Chapter 362 A Painful Reality
“However,” Beckham took a deep breath, “half a year ago, I discovered during one of Gwenn’s physical
examinations that her DNA does not match mine.”
“Despite having the same blood type, we are not biologically related.”
This revelation caused a commotion among the crowd.
Gwenn’s face turned pale as she knelt on the floor, as if all the blood had drained from her face.
She… was not Beckham’s biological daughter…
How can this be…
She had always taken pride in being the Tanner family’s daughter.
Just ten minutes ago, she had even mocked Cherise mercilessly, believing herself to be born into a
noble family.
But now…
She sat on the ground, paralyzed, and shook her head vigorously. “This can’t be real…”

Kareen crawled over and hugged her tightly. “Gwenn, the DNA test center must have made a mistake.
There has to be an error!”
On stage, Beckham felt a twinge of sympathy as he witnessed her distress.
After all, Gwenn had been his daughter in every sense of the word for nineteen years.
It pained him to see her like this.
But…
Reality was often painful.
He took a deep breath and continued, “I found it difficult to accept this result, so I conducted multiple
tests with a dozen DNA test centers. All the results confirmed that Gwenn is not biologically related to
me.”
“After over a month of investigation, the Tanner family has come to believe that when Charisa left me
all those years ago, she also secretly took our biological daughter with her.”

“We suspect that Charisa substituted my biological daughter for a child adopted from the orphanage.”
Offstage, frenzied discussions erupted.
They had stumbled upon astonishing information about a wealthy and influential family, completely free
of charge!
It’s gossip about the Tanner family!
Attending the birthday banquet was truly worth it!
“We have been searching for Charisa and this child for six months, but we have come up empty-
handed.”
Beckham took a deep breath. “Therefore, on my forty-sixth birthday today, I have invited all of you to
my birthday banquet to earnestly implore for help in finding my biological daughter.”
“If anyone can provide information about my daughter’s whereabouts, the Tanner family will be forever
indebted to them.”
“You can use this favor to request anything within our capabilities. I will not hesitate to give up the
entire Tanner Residence.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe crowd stirred once again.
The Tanner family’s wealth…
No one would turn down such an offer!
From the audience, some bolder individuals called out, “Mr. Beckham, don’t just ask us to search
blindly. Can you provide us with some clues?”
“This world is vast, and without any clues, it would be like searching for a needle in a haystack.”
Beckham smiled nonchalantly. “Of course, there are clues.”
The image on the white screen onstage changed, revealing a jade pendant with an intricate pattern.
“She wore this jade pendant around her neck from the moment she was born. Charisa was in a hurry to
take her away, so she didn’t leave the pendant behind.”
“Although I don’t know if she still wears the pendant, if you can find it, you will uncover
2/3
clues from that time.”
Beckham narrowed his eyes. “I gave this jade pendant to Charisa when I proposed to her. There is only
one like it in the world, with no imitations. Everyone can try to search for it.”
