    Mrs. Finnian said this brazenly, and Jada released a breath of relief.


    “As I‘ve already mentioned, no, thank you.” Adeena‘s face was a mask of coldness. “Please go home,


    Mrs. Finnian, and do not bring this matter up again.” Mrs. Finnian narrowed her eyes. “Do you know


    what you have just refused?”


    The corners of Adeena‘s mouth twitched.


    ‘Some people really do put on airs and think very highly of themselves. Does the Finnian family really


    assume that everyone wants their connections?‘


    She did not want to argue with Mrs. Finnian, nor did she want to be bothered by her again.


    She opened her purse, took out the ultrasound results, and handed it to her. “Have a look at this


    medical report, Mrs. Finnian. If you still want me as your daughter–inw, then I have nothing else to


    say.” Mrs. Finnian picked up the ultrasound results dubiously. She gave it a casual nce and was


    promptly shocked. “Is this true?” “Who would even lie about themselves like this?” Adeena smiled


    faintly. “With this, would you give up on me, Mrs. Finnian?” Mrs. Finnian‘s expression became quite


    ufortable. She gave Jada a cold look before she got up and left.


    Jada rushed to catch up to her. “Mrs. Finnian, this must be a misunderstanding. Didn‘t we have a good


    discussion just now?”


    Jada was actually a bit fearful of her adopted daughter and did not wish to continue living under the


    same roof as her… But at the same time, she was ashamed of what she had done to her, and could


    only try to give Adeena the best arrangement she could manage


    ‘Why is she leaving so suddenly when we finally went through with the negotiation?‘


    “Jada, you set me up!” Mrs. Finnian angrily said, “There‘s no way you didn‘t know your adopted


    daughter had given birth before! Jacky may indulge himself in life, but he would never marry spoiled


    goods!”


    With this, Mrs. Finnian brushed Jada off her sleeve and left.


    Jada was stunned for a moment. Then, she slowly turned back and was met with Adeena‘s sharp eyes.


    “Adeena, you…” “Mother, I just came back from the hospital.” Adeena handed her the ultrasound


    results. “The doctor said I had a C–section done three or four years ago.” Jada‘s fingers clenched


    suddenly, and she hurriedly looked down at the results to hide her guilty conscience and panic.


    “Mother, I would like to ask you this: That year when father found me, was I heavily pregnant, or was I a


    mother who had just given birth?”


    Adeena asked this in a low voice, but her curled–up fingers vaguely revealed a bit of her nervousness.


    Jada shook her head and sighed deeply. “Adeena, you listened to Jack‘s nonsense and went to the


    hospital to have it checked, right?”


    She sat on the sofa, took a sip of water, and continued, “That year, when we brought you back here


    from the sea while you wereatose, I noticed the scar on your abdomen while I was cleaning your


    body. Ruth saw it too and asked me what scar it was. I‘m no doctor, and naturally, my answer wouldn‘t


    be the most urate, so I simply said that it looked like a surgical scar from an appendectomy…”

    “Then why would Ruth know that I‘ve given birth before?” Adeena continued to interrogate. She had a


    feeling that Jada was not telling her everything.


    “Because I took you for an examination afterward, and when the doctor revealed this, Ruth overheard


    us.” Jada made up the story in her head, and as she spoke, she felt less diffident. “I urged Ruth to


    never tell you. Who would‘ve thought that she‘d disclose it to Jack? She had a crush on Jack, but she


    was young and too naive. She couldn‘t keep Jack under a leash, so I didn‘t approve of her marrying


    him. When she saw how close you became with Jack, she couldn‘t help but sabotage your


    rtionship… This is her fault, and I will reprimand her for


    it.”
