“Four? That’s impossible, Uncle! Everyone knows there are only three prestigious families–the Ethans, the Tangs, and the Lins,” Ryan said, his voice filled with disbelief.

Morgan leaned back, his expression shadowed with secrets. “There’s another one–the Longs,” he revealed, his tone carrying an air of finality.

“The Longs?” Ryan repeated, confusion evident in his eyes.

“Dad, who are the Longs?” Rose chimed in, her curiosity piqued. “If they’re one of the prestigious families, why doesn’t anyone know about them? And what’s the connection between Lily and these families?”

Morgan sighed deeply, hesitating for a moment before answering. “I can’t tell you everything. The less you know, the better it is for you. What you must understand is this–Lily is the daughter of one of these prestigious families.”

“Which one is it?” Rose asked, her voice trembling. “The Ethans? The Lins? The Tangs? Or… is it the Longs?”

“That’s irrelevant,” Morgan said dismissively. “I took her in for a reason, and you’ve ruined everything today. She was supposed to be our golden opportunity, but now…”

“I’m sorry, Dad,” Rose murmured, guilt weighing down her voice. “But I still don’t understand. If she belongs to such a powerful family, why did they abandon her at an orphanage?”

Morgan shrugged, his expression unreadable. “I don’t have the answer to that. Years ago, I happened to see a man leaving a baby at the orphanage’s doorstep. He mentioned something about her identity, though I couldn’t catch much. After he left, I brought her home.”

“He was wearing a mask, so I couldn’t identify him. But one thing is certain–he wasn’t her father. That much I know.”
