“Alright!” Finley’s head was pounding, “Egbert is my friend’s son,
be nice to him.”
Adelaide sneered, “Dad, I’m not your biological daughter. I
remember all these years of raising me. If you feel that I don’t fit
in with the Pierce family anymore, you can just be honest and
say it.”
“On one hand, I gave up Garrett for Amanda. We haven’t even
gotten our divorce certificates yet, and you’re already rushing
to find me a blind date. Don’t you think you’re being too pushy?”
“Since they really don’t like me that much, I’m cutting ties with
the Pierce family. I’ll pay back every penny they spent on me.
And from now on, I won’t set foot in the Pierce’s place again.”
“What’s the divorce cooling–off period?” Egbert seemed to have
heard some big gossip, “Did you really marry Garrett?”
“Adelaide!” Finley’s face turned from red to blue.
Adelaide stood in front of Egbert, “Yeah, Garrett and I haven’t
finished our cool–off period yet. You’ve been chosen to be my
backup.”
“No, me?” Egbert was always a fun–loving guy, but he never

played second fiddle to anyone when it came to relationships.
Adelaide looked at Finley, whose face was already colorful, and
said, “Dad, if you’re not avoiding me because you’re afraid I’ll
steal Garrett back, don’t worry. There are plenty of men out
there, I can find one myself.”
“Besides breaking up with me, I hope you all don’t contact me
anymore. Goodbye.”
Adelaide left decisively after saying her final words.
Finley rolled his eyes and almost passed out. He pointed at
Spencer standing there like a statue and urged, “What are you
waiting for? Go get her back for me!”
Spencer’s gaze turned cold at the moment, “Is he really the blind date you set up for Adele?”
“Is it your turn to question me here? Go chase after him!” Finley
was furious.
After Spencer was determined, he didn’t pay attention to his
father’s words and went straight to Egbert.
“Mr. Jennings, let’s go chat for a bit.”
“Eh?” Egbert is still confused until now.
“You rascal, don’t mess around!” Finley was so excited that he
Chapter171
was about to get up.
“Dad, you still need to take care of yourself. Let your son handle
this.”
Deal with it! Finley roared in his mind.
But Spencer still insisted on taking Egbert out.
Finley was sitting slumped at the head of the bed, all messed up.

After leaving the hospital, Adelaide was driving and talking to
Lucas on speakerphone.
“Did you intentionally tell Finley about the illness that didn’t
spread?”
“My bro helped you out of a jam, and you’re gonna turn around
and attack him without even saying thanks?”
“No,” Adelaide said, “How can you be so sure that I can solve this
problem?”
“Maybe you couldn’t do it before, but you definitely can now.
Otherwise, how did you end up working for Reginald?” Lucas
