Although Neil had never met her and had no clue what she'd look like when she grew up, he just had a gut feeling. This girl was the one.

At this point, Jacob felt there was no reason to keep anything under wraps. He sighed and confessed, "I'm sorry, Mr. Neil, I haven't been honest. It's time to lay it all out. Both of them are my daughters. This is Chloe, my adopted daughter, and this is Lisa, our biological daughter. They were swapped at birth by an enemy, and only three years ago did they switch back their identities." "When you were at the hospital, the baby you saw was actually Chloe.

"You folks know who this guy is, right? The Shaw family from Eldridge City? They're up there with the richest, like the Sartori family. It's clear the Meadows are playing favorites, wanting their blood daughter to get in with the Shaws." "People, huh..."

Jacob was so embarrassed he could feel his face burning. He'd lost all dignity today. Yet, he persisted, "Bringing Chloe was our plan, but when we called her, she said she had a friend's birthday and couldn't come, so Lisa stepped in. Mr. Neil, it wasn't our intention to deceive you."
