Chapter 459 The Family Pedigree
"I have met Zack just now. Maybe Daryl hasn't seen me yet."
As soon as she finished her words, Alice took a piece of cake from the hand of Clarence and handed it to Daryl.
"Daryl, try this cake."
Daryl didn't respond, but Lyman, who was standing beside her, took it over.
"Daryl doesn't like it. I will try it! I'm Lyman. I'm your elder cousin!"
Lyman smiled and said, "Alice, you look a little familiar. Did you just come back from abroad?"
"Yes." Alice nodded with a gentle smile.
Lyman nodded and said, "You look like a person we know. But that person is just a contemptible scoundrel. We have already driven her out of D City in dejection." The smile on Alice's face didn't change.
Holding Alice's hand, Clarence said gently, "Since you've got the cake, we will leave you alone, brother."
Zack nodded.
After they left, Daryl looked at the man beside her in surprise.
"It's her."
Looking into her eyes, Zack nodded and said in a low voice, "I didn't expect that she would be with Clarence in such a short time!"
Obviously, Candida came back to make troubles.
In particular, she was in a relationship with Clarence!
"But..."
Daryl was shocked. It was unbelievable, but she could only sigh.
Now it seemed that Clarence was really not simple. He could even hook up with Candida.
"What's going on, Lyman?"
Raelyn looked at Lyman in confusion.
"I'll tell you when we get back."
Lyman waved his hand, "It's very complicated."
"Okay."
Zack passed the cake to them. He didn't want to eat the birthday cake.
"Don't worry."
Zack held Daryl's hand and comforted her in a low voice, "I'm here."
Daryl looked at him and nodded.
But she was still a little worried.
It seemed that what Baylee said was true!
It seemed that Baylee had known that Candida would come back, but how did she know that?
Daryl felt that there were countless questions in her heart, but she could not find out any answer!
Not long after, Cannon sent the butler to take Zack, Daryl, Lyman and the others to the private room to see him.
The Butler stood still and waited for them after he passed on Cannon's words.
Daryl took a look at Zack and suddenly remembered what Rickey had told her. She held his hand and said, "Let's go and have a look." "Okay."
Zack held her hand and was about to leave.
The Butler led the way.
Outside the private room.
The Butler opened the door. There were some family members inside.
Including Rickey and Jazlyn.
Zack walked in with Daryl and several people behind him.
"Daryl."
Seeing Daryl, Jazlyn walked up to her and reached out to hold her hand.
"Aunt."
Daryl greeted her in a low voice.
Jazlyn nodded and said to Zack, "Sit down first. Your father has something to talk about later."
Zack nodded and then everybody sat down.
When almost everyone was in the room, Cannon began his speech.
"Well, you all know that I don't want Clarence to go back to A Country again. It is so far away. So I want to add Clarence's name into the pedigree. He is going to be engaged to Alice. It wouldn't be appropriate if his name isn't in our pedigree and he doesn't have a separate villa to live in!"
Hearing Cannon's words, everyone was silent.
Although these people had already knew what he would do next after he admitted Clarence's identity at the banquet today.
But they didn't expect it to come so soon.
If the name of Clarence was added to the family pedigree, it meant that he was really one of the young masters of the Ji Group!
Some people turned to look at Zack.
Even a mean woman like Rylee looked at Zack hesitantly.
Although she had a close relationship with Karla, it depended on Zack at this critical moment!
"I object."
A lazy voice came from the side of Zack.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Lyman.
Lyman shrugged, "Although my objection is not important. I just want to ask, why do you all forget your promise so soon? When my aunt left, she was heartbroken, wasn't she? Someone even said that her or her son's name would never be written down on the Ji clan's family pedigree in her life."
As he spoke, he looked in the direction of Karla.
Karla held Cannon's hand under the table nervously.
Cannon frowned and said, "It has
been so many years. Now we can only say that things have changed. Isn't it enough for her to keep her promise for so many years?" "But my cousin has lost his mother for so
many years." It was the first time that Daryl had seen such a cold expression on Lyman's face.noveldrama
All of a sudden, due to the confrontation of Lyman, everyone kept silent.
fet
So many years had passed. Indeed, if no one mentioned it again, the people who knew about the promise at present would probably not say it out in a tacit way.
However, Lyman was so bold that he dared to say anything!
However, Jazlyn and Brody didn't feel embarrassed at all.
Even in Jazlyn's heart, she praised her son for what he did!
"Not so many years have passed."
Luca suddenly said sarcastically, "I thought you would only be so cold and ruthless to outsiders. I didn't expect you treat your family like this, too! What a long life! Karla, right? How did you kneel in front of Zack's mother and promise to Rickey?"
As he said, he looked fierce, "Do you
think everyone present is stupid, or do you think we were too young to remember anything? Who said that as long as she could stay with
Cannon for the rest of her life ne
would be satisfied? If your son's name is in the family pedigree, is he going to scramble for the Ji Group's property next?"
Karla's face turned pale when she heard Lyman and Luca's words.
"I'm sorry, Cannon."
She whispered to Cannon beside her, with an expression of grievance and forbearance on her face.
Cannon was also unhappy to be humiliated by the younger generation one after another. These people dared not to respect him! "Well, it's all my idea. Why do you all blame her?"
"Besides, I'm the head of the family. Don't I have the right to include my son in the family pedigree?"
What do you think?
