1148: In Search of the Heir（5）

In Search of the Heir（5）

"Recently, my mother got seriously ill and was admitted to the hospital. Before she died, she told me what had really happened with my child. I found out that the baby didn't die, but that my mother had given her to someone else right after she was born. Over the years, my mother felt bad whenever she saw me all by myself. I didn't have an heir, even though I had such a large corporation. Her guilt over giving away the child increased each and every day, until she finally decided to tell me." As Lina spoke, she became emotional. "Cheng Chen, you can't fathom my feelings when she told me. The feeling of losing something and then regaining it. However, after that, I was at a loss. My daughter is alive, but I don't even know what she looks like. I've never seen her since she was born. Over the last twenty years, I thought that she was dead. In the end, after all this time, my mother was telling me that my daughter is perfectly alive!"1

Lina stabilized her emotions and continued. "Because my mother was dying, I couldn't leave just her. I had to send my assistant, Eric, out to help me search for the family that my mother had given the child to. In the end, he found the family, but they said that they hadn't wanted the child because she was a girl. They sold her off. They didn't know who they sold her to, and they could no longer find them. When I heard the news, I became so angry and despairing. My daughter should have been loved and spoiled more than any other. Instead, those people sold her off like dirt!"

"Therefore, after taking care of my mother's funeral, I decided to personally return to this country. I need to find my daughter. I want her to be my heir. I want to give her everything that I have!"

When Lina was done talking, Cheng Chen returned to his seat. His heart was in turmoil. This news had come out of nowhere.

"So our daughter isn't dead? She's still alive?" Cheng Chen asked robotically.

"That's right, she's still alive. And I believe that wherever she is, my daughter isn't lacking anything. She is living confidently and unrestrained in some country." Lina's words were firm, as if she could see a blurry figure enjoying her incredibly dazzling life. Suddenly, Lina laughed. "Perhaps we are already grandparents."

When he heard Lina's words, Cheng Chen was reminded of someone. His eyes went blank for a moment, then he shook his head with a smile. "It can't be that much of a coincidence."

"What did you say?" Lina asked.

"Oh, nothing. I was just reminded of someone," Cheng Chen said. The thought even seemed funny to him. How could it be her? How could it be Ling Tianya? How could there be such a coincidence in the world?

Lina didn't linger on Cheng Chen's words. "I'm not telling you about our daughter because I want to bind you, but because I think that your connections are better than mine in this country. I hope that you can help me find her. Don't worry; even if we find her, she is still my daughter and unrelated to you. I won't use her to threaten or manipulate you. We are the same kind of people. We don't have feelings, only cravings. Also, I no longer have the craving for you that I had in the past. Right now, I only want my daughter."

Currently, Eric was sitting in Zhiya Entertainment's first floor resting area. He stared fiercely at the president's personal elevator. Even now, the number on the elevator wasn't changing. It was still on the floor where Cheng Chen's office was located.

Eric gripped the armrests of his chair and muttered, "F*ck, talking for so long! She's f*cking stirring up trouble, isn't she!"
