Chapter 1877


    Maisie widened her eyes in disbelief, her mind going nk as she froze in ce.


    Daniel tried to hold her shoulders, but she recoiled as if electrified. She stumbled back, her eyes


    revealing a trace of fear.


    “Maisie…”


    “Is what you’re saying true?” Maisie’s voice quivered. “This… This is too sudden, I…”

    Her words were incoherent. She didn’t know how to express the emotions flooding her at that moment.


    Panic? Confusion? Anger?


    It seemed like all of them, yet also like none of them.


    She couldn’tprehend how she suddenly transitioned from being Cindy’s daughter to the Newhouse


    heiress. She couldn’t understand why her parents had abandoned her in the first 20-some years of her


    life.


    She didn’t understand what she had done wrong to face this upheaval in her life…


    It was too dramatic!


    She wished she could consider it all a dream, hoping her life would be the same as before when she


    woke up.


    “I know it’s hard for you to ept it now, but it’s the truth!” Daniel licked his lips, inching closer. “Think


    about it calmly. If you were Cindy’s daughter, why is it that your entire family suffers from diabetes,


    except you? Are you lucky? No, it’s because your gic makeup differs from theirs!”


    Maisie felt dizzy as if someone was choking her, the suffocation climbing from her heart.


    Daniel had to continue despite the difficulty. “I’ve been investigating this, and Chris and Lena have


    been helping me. Chris witnessed Jodie visiting Owen together with Cindy at the rehab center. If they


    weren’t a family, why would Jodie do that?


    “Moreover, I’ve checked your DNA…” He paused. “You and Cindy have no blood rtion!”


    Tears welled up in Maisie’s eyes. Thinking about the past—the hardships she had endured from


    childhood and the injustices she had faced—she suddenly didn’t know what to say.


    “Arranging for you to meet Wilfred was also my idea,” Daniel said softly. “I could sense that Wilfred


    feels differently about you, but it’s not a romantic feeling… He doesn’t know this yet, but he will soon.”


    Maisie looked up at him. “Then, my mother…”Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated

    Daniel was about to reply when screeching brakes sounded from the hotel entrance.


    A luxury car stopped, and Wilfred got out of it in haste.


    He didn’t notice Daniel and Maisie in the lobby. Instead, he hurried toward the top floor conference


    room anxiously.


    Daniel held Maisie’s hand, taking another elevator to the top floor.


    Cordelia and Zephyr were already present inside the conference room. Zuko, Chris, and Lena were


    also there, each wearing a grave expression.


    Wilfred entered the room almost simultaneously with Daniel and Maisie.


    “Mr. and Mrs. Hamerton…” He was drenched in sweat, appearing extremely humble in front of Zephyr


    and Cordelia. He didn’t dare to sit, standing not far from the door. He was also slightly hunched, looking


    meek.


    Cordelia nced at him, already showing signs of displeasure.


    Wilfred pleaded, “As soon as I heard about this matter, I rushed over… I know, all the me lies with


    my daughter. How’s Mr. Toph now?”


    “What do you think?” Zephyr’s voice was icy. “She almost killed my son. How well do you think he’d be


    faring?”


    Wilfred dared not make a sound, standing silently in his ce.
