Jeffrey left around the same time as the police officers. But instead of driving away immediately, he sat in his car, staring up at the high–rise where Rebecca was.

About ten minutes later, Gregory arrived. “Boss.”

“Got the results?” Jeffrey asked.

“Yeah.” Gregory handed over a file. “Multiple labs confirmed it. Richard isn’t Ms. Jensen’s father. No blood relation at all.”

Jeffrey flipped through the documents.

Just as Gregory had said, Rebecca wasn’t Richard’s kid.

“Do you want me to look into Ms. Jensen’s real father?” Gregory asked.

“No need,” Jeffrey replied coolly. “Now that we’ve cleared up Amelia’s situation, we’ll get a lead on Rebecca’s father anyway.” He added, “When did Amelia and Richard get married?”

“They got their marriage license in April, which was less than five months before Ms. Jensen’s birthday,” Gregory replied.

So, Richard probably knew Amelia was already pregnant back then.

“I looked into it in detail. On the surface, it seems like Richard and Amelia had a shotgun wedding. But when I questioned the Jensen family about when their relationship actually started, every single person gave a different answer,” Gregory said, sounding a little intrigued.

Jeffrey ran his fingers over the test results, deep in thought.

“Also, just as you guessed, Amelia was indeed the founder of the Jensen Group. But she was only involved for three months before handing everything over to Richard,” Gregory went on.

“Did she have any shares?” Jeffrey asked, not having paid much attention to the Jensen Group before.

“No,” Gregory replied.

Jeffrey’s expression darkened.

So, it seemed that what they heard Rebecca say to Richard was likely true.

Amelia probably struck some kind of deal with Richard. Amelia helped Richard launch the company quickly, and he promised her something in return. Whether raising Rebecca was part of that deal was still anyone’s

guess.

“Doesn’t Amelia have a friend?” Jeffrey asked, trying to recall something from the past.

Gregory, who knew all the details, replied, “Yeah, her name is May. She went abroad soon after Amelia’s
