William thought for a moment and dialled Fandrey’s number, “Grandpa, Uncle took Angel to meet Emily, do you know about this?”
“What? When did this happen?” Fandrey asked.
“Uncle took Angel to meet Emily and Azalea in the Wolf Group. I heard that the atmosphere was good. Are they going to reconcile?”
“I don’t think Callum has mentioned this to me before. Even if he wanted them to recognize each other, he has to inform your grandmother and me first, right? Isn’t it silly for him to make his own decisions without even asking us?” Fandrey asked with surprise and anxiousness.
“Angel has been in contact with the Laban siblings. Do you think she planned this meeting because she wanted to cause some trouble for Emily? Ornard is so vicious and Emily is a weak woman. What if they kill her? Does he want to kill Emily?”
“Maybe Uncle has convinced Angel and asked her to hide this matter?”
“How can she be so ungrateful? She’s still the same as ever!” Fandrey laughed coldly. “I can see that she doesn’t have any family affection in her heart. She is heartless, vicious, and she’s willing to scheme against us all. What is Emily to her? She’s nothing but a stranger to Angel.”
Fandrey was direct and he did not hide his hatred of Angel. William’s heart skipped a beat. “Angel is so vicious that she doesn’t resemble the Floyd family at all. Grandfather, have you ever doubted her?”
“What are you suspecting her for?”
“Have you suspected Angel is not a member of the Floyd family?” William replied. “You and your maternal grandmother are both so kind. Could Angel have been exchanged at birth?”
“William, do you suspect that Angel is not a child of the Floyd family? How is that possible? Your uncle’s most trusted bodyguard, David, carried her back. To mitigate the risk, I personally arranged for Sammuel to do a DNA test. Angel is a member of the Floyd family, but she’s so vicious. I think it should be related to Emily’s viciousness and Veronica’s twisted teachings.”
Fandrey was also an experienced man who had deliberately done the DNA test to prevent mistakes. Unfortunately, he was a step too late. Ornard and Veronica were so cunning that they had planned this in advance to fool Fandrey. Needless to say, William knew that Fandrey’s DNA test had been replaced.
William had been thinking about how he should tell the truth to Fandrey. Although Angel was vicious and shameless, the Floyd family had raised her for more than 20 years. They would certainly feel heartbroken when they find out.
If they knew that Angel was not a child of the Floyd family, Fandrey and Deborah would definitely suffer a hard blow.
This matter couldn’t be rushed, and it had to be done step by step. If Fandrey and Deborah could start talking to Braelynn and eventually learn to like her, they would learn of the truth eventually.
His real granddaughter was a hundred times better than the impostor. William thought that Fandrey and Deborah would be able to accept it.
He did not continue, but he changed the subject instead. “How’s the preparation for the bidding going on?”
“I’ve made all the arrangements here. It will start tomorrow and the results will come out soon. Since Ornard is so greedy, we’ll give him as much as he wants.”
William burst into laughter. “Grandpa, are you going to bid tomorrow?”
“No, I’ll let Angel bring some of my staff there. We should let Ornard think that he defeated us and Angel can play along with him. The happier he is now, the more disappointed he will be in the future, right?”
“Yes, I think so too. As long as Paisley succeeds tomorrow, you’ll be entertained by what’s going to happen. I will never let you down with my plan.”
William chuckled and said after he hung up, “Dear, let’s go back the day after tomorrow!”
“Why did you shorten our trip? I want to enjoy this holiday with you for a few more days.” Valeria was unhappy.
“Be a good girl. It’s not suitable for you to run around because you’re pregnant now. We can come again after you give birth. The main thing is that I want you to go back and do a big task for me.”
“What is it?” Valeria became curious.
“I want you to bring Braelynn to meet Grandma and Grandpa every day. Let them like Braelynn and improve their relationship.”
“Well, I’ll help you, but what reward will I receive?”
“I’ll give myself to you as a present, okay?”
“No, you are mine anyway. Your gift is too lame.”
The city construction bid was held publically the next day. In the morning, Paisley brought the staff of Acma Corporation’ and arrived early in business suits.
There were more than ten companies that arrived at the site of bidding with her. When they saw Paisley leading Acma Corporation, they all looked at her in surprise and some people were still whispering about her.
“Did the Anthony family actually let her come? Is there no one else?”
“Hardy is in jail and Pierre is in the hospital to recover. Isn’t it her turn?”
“The viral hashtags are still vivid in my mind. Is there no one left in the Anthony family? How can they let such a scandalous person bid?”
Paisley sat calmly on the chair and she could faintly hear the discussion, but her expression did not change at all.
She wouldn’t be beaten down just because of such a small discussion. She even hooked up with Ornard, so what else couldn’t she do?
The people who were talking behind her back were all useless anyway. She would win the biggest bid today and see the expressions of these people who gossiped about her when the result was revealed. She believed that it would be very exciting.
As Paisley thought of this, she saw Angel with some of her staff as well. Angel also wore a professional suit today that she specially ordered in order to make a good appearance.
It was the first time for Angel to attend an occasion like this. She was a little nervous, but she tried to cheer for herself in her heart. She must win the bid today so that everyone would respect her.
Angel noticed Paisley’s gaze after she sat down. They looked at each other and saw that Paisley was wearing the same suit as her. At that moment, Angel’s face turned pale in an instant.
What the hell?! Now could she be dressed in the same suit as someone as notorious as Paisley?
Angel felt offended and she felt very unhappy, so she looked at Paisley coldly and averted her gaze.
Paisley naturally saw Angel’s attitude and sneered. “Is Angel looking down on me?”
Hehe, everything had changed. She was looking forward to the expression on Angel’s face when she became the younger girl’s legitimate aunt.
At 9:30 am, all the companies that participated in the bidding had arrived at the scene and the bidding began at 10.
Besides Paisley, who was smiling confidently because she was sure she would win, the representatives of the other companies were more or less a little nervous.
This was especially true for Angel because it was her first time. She could feel her heart thumping and she was praying in her heart, “Please help me! Don’t let anything bad happen”
After three hours of waiting, the results appeared on the big screen.
