Female Novel
Chapter 312
Chapter 312 Family Feud It was nighttime, and Fabian was happily making yet more online. purchases. With Wynter's arrival fast approaching, he wanted to welcome her with festivity, and that included redecorating her old bedroom.
The old man was beaming over his shopping conquests when Shane showed up. He used to be furious with Shane and his incompetence, but now, he simply let the latter ramble on.
Fabian sat there and listened to Shane talk until the cows came home.
When Shane had nothing more to say, Fabian tightened his grip on his cane and looked up at his son before saying, "I won't agree to this."
Shane's brows furrowed. "I don't understand why you won't accept Naomi as a part of our family!"
Naomi, who was standing next to Shane, interjected calmly, "Dad, please, no fighting with Grandpa. The matter of my adoption isn't a important as Grandpa's health. Let's talk things out slowly, all right?
Talking things out was the last thing Shane wanted. He had to suppress his rage as he demanded, "Give me a reason why you won't agree to the adoption, Dad."
Fabian asked curtly, "Have all these years made you forget that you still have a daughter out there somewhere, Shane?"
Naomi faltered at this. She had never seen Fabian so distant and grave before. In the past, a fight would have already broken out between him and Shane. But now, the old man looked like he had Chapter 312 Family Feud already won.
While Naomi pondered Fabian's strange demeanor, Shane inhaled sharply and countered, "Dad, no one was more heartbroken than Marie and I when we lost our little princess. But there's no point in grieving like this any longer.
"The upstairs nursery has looked the same since we lost her. We have to move on." Tears pricked his eyes as he said this.
Fabian kept his cool gaze on Shane and spat, "We will move on after we find our little princess, dead or alive. In case you're wondering, she's healthy and thriving, and certainly no longer lost as you claim. She's more brilliant than anyone I've ever met!"
Hearing this, Shane gaped at Fabian in disbelief. "Dad, are you saying that... our little princess is..."
"Found," Fabian finished Shane's sentence for him, his gaze darkening. "And she'll be returning soon. Adopting someone els this juncture seems rather inappropriate, don't you think?"
Shane paled, and so did Naomi. She couldn't believe what Fabian jus said. If the Quinnells' long-lost daughter had been found, then what would become of Naomi? Naomi felt her legs go weak at the thought.
"You found our little princess?" Shane stepped forward as if to confront his father. "When? Why didn't you tell me sooner?"
"I'm telling you now, aren't I?" Fabian drawled. He no longer felt any rage toward Shane, only disappointment. He said a little too calmly," Go and get ready to bring her home.
Shane couldn't wrap his head around this unexpected development.

Slowly, delight gleamed in his eyes as he asked Fabian earnestly," Dad, do you have a picture of her? Who does she take after, me or Marie?"

The question and the excitement in Shane's tone appeased Fabian, who answered impatiently, don't have picture of her. Just wait until she comes home and you can see for yourself."
Shane looked like he was raring to go. "Where is she now? I'll go and pick her up!"
"She's on her way back to Kingbourne." Fabian kept his answer vague.
Meanwhile, Naomi was silent as she bit her l*p. Her lowered gaze filled with anger and spite.
She didn't understand why Fabian decided to spring such news & them instead of informing them in advance. It was as if he had nev considered Naomi's feelings.
But Shane was oblivious to Naomi's resentment. He was basking in joy as the news of his little princess' return sank in.
Naomi, on the other hand, began to fret over her position in the Quinnell family. Now that the long-lost heiress had been found, what would they do with an outsider like Naomi?
