“What?”

The words struck Jessamyn like a thunderbolt, shattering her rationality and understanding into fragments.

Zendaya…

That girl was not Charles’ illegitimate daughter but the precious daughter of the Jenson and Harris families!

In an instant, she realized she had offended the three largest and most powerful families in Chanaea.

Jessamyn was so shocked that she couldn’t collect herself for a while. She couldn’t fathom the terrifying possibility that Cloudington Group might crumble because of her actions.

“Why did I never come across any information about her online, especially since she’s Mr. Jenson and Ms. Harris’ daughter? Besides, why did she call Charles ‘Daddy’?” Jessamyn asked, seeking some explanation.

Ignatius sighed deeply and sat heavily on the edge of her bed. “That’s because Mr. Jenson and his wife are concerned about their child’s safety. Hence, they’ve never publicly shared her pictures or personal information online. You’ve always been fixated on those socialite events, and I’ve told you several times to pay attention to the business gatherings as well, but you’ve never bothered. Is it any wonder you never saw her? As for why she calls Charles ‘Daddy,’ I can’t say for sure…”

“Um…”

Jessamyn was at a loss for words. She obediently crouched beside her father’s feet, her hands resting on his knees as tears streamed down her face.

She asked, “Dad, what am I going to do? I insulted Zendaya and offended Mr. Jenson, Ms. Harris, and Charles. Today, Jenson Group merely canceled one project’s collaboration, and yet we’ve already suffered such significant financial losses. If they refuse to let me go, what should we do?”

Ignatius grumbled, “I’ve told you time and time again that the relationships within these prestigious families are complex. I’ve advised you to rein in your audacious nature and not think that you can easily offend others just because they seem vulnerable. You have no idea what consequences you might face. Yet, have you ever bothered to heed my words? You’ve created this mess, so you have to figure out a way to clean it up yourself!”

“Dad, please don’t abandon me. I know I’ve made a mistake… I’ll listen to you from now on.” Jessamyn began crying sadly.

Eva also hugged their daughter, tears streaming down her face. “Hubby, we’re getting older, and she’s our only precious daughter. If you don’t find a solution to help her, what will become of our Cloud family?”

Although the Cloud family was well-off and held a prominent position on the wealthy elite list in the country, if the three families united against them, it would be a disaster for them. Crushing Cloudington Group would be as simple as squashing an ant.
