Joshua was unable to refute Adrian’s rhetorical question.
Joshua closed his eyes. The disappointment in him washed over wave after wave.
“I’m your biological son.“
Why did his thoughts and feelings not matter in Adrian’s heart? Only Hailey’s was important.
Adrian smiled. “It’s because I know that you are my son, that is why I hoped you could be with the best
girl on earth.“
Adrian looked at Joshua with bone -chilling iciness.
“It’s true. I don’t really like you that much. I had a good relationship with your mother, but your mother
died while she gave birth to you, and I was quite reluctant to see you after that. I left Banyan
City and left you for your grandmother to bring you up. No matter what, you’re still my son in the end. I
also hope to see you being happy. However, only the girl I arranged for you can bring you happiness,
yet you defied me over and over again…“
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAdrian sneered. “I thought that you were only blinded, and that was why I helped Hailey, time after
time. I never thought that you’d be hopeless. Not only did you kill the woman that loved me the most in
this world, but you also forced the woman that loved you the most to kill herself.“
Joshua smirked.
“I’d rather hope that she didn’t kill herself.“
At that time, on the top floor of Sea City, Joshua did not know everything that Hailey had done. He only
thought she killed herself in embarrassment and rage because her identity had been exposed.
When Joshua knew what Hailey did to Luna, Neil, and Nellie, she had already died.
If Hailey did not kill herself, he swore that he would not let her die such a quick death!
Adrian harrumphed coldly and stood up.
“Too bad Hailey has such a strong character—she never gave you the chance to torture her. If you’re
here today to place the blame on me, then I can tell you that I’ve long known about the truth. Also, I
don’t regret helping Hailey at all.“
Joshua’s hands which were on the stone table balled up tightly.
“Alice used the power you gave her to kill Neil. You won’t feel guilty about this at all, will you?“
“Of course, I won’t.“ Adrian looked at Joshua coldly. “I don’t even like you, and I equally hate your son.“
Adrian smiled. “But, Nellie is still quite adorable and likable.“
Upon saying that, Adrian turned around and noticed Nellie standing by the entrance in a daze with a
teddy bear in her arms.
Stunned, Adrian subconsciously muttered in a low voice, “Nellie…“
It looked like Nellie had been there for a very long time. She must have overheard Adrian saying how
much he hated Neil.
Nellie, with the teddy bear still in her arms, slowly approached Adrian with tears in her eyes.
She lifted her head and looked at Adrian. “Granddad, why don’t you like Neil?“
Adrian paused for a while. He immediately bent down and hugged her. “Nellie, you heard it wrong. I do
like you and Neil. You must’ve misheard me.“
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I ‘m no longer a child. “ Nellie sniffled. She raised her two huge, clear eyes and looked at Adrian. “I
heard what you said. I used to like you a lot, Granddad, but if you had something to do with Neil’s
death…“
Nellie took a deep breath, grabbed Adrian’s hand, and fiercely bit him.
“Ouch! “
Excruciating pain came from Adrian’s arm. He furrowed his brows hard and almost instinctively tried to
pry Nellie off him with his other hand.
However, the infuriated Nellie used all of her might and grabbed onto Adrian’s arm tightly, biting his
hand.
It was as if Nellie would not quit until she bit off a part of Adrian’s hand.
Adrian was in so much pain that he grimaced. Seeing how he was unable to stop Nellie, he got
enraged. He raised the arm that Nellie was holding onto, wanting to fling her away.
However, before Adrian could raise his arm, his shoulder was pressed on by someone.
It was no other than his son and Nellie’s father, Joshua.
“Dad, you’re already so old. Why bother with a child? When your men hurt Neil, have you ever thought
how Neil would feel being burned and blasted to pieces alive? “Nellie biting you, no matter how painful
it is, is just a mere fraction of what Neil suffered that day.”
