No one had ever dared to defy Xavier Bloodsworth, not even the devil himself. So, who did this girl think she was?

The entire room fell silent. People held their breath as they watched the scene unfolding between the infamous Xavier and the girl who had just stood up to him. His little princess.

They waited for a reaction, anger, fury, something. But instead, Xavier smiled.

He looked... proud. Genuinely pleased.

Penny was his daughter anyway. Only she has the right to mess with him.

For the first time in his life, he was seeing his daughter in person. The same girl he had only seen in videos and photos was now standing before him, real and alive. This was the first time he could touch her, speak to her. His heart swelled with pride.

"I’ve always wanted to slap you," Penny said coldly, her voice trembling with rage.

Even if her mother is the most despicable person in the world, she still feels bad for her. Maybelline was ruined as a child. That was the highest offense. No amount of apology can take back what had happened.

Penny could already imagine how terrified she must have been.

The guests gasped quietly. Some frowned at her attitude, but no one dared speak. If Xavier himself didn’t scold her, who were they to interfere?

"What you did to mother was wrong. She has every right to be mad at you. And don’t think because I spoke against her I’ve forgiven you for abandoning me." Penny said, her eyes filling with tears. But she felt a certain kind of comfort.

It felt like she had finally done something important, held her father accountable for all the pain he caused them.

Because of his actions, her mother had been so cruel. Penny had lived through torment, manipulation, and loneliness. Every day had been a battle for survival in her mother’s twisted world.

"I’m sorry, my princess," Xavier said gently. "I admit I’ve been a terrible man. But I’ve changed. I promise you, I will never be a terrible father. Let me prove myself to you. Hmm?"

Penny stared at him. A tear slipped from her eye, then another. Xavier quickly caught them with his thumb, careful and soft.

She still hadn’t fully processed the truth.

Xavier Bloodsworth was her biological father.

That meant... she was a Bloodsworth now.

It didn’t feel real. Penny was torn inside, confused, heartbroken, and scared. This was too much to take in all at once.

This is the same man she has seen on TV countless times before.

She searched for Osvaldo, her comfort, but Xavier turned her head back to himself.

"You don’t have to cry, Penelope," Xavier said softly pulling her in for another warm hug. "You’re my daughter. And no child of mine should ever shed a tear, not when I’m here to protect and provide for them."

He had waited for this moment his whole life. A chance to be a father, a real one. Penny hugged him back this time.

She has wished for this all her life too. A chance to have a father. One that wasn’t a pervert.

"My dear guests," Xavier announced, turning to the crowd. "Please forgive the drama. Let us now celebrate the return of my precious daughter. Penelope Bloodsworth."

He held Penny’s hand tightly. The guests burst into applause.

He led her toward the grand dining hall. As they walked, Penny suddenly froze.

She felt like she had forgotten something. And just then, she remembered. Osvaldo... and Grandpa Adkins.

"Osvaldo." She called and hurried back to fetch him. No matter what was happening, Osvaldo was her top priority. She’ll never forget him.

Xavier watched his daughter hurry over to the real Adkins family who stood at a corner. Osvaldo’s face lit up when he saw his penguin again and Penny smiled.

"Grandpa, come let’s feast with my new family," Penny said.

"Congratulations on finding your real father kid," Darlington said calmly. The old man has been acting weak and useless all night to save his grandson. He missed events like this. They used to host events like this without any problem until Dewitt decided to be foolish.

"Thank you, grandpa." Penny smiled.

"It’s a shame I came with nothing. Who knew my granddaughter-in-law would be this rascal’s daughter?" Penny laughed. But this action alone stirred up certain conversations.

What is this?

Is the new Bloodsworth daughter with a madman?

What is her relationship with those weird pair?

"I don’t like her with those people who are they?" Mary held her husband’s hands, terrified at the man beside Penny who looked nothing short of dangerous.

Even though he smiled harmlessly, he was terrifying.

"I don’t like them either, but there’s nothing we can do. They’re the lost Adkins family. Though I have no idea why no one has noticed."
