Since she had revealed the truth, Jennifer no longer hesitated and began to talk about the past 20 years. She revealed that she did give birth to a daughter, but sadly, the baby died shortly after birth.At that time, a woman in the hospital had just given birth to a girl and wanted to abandon her because she wanted a son. So, Jennifer decided to adopt the baby.It all sounded straightforward, but it seemed coincidental. Henry asked, "What was that woman's name? Why didn't she want her daughter?""I don't know. I didn't know her," Jennifer said."Which hospital was it?" Henry asked, skeptical of Jennifer's story."Paxton Hospital," Jennifer answered right away. It was a well-known private hospital back then, but it no longer existed. Even if he had tried to investigate, finding anything from over 20 years ago would have been impossible."You better be telling the truth. I'm going to have someone look into that hospital and pull up all the records," Henry said coldly."I swear! I
Henry frowned and said, "Alright, I know exactly who you are, so no need to put on a show. To solve your problem, you must hand the Miller Group over.""What? Hand the Miller Group over?" Jennifer's face changed. The Miller Group was the goose that laid the golden eggs. She could not just let it go so easily."What's wrong? You don't want to? The Miller Group is in such bad shape that no one wants it, even if you offered it for free," Henry replied coldly."But you can save it, right?" Jennifer asked."Do you know how much money I 'll need to invest to save the Miller Group?" Henry asked. Without support from people like Jeffery, saving the Miller Group would require at least 150 million dollars."That amount isn't much for you," Jennifer argued.Even though the Miller Group was a mess and almost bankrupt, Jennifer thought she could wait for Henry to save it and continue being the CEO afterward.The money was not much for Henry, and Jennifer thought he was responsible for doing
Henry shook his head and walked outside, feeling slightly unsettled. He never expected Lydia's background to be that. He wondered if John knew about her history; maybe he did not. Otherwise, why would John treat her with such care?Jennifer was right about one thing—Lydia did not need to know. So, Henry did not plan to tell her. He needed to find out the facts and could not rely on what Jennifer said. If it turned out that Lydia had indeed been abandoned by her birth mother, it probably would not be appropriate to tell her.He decided to wait and see.As Henry walked out, Jennifer glared at his back, angered that Henry had mistreated her even though he was rich.However, given Henry's status, she could elevate her status if only she could get close to him. No matter what, she needed to find a way to leverage her relationship with Lydia to reclaim the Miller Group."Mr. Truman!"As Henry came out, James greeted him politely. He had stayed behind to accompany him."Sergeant James!
"I'm sorry for putting you through that," Lydia murmured, incredibly touched by Henry's support. She did not know how to repay him."As long as you're happy, nothing else matters." Henry smiled."But even though I promised to help your mom, I did ask for something in return.""What did you ask for?" Lydia asked."I told her to transfer all her Miller Group shares to you.""Wait; is she willing to do that?" Lydia was taken aback. She knew the Miller Group was in serious trouble.She doubted if Jennifer would give it up easily."Yes, she's willing. Come over if you have time in the next couple of days," Henry replied."I have things to do today, but I'll come first thing tomorrow," Lydia said promptly. She had not shown up because she was trying to figure things out, and she also wanted her mom to reflect on what she had done."Sounds good. We'll talk more when you're here.""Thanks, Henry. I love you!" Lydia expressed her feelings in a rare moment. Before Henry could respond,
Henry frowned and nodded."Have you seen Jennifer? She's not doing well at all!" William hurriedly said.Things were tough for him, with Jennifer in trouble and the Miller Group facing serious issues. The family was under fire from all sides, and they desperately needed Henry's help.Henry scoffed inwardly. Still, he thought gathering some information from William might be helpful."Yes, but if you want me to help you, you must answer one question honestly.""What question? I'll tell you anything if you can save her," William replied eagerly."Who is Lydia's biological father? How did she end up with the Millers?" Henry asked.William's expression changed. "What do you mean? Lydia is my daughter!"He was taken aback. He had not known the truth when Lydia was born and only discovered it years later."It seems you don't want to save your wife. Then, let her rot in jail," Henry said, pretending to walk away.He wanted to see if the two would have consistent stories, which would
"I heard you're back! You haven't called me for so long, Henry!" Chansey pouted, showing no restraint in front of her father as she playfully complained.Henry felt helpless. It was not that he had not thought about her; he was just afraid of getting involved in unnecessary affairs."I've been really busy," he said."By the way, what brings you here, Mr. Ford?""Well, I heard that you've returned for the Millers, so I wanted to check if you have any orders for me," Jeffery asked cautiously.He felt proud of himself for thinking ahead and bringing his daughter along. Henry was in such a good mood, so he hoped he would not be blamed for the Millers' troubles. Unfortunately, Chansey could not marry Henry; otherwise, the Fords would soar to new heights.Henry saw through his eagerness and replied calmly, "Don't worry; the Millers brought that onto themselves. It's nobody's fault but their own."Jeffery sighed in relief."However, I'm here to save the Miller Group," Henry said.Jef
"Alright, but make sure you come to me when you're free!" Chansey said."Sure!" Henry replied helplessly.As they left, he quickly got in his car and headed to visit Maison, the former director of the orphanage.Henry brought a few things when he arrived at the neighborhood and knocked on the door. Luckily, Maison was home. She was thrilled to see him, as they had last met for a while. She often thought about him and mentioned how much she missed him.They chatted for a long time until about four in the afternoon, when Henry said he would pick Cheryl up for dinner. Maison smiled and nodded, knowing Cheryl would be pleased. She had no idea how much Cheryl missed Henry.Henry decided to drive himself, using a car provided by his subordinates. He quickly arrived at Skyline Corporation and waited downstairs for Cheryl to finish work.Just then, a luxury sports car was parked nearby, and a stylish young man stood next to it, holding a large bouquet. Henry casually glanced at the guy a
Seeing the disgust on Cheryl's face and hearing her say that, Lily said, "Cheryl, Young Master Hilton is actually a pretty good guy. His family is powerful and well-connected. I hear his family also has high-ranking officials."Then, she noticed Cheryl's eyes light up and was confused."What's going on? Have you changed your mind? Let's go see him!" Lily said.Lily sneered inwardly, thinking that Cheryl was acting innocent and pretending to hate Drake, yet her actions said otherwise. It was no wonder she had gotten promoted so fast at such a young age. There was even talk of her being promoted to the CEO position soon.Lily had not been with the company for long. Since Cheryl kept a low profile, she did not know that Cheryl had significant backing within the company, especially since Henry had once made a special appearance to support her.Drake had been infatuated with Cheryl ever since he first saw her and relentlessly pursued her. However, Cheryl was not interested and even sai
