Chapter: 528
The names of the tested individuals were not provided due to privacy reasons, yet the fact that this report had been delivered to Osiris unmistakably implied that one of them was Osiris.
Osiris had an illegitimate daughter!
A surge of anger made Evie's hands shake. She could overlook his infidelity, but an illegitimate offspring who could potentially lay claim to the family's assets was unacceptable.
No way!
She had to confront Osiris about it.
Without delay, Evie reached for her phone, intending to confront Osiris, but paused abruptly.
After a moment of contemplation, she made note of the name of the testing agency and the date it was commissioned, replaced the document in its original location, and hastily made her way to the hospital.
"Osiris is an ungrateful loser. His daughter's in the hospital, and he didn't show up. He's just busy fooling around with women! Mark my words, he will die because of having too much sex." As Evie entered the hospital ward, she vented her frustrations.
Galilea groaned with a headache. "Mom, what brings you here again?"
"I'm here for your sake. Today I discovered that your father has a secret daughter. I fear we might soon be discarded!" Evie declared, her teeth clenched.
“What happened? Explain it to me!" Galilea demanded, her demeanor turning grave.
Despite his inefficiency, her father still held some shares in the company. With the Clifford family's business continually expanding, these shares were increasing in value. Galilea had played a significant part in the success of the business through her collaboration with Blakely Group.
She had rightful claim over all of her father's shares.
Even though they paled in comparison to Blakely Group's assets, she was not about to give them up without a fight.
Evie shared with Galilea the events of the day. "Your father's secretary, Rory, was acting suspiciously, and my hunch proved to be correct. However, the identity of the woman in the report remains unknown to me. If I knew who she was, she'd be done for!"
"The fewer individuals privy to this information, the better. I surmise only Rory has the full picture. He should be aware of her identity."
After reflecting for a while, Galilea extracted her phone and dialed a number.
The call was swiftly answered, and a female voice expressed surprise.
"Ms. Clifford, why are you calling me? What's wrong? Is there an issue with Rory's work?"
The girl happened to be Rory's girlfriend. She had made several attempts to get on Galilea's good side, but Galilea wasn't fond of her.
