Chapter 891
The reason why Adrian would sincerely come over to apologize to Felicity was not because he has realized his fault and
suddenly felt that he owed this daughter. It was because someone was forcing him to admit his wrongs to Felicity, and he must
regain Felicity's recognition.
That person was Jack Hughes.
He spent another five million on Adrian to buy their reconciliation.
Adrian, who was already at the end of his rope and suffering unspeakably, did not have any backbone left. Seeing the five million
all belong to him; he did not say anything on the spot and agreed.
Actually, people are all snobbish and realistic. Felicity had regained her standing in Hughes Family, how could Adrian bear to let
her sever her father-daughter relationship with him?
Thus, after thinking hard about it, Adrian still showed 100% sincerity in the end and called Felicity. He even took out the things
his ex-wife had stored.
Actually, it was not only Felicity had boundless longing for her adopted mother but so did Adrian. When Adrian took out the
photos of her ex-wife from the storage room on the third floor, he was deeply moved. Especially after the comparison of the
present mercenary wife, Adrian regrets that he didn't cherish his ex-wife well before he became decadent and broken.
Felicity had already ordered the dishes before he came here, and at this moment, them were sending out one by one; all of them
were expensive, and to Adrian, it was even more impossible to tell what it tasted like.
His daughter from before, who was reluctant to even buy snacks, was now consuming an already amazing meal.
Thinking about it, Adrian still had a lot of respect for Felicity. In the past, after Christina and Edward's rumor was spread out,
there would be people who would report them meeting each other every month for dinner. Even if Christina came out of his
company, she would be taken out for a close-up in capital.
However, Felicity was currently very low–key. She had given birth to two children for Edward Hughes, received Edward's
sincerity, and was even accepted by the elders of the Hughes Family; she was completely the mistress of Hughes Family.
However, she never seemed to show off in front of the media, and only got patted once or twice by someone occasionally.
"Uncle Adrian, eat!" Felicity said indifferently.
Facing the table full of delicious dishes, Adrian was clearly hungry, but for some reason, he just could not eat, just feel the panic
in his heart
However, Felicity slowly ate, and did not say anything else.
"Felicity, can I treat you to a meal sometime? As your father, I will truly apologize to you!" Adrian suddenly said.
"Alright!" Felicity nodded.
Adrian's heart relaxed. Finally, she agreed to eat together with him, and when the time came, they would invite Jack Hughes over
as well, and he would finally fulfill one of Jack's request.
After eating lunch, Adrian left, bringing her mother's things back to the company.
At the dinner table, she hadn't looked through the photo albums or opened the small wooden box. At this moment, her mind was
racing and her memories were back in her head. She opened the photo albums, and every year, there were several pictures of
her in different periods of time until the year her mother passed away. It was as if all her happiness had been separated by that
year, and she had never left any photos behind.
Tears rolled down her cheeks unceasingly. In the photo, the young Adrian hugged her and looked at her lovingly. She was not as
unfamiliar with him as she was now, and the pain in her heart made Felicity feel even worse.
When she opened the wooden box, she found two pairs of silver bracelets, as well as some of the trinkets from her childhood.
There was nothing fashion about them. They were just plain and old, representing her adoptive mother's kind to her
Wiping away her tears, Felicity admired her own childhood photos and realized that her daughter Arya was really seventy to
eighty percent similar to her. Although she gave a birth to a pair of boy-and-girl twins, her son had more of the appearance of
Edward, while Arya had more of the appearance of her.
A pair of children with each other's gene ... this was definitely the happiest thing.
Felicity suddenly thought of something, Edward was abroad, what was he doing now?
She wanted to give him a call, but she was afraid of disturbing him. Forget it, he was definitely busy too.
Indeed, just as Felicity had thought, Edward was not idling around. In his haste, Edward had seen many people, among whom
were his sworn enemies from the past. He wanted to learn more about some of the things that had happened when his father
was working in the company.
These people were all elite members of the Hughes Family, and had always been by Edward's father, Leonard Hughes's side.
After John Hughes took over the company, the first thing he did was to find all sorts of excuses to get rid of them. One emperor
and one courtier seem to be the same means in any situation.
Edward wanted to borrow John Hughes's power to re-investigate the relationship between him and his father when he was
released from prison. He wanted to find some evidence from them to prove whether his father's death was an accident or a
murder.
Edward lowered his posture and met with a few of his father's most capable subordinates back then. After some understanding,
Edward was still extremely shocked in his heart. Back then, both he and his brother were still very young, he didn't know what
the company was like.
He had never seen it, and he had only seen his father when he got off work before.
A few years ago, Edward had been busy taking over the company, and with John Hughes being locked in jail, under various
restrictions, Edward hold off on the investigation. Now, John was out of prison, and the company had also stabilized under his
management, as Leonard's son, what was on Edward's mind the most was his death. No matter whether dad is sorry for his
mother or not, he can't die with injustice.
Coming out from the dining hall, Edward's face was terrifyingly gloomy. Larry followed beside him, not daring to say a single
word.
Just now, at the dining table, those few men were all talking about one thing, and that was, after his father Leonard Hughes had
joined the company, he had had a few huge arguments with John Hughes.
John wanted to enter the company, but was rejected by Leonard. John has been making trouble with him many times.
Although it's all in private, it's already a hidden danger.
As he sat in the car, the gloominess on Edward's face did not disappear.
Clenching his big palm into a fist, he seemed to wish that he could smash a hole in someone's face.
Larry carefully followed by his side. He had heard everything just now, and John was actually threatening his father with his and
his brother's lives. If he had not heard it with his own ears, Edward would not have believed that John was even more malicious
and hateful than he thought.
"Young Master, what do we do next? Are we really going to treat him to lunch tomorrow?" Larry risked his life to ask, if Young
Master had any arrangements, he would have to make preparations as soon as possible. This was his primary duty as an
assistant.
"Yes, we are!" Edward Hughes coldly replied.
