'Lewis, you dog! I'll make you pay for humiliating my sister and bullying my niece!' Reese thought as he hugged Adrienne, hiding his eyes that had turned cold.
The more he imagined the suffering his sister and Adrienne endured over the years, the more he was upset with himself. He should have defied his father's wishes a long time ago and protected them. With him around, Lewis Jiang and the rest of his family wouldn't have dared to bully his sister and Adrienne.
Adrienne opened her mouth but couldn't say anything in response. Since she had never met her uncle in her previous life, she had no expectations of him. If only she had met him before, perhaps she wouldn't have to lose everything.
"Many thanks, Uncle…" She answered, her eyes shining with tears. It would have been nice to have someone to rely on, but she didn't dare to raise her hopes for fear that Reese Zhao would disappoint her.
