Chapter 99

William’s business and industries span across the globe, but there’s only one true headquarters the building in front of us.

When I was young, I used to come here often.

There was a time when many staff in this building speculated that I was William’s illegitimate daughter. Otherwise, how could the high and mighty boss be so indulgent to a little girl?

It can be said that this place was once a part of my happy childhood.

Before her, there were at least seven receptionists, and I didn’t know any of them. However, none of them had ever stopped me.

The reason was simple–William had publicly declared in front of all the staff: I could come and go freely in the building, and I could find him anytime, anywhere, and no one was allowed to stop me,

Therefore, the first thing each receptionist did before taking office was to familiarize themselves with my photo.

But now, the woman in front of me stopped me, and from her words, I could be sure she didn’t recognize me at all.
