Chapter 486

Mr. Briggs' face suddenly darkened.

Beside him, Ricardo couldn't help but slightly curve his lips into a smirk. On the second floor, Sophie raised her eyebrows upon witnessing this scene.

It seemed tonight was indeed lively.

"Dad, I've been looking for you for so long and finally found you! I am Rowena..... I am your daughter!"

Tears streamed down Rowena's face as if she were a delicate flower under heavy rain, causing the media and reporters around to start snapping photos eagerly.

Nichole fearlessly grabbed Mr. Briggs' wrist and pushed Rowena aside as she angrily exclaimed, "This is my dad! What are you talking about? Who let you in here? Security!"

Security moved forward, but Ricardo stopped them.

He slowly approached, crouched down, and helped Rowena to her feet, saying, "Let's not jump to conclusions when things are still unclear. Since everyone is here tonight, why not let this lady finish what she has to say?"

Rowena wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, looking towards Mr. Briggs. "Dad, I am your daughter, I am Rowena..."

"Enough!" Nichole interrupted coldly. "Your claim doesn't make it true. Ricardo personally found me and brought me to my dad. We have already undergone a paternity test. I suspect you are just here to cause trouble!"

was pleased with the reaction and, looking at Rowena, whose face had turned pale, she continued relentlessly, "You were imprisoned for prostitution, and when the other inmates bullied you, I spoke up for you out of kindness.
