The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 175

Mr. Zack and Hilaria left the conference room.

"As for Adeline Tesdal's background, Mr. Baldrick only knows a rough idea. Her biological parents were involved in special confidential work when they were young. They gave their child to a distant relative for care after she was born. But the relatives were negligent, and the child was kidnapped. It was more than a decade later when they finished their mission and found out the child was gone," Mr. Zack said in a deep voice.

Hilaria's face darkened.

"By coincidence, this couple had changed their identities many times. It took them many years to find their daughter at the time of Adeline's accident and took her away."

"No wonder we couldn't find them no matter how hard we looked," Hilaria said, frowning.

"Actually, it's not that hard to find them. It's just that this couple changed their identities one last time, and used some tricks to destroy both of their records," Mr. Zack replied.

"So what Baldrick said about Adeline's death... is that not true?" Hilaria asked, holding on to a glimmer of hope.

Mr. Zack shook his head.

"Before Adeline passed away, she still contacted Mr. Baldrick, briefly told him about her situation, and mentioned her child."

"Mr. Baldrick thought Adeline wanted him to take care of her child. However, Adeline just said she missed her father... and that her daughter was innocent and lovely, and she wanted her to grow up carefree, never approaching filthy riches."

Hilaria couldn't help but start crying again. "I hurt Adeline's heart!"

"Ma'am, you were indeed wrong at first, but... you're not the one who started it all!" Mr. Zack gritted his teeth, "Anyway, I hope you can fulfill Mr. Baldrick's last wish and find his granddaughter."

"That child!" Hilaria suddenly grabbed Mr. Zack's wrist and asked, "How old is she now?"

Mr. Zack looked at Hilaria and said, "Ma'am, why do you think Mr. Baldrick wanted to entrust the child to you in the end?"

Hilaria trembled, her face pale. "Is she Latham's child? My granddaughter?"

Mr. Zack gently removed Hilaria's hand and said, "I still have some matters to deal with. You can call me if you need anything."

Finally, Mr. Zack handed Baldrick's urn to Hilaria, then left with his lawyer team, ignoring Yvonne's hysterics.

Hilaria was still a bit stunned.
