Chapter 235 The Heiress Appears
Ronaldo remained suspicious.
Something didn’t sit right with him.

In the end, it was Tristan who made the final call. “Christian’s point stands. Let our sister rest today. Tomorrow, we’ll host a proper welcoming banquet at the Royal Hotel. Invite industry leaders and members of the press. We’ll make her identity as the Sue family’s Ms. Cassandra official.”
“Yes, Tristan,” Ronaldo responded promptly and went to handle the invitations.
Christian barely picked at his food before rising to excuse himself. “Tristan, I think I’ll head out too-”
“Stop.”
Tristan had no intention of letting him go that easily.
Christian froze mid–step. “Uh, Tristan… I don’t think I’m needed anymore, right?”
“The key.”
At that, Christian immediately fished out the key and handed it over. “Right here. I didn’t touch anything
else, I swear.”
“Who told you to have our sister release Halbert?”
That one sentence made sweat bead on Christian’s forehead.
“Go check on her injuries. After that, reflect about what you did.”
“…Yes, sir.”
Christian slunk off in defeat.
At the Foster residence…
The study was dimly lit. A secretary entered the room and handed a printed invitation to Henry.
“This was emailed from overseas and just printed out,” the secretary said.
Henry glanced at him, eyes cold as ice.
“You used the wrong title.”
“My apologies–Mr. Henry.”
The secretary bowed his head immédiately, not daring to slip again.
“Book me on the earliest flight out tomorrow morning. I’m heading overseas,” Henry said flatly.
“Yes, Mr. Henry.”
Once the secretary left, Henry picked up the invitation. Under the light, his eyes gleamed with a chilling gleam.

News reports were already buzzing with headlines: “The powerful Sue family has finally located their long-
lost heiress.”
Colton had just woken up. Hearing the blaring news in the living room, he dragged himself out of bed and shuffled toward the sound.
“Lewis, could you not blast the TV this loud first thing in the morning?”
He was currently staying at Lewis’s place.
Lewis glanced at the screen, then at Colton. “You should come take a look at this.”
Colton frowned, thinking for a moment that maybe his own family had made the news. He walked over curiously, but the moment his eyes hit the screen, he froze in shock.
The broadcast was reporting on the Sue family’s heiress announcement.
“Oh, that’s all? My dad got some kind of invitation from overseas last night and left at the crack of dawn. I thought something big had happened–but turns out it’s just them finding their lost daughter.”
Lewis nodded. “Same with my dad.”
Which explained why Colton had ended up crashing at Lewis’s house.
“Gotta say, that girl hit the jackpot,” Colton commented as he walked off to brush his teeth. “The Sue family searched all over, didn’t they think Naomi was the daughter? Guess not. Someone out there’s about to go from nobody to heiress overnight.”
Lewis fell silent.
“Lewis? What, cat got your tongue?”
“Eliza took the day off yesterday. Didn’t show up to school either.”
“So? She took a day off. Big deal.”
But halfway through his brushing, Colton paused–realizing what Lewis might be implying. “Wait. You’re not saying…”
“I suspect Eliza might be the Sue family’s daughter.”
Colton stared at him, stunned. “Eliza? The Sue family heiress? Are you serious?”
She didn’t exactly give off that kind of vibe.
Lewis remained calm. “It’s just a suspicion. But think about it–Eliza disappeared yesterday, and so did Ronaldo and Christian. Don’t you think that’s a bit too coincidental?”
Colton furrowed his brows. That… actually made some sense.
“Alright, I’m going to see for myself,” Lewis said suddenly.
