Chapter 53 Harold quickly grew furious.
âGeorge, I am pouring out my secrets to you, and youâre pouring cold water over my head. I donât want to talk to you anymore. Hmph!â
He angrily hung up, and he was so angry that he could not continue eating the biscuits.
George, who was abroad, coldly turned around and looked at his assistant. âI need to go back to Sea City tomorrow. Book the flight ticket for me.â
âYoung Master George, you need to inspect the branch company tomorrow, and you have to attend the overseas general meeting on the day after tomorrow. Mr. Winters arranged all this.â
âBook the flight ticket three days later.â
Georgeâs expression was dark as he said.
That woman, Adina, was so aggressive that even his motherâs family was unable to escape her wiles.
He had to go back.
Besides, Adina had approached Harold with motives of her own, so he had to go back and keep an eye on him. Otherwise, Harold, the silly boy would fall into the trap.
Old Mrs. Daughertyâs birthday celebration was on this Friday.
After Adina sent her kids to the kindergarten, she drove toward the Daugherty family.
The Daugherty family was being criticized in the limelight of public opinion, so they dared not organize Old Mrs. Daughertyâs birthday party on a large scale.
People who attended the birthday party today were the closest relatives of the Daugherty family.
When Adina showed up at the doorstep of the Daugherty family, she attracted everyoneâs attention.
âWow, youâre really Addy. You did not die.â
âAddy, youâre more beautiful than five years ago. Come over, let me take a look at you.â
Sammy and Becky came forward, held Adinaâs hands, and touched her. They asked her about her recent activities over the past years.
Compared to her indifferent father, the greetings from these two aunts comforted Adina slightly. She smiled and said, âAunt Sammy, Aunt Becky, both of you look much younger than five years ago. I nearly couldnât recognize you.â
She smiled obediently, and she calmly chatted with the relatives of the Daugherty family.
Dew stood at the entrance, and the coldness in her eyes nearly could not be hidden After five years, Adina the bitch was unexpectedly still the same as she was in the past. As soon as she showed up, everyone surrounded her, Dew was clearly the heir of the Daugherty family now, but the relatives of the Daugherty family were still focusing on Adina!
Dew was so angry that she gritted her teeth.
It was only when Ruby walked over and pulled her slightly that she suppressed her anger.
âDew, youâre the future mistress of the Winters family, so you have to stay calm. On this occasion, you have to maintain your elegance and poise. Do not lose your composure.â Ruby lowered her voice and said that before she walked toward Adina.
Her face was initially cold, but when she walked to Adina, her tears quickly fell.
âAddy, youâre finally backâ¦â Ruby instantly held Adina with her arms. She cried and said,â Itâs my fault at that time. I shouldnât have agreed to ground you in the warehouse and let you live on your own.
Addy, over these past five years, this has been my deepest regret. Since you left, Iâve never had a single night of sleep. I really miss you. Youâre finally back. Our family of four can finally reuniteâ¦â
She kept crying so sadly. People who did not know the fact might think Adina was her biological daughter when they saw her looking like this. Adina produced the ghost of a smile.
