Karl’s grip on his phone tightened.

His jaw tensed up and he felt that he must have misheard. He kept his emotions under control and asked again, “What did you say?”

“Boss, Tanya Turner is your real daughter. Hillary Jones is not your daughter at all. That sadistic woman even stole your daughter’s child and tortured her for five years…

“I looked into her background along the way. Ms. Turner suffered a lot in Switzerland during those five years. After she lost her child, she suffered a mental breakdown and was almost sent to a mental institution. Later, someone even framed her and broke her leg. When I looked into it, it turned out that it was also Hillary’s doing. Fortunately, she met a genius doctor who fixed her leg for her…

“Also, as you must already know from the court hearing, it was Hillary behind Ms. Turner and Mr. Smith’s breakup back then. She schemed and plotted to sow discord between the two of them and separate them.

“I also found out that everyone knows that Tanya Turner is Jill’s daughter. She was Jill’s extra baggage when she married into the Joneses back then. The Joneses have always treated Ms. Turner like a servant.

“Also, after the first nine years of compulsory education, ever since she entered junior high, Ms. Turner had been working part-time to earn money for her tuition fees. Her tuition fees when she was attending college in the States also came from her part-time jobs. It seems that Jill has never given her any money for living expenses…”

The more his subordinate spoke, the graver and more solemn Karl’s face became.

To be honest, when Jill told him that Hillary was his daughter, he had been somewhat in an internal struggle.

After all, no one wanted their daughter to be a thief who stole other people’s children!

But for someone like him, who couldn’t ever have any more children, having a descendant was something that didn’t come by easily. He didn’t dare to wish for more.

When he instructed his men to look into Tanya, he actually hadn’t held much hope. He had merely found Jill’s behavior a little fishy.

Even though he was the leader of a group of assassins, Karl gave people the impression that he was a very simple and naive man, as if he was very gullible. It was just like how he had seemed like a foolish small-time gangster in the States many years ago…

But if he really were that stupid, how would he possibly have become the leader of the Assassin Organization?

The instant the report was out, Karl was thankful that his daughter was not a woman who did all sorts of wicked and malicious deeds, an acute sense of guilt also surged up in him!
