Horace finallyposed himself and said calmly, "Yes, the results are in.”


    He reached out his hand, and the butler handled him the sealed paternity report.


    Brittany sprang to her feet, her eyes fixed anxiously on the sealed envelope. "Is Jessica really our daughter?"


    She didn''t have a good impression of Jessica. People always said mothers and daughters shared a special bond; Brittany loved her daughter deeply, but she never saw any warmth or closeness from Jessica.


    It felt strange.


    She seriously doubted Jessica was truly their biological child.


    "The DNA report just came back. I know how anxious you are about it; I didn''t even get a chance to look at it before bringing it right here," Horace said. (1)


    When it came to their daughter, Horace knew Brittany well. Brittany had nearly died giving birth to her, so there was no way they would take their child''s identity lightly.


    "Then stop talking and open the report!" Brittany urged. "I want to see the results."


    Horace nodded. "Alright."


    He began to break the seal on the report.


    At that moment, a familiar voice sounded outside the door. "Where''s Ms. Brewer?


    I need to see her."


    It was Jessica-she had arrived.


    The receptionist blocked her path. "Do you have an appointment?


    "Appointment? Do you know who I am? I''m the daughter of the richest man, your CEO''s daughter! Do I really need an appointment to see my mother? Step aside! I''m going in right now." Jessica screeched.


    Still the receptionist stood firm. "So you''re Ms. Larson. Hello. But Ms. Brewer and Mr. Larson are inside discussing important matters, and don''t want to be disturbed. Please wait here for a moment. I''ll inform them you''re here."


    Jessica stood just outside, her nerves taut as she heard the receptionist say that Horace was inside.


    So, her father was really here.


    What were they doing in there? Were they looking over the DNA test results? Was her true identity about to be exposed?


    Jessica couldn''t bear to imagine the nightmare that would unfold if her secret came out.


    This was Horace, the legendary business titan, and Brittany, the CEO of Brewer Enterprise.


    Jessica was determined to stop them from knowing the truth.


    Most importantly, she could never let Wendy reim her identity. Horace and


    Brittany could never find out that Wendy was their real daughter.


    Jessica tried to push her way inside. "No need to inform anyone! I''m going in to see my parents."


    "Ms. Larson, you can''t just barge in."


    As the standoff continued outside, Horace said to Brittany, "Jessica''s here!"


    Brittany didn''t look up from the DNA report but urged, "Ignore her for now. Open it now. I need to know if she''s our daughter. I


    need to see the results!"


    "Alright."

    Horace tore open the sealed envelope and pulled out the DNA test results.


    Brittany''s eyes narrowed as she scanned the page.


    Suddenly, with a loud bang, the office door was pushed open. Jessica had forced her way inside.


    She was Ms. Larson, after all-the receptionist dared not truly block her, so she seeded in barging in.


    Jessica called out, "Dad! Mom!"


    The receptionist apologized. "I''m so sorry. Ms. Larson insisted oning in."


    Brittany didn''t even nce at Jessica.


    She was frozen, staring at the DNA report that proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that Jessica was indeed their biological daughter. 25
