With that, the entire room fell silent.
Amos and Heather were stunned.
The two of them looked at lan at the same time.
“lan, what do you mean?”
Joel looked at lan in confusion.
lan lowered his eyes and said slowly, “Back then, when I handed the position of the family head to
Joel, I hesitated to formally adopt Joel under my own name.Now that I think about it, it would have
been better to adopt him.This way, at the very least, it would’ve shut your stupid mouths.Not just
anyone can mock my successor!”
His domineering attitude stunned Amos and Heather.
In the past, when lan raised Joel by his side, the two of them were worried that lan would not accept
Joel.
They had asked for adoption before, but lan said that he was just a nephew.
They were all members of The Smith family.
Whether they went through with the adoption or not was only a formality.
However, the two of them did not expect lan to change his tune now.
Joel was also stunned as he looked at lan in a daze.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtlan stared at him.
“Joel, would you like to be my son?”
Joel’s eyes turned red.
After so many years, he had gained a lot of knowledge from lan and learned how to manage the
company.It could be said that he was personally taught by lan.
When he was young, everyone told him that lan was only teasing him by bringing him along.
Otherwise, why wouldn’t he go through with the adoption? He had also asked Ian this question.
However, lan said, “Because I don’t need a son.I raised you only because the Smiths lack a
successor.”
Joel understood at that time that lan had never thought of him as a son.
He was only doing his duty to the family.
lan always had a distant attitude toward him.
Joel treated him as his father in his heart, and he knew that lan had never wanted to leave any
worries in this world.
He never expected lan to make such a suggestion so many years after Joel inherited the Smiths.
Joel could maintain his composure in the face of company matters, but at this moment, he was a
little moved.
His voice was trembling as he said, “Of course I would, Uncle lan.”
lan smiled.
“You’re still calling me Uncle lan?”
Joel’s mouth moved.He seemed embarrassed to have said that word.
However, Tanya, who was standing beside him, suddenly said, “Dad, Nora will be my aunt from now
on!”
Her words woke Joel up.
Joel’s lips trembled again as he shouted, “Dad.”
He had not called lan Dad for more than twenty years.
“Yes, son”
lan responded and looked at the shocked Amos and Heather.
“I’ll get the lawyers to handle all the formalities.I hope that the two of you will maintain a distance
from Joel in the future! After all, you have to avoid arousing suspicion! Understand? If I ever find out
again that the two of you are doing something outside calling yourselves Joel’s parents, don’t blame
me for being rude!”
His tone was filled with dense killing intent.
Both Amos and Heather were frightened.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe two of them did not dare to say anything else.
They stood up and said, “Okay.”
lan left another sentence.
“I’ll arrange for you guys to go overseas.Don’t come back again.”
The two of them:”…”
They had not expected that not only would they fail to trick lan, they would even lose what they
already had! After this irksome couple left, Joel quickly restrained his emotions and looked at Nora.
He asked, “Nora, Karl…What’s going on with Karl?”
Nora clicked her tongue.
This brother was indeed smart.
From what she had said earlier, he guessed that Karl might have a plan.
In order not to make Tanya worry, Nora said, “I asked Uncle Karl today.He’s actually an
informant.I’ve already found and asked his contact to come out.If nothing goes wrong, he can be
released the day after tomorrow.”
This sentence shocked Tanya.
“What?”
Joel was also a little stunned and found it unbelievable.
“The boss of the Assassin Alliance…is an informant for the police? Why does this sound so hard to
believe?”
