Seeing that Adam was not saying anything, Lilin said, "Daddy, you can't do it, right? Then I suggest you go home now."
Adam frowned at his wife and daughter. "Why do you two want him to go back to his real wife and kids? What good does that bring to you?"
Melinda did not know where to begin, but Lilin answered righteously, "It doesn't bring us any good, but it's fair to Zachary! Daddy, you should know very well Zachary's real name isn't Zachary Finnix, but Jeremy Holden! Sophia brainwashed him into losing his memory because she wanted him for herself! She then gave him the name Zachary Finnix and told him they were husband and wife! But we all know he already had a wife and kids back home. Just think about what his real wife and kids must've been feeling to not know whether he's dead or missing. It's time we end this."
Adam became furious at Lilin telling the truth. "That's enough! You're not allowed to bring this matter up again. Zachary is our family now, and his past has nothing to do with him!"
Lilin looked at Adam disappointedly. "Does that mean you won't accept the condition?"
"That's a stupid condition, and you know it! Who taught you to meddle in our affairs and encourage your mother to make an unreasonable condition like that?"
"Hmph! How is that unreasonable? Everything I said was the truth, and you knew it! Daddy, you can't even tell what's wrong from what's right because you're so insistent on protecting Sophia! That's what Mom and I hate the most about you!"
Adam frowned and ignored her. He turned to Melinda instead, saying, "Mel, Lilin is still a kid, but you should know better. Come on, let's go home."
Adam's expression darkened. He leaned back into his sofa and took out his phone to call his subordinate, who was waiting outside. "Pack up my things from home and bring them over here."
"This is my friend's home! We don't welcome you here, so leave right now!" shouted Melinda angrily.
Lilin put his hands on her lips and said, "Yeah! Get out of Mommy's friend's house now! We don't welcome a stinky old man like you!"
