“Even if your father had not rescued her, the fishermen who were there would have. Regardless, she‘ll
still be alive. But it‘s different for your case...” Jada said earnestly. “If Adeena had not shown up, if it
wasn‘t for her blood being compatible with yours, if it wasn‘t for the successful exchange transfusion,
you would be dead now...” “Alright, alright. Stop it!” Ruth stood up, upset. “Don‘t ever tell her that she
saved me. Or else, she‘ll act even more arrogantly in front of me!” She swung her hand and walked into
the banquet hall.
Jada sighed.
The Willis family had taken great pains to save their daughter.
After a decade, they finally found Adeena, whose blood matched Ruth‘s. They went against Adeena‘s
will and forced her to go through the exchange transfusion operation with Ruth.
At that time, Adeena was pregnant.
After that surgery, Ruth slowly recovered.
On the other hand, Adeena was in a coma for a year. When she woke up, she had lost her memories.
They then adopted her out of guilt and also because of her alluring appearance. Ruth walked directly
towards Jack. Jada‘s expression darkened. ‘I‘ve told Ruth multiple times that I‘m setting Jack and
Deena up. Why is she still approaching him?!
“Hey, Jack” Ruth walked over with a smile. “You look so handsome today, I almost didn‘t recognize it.”
Jack smiled. “Ruth, I have a question. Does your adoptive sister have a boyfriend?”
Ruth‘s face stiffened.
‘Ever since Adeena was adopted into the Willis family, whenever the people in Cloud City talk about us,
they‘ll always bring up Adeena first before remembering that I‘m the eldest daughter of the family! ‘Jack
and I grew up together. Now, even he thinks about Adeena first before asking about me! This is so
infuriating!‘ “Jack, don‘t you know? My mother is planning to marry her to you,” she said with a smile.
Jack‘s eyes lit up. “Really?”
Ruth was furious when she saw how overjoyed he was.
Because the two families were very close, Ruth had been infatuated with Jack ever since they were
young. However, he had such an unconventional lifestyle and was always changing partners.
Every time he had a new girlfriend, Ruth would be pushed aside. Gradually, her heart became cold,
and she no longer thought about marrying him. Even though Jack was promiscuous, the Finnian family
was still one of the most powerful families in Cloud City.
‘Adeena is just an adoptive daughter. Who is she to be Mdm. Finnian?‘
“You don‘t deserve an unidentified adoptive daughter.” Ruth blinked.
“Let me tell you a secret. A few days ago, I accompanied her to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor
said that she had had a baby before. Shh, don‘t spread this news, okay? Jack, I‘m only telling you this
secret because we‘re close. Don‘t sell me out, alright?” Jack grasped the goblet tightly.
