“Firstly, tonight's welcbanquet is to welcmy daughter into the family. And secondly, | wish to declare to
all present that upon my passing, my entire estate shall automatically be transferred to my daughter, Brittany!”
Boom!
The room erupted in a chorus of gasps and murmurs.
Leila, unable to maintain any semblance of decorum, turned a shade deeper with fury. She even thought to
argue her case but was promptly restrained by the butler.
“Madam, this is Mr. Lynette’s decision. It’s best not to interfere,” he advised calmly.
Leila’s eyes flashed with rage. Juliana had stolen Yuri from her all those years ago, and now that little wretch was
about to snatch away all of Yuri’s wealth. How could she ever accept this?
Brittany herself was stunned by Yuri’s bombshell announcement.
The guests whispered and speculated among themselves their attitudes towards Brittany

noticeably shifting.
Yuri and Brittany mingled through the crowd until the dinner party wrapped up, after which Brittany approached
him. “Mr. Lynette, was what you said earlier true?”
“Yes,” Yuri replied, his gaze softening. “You are my only child, my most cherished. Everything | have is yours.”
He spoke with earnest, “I've been unaware of your existence for many years and have failed you in so many
ways. Aside from my estate, there's nothing else | can leave you.”
Brittany felt an unfamiliar tightness in her throat and, on impulse, embraced Yuri, whispering, “Dad.”
She had longed for a father’s love, something she had never received. Robert Dustin had always treated her with
disdain, like she was nothing!
But Yuri, he truly saw her as his daughter!
Hearing that tender ‘Dad,’ Yuri was overjoyed, nodding emphatically. “Good girl.”
It should have been a touching father-daughter moment, but to Leila, it was an eyesore. She struggled to contain
herself and finally approached, forcing a smile, “Yuri.”
Brittany stepped back from Yuri’s embrace, wiping away a tear. “Madam.”
She could feel Leila’s dislike and after tonight's , their fragile relationship was on even thinner ice.

Yuri hadn't expected Leila to cover, and his eyes flickered coldly. “What brings you here?”
“Will Bri be staying the night? I'll have the servants prepare a room,” Leila offered with strained cheerfulness.
“Bri, you should head back now,” Yuri suggested.
After Brittany left, Yuri’s gaze turned back to Leila. “Everything | said tonight was in earnest. My entire estate will
go to her.”

“What about Holden and Saskia?” Leila clenched her fists. “They've been part of the Lynette family for years.
How can you leave them with nothing?”
“Bri was not withsince her childhood. | have nothing else to give,” Yuri declared, feeling Leila was
overstepping her bounds. “Don’t worry, what's yours will not be affected.”
With that, he left Leila standing there, biting her lip in frustration.
Yuri had no interest in her. She had adopted two children, hoping they would help her get evén. But now, with
Brittany's return, her plans were in ruins. How could she simply let this pass?

Yuri’s public declaration to leave his wealth to Brittany sent shock waves once it hit the media. His fortune was
worth billions, and now it was all going to his newly found daughter!
The news was explosive, catching everyone off guard.
Ivy, who had been present at the banquet, couldn't believe the woman she’d bumped into at the restaurant was
the Lynette family heiress. And she certainly hadn't expected the Lynette family to pull such a move, effectively
cutting off Holden's chance to inherit the Lynette legacy.
