Chapter 551 Biological Daughter

As Rose spoke up, Elijah also confirmed, "Yes, we've met before."

"You've met before?" Clover was puzzled. Elijah had just arrived in Regalia yesterday, so he couldn't understand how they could have known each other.

His curiosity deepened, but Elijah had no interest in explaining. His gaze was fixed on Rose, his eyes burning with intensity as if trying to take in every detail of her once more. Even Rose couldn't help but notice the unusual look in his eyes. "Rosie... This is good. I should have recognized you earlier. But luckily, it's not too late..." Elijah said, his voice tinged with emotion.

This side of Elijah was something Clover had never seen before. In his mind, Elijah had always been calm and reserved, never one to show his emotions so openly.

Upon seeing Elijah reaching for Rose's hand, Clover instinctively stepped between them, blocking his uncle.

"Uncle Elijah, Rosie is my sister!" he declared protectively. He couldn't help but think that Elijah was being a little too emotional.

Elijah frowned, displeased, but Clover paid him no mind. Pulling Rose closer, he addressed the crowd.

"Although Rose and I recently became siblings, that ceremony was too simple.

"Today, with the presence of a Xanth family elder and all of you as witnesses, I formally declare Rose as the eldest daughter of the Xanth family. I hope you'll all support her from now on." Clover's humble smile accompanied his announcement.

With those words, Rose's position as the heirres of Lerain Group was solidified. The room was filled with astonishment as people looked at Rose with newfound awe.

"Of course, she'll have our full support!"

"We'll rely on you in the future, Ms. Shaffer!"

"Ms. Shaffer, I attended the charity auction hosted by the Young family. This is our second meeting, and it's an honor to be here today."

"Ms. Shaffer..."
