My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna) novel Chapter 135

Seeing how straightforward I was, Valerie smiled and said, "Hey, can't I even have a casual chat with you?"

Pedro, on the other hand, started saying, "We felt that you were awfully familiar when we first got to know you. And I'm sure you already know it, we have reunited with our daughter recently. But we still feel that it's destined that we met you. If you don't mind, Miss Reid, we'd like to adopt you as our goddaughter."

I frowned. Knowing that things wouldn't happen without any reason, I said in reply, "Meeting you two is a good fortune on my part. But I think you two should get to the topic."

Valerie's face fell. She paused for a moment before saying, "Miss Reid, you should be aware of the relationship between Mr. Roberts and Andrea, right?"

Did they come to speak on behalf of their daughter?

I smiled and nodded, then I said calmly. "Yes, I am. Madam Lawson, are you attempting to convince me to divorce Hendrix so that your daughter can be with who she loves?"

The two looked very awkward. However, they were still people with grace, so Valerie continued guiltily, "Miss Reid, I do understand how you would feel about this. To be frank, Pedro and I had given it a lot of thought before deciding to meet you. I hope that you can understand my bias towards my daughter."

I nodded, not feeling anything in particular. I said, "Hendrix and I are a legally married couple. By coming to me for this, it shows that you two have not thought things through. Besides, even if I did want to divorce and give my position to Miss Burton, she'll still need Hendrix's approval. Moreover, I am three months pregnant. I am as much a parent as you both are, so what should I consider for my child's sake?"

Pedro was a businessman, so naturally, he prioritized profit and interest before anything else. Upon hearing what I said, he put a gold card in front of me and said, "Miss Reid, you don't have to worry about your child's future. The amount of money in this card will be sufficient for you to buy a house in Jarold City. If you encounter any problem in the future, you can come to me. I'll help you with everything."
