Horace’s voice was calm but filled with a sense of urgency as he asked about his daughter .
The reason Horace had been out of the public eye for so many years was no longer a secret . Everyone knew now that he had been tirelessly searching for his long – lost daughter .
For years , no one had found any trace of her .
And now , Horace had appeared here , asking the Crone family where his daughter was .
Halsey was struck with shock . “Oh my god ! Could his daughter be here with us ? ”
Cecelia also couldn’t believe it . “ The daughter of the world’s richest man is here , among us ? ”
Harry looked at Horace with a calm expression . “ Mr. Larson , your daughter is right here . ”
Horace’s eyes widened as he asked , “Where ? ”
Harry pointed , directing Horace’s gaze toward Jessica . “ Jessica is your biological daughter . ”
Suddenly , all eyes were on Jessica . She froze , completely unaware of what was happening . No one had told her about this .
Horace slowly turned his head , his gaze locking onto her .
Thump ! Thump !
Jessica could feel her he
art pounding in her chest , her pulse racing . Everything around her seemed to blur .
What was happening ? Was she really the daughter of the world’s richest man ?
It was mindblowing .
At that moment , the two bodyguards who had been holding her back suddenly collapsed to the ground as Horace’s men swiftly moved to take them out .
Jessica stood there , stunned , still unable to process the situation . She turned to Harry in confusion . “ Dad , what’s going on ? ”
Harry stepped closer .
“Jessica , I’ve been hiding something from you . You’re not my biological daughter . I brought you back from the Capital years ago . You’re the biological daughter of Horace Larson , the world’s richest man . ”
What ?

Jessica’s breath caught in her throat as she struggled to comprehend Harry’s words .
Lilian stepped forward , her voice filled with excitement . “ What are you waiting for ? This man right here is your real father !”
Jessica turned to Horace , and he returned her gaze . Their eyes locked , and for a brief moment , time seemed to stand still .
Horace turned to Harry . “ Do you have any proof ? ”
Harry nodded . “ Yes . ”
He pulled out a delicate hairpin .
It was a diamond hairpin , clearly valuable beyond measure .
As Horace’s eyes fell on the hairpin , a ripple of emotion passed through his usually calm expression .
“ This hairpin was left to Jessica by her mother when she was born , ” Harry continued . “ I’ve carried it all these years . Her mother said that when this hairpin was presented , you would know the truth about Jessica’s heritage . ”
Horace reached out , carefully taking the hairpin from Harry .
The cool metal of the pin contrasted with the warmth of his fingers as he held it , treating it like a rare , priceless treasure .
Jessica still couldn’t quite believe it . “ A – Am I really … ? ”
Edith’s voice rang out with joy . “ Yes , Jessica ! You’re the daughter of the world’s richest man ! ”
Lilian smiled warmly . “ You were once a lost princess . And now , your real father has come to find you . ”
It was as though a new door had opened for Jessica , a glimmer of hope at the darkest moment of her life . She had never , in her wildest dreams , imagined having such a powerful background .
The world’s richest man , Horace , was her real father .
Haha … Hahaha!
Jessica felt a laugh bubble up inside her , a mixture of disbelief and joy . She was overwhelmed , happier than she had ever been in her life .
Horace stepped toward her , his arms outstretched .
“ Come here . Give your old man a hug . ”
