereÂ
young, they won’t end up like those melodramatic familyÂ
dramas, fighting over inheritance and becoming enemies.Â
Byron got married early on and settled abroad with his wife,Â
mainly in charge of the Thorton family’s overseas business.Â
