Chapter 805
Trisha watched Celeste talk with that soft voice while maintaining a poker face. If she hadn’t been looking at her face, just hearing her Celeste had fallen for Shawn’s schemes.
When it came to making it public, Shawn hesitated, “How…how do you want to announce it?”
she would’ve thought that
“We at least need to go through the adoption process, get it in the papers, make a will or something. So if you pass away, I won’t be left with nothing because of these two people.”
Shawn’s face stiffened a bit. He just wanted to use Celeste as a stepping stone, not give her any inheritance rights
“Celeste, its too early to talk about this. I’m still healthy. It’s not appropriate to make a will now And honestly, you’re too old to be adopted now. Aren’t you making things hard for me? But don’t worry, even without these two things, I still see you as my own daughter in everyone else’s eyes, you’re still my daughter, the legitimate heiress of the Campbell family. Whether you reconcile with Liam or remarry, the Campbell family will always be your backer”
The moment he mentioned Liam, Celeste instantly understood why Shawn had suddenly called her
Shawn’s the type of person who wouldn’t bother if there’s no benefit. Why on earth would he suddenly want to adopt her as his daughter? He probably heard or saw
something
With her eyes lowered Celeste said, “Without any proof, how can I believe what you say? I need to see your sincerity, don’t 17”
Shawn frowned. Celeste wasn’t so easily fooled. If he didn’t give up something he probably wouldn’t be able to convince her
“Of course, Daddy is sincere. After your grandfather passed away, he left a house. I had to mortgage it for business, but now I’ve redeemed it. The house is still under your mother’s name. After you get married, I’ll transfer the house to you as an inheritance. Of course, once you’re my daughter, I’ll give you more than just that ”
Celeste clenched her hand, her voice soft, “Would Helen agree to such a big thing? If she gets angry about this and loses the baby, you won’t blame me, right?”
Shawn was taken aback. “What baby?”
“Isn’t Helen pregnant? Such a big happy event, were you planning to keep it a secret?”
Shawn’s face hardened, “Who told you she’s pregnant?”
“My friend saw her going for a prenatal check, Celeste feigned surprise, “You didn’t know?
Shown pursed his lips, “She probably wasn’t ready to tell me yet.”
How good at making excuses for himself. Trisha saw Helen at the prenatal checkup over a month ago, and these two were still not ready to talk about it?
Knowing about Helen’s pregnancy, Shawn didn’t want to keep pestering Celeste. He just said, “Celeste, think about what I said. Having a status is better than being a nobody”
Okay”
After hanging up. Trisha couldn’t help but say, “How dare Shawn propose to adopt you? Does he think everyone is dying to be part of the Campbell family? That house originally belonged to Aunt Caitlyn. That pair of adulterers took over someone else’s property, how dare they even mention it?
And he wants to trick you into waiting until you get married to give you the house. Who are you marrying?”
“Liam”
Trisha was taken aback, “You’re getting back together with Liam?“
