Chapter 859
Inside the dining hall, Jack Hughes lazily leaned against the back of the chair, and the person sitting opposite of him was Felicity's foster father, Adrian.
Because his career had been revived, his expression no longer showed any signs of worry or anxiety. He respectfully placed a cup of tea in front of Jack Hughes.
"Felicity is really Wayne White's daughter? Are you sure?" Jack's voice was as cold and calm as water.
Adrian hurriedly nodded, and answered with an absolutely certain tone: "Yes, Wayne White came to my house, and personally admitted that Felicity was his daughter who had lost twenty years. At that time, I was very angry, and scolded him to leave."
To confirm whether what had happened was real or fake, Jack took out his phone and took out a picture of Wayne White: "It's him, right?"
"I really didn't expect that Felicity's biological father would actually be an entrepreneur. If I knew it earlier, I would have asked Wayne White to return the maintenance fees that were more than twenty years old. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
"You can ask him for it now, Wayne White is a famous philanthropist!" Jack Hughes looked like he did not care about anything, and smiled.
"If I ask him now, will he give it to me?"
"Last time, I was enraged by him and reproached him strongly. He left with a gloomy expression." Adrian's expression shook, he felt that this matter was not realistic.
"Why did you blame him?" Jack Hughes raised his brows, his gaze still cold and bland.
Adrian gritted his teeth in hatred: "Because Felicity hurted my daughter and made her go crazy, Felicity is really ruthless, I raised her up but she doesn't care about us. Alice is my only daughter, I couldn't bear to hit her, and even to scold her. But now she became a madwoman. Just thinking about her makes me sad and hateful."
"You kept on saying that Felicity harmed your daughter, but it seems like you still haven't told me why she hurted your daughter." Because Jack was not interested in the enmity between them, he also did not investigate it specifically. At this moment, he suddenly became interested and asked.
Adrian's face suddenly turned pale white, he looked at Jack Hughes.
"What is it? Is it inconvenient to say?" Jack Hughes sneered.
"No, it's just that I'm ashamed to say that I spoiled Alice, so she did something that hurt Felicity." Indeed, Adrian did not have the face to bring up this matter, It was indeed because he knew that Felicity was also heavily injured that Adrian put this matter to rest.
"How did she hurt Felicity?" Jack squinted, and in the depths of his eyes, there was a hint of surprise.
"My daughter got her into a car accident. I heard she was seriously injured and had a head injury." Under Jack's sharp gaze, Adrian's scalp went numb as he told the truth.
Hearing that, Jack gradually got a blank dead face, but then laughed sarcastically: "It can't be that she
wanted to snatch Edward back again, right?"
"It's all because of him!" When Adrian heard Edward's name, he was both afraid and resentful.
Jack's heart was troubled for some reason, and his face darkened. He raised his cup and drank a mouthful of tea, in order to suppress the anger in his heart.
"Edward seems to love Felicity a lot, it's no wonder your daughter was unwilling."
Thinking about it, Adrian's face was once again filled with grief: "Edward played with my daughter's feelings, and said that he liked her before, but met Felicity later on, and ruthlessly abandoned her. This Edward relied on his own power and influence, and could easily play with women, it's too hateful."
At this moment, looking at Adrian's expression, which seemed as though he wished to kill with a knife, he pursed his lips in a slightly pleased manner, but his voice still carried a sense of concern: "Adrian, I am shocked by the things that happen to you, and you have scolded him right. Edward is such a hateful person. How can he easily get anything, including a woman's love for him."
It was as if someone said something painful on Adrian's heart. His old face couldn't help but shed tears, "This silly daughter of mine has loved him for six whole years, it's really not worth it. Since all the men in this world aren't dead yet, why did she insist on marrying Edward Hughes?"
"Because Edward has money, he can satisfy any of her desires. Women are so greedy, I have already seen through it." Jack sneered, his expression was one of contempt for the world.
"Yes, women are not always kind and attracting, I am very regretful that I married this current wife right now. Back then, when my former wife was still alive, she was not greedy at all, and was gentle and
considerate to me. However, at the present, the current wife is just like a greedy vampire, running out of my every amount of money." As if he was talking about the sad things that happened, Adrian cried even harder.
"Was Felicity brought up by your ex-wife?" Jack suddenly asked him curiously.
Adrian wiped away his tears, "Yes, my ex-wife never gave birth to children. She treated Felicity as her own daughter and loved her very much."
Seeing that he had disagreed with Felicity, Jack only let out a cold laugh.
In his view, Felicity had not changed, and the one who had changed was Adrian.
"Young Master, do you really like Felicity?" He remembered that when he had first met Jack Hughes, he had honestly told him that he had taken a fancy to Felicity, and therefore, Adrian couldn't help but to be concerned about him.
"Yes sir!" Jack nodded, "I seem to have found out something good about her from your ex-wife!"
Adrian was startled, and immediately shook his head: "She was a good child in the past, but now, it is not certain. If she follows Edward Hughes, sooner or later she will become bad."
Jack smiled faintly, "No matter what, I am still very interested in her. Take a look and see if there's a chance for us to improve your relationship."
"Young Master, she and I have long since broken off our relationship. Although I really want to help you, however…" Adrian was helpless to him.
Jack looked at him agonisingly: "Are you unable to help me with this?"
"Young Master, do you only want to know about her, or do you want to get along with her seriously?" Adrian really felt that it was strange.
Jack's identity was so illustrious, why did he still like Felicity who had a children and a boyfriend?
"I want her to fall in love with me!" Jack said coldly.
Adrian was even more surprised, finding it hard to believe: "Love you? Right now, she really loves Edward Hughes. For her to fall in love with you, it would be difficult unless she lost her memories!"
"Memory loss?" Jack muttered these two words.
