Chapter 442 Let’s Get To It

However, Melinda was destined to be disappointed.

dan looked at her and said, “Do you think I’m joking about the successor of the conglomerate?”

Melinda still couldn’t believe it. Unable to hold betoned at Adam and asked loudly, “Have you lost your mind?” “The successor of the Foster Family conglomerate is Skyler. Skyler is your eldest son and has been, in the company for so long. Gwen, a young girl, inherits the company. Isn’t that absurd?”

Having been influenced by her family for many years, Melinda also had a strong preference for males over fernales, Gwen was speechless, “You’re talking about me as if I’m just a little girl.”

Her mothe was really contradictory and amusing.

Adam was a chless. “This is not feudal times, and our family has no imperial thrae to inherit. The whole society advocates gender equality. Why can’t Gwen inherit the company? I beliee she is capable.”

In his mind, there was no difference between his son and daughter inheriting the company.

Whoever has the ability should take charge, and strength is the ultimate criterion.

Melinda was going crazy. “How can you be like this? The Foster Family conglomerate clearly belongs t Skyler.”

She looked at Adam with suspicion and asked, “Did Gwen work with Simone and cursed you? Did she make you lose your mind?” That was what she believed in her heart.

Gwen sneered. “I am not you. Simone would never do such despicable things.”

Melinda glared at Gwen. “Shut up.”

Then she turned to Adam, her face full of anger, “You tell me!” She said forcefully, “Today, you must give me an explanation and an account.”

Skyle who was ahead of Adam, said first, “Mom, why do you think Dad would hand over the Foster Family’s years of hard work to an outsider to inherit?” Dad doesn’t care whether the company is inherited by a a daughter, but he does care if it’s the bloodline of the Foster Family.

oreover, ever since he found out that he was a b”stard and the medium of fortune, he had never coveted thought about fighting for the Foster Family’s property.

Upon hearing this, Melinda’s eyes narrowed, and she became even more flustered. “What nonsense are you talking about?”

Skyler sighed. “Mom, do you really think everyone here is a fool? Everyone knows that I am not Dad’s biological son. So, what gives you the confidence to let a b’stard child born from your affair shamelessly compete with the legitimate heirs of the Foster Family?” He despised his biological father, and his biological mother wasn’t much better.

Melinda widened her eyes. “This, this can’t be possible!” Then, she immediately looked at Adam, Leon, and O Gwen She found that their expressions were normal, without any hint of surprise.

Swas completely dumbfounded.

daca How could this be? How did they all find out? No hand’s attitude suddenly changed; he must have known about her affair and the illegitimate chuid.

She pondered for a moment, then looked at Adam with a pitiful and pained expression. ‘Honey, L… I was forced.”

Naturally, sl couldn’t admit that she had a man she loved.

She could only fabricate a story about having a son after being assaulted.

Adam raise row, “Melinda, do you still think I’m a fool?”

Melinda was not to speak, thinking of ways to win back her husband’s heart.

Just then, the butler entered with people from a special department.

The person leading them was Deputy Minister Joseph Presgrave.

Simone, being a member of the special department and a victim herself, came along as well.

Adam stood up as soon as he saw the group of people.

He had met Joseph before. “Deputy Minister Presgrave, hello!”

Joseph greeted with a smile. “Mr. Foster, hello! We have a serious case here that involves Melinda.

Now that the evidence is conclusive, we are here to arrest her.”

Then he took out the arrest warrant.

Adam took it and looked at it. “You are acting within the law, so I have no objections.”

Melinda had a bad feeling when she saw Simone and the others coming in.

Af hearing their conversation, she looked at Adam with shock in her eyes.

he couldn’t believe it and asked, “Honey, what did you say?”

n’s gaze towards Melinda was devoid of the previous tenderness and instead filled with coldness. “I you have committed a crime and should accept the punishment of the law Melanda took two steps back. “You… you want to abandon me? I haven’t committed any crime. They are Talsely accusing me. Honey, I can explain Skyler’s matter to you.”

She then reached out to grab Adam’s hand. “Please don’t let them take me away, okay?”

Adam shook off her hand. “Didn’t you hear what the people from the special department said? The evidence against you is conclusive. Melinda, I don’t have the power to save you. Besides, I won’t save you.

Melinda was puzzled. Why und her husband become so cold and heartless today?

“I am your wife! If I go to jail, you will be disgraced.”

Adam raised an eyebrow. “Can’t be disgraced if you have no grace to begin with.”

Melinda choked, wondering if there was something note with his brain today. She looked at him with tears in her eyes and pleaded for the first time, “Honey, for the sake of our many years of love, you must help me.”

She also realized the seriousness of the situation.

The special ‘epartment came to arrest her in person. If her husband didn’t help her, she would most likely end up in ind Adam ser extreme, much and ny years of love? Do you believe that yourself? Melinda, you are shar u have loved for so many years should be your adulterer, right? If apable, let him save you.”

less to the u love him so Melinda’s face instantly changed, her mouth trembling, and a hint of panic showed up. “I-I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

She denied it. “Did someone tell you something random? Where did this adulterer come from?”

Adam said coldly, “You don’t have to act anymore, and I don’t want to act either. Let’s be honest toda have never loved you. The reason I acted with you for so many years was for the Foster Family and deal with your lover and backer. And you were mistaken previously. We haven’t even gotten married, so what right do you have to claim to be my wife?” His eyes were filled with indifference. “I hereby declare that we are officially ending our relationship. From this moment on, Melinda, we have no connection, and you will never be able to enter the doors of my Foster Family.”

It was also due to Leon and Gwen, the two children, that Adam refrained from saying anythin too harsh.

For instance, Melinda was not even on par with a mistress.

Melinda widened her eyes, unable to believe it. “What do you mean? We didn’t get married? I clearly saw our marriage certificate”

Ada looked at her with a smile that lacked warmth. “What marriage certificate? Did you imagine it? We ne officially registered our marriage, let alone had a wedding celebration. We are not a couple at all.

We We merely cohabiting, so we can end our relationship at any time.”

felinda finally realized what was going on. “You, you have been scheming against me from the uning?” No wonder there were always issues when they attempted to obtain the marriage certificate, and then he claimed he would take care of it without her.

And then he continued to make excuses, postponing the wedding. But she still couldn’t fathom why a man who had loved her for so many years suddenly became so heartless.
