Chapter 786
That wasn’t the impression Shane had , though; he thought that everything was once again right on track.
On top of that, Naomi had brought him good news.
Into Cascadia was starting to film. This time, it was not like the last time when everyone had just been talking about it in private. This was set in stone. It would also be broadcast live on Cascadia TV!
It was a mainstream program promoting the country’s culture, so everyone would want to be a part of it! On top of that, Naomi was not dispensable like the other guests. She was attending the program as a
cultural relic restorer.
One could only imagine the impact that it would have!
Shane was so happy that he opened a bottle of wine and poured Naomi a glass. “You’re the child who makes me the proudest.”
Once this program was on air, there would surely be a surge in patriotism. If Wynter could use that to her advantage, so could Shane.
By then, he would not care if Fabian agreed to it or not. He was going to hold a press conference and tell the media that he was going to officially adopt Naomi!
“I–I thought that you no longer wanted to have anything to do with me because of Wynter,” Naomi said with a little whimper, as if she were trying to hold back her tears.
“That’s why I’ve been working hard to make sure I got on this show. At the same time, I just want to tell
you
that I–I’m not after anything from the Quinnell family.”
Shane felt a little guilty. After all, he had raised her like she were his own daughter. He had a bond with
her.
Then again, Naomi had always been doted on. When had she ever had to suffer like that?
No one would think that she was eyeing the Quinnell family’s wealth. She had always been exceptional. If Wynter had not returned, they would not have ended up like this! Even Shane’s sons would not have become estranged from him.
At that moment, gossip and rumors were all over town. Marie was truly filing a divorce from him. More Importantly, if Declan hadn’t been helping him, those shareholders would;ve turned their backs on him as
well.
He was supposed to be the executive CEO of Quinnell Group and the head of the family! Those positions were destined to be his! But instead, he was being investigated and looked down on.
The resentment in Shane’s eyes deepened.
He realized he had lost his composure. He immediately resumed his gentle ways and caressed Naomi’s
hair.
“I have not been paying much attention to you. I’m sorry. Don’t worry; you are my only daughter.” Shane

said it as though he were making a decision.
“Some children have been living outside for far too long. They have long forgotten about their biological parents‘ circumstances. Neither would they understand. Sometimes, an adopted child is much better than one’s real child.
Naomi paused for a while. “Would my brothers…”
“They will understand this sooner or later. Don’t worry about it. Just do well in the program. Leave the rest
to me.”
Shane said from the bottom of his heart, “I will make you the most famous cultural relic restorer.”
At that moment, Chad chimed in excitedly. “Uncle Shane, that’s the way! Before Naomi returned, I was still a little worried. I was afraid that you would judge her.
“But people on the outside can see things clearly. That daughter of yours has no respect for you at all!
She does not wish you well at all!
“All she wants is to fight for power. She even made Naomi feel uncomfortable. What a scheming woman!”
