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

'I can take it, but when it comes to my mother, no way am I putting up with that,' I fumed inwardly. 'If I can't handle him, surely Dad can, right?'Remembering how Susan always got her way, I decided to borrow her tactics. I burst into tears and ran straight to Thomas."Dad! Rick said Mom was just some woman you fooled around with, and that you didn't even want me. He's so mean! He hates me!"Yeah, I definitely pulled a move straight out of the Drama Queen playbook, but it worked.Thomas' usual warm smile disappeared, his face turning dark in an instant. He stormed over and slapped Rick hard across the face."Don't push me to kick you out on this pleasant day!" he roared.Susan muttered something under her breath. She was displeased as she stood behind Rick."She's just putting on an act—" she retorted, but her words were cut off."Did I say you could speak?"Thomas barked, silencing her. "If you don't want to be here, then leave! And if I catch either of you picking on Amber
A Father Claimed Chapter 12 Why Does Susan Need a Ton Of Cash?
I kept a close watch on both of their social media updates. Susan continued posting about their sweet, romantic life, as if nothing was amiss.It seemed Rick had managed to scrape together a massive sum of money in just three days for her. But why did she need such a huge amount of cash?Curiosity got the better of me, so I discreetly arranged for someone to follow Susan.The evidence was beyond comprehension. I was distraught to learn that in a mere span of two weeks, Susan had frequented the casinos on fourteen occasions.The money Rick had gathered for her, supposedly for an investment, had gone straight into gambling!I didn’t even want to imagine how high the stakes were. Things were definitely about to get interesting.Just as I was wondering how Rick had come up with such a large amount so quickly, word spread that he had defaulted on a loan.Thomas didn't even lift an eyebrow at first."How much did he borrow?" he asked.The debt collector held up a single finger."A

"What makes you think you'll win any money at a casino?"As soon as Thomas spoke, Susan's expression froze for a brief moment.Still, she quickly tried to recover and act casual. "Oh, Dad, what are you talking about? Investments are always a gamble. You win some, you lose some. "Are you comparing the investment Rick and I made to gambling? It's just like speculating in stocks. There are gains and losses!"Rick sighed heavily, covering his face with his hands and shaking his head."Rick, why are you sighing? Don't tell me even you don't believe I can make money?"Rick looked at her, disappointment clear in his eyes. "You've racked up fifty billion in debt. How do you expect me to believe in you now?"As soon as the words left his mouth, Susan's confident facade began to crack. She tried to stand, wanting to leave, but the bodyguards held her back."What's going on here?" she demanded, still attempting to feign ignorance.I calmly pulled out a stack of documents from my side an
A Father Claimed Chapter 14 The End
Rick's world shattered in an instant. Everything he had done for Susan was built on lies. "You told me you didn't have parents!" His voice cracked, heavy with disbelief.Another man stepped forward, pointing at Rick. "What the hell are you talking about? If she doesn't have parents, then who am I? I'm Susan's father! Watch your mouth, kid!"Susan looked as pale as a ghost as she stared at her towering husband. Fear flickered in her eyes."When we get home, I'll break your legs!" the man snarled. "That'll teach you to sneak around with other men!"His threat sent a shiver down Susan's spine, and her body shook uncontrollably. He grabbed her by the arm, pulling her up with a rough jerk. This time, the bodyguards didn't intervene.In a desperate panic, Susan clung to one of them. "Please, help me! Don't let them take me! You can't let this happen!"She turned to Rick, her voice full of desperation as she pleaded, "Rick! Please, help me!"Alas, Rick's heart was numb. He had seen
A Father Claimed Chapter 1 My Best Friend's Request
My mother passed away.It was a quiet death, the kind that came gently after a long illness.In her final moments, she clutched my hand, her voice thick with emotion as she repeated, "When I'm gone, you have to find your father."I grew up with just her, raised solely by my mom. My father had always been a mystery, wrapped in silence.I didn't even know his name, let alone where he came from.But that changed in the end. Just before my mother left this world, she whispered his name and handed me an address. He wasn't just anyone—he was the chairman of a company.And I was nothing more than his illegitimate daughter.She told me how she had outlasted the man's lawful wife, and, with a heavy heart, gave me a keepsake to reunite with him. Then, she slipped away, her face peaceful, leaving this world without regret.Afterward, I confided in my best friend, Susan Wales."Your father's the chairman? The Wrenn Group is a big deal!" The moment she heard, tears streamed down her
A Father Claimed 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
A Father Claimed 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
