Adina glanced at the caller ID. It was a number from Central City.
She stared at the number for a few seconds before answering the call. âIs this Adina Daugherty? Ms.
Daugherty?â
An elderly voice came from the other end of the phone. Adina frowned and answered indifferently, âThis is me. May I know who this is?â âIâm Tysonâs father,â Mr. Samuel Osborne said slowly. âCan we have a chat?â Adinaâs heart sank a little. Her worst fears after the exposure of her children had come true.
Tyson was willing to compromise for the sake of the company, but how could the older generation, who cared a lot about bloodline inheritance, allow their offspring to live outside?
Adina pursed her lips and said, âWhat would you like to talk about, Mr. Osborne?â
âYou raised the children alone. It would be unkind and unjust of our family to take custody away from you so abruptly. The matter of custody shall be discussed later.â Mr. Samuel Osborne said, enunciating each word. âHowever, we must meet the children. Bring the children to Central City or have Tyson bring them back here.â
âThatâs out of the question!â
Adina coldly refused.
She pursed her lips. âThey are my children. They have nothing to do with the Osborne family.â
âThat sounds ridiculous, Ms. Daugherty. Did you conceive the fraternal twins solely on your own?â Mr.
Samuel Osborne snickered. âYou should be glad that Tyson only has one son for all these years, otherwise, there wouldnât be any room for your son and daughter. I have already spoken to Tysonâs wife about this matter. She has agreed to take the children into our family. What more do you want?â
âMr. Osborne, if you are trying to take my children away from me, just contact my lawyer directly.â
Adina hung up coldly She looked out of the window into the traffic on the street. She had a bad feeling about this.
Aller picking up the children and taking them home at night, Adinaâs phone rang again. It was also a number from Central City, but it was not the same caller.
Adina resisted the urge to reject the call.
However, she was afraid of missing any crucial information, When it came to fighung a lawsuit, it was also best to know what your enemy was up to.
She wiped her hands and answered the call. A gentle voice of a woman came from the other end of the phone.
âHello, Ms. Daugherty. This is Tysonâs wife.â The corner of Adinaâs lips curled into a sneer.
In order to take her children away, the Osborne family had actually gotten everyone in the family to help. She wondered how Mrs. Osborne had managed to swallow the humiliation and make this call.
She said indifferently, âHello, Mrs. Osborne. What can I do for you?â
âMs. Daugherty, I know what you are thinking, but I have to make this call.â Mrs. Osborne spoke frankly.
âI will not divorce Tyson. Nothing can make me divorce him. If you donât want people to call your son and daughter illegitimate children, youâd better send them to our family in Central City as soon as possible. I can assure you that whatever my son has, your twins will get the same. I will never favor one over the other.â Adina could not help but snicker. âYou still want to keep a husband like that, as if heâs your treasure. Donât you find him disgusting?â ; âWhat happened that night five years ago was an accident. Someone got him drunk Itâs normal that he couldnât control his sexual impulse. You, on the contraryâ¦â Mrs. Osborne sneered. âYou went out of your way to sleep with my husband. That makes you a home wrecker. Not only did you not reflect on yourself, but you secretly gave birth to my husbandâs children. You are just trying to use your children to make him marry you, arenât you? Iâm sorry to tell you this, but you will never get what you want!â Adina suddenly felt a little bad for Mrs.
Osborne.
Her husband cheated on her and had illegitimate children outside. Yet she went out of her way to talk about her husbandâs mistake.
However, since that mistake was made five years ago, Mrs. Osborne and she were already on opposite sides, although it was not a situation she wanted to see.
