bert placed it on the chair behind him.
Once he saw Yuvan returning with the two people, Herbert stared at Genevieve for a while.
Even though the look in his eyes was still an intense one, he smiled. “Thank you for making the little tig

Genevieve returned the smile. “I’m glad you like it.”
Herbert then arranged for Genevieve and Cooper to sit at his table. Genevieve sat by his left, and Sylvi
e sat by his right.
As Sylvie’s head was hung, no one could see the emotions in her eyes.
The few housekeepers then surged into the front yard as they served delectable dishes onto the

Everyone there, other than Genevieve and Cooper, were Zeiglers, so they chatted merrily away with on
e another a while after the meal started. Midway, they even raised their glasses and wished Herbert a h
appy birthday.
Herbert kept chuckling, and he even drank two glasses of wine. It was obvious that he was elated.
“Eat more, Sylvie.” Herbert dotingly said as he put some food on Sylvie’s plate. Then, as his heart. ach

Herbert had long gotten the second test results.
He heaved a heavy sigh of relief when he saw them, as he could finally be sure that Sylvie was his biol
ogical granddaughter.
As the driver has said, Sylvie must have inherited her father’s ruthless character.
“Okay.” Sylvie nodded obediently. “Granddad, you’re not in great health, so don’t drink anymore.”
Herbert chuckled. “Okay, okay. I won’t drink anymore.”
Cooper curled his lips when
he saw the elderly man’s sweet interaction with the young woman. He then slowly started, “General Zei

“Is that so?” Herbert sighed.
Ever since his second daughter went missing, he had been searching for her like a madman, but years
came and went by without any news. Herbert had even contacted the media multiple times. to announc

“I found out about this from a friend.” Cooper pushed his glasses higher. “I heard that Ms. Juliana appe

“Of course.” Cooper glanced at Sylvie, who looked tense, and handed Herbert a phone where the detail

Sylvie nearly dropped the fork she had in her hand.
Didn’t Jack say that he’ll erase my mother’s information and photo for me when I made the deal with hi
