NovelBarChapter 495 "Edgar, you've truly disappointedtoday." Declan's voice was heavy with what seemed like regret, but Edgar knew better. This was no mere disappointment. It was a severing of ties.
"Declan, I have more pressing matters to attend to. I suggest you focus on matter of Shelia and Juan," Edgar shot back before turning to leave.
Chace scurried after him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt*Sir, are we just leaving like this?" "Or what? This is just ridiculous.' "But sir, even though Miss Blair fainted, we could still push for a DNA test. Once Declan finds out..." "Don't you get it? Declan knows Shelia isn't his daughter and refuses to acknowledge the real Jade." "What?" Edgar grunted, "This old fox is much shrewder than I thought. In public, he would never acknowledge a daughter who went to prison for prostitution." Chace was astounded, not expecting Declan, who had been desperate to find Jade, would be unmoved by her suffering over the years.
Edgar had regarded Declan as an easy mark, but a veteran CEO like Declan was no fool.

"Blood is thicker than water. She may prove useful in the future." "Understood." Edgar cast one last glance back at the grand estate, his eyes narrowing to slits." Juan, you've really surprised me, but this is not over." Inside the mansion, Declan led Shelia upstairs to find Juan.
Debra excused herself. "I'll leave you to your affairs. I'll be downstairs." "Okay."

Michael's eyes were wide with concern. "What's going on? How did you reconcile with Juan? Weren't 上 you..." Debra waved a dismissive hand. "It's all a show."
