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.”
