Chapter 1816: Fair Henderson

Mufron.

The Henderson family bank.

This was the new building Justin had recently purchased. After leaving Pascaylia, he moved the bank's headquarters here.

Today, his assistant brought a young girl. The girl had fair and delicate skin, beautiful features. Her eyes were like black pupils, with a crystalline brilliance in them. It was none other than Fair who was captured in Pascaylia.

"Uncle, it's you!" Fair was especially surprised when she saw Justin. She had an extremely deep impression of this gentle and handsome uncle. The thrilling scene that happened in the harbor parking lot back then still seemed vivid whenever she recalled it.

"Yes, it's me. You will never be bullied again."

Justin looked at Fair gently. After coming to Mufron, he learned what had happened to Fair being taken away. He used a lot of funds and many channels before finally finding out the one who took Fair was called Athena. He also learned a little about the entanglement between Athena, Joyce and Luther. He found Athena's base. Unexpectedly, he really found Fair.

Athena's people in Mufron were keeping a tight watch originally, but for some reason they had lowered their guard recently, allowing him to take action and successfully rescue Fair.

"Thank you, Uncle." Fair blinked her bright eyes and asked, "Is Anderson okay now? Is he safe? He hasn't encountered any more danger, right?"

"Yes." Justin hadn't contacted Joyce for a while, as he didn't want to disturb her too much.

"That's great. As long as he's fine. Otherwise I would feel guilty forever. Uncle, I really didn't betray him. I didn't know anything. I was framed." Fair pleaded, looking miserable.

After being captured, she didn't have it good. Her little face had become so thin there was barely any meat left. Perhaps because she was of no more use, Athena didn't care whether she lived or died. She often went a whole day without a meal. Just when she thought death was near, it was Uncle Henderson who saved her.

Justin smiled. "Of course I believe you. You are just a kind child. Don't worry, you are safe now."

Fair nodded. Although she was happy, there was still a trace of loneliness in her expression.

Even if she was saved, where could she go afterwards? An orphanage? After all, she was a homeless orphan without parents.

She suddenly looked up timidly at Justin, "I have an unreasonable request. Can I say it?"

Justin squatted down to look at her eye to eye.

He gently asked, "Go ahead, it's alright."

"Uncle Henderson, can you adopt me?" Fair spoke her mind. "I really like math. In the future I will study hard and get into the best finance university. When I grow up, I will work for you to repay your kindness."

Justin chuckled.

He reached out and touched the top of her head.

"Silly child, I was already planning to adopt you. Otherwise where could you go? Don't worry, since I saved you, I won't abandon you. I will raise you and support your education. I will send you to the best universities in the world. To get your Masters and PhD. In the future you can even have shares in the Henderson family bank. I will treat you like my own daughter."

He meant every word. He probably wouldn't ever get the chance to marry in this lifetime, so Fair was like his last spiritual sustenance. It was obvious Fair was a math genius. Last time he already discovered her extraordinary talent. Given time and careful nurturing, she would surely be able to take finance to the pinnacle. Officially adopting Fair, the Henderson family bank would also have an heir.

Additionally, if Fair and Anderson's affinity continued, that would be his personal wish.

He could see that Anderson cared a lot about Fair. If they did end up together in the future, his connection with Joyce wouldn't be severed either. For him, just seeing Joyce happy would be enough.
