Chapter 174


    The meeting room immediately turned into chaos.


    “No way! Where did Adeline’s daughtere from? She’s already dead!!” Yvonne stood up and


    pointed at thewyer, “Don’t you dare read that nonsense! I can sue you!” “Ms Yvonne, please calm


    down. Mr. Baldrick had a video recorded in the presence of a notary to avoid any issues after the


    announcement.”


    Thewyer gestured, and the assistant immediately started ying the video.


    On the screen, after some brief static, the image appeared.


    Baldrick was lying in a hospital bed, looking frail, but somewhat spirited.


    The date in theer of the video showed it was recorded half a year ago.


    The content at the beginning was not controversial. However, at the end….


    “All my real estate, as well as the rest of my assets, will be inherited by my adopted daughter Adeline’s


    no, Adeline Tesdal’s daughter”


    “It’s impossible! Yvonne shouted out loud.


    Baldrick on the video was still talking “Since Adeline passed away, I’ve lost contact with my


    granddaughter. I entrust my dear friend Hria to find her on my behalf.”


    Hria covered her mouth, tears streaming down her face. She had no idea Adeline had a child still


    alive in this world. Neither did she know Baldrick still saw her as a close friend


    “It’s all fake! It can’t be real” Yvonne still refused to ept this reality


    Baldrick took a moment to catch his breath. Then he looked into the camera and said, “Hria, please


    take my ashes with you… and take me home.”


    “Alright alright. “Hria was sobbing uncontrobly


    Calvin was worried. If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have let Ms. Tesdal go. Now who would


    comfort the olddy?


    “Mom Latham was also somewhat confused


    One thing was the unbelievable will. His wife was the suffering one, but her father left her nothing.


    The other was that Adeline had actually died. And Yvonne knew it the whole time?


    Hna raised her hand, preventing her son from approaching


    “Mr. Zack, did Baldrick leave any message for me?” She asked thewyer.


    Mr. Zack sighed, “He didn’t know where Adeline was, that’s why he couldn’t tell you. He genuinely had


    no idea.”


    “Can we speak privately for a moment? Mr. Zack nced at Yvonne and her husband before asking.


    “We need to hear it too! Yvonne demanded.


    She was about to lose her mind from anger.


    Why? Why did her father still think about that imposter Adeline in the end?


    Everything that Adeline had should’ve belonged to her, even her husband!Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g


    She wanted to get back what was rightfully hers, so what if she resorted to some tactics? But her father


    completely disregarded her feelings.


    “Because Mr. Baldrick was afraid that if someone, like Ms. Yvonne, were to find Adeline’s daughter


    before us, she would be in danger Mr. Zack spoke bluntly


    He was Nathan’s close friend and knew all the details of what happened back then. He despised


    Yvonne, that wicked woman.


    Yvonne froze in shock.


    Mr. Zack and Hria left the conference room
