Angela continued, “I heard Horace found his long–lost daughter. We have a marriage agreement with the Larson family. His daughter is your fiancée. Have you met your fiancée yet?”

Stanley stood tall by the floor–to–ceiling windows, his figure bathed in the dim light. “Mom, that engagement was something you and the Larson family arranged. I won’t recognize this agreement.”

“What do you mean by that?” Angela’s voice rose in pitch.

“I won’t marry Uncle Horace’s daughter.”

“What?!” Angela’s voice suddenly shot up. “Are you saying you want to break off the engagement?”

Stanley remained silent.

Angela’s voice grew sharper. “Our families have been allies for generations! The bond between our two families is best preserved through marriage. That’s the most stable way to continue the legacy. As the heir of the Hawk family, don’t tell me you don’t understand that!”

Stanley’s sharp features remained unchanged as he stood still, not saying a word.

“Is there some other woman involved?” Angela’s voice lowered with a tone of warning.‘ Those women you’re involved with, you can have fun with them, but remember, that’s all they ou can have fun with them, but remember, that’s all they are–temporary distractions. Do you understand? Before, Horace hadn’t found his daughter. Now that he has, you need to get rid of all those other women to make room for the heiress of the world’s richest family!”

Angela didn’t give Stanley a chance to respond.

“Stanley, I can turn a blind eye to the women around you, but don’t cross the line. If you do, I’ll step in.”

With that, Angela hung up the phone abruptly.

Zayn stepped forward, his tone low. “Mr. Hawk, you know how Mrs. Angela operates. If she finds out about Ms. Wendy, things can get complicated.”

Stanley’s gaze turned cold and deep, like a dark, frozen lake. No one could tell what he was thinking at that moment.

“I understand. You can leave now.”

“Alright, Mr. Hawk.”

Meanwhile, the Crone family’s estate was lit up with lights and decorations, celebrating Horace’s arrival.

In the living room, Horace sat comfortably on the sofa, and Edith personally brought over a cup of tea. “Mr. Larson, please have some tea.”

Jessica sat beside Horace, holding his arm with both hands. She felt an overwhelming affection for him, and couldn’t help but wonder why no one had ever told her about her true background before. 1

Jessica even began to resent Harry and Lilian. Why had she lived in the small Crone family’s estate when she should have been living in the Capital? After all, she was the daughter of the wealthiest man!

Her eyes shining, Jessica looked up at Horace. “Dad, why did it take you so long to find me?”

Horace gently patted her head. “I’ve been looking for you all these years, but I couldn’t find

you.‘

“What about my mom? Why didn’t she come to find me?”
