“Parties? Will there be a lot of people there?”

Ken saw that I did not seem to know anything about it. He sighed in his heart and nodded. “That’s right. Flying Bird seemed to be launching a new product. The CEO is in high spirits, and he’s holding this party to promote the new product.”

My heart gradually turned cold. That mercenary father and sister did not have the talent to develop a new product. They must have used the formula left behind by my mother instead!

Although I was the sole heir appointed by my mother, I did not know anything about the company. Everyone must have thought that I was dead. This would be a good opportunity for me to appear.

“Mr. Ken, my family did not know that I have woken up. I wanted to take advantage of this party to tell them the surprise. Could you take me there?”

I placed my current hopes on this man who suddenly appeared.

Ken tried to be considerate, but he enjoyed the way the girl pleaded with him.

Moreover, he had a feeling that bringing the girl to the party would make the night very interesting.

..

Since my legs was not fully healed, Ken brought me an advanced wheelchair.

My resolve to heal grew stronger as I looked at it, and I stubbornly tried to get into it without asking anyone for help.

However, I have only woken up for one day, and my weak legs could not support my movements at all.

When I thought I would fall in front of him in a sorry state, his broad embrace actually caught me firmly.

Ken looked at my frustrated expression and smiled. His strong arms carried me princess-style onto the wheelchair.

“You’re too light. Eat more in the future, and you would feel more fleshy when you hug me.”

This gentle tone made me feel a little embarrassed. What did it have to do with him whether I hugged him or not?

..

There were all kinds of delicious food and champagne at the party. Everyone complimented the current CEO of Flying Bird, Chris, and celebrated the launch of the new cosmetics.

When Ken, who controlled a large amount of money, appeared, the atmosphere of the party reached a climax.

Everyone wanted to form a relationship with him. If they could get his favor and investment, they would be able to earn a lot of money!

It was not only Chris. Grace, the illegitimate daughter who was dressed to the nines, even widened her eyes when she saw Ken’s handsome face.

I slowly pushed my wheelchair and appeared in everyone’s line of sight.

After recognizing that I was the daughter who was supposed to be lying in the hospital, whose fate was unknown, Chris’ smile froze on his face for a moment. Everyone in the company looked at each other in dismay.

“Miss Elena? This… weren’t you resting in the hospital? The party is so noisy, you should rest well!”

The lie detection system in my mind started beeping. I instinctively knew that the words these people in the company spoke were all lies.

I pushed my wheelchair as if I did not know anything and looked at my biological father, Chris, who abandoned me.

“Father, it’s so lively today. I heard that you are celebrating the launch of a new product.”

Chris pretended to show me a loving expression. “You didn’t have to worry about the company. You only needed to be father’s little princess and live comfortably!”

“Where’s mother? Mother have always been the one who developed new products. Why wasn’t she here?” I asked with an innocent look on my face. Chris’ expression immediately darkened.

The people in the company voiced their doubts and even helped to cover up Chris’ lie.

“Madam have always liked to travel around the world. Hence, she should be traveling around the world this time as well!”

“That’s right. Madam also liked to immerse herself in research. She might be in seclusion in some laboratory right now!”

It was as if he was worried that he would be exposed, so Chris called over an old servant named Tom.

“The young lady is not in good health and is still in a wheelchair. Hurry up and take the young lady to rest!”

The polygraph system continuously sent out alarms. This was enough to prove that everyone present was lying!

It seemed that my mother’s current situation was extremely dangerous! The Flying Bird company that she has single-handedly created was occupied by these people with ill intentions!

I was filled with anger. Ken, who has been watching the show, held onto my shoulder with some regret. His deep eyes were filled with meaning and prevented my emotions from erupting.

“Tonight’s party should be very exciting. It’s a pity that you couldn’t continue to attend. However, there’s still a long way to go. There will always be an opportunity. When the time comes, you must invite me.”

After he left these ambiguous words, the old servant who appeared at the right time took my wheelchair and pushed me away.
