?Chapter 1760:


    The following day.


    In Elwood’s study.


    His assistant stood before the heavy oak desk, posture straight, and respectfully handed him a file folder with both hands. “Mr. Wright, here’s the paternity test report for you and Kylee.”


    As soon as the words were spoken, Elwood’s eyes narrowed slightly, his gaze falling on the folder. Without a word, he opened it and turned straight to the final page.


    The moment his eyesnded on the result, his expression shifted drastically. He stared at the report, unmoving, as if time itself hade to a standstill.<fn9a08> ???? ????s? ???????s ?? Find~Novel</fn9a08>


    Seconds stretched into minutes before he finally moved again. At that moment, he found it difficult to put his feelings into words.


    Across the room, the assistant watched him closely, trying to read the result of the report from his unreadable face. Was Kylee truly Elwood’s daughter?


    “You may go,” Elwood said quietly, waving him off.


    “Yes, Mr. Wright.” The assistant nodded and left without another word.


    Left alone, Elwood read the report again, his gaze heavy, clouded with thought.


    Then, he reached for his phone and dialed a number.


    The voice on the other end belonged to Kylee. “Hello.”


    “Ms. Wright, do you have time this afternoon? Can we meet?” Elwood asked, cutting straight to the chase.


    “Is there something urgent you need to talk about?” Kylee asked, her voiceced with caution.


    “Yes,” Elwood replied gravely. “There’s something very important I need to tell you.”


    Kylee paused, sensing the seriousness in his tone. After a deep breath, she responded, “Alright then. Just tell me the time and ce, and I’ll be there.”

    “Okay.” With that, Elwood ended the call.


    Later that afternoon, Kylee arrived at the designated location.


    As she stepped into the private dining room, she found Elwood already seated, waiting in silence. His eyes locked onto her the moment she entered.


    Under his steady gaze, Kylee felt an unfamiliar unease that she couldn’t shake. She nced at him, confused. “Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?” Her hand instinctively rose to her cheek.


    “It’s nothing,” Elwood said softly, though his tone suggested otherwise.


    As his gaze lingered on her face, he couldn’t shake the feeling that she wasn’t someone he recognized.


    “You said you had something to say,” Kylee reminded him, her voice cautious but firm.


    Elwood didn’t waste time with pleasantries. He extended a document toward her— a paternity report. “Here. Take a look.”
