One of the bodyguards hesitated and spoke up. “Sir, you arranged for two reporters to stir things up. What if Mr. Tristan really gets angry? And won’t this damage the Sue family’s reputation?”

“Letting Eliza into the Sue family is what damages our reputation,” Halbert snapped. “From now on, people will mock us–say we’ve tainted the family name.”

In his mind, he was doing this for the good of the Sue family.

Even if Tristan blamed him afterward, he’d still stand by it.

Back on the main floor, facing the probing questions about illegitimacy, Tristan reached out and took Eliza’s

hand.

“She’s not an illegitimate daughter. She is the rightful daughter of the Sue family.”

Eliza’s expression shifted slightly when she heard those words.

Around them, the reporters glanced at each other in confusion, unsure what Tristan meant by that.

Then Tristan added calmly, “Eliza is the only direct–blooded daughter of the Sue family.”

The air turned electric.

The reporters immediately picked up on the implications and pressed forward with sharper questions.

“What do you mean by ‘only‘? Are you suggesting that even you and your three brothers aren’t the biological children of the late Mr. Goldbert Sue?”

There had long been rumors overseas–whispers that Mr. Goldbert and his wife were estranged before his death.

If that were true, how had four sons suddenly appeared?

Under the spotlight, Tristan answered with zero hesitation.

“Yes.”

Gasps swept through the banquet hall.

Flashes exploded in rapid succession, trying to capture every single guest’s shocked expression.

Eliza turned to Tristan, stunned. She hadn’t expected this.

This was clearly a family secret. Why reveal it so publicly?

“Eliza is our father’s only child,” Tristan continued. “She is the one we’ve always been waiting for. From this moment forward, everything that belongs to the Sue family—whether it’s inheritance or the company- belongs to her. Eliza is the Sue family’s primary heir.”

His words sent shockwaves across the room.

Everyone knew how much the Sue family was worth.

They weren’t just wealthy–they were the richest family overseas.

And Tristan had just declared that all of it would go to a girl they had only just found?

“Are you serious? The Sue family controls thousands of companies, employs hundreds of thousands of people, and owns assets worth hundreds of billions. Are you saying all of that will go to Miss Eliza?”

“Have you done a DNA test? Can the results be made public?”

“Has the Sue family’s board approved this succession?”

“Please clarify!”

The questions came faster and louder, everyone desperate to hear Tristan’s explanation.

After all, this wasn’t some small inheritance–it was an empire.

To hand it over to someone who had just returned?

Tristan didn’t waver in the slightest. He spoke with gravity and calm.

“I speak for the Sue family. If I say everything belongs to Eliza, then it does. That will not change.”

The room fell into stunned silence.

With that single sentence-

Whoever married Eliza… would effectively marry into the world’s wealthiest family.

“I also ask the press to be cautious in their reporting,” Tristan added. “I don’t want to see the word ‘illegitimate‘ printed beside my sister’s name tomorrow.”

That one statement was enough to silence every journalist.

Tristan’s authority in the industry was unmatched.

No one dared disobey him.

Not far away, Halbert stood frozen in place.

“Sir? Sir?”

His bodyguard shook him gently, pulling him out of his trance.

What had Tristan just said?

That Eliza was the only true heir?

Then what about him?

Was Tristan really willing to tell a lie like that just to defend Eliza?

And standing not far away, Tracy’s face had gone pale when Tristan announced the entire Sue family fortune would go to Eliza.
