Revenge on My Sister and Ex-Husband (Adelaide) novel Chapter 29

Spencer saw their father’s temper rising. He walked towards

Adelaide and said gently, “Adele, let’s talk about this at home.

This really isn’t the place.”

“Family business should be handled at home, sure. But first, let’s

deal with the case,” came a calm voice from nearby. Lyndon

walked into view and continued, “You’re the relatives of

Amanda Pierce and Adelaide Pierce, correct? Then let’s review

the security footage before we go any further.

Amanda’s heart skipped a beat.

She knew very well that she couldn’t hide anything from

security footage.

Lyndon turned the laptop screen toward them and hit play.

From the moment Adelaide sat down and Amanda threw

coffee at her, to Amanda picking up a shattered piece of glass

and lunging at her, it was all crystal clear. Every angle showed

Amanda’s intent to hurt Adelaide.

The audience was astonished. That was not even close to a little

spat to them at all.

Garrett was burning with rage. He turned to hold Adelaide’s

hand to offer comfort, but she moved away as if he were

something dirty.

His hand closed on empty air, which hurt his feelings a little bit.

Amanda wailed, “It wasn’t like that! She provoked me, I just lost

control!”

“Yeah! My daughter has always been a good girl! If something

like this happened, she must’ve been pushed. I know my

daughter very well!” She turned to her husband. “Finley, say

something!”

Finley looked more conflicted than anyone. Adelaide’s move

had put him in an impossible position.

Out of helplessness, Finley gave Spencer a subtle look.

Spencer understood immediately and gently took Adelaide’s

hand. “Adele, let’s talk.”

Before Adelaide could refuse, Garrett grabbed her other hand.

“If you’re going to talk to her, then you should talk to me too. I’m

her husband.”

But Amanda clung to Garrett’s arm with a tearful face. “Garrett,

don’t go! I’m scared!”

So now four of them stood in a row, hands locked. It looked like

some messed–up love polygon. The onlookers were stunned.

Adelaide wanted to die from sheer humiliation. She had never

felt so embarrassed in her life. She wanted to get rid of everyone right at the moment.

“Let go!” Garrett snapped.

“No, I won’t.” Amanda clung tighter to Garrett.

Adelaide had seen enough. If she stayed a second longer, she might throw up. Besides, Lyndon had already said he would

handle things from here.

“Just go pamper you precious Mandy,” she said coldly, shaking

off Garrett’s hand.

That upset Garrett a bit, but Spencer’s lips curled in satisfaction.

The smile stopped when Adelaide shook his hand off too.

Adelaide walked out. And Spencer followed her right behind.

Garrett tried to chase after her since he didn’t want to let them

be alone together. However, Amanda was determined to cling

to him and he couldn’t break away.

This whole scene was more dramatic than a soap opera. The

crowd was once again floored.

Finley looked stiff and exhausted. He didn’t even care to argue

anymore. He just wanted to resolve things and go home.

“Officer Sweeney, Finley tried to catch Lyndon’s attention.
