I was raised by my mother, a single parent who never revealed the identity of my father. For years, that part of my life remained a mystery until her final moments. With her last breath, she asked me to find him. I shared this with my best friend, who had never known her own parents. With tears in her eyes, she confided in me that she longed for a father, too. She tried to manipulate me, suggesting I work as a housekeeper for my father so she could claim him as her own. Soft-hearted, I agreed to the plan. When I finally met him, he was stunned. The resemblance between me and his first love was undeniable. He wanted to take me under his wing as his mistress. "Come to my room tonight and wear something… revealing," he said. To protect myself, I laid all my cards on the table.

Chapter 2 I'm Thomas Wrenn's Daughter

"Do you know about the rivalries that come with being born into a wealthy family?"As I listened to Susan's animated description, I found myself captivated. "No, I don't."With a snap of her fingers, she continued, "It's all about disputes over inheritance. You're going into this blind—who knows if he wants to acknowledge you? "And what about your half-siblings? But if you let me help you connect with him, you can observe how your father and his family react."Her words began to make sense, and I found myself nodding along. "You've got a point."A satisfied grin spread across her face. "If they reject you and toss you aside, I can step in for you. That way, I get a taste of family life, and you avoid any potential traps. It's a win-win!""But…" I hesitated. "But I really want to meet my father."Susan grasped my shoulders. "Easy! Your father must need a housekeeper. You could work for him!"I pondered the situation from every angle, but something still felt off.Yet, as Susan

Chapter 3 The Joyful Reunion

My father slowly reached out as if to touch my face. "You… You're…""Dad! I'm right here!" Susan's voice cut through the moment, her feet stomping in frustration behind me.His eyes widened in surprise, and for the first time, he truly noticed Susan. Glancing between the two of us, he asked, "Which of you is Miranda's child?"Susan's expression shifted, and she suddenly collapsed to the ground in a flood of tears."Mom, you left too soon! How am I supposed to survive on my own? Dad doesn't even want to acknowledge me! Even on your deathbed, you were still thinking about him!""What? Miranda is gone?"The news hit him hard. His face fell, and shadows of sorrow clouded his eyes.He let out a heavy sigh, lost in thought. "Get up, child. Please, get up. Why didn't you come to me sooner?"He lifted Susan into his arms, their reunion unfolding with an emotional embrace before the grand mansion."I've spent my life struggling with Mom, barely scraping by. We'd have one meal and then

Chapter 4 The Wrenn Family

When Susan saw my expression, a trace of shame flashed in her eyes. Then, she said, "It's fine, Dad. Let's go in." Cheerfully, she wrapped her arms around my father's and skipped alongside him.Trailing behind them and watching them together, I could only wish for tomorrow to come sooner so that Susan would return my father to me.Once we entered the mansion, I was arranged to live with the servants. I changed into a nanny's uniform and swept the fallen leaves in the yard. From there, I watched as Susan lounged by the pool, basking in the sun while enjoying a full-body massage.At this point, my father had already gone out. A surge of suspicion crept into my heart, and I couldn't hold back any longer. I grabbed the broom and stormed toward Susan."Susan! Why didn't you let me in earlier?"At that moment, Susan was sitting on a lounge chair with sunglasses on while enjoying a foot massage. When she saw me approaching, she quickly stood up and sent the servants away.Remo

Chapter 5 Two-Faced

As the tape came off, I finally took in a breath of fresh air.Behind Thomas, Susan frantically gestured for me to stay quiet."I am…" I began, but before I could finish, Susan rushed over, covering my mouth and pulling me aside."Dad, give me a moment. I need to have a chat with her."Once we were out of sight, I shoved her away. She stumbled, falling to the ground."Susan, I trusted you too much! I'm going to tell my father the truth right now!"With a loud thud, Susan dropped to her knees.I was shocked by her reaction, not understanding what she was trying to do.Susan clasped her hands and pleaded, "Please don't tell him the truth, Amber. I'm begging you. "Thomas has already spent about 100 million on me. If you tell him now, I'll be guilty of fraud. For that much money, I'll be in prison for life!"Her words left me stunned. I hadn't realized things had escalated to this extent."This is your fault. If you hadn't let my father buy you all this…""He bought it himself

Chapter 6 Being Called Upon

"She keeps badmouthing me and is a cunning person. I don't like her at all. You promised you'd always love me the most, so why are you choosing a morally corrupt maid over me?" Susan's voice whined from upstairs.Thomas didn't respond right away. Susan continued, "You should kick that woman out and blacklist her from our family, so she can never come near us again!"It was clear Thomas was reluctant. "We'll discuss this later. Give Amber a chance to prove herself. And don't bring this up again." His tone turned serious.After that, silence fell from upstairs.At this moment, I was infuriated.Susan was clearly a two-faced bitch. Here I was, worrying about what would happen if the truth came out and she went to jail. Yet, she was trying to kick me out of the house. How could I have been so blind to trust her?In a fit of anger, I threw the rag onto the table.I had enough. I was ready to expose everything.Just then, my father's bodyguard walked over.Noticing his approach,

Chapter 7 The Truth

I slapped myself and cried out again, "Dad!"At that moment, my father was shirtless, a blanket barely covering his lower body. Hearing my words, he panicked, hurriedly wrapping a towel around himself."What's going on?" he asked, frantically covering every inch of exposed skin.Kneeling, I bowed my head low. "Dad! I'm your real daughter!"The shock of the truth nearly made my father faint. He started hitting his head, muttering to himself, "I almost did something terrible! I may be a pervert, but I'm not a monster!"That night, my father bombarded me with questions about my mother.I answered every one of them in detail, even providing more information than he asked for. To be sure, his personal doctor was called in to conduct a paternity test.The results threw the entire household into chaos.Susan, who had been sleeping soundly, was yanked out of bed by my father's men.When my father saw her, his face contorted with disgust."Who are you?"Still groggy, Susan looked at

Chapter 8 Susan's Tricks

"I'll return the car and house to you, just don't send me to jail!"Soon, her words faded away.I sat on the sofa, too afraid to move, worrying that my father might take out his anger on me for my part in hiding the truth.Just then, my father came over, sitting beside me. He gently patted my back. "I'm sorry, my darling. I'm sorry you had to go through this."I shook my head and said, "It's nothing." After all, I had only just acknowledged him as my father—we had no emotional bond yet. Still, I couldn't let Susan take my place, regardless of how new our relationship was."Where will she go?" I asked, pointing in the direction Susan had been dragged away."I'll lock her up for now. Tomorrow, I'll decide what to do with her."Even as we talked, my mind was spinning, wondering if my father would really send Susan to jail.However, things took a turn when I woke up the next day.I was jolted awake by a loud commotion downstairs. I quickly dressed and rushed down to see what was

Chapter 9 The Family Fortune Will Not Be Yours

It turned out Rick and Susan were in this together all along. No wonder she hooked up with him so quickly."Rick, I don't care if you don't plan to acknowledge me, but at least be smart about who you're dating," I said, keeping my tone light and natural. There wasn't a trace of anger in my voice, which only made Susan bite her lip in frustration.Thomas overheard the insult to his first love, and without hesitation, he kicked Rick once more before throwing both of them out."I don't have a son like you!" he spat angrily.In the world of the wealthy, punishment rarely stopped at something so simple. That same day, Thomas froze Rick's accounts and took back every penny. He even threatened to send Susan to prison. Terrified, she returned the luxury cars and house she had just received.Susan thought she had secured herself a comfortable life by clinging to Rick, but little did she know that the very night his accounts were frozen, they didn't even have enough money to check int

Chapter 10 An Illegitimate Daughter Gets No Money

After Thomas spoke, it was as if Rick's soul had been drained from him."Go ahead, marry her. Keep your worthless life for the woman who loves you. I won't stand in your way anymore."With that, Thomas seemed to have made peace with the situation. I stood there, completely stunned. I couldn't even begin to imagine how many illegitimate daughters Thomas might have out there.The moment Rick saw Thomas nod, he bolted out of the room, grinning from ear to ear."Susan! Susan, my father agreed!" he shouted so loudly that the entire villa could hear him. Just like that, my former best friend was about to become my sister-in-law.It didn't take long before Rick's frozen bank accounts were unfrozen, and Susan wasted no time flaunting her newfound fortune on social media.'My husband bought me another new car today.''I told him I didn't need it, but he insisted on giving me a villa. Ugh, he's so annoying!'As if showing off online wasn't enough, she took advantage of Thomas being at
