Chapter 6 The lost daughter
Six years later…
The Moonstone City’s most prestigious events center was buzzing with activity.
This was because the owners of the biggest jewelry company, Davis & Co, had returned to the country to introduce their long–lost daughter to the world.
Jack Davis, a renowned jewelry designer, was a powerful man who had built his family’s jewelry business and created wealth for himself.
He had always led the fashion trends in the jewelry world. People were always raving about the jewelry he designed.
However, he went abroad with his wife some years ago. People regretted that they lost the opportunity to form connections with the Davis family.
Finally, the Davis family announced their return.
Many of the distinguished men and women of Moonstone City wanted to rub shoulders with Jack Davis, the CEO of Davis & Co. They showed up in luxury cars and brought expensive gifts to impress the family.
A reporter from KB Entertainment stood in front of the camera as she live–streamed the event.
“Ladies and gentlemen, we are gathered at the biggest event of the year where the CEO of Davis & Co. will introduce his one and only daughter to the world. Everyone is eager to meet Miss Davis, including Moonstone City’s most eligible bachelor, Ryan Kingsley, who is accompanied by his fiancee, Ivy Williams. It seems the esteemed CEO is also interested in meeting the lost daughter of the Davis family….”
As the reporter continued, a tall handsome man in a dark tailor–made suit walked through the doors and entered the hall. He scoffed when he heard the reporter’s words.
He wasn’t ‘interested‘ in meeting the lost daughter. His goal was to form a partnership with Jack Davis for his new jewelry company.
The man was none other than, Ryan Kingsley, the CEO of the Kingsley group. He was tall with dark hair and a sharp angular jaw that could cut a diamond. He had a trimmed, neat beard that gave him a sexy, manly look.
“Ryan, over here!” A soft voice called out from one side of the hall.
Ryan glanced over and saw Ivy Williams. He smiled and approached her, asking, “Have you talked to Mr Davis yet?”
Ivy chuckled awkwardly. She had left earlier on to see Mr Davis but she was sent back by his security. Everyone who wanted to see the man had to wait until the event. It didn’t help that her father knew him.
“I just decided to wait for him right here. Don’t worry, Ryan. I’ll help you secure a partnership with Mr Davis. He’s my father’s friend, so he will have to give me some face,” Ivy said.
Ryan shoved his hands into his pockets and nodded. He had no choice but to rely on Ivy since his efforts to contact Jack Davis were futile. It seemed the man was purposefully ignoring him for some reason.
It didn’t take long for the MC to announce that Mr Davis had arrived and everyone’s attention shifted to the doors.
A minute later, a man in his fifties walked through the doors with an elegant woman by his side. It was his wife, Freya Davis, who was also a famous jewelry designer.
“There he is, come, let’s go and say hi. I’ll introduce him to you,” Ivy said confidently.
Ryan nodded and pushed Ivy’s wheelchair. They approached Jack Davis and his wife when they stopped to greet a few guests.
Ivy smiled and called out, “Uncle Davis!”
