Chapter 585
Winifred was in disbelief. Until that moment, Diana still wanted to take advantage of the sympathy of the Hayes family to be freed. She was unsavable at that point.
Cecil was right. One could do all kinds of charity, but not meddle in other people's business.
Jaseh adopted Diana because of his old comrade, but look what had happened.
His kindness raised an ungrateful child.
"Dad..."
Hearing that, Jaseh sneered, "Don't call me 'dad'. You're not my daughter. I adopted you because your father died on the battlefield. It was also his last wish, but I didn't expect that my children would almost die because of your selfishness."
Diana's pupils constricted as she listened. She said in disbelief, "What did you say?"
"You weren't some abandoned child from the streets. You were my comrade-in-arms' daughter. I never told you for so many years because I didn't want you to be sad, but you have humiliated your father's name as a hero."
She shook her head and muttered to herself, "No, I would rather I be picked up from the streets." She had always worshiped soldiers because Jaseh's study room was full of his glory. To integrate herself into the Hayes family, she even went for plastic surgery to look like his descendant, a descendant of a soldier.
But now... She was told about the identity of her biological father.
However, everything she did was nothing but cruel, which humiliated her father.
"Diana, I've always cared about you. Whatever Cecil owned, I've made sure you had them too. I believe that I've never mistreated you." Winifred was upset. She didn't expect her to turn out like this.
"Mom... "
"Alright, we've said what has to be said. Let's go." Thaud didn't want to talk to her anymore.
He stood up and was about to leave.
"Dad, please save me. Please give me a chance." Diana quickly grabbed his hand, her tears flowing profusely. She knew that it would be difficult to meet again if she was left like this.
Looking at the person holding his hand, Jaseh showed a trace of firmness in his eyes. "Diana, I raised you and fulfilled your dead father's last wish. Yet, you almost got my children killed. From today onwards, we're even. Furthermore, you are no longer my daughter. I will remove you from my ancestral residence." After saying that, he pushed her hand away and turned to leave.
She shouted from behind, "Dad! Mom! Don't leave me alone!"
Neither Jaseh nor Winifred felt satisfied. After all, it was they who raised her. No parent would bear to see their kids turning out this way. However, when they thought of her behavior, they felt that killing her would not be enough to vent their anger.
Diana's incident had spread like wildfire throughout the city. Everyone felt that the Hayes family was never strict in parenting, which was why they had raised such a child. However, no one dared to speak of this matter in front of them. They would only discuss it behind their backs.
Everleigh asked Cecil to meet her in a cafe, wanting to know about Diana's matter. Cecil explained everything in detail.
"I still have to thank you. If it wasn't for Yudell, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to find her." Cecil had transferred the money to him.
Everleigh chuckled. She didn't have the nerve to bring up Elvir, or Yudell might not have tried his best to help her.
"What did your parents say?"
"My parents are sad, but they knew what had to be done. No matter what, we are their biological children. She is just an adopted child." Cecil chuckled. It was necessary to distinguish true blood relatives from those who weren't.
Everleigh didn't say anything. All that mattered was that the issue had been resolved.
"By the way, did Wilson say anything? We took care of the matter with Diana. As for Wilson, we haven't pursued the matter yet."
"I heard that he had gone to the authorities to give an explanation. The crime of harboring a suspect is not a small matter."
"I admire Wilson. He was able to associate with Diana. I don't know who gave him such courage," Cecil said with a look of disgust.
She would never want to associate with Diana, even if she was paid to do so.
"When people are forced into a situation, anything is possible. Wilson was just an example of it," Everleigh said with a sigh.
Cecil nodded in agreement.
At that moment, Wilson went to see Diana.
Her expression was cold as ice. "Think of a way to get me out." "I saved you once, but you let yourself get caught by others. What can I do now? Don't you know that because of you, I have also been implicated." He was furious with her self-righteous tone. Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
He had no intention of listening to her as he owed her nothing.
Her face stiffened. "You mean you'll just stand by and do nothing about it?"
She was about to go crazy from being in such a place. There was nothing here, and she would constantly hear people fighting in the middle of the night. If she stayed here, she would definitely go crazy.
He snorted, "If you had given me the shares earlier, nothing would have happened. How dare you blame me?"
"Now, the shares are in my hands. If you want to get the shares, you must get me out of here, otherwise... Don't think about getting them."
Seeing that she was self-righteous, he despised her even more. She had no clue that once she entered prison, all the shares would be returned, and the shares of Godfrey Group would have been returned to Xavier.
Of course, he knew that Xavier had used some tricks. Since his people were sacked by him, he couldn't do anything.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have allowed the shares in
Diana's hands to be transferred to Xavier.
"Take care of yourself." Wilson walked out as soon as he finished his words.
Diana had a feeling that she was being abandoned. She quickly shouted, "Wilson, you took my money and dared to ignore me. Let me tell you this. You better hope I stay here forever. Otherwise, I will make you suffer more."
However, he scoffed at her words. Some people chose to vent their feelings by cursing when they were in despair.
Everleigh and Theodore were enjoying a candlelight dinner. She cut into a piece of steak and asked, "Where are Alastair and Adrienne?"
"I wanted to bring them over, but they were taken away by Xavier. You know that Adrienne likes to be with him."
She recalled her daughter's attitude towards Xavier and chuckled. "Let them be. Ever since your mother passed away, he has become more and more reticent, just like how you were before."
He paused and smiled. "Xavier has been gloomy ever since the problems with his legs occurred. He always feels like he's a good-for-nothing. When he took over Godfrey Group, the resentment in his heart was vented. However, his mother's death is still a huge blow to him."
"I understand. He often complained about your mother, but in fact, he loves her very much."
Theodore nodded. This was indeed the case.
Adrienne and Alastair were both insightful people. They believed that they would be able to help Xavier move on.
At this moment, things were lively on his end, but even more so, he was feeling rather helpless.
