“Uncle Donald, they've decided to haveadopted by you today. | would like to know your opinion.” Angela got

put on a well-maintained smile. “I was worried you would cling toand want to be my daughter, but since
you're so eager, it’s just as | wish. Tomorrow-"

happened? Why are you so angry?”
“It’s Angela Kins. She called to rush the adoption process!”

“Mom, Angela just wants to upset us with the marriage thing and doesn’t really want to cut ties with us. You
can’t take it seriously. What if she comes to her senses later on?”

“Fanny.” Scarlet looked gently at Fanny. “Don’t say anymore. This matter is already settled. Let's go and don’t let
it affect our mood. Let's buy the dress.”

massaging his temples with his hand.
