To her complete surprise, as soon as her blood sample entered the database, it immediately matched her biological father.
He had been looking for her for years, and just two days ago, they had officially reunited.
What shocked and thrilled her even more was the identity of her father: Craig Schmidt, the head of Schmidt Properties, a massive real estate empire second only to the Flynn Group in Bay City.
Craig only had two sons and no daughters, so he was overjoyed during their reunion.
The only slight disappointment for Sylvia was that she couldn't meet her biological mother, who had been paralyzed and bedridden for years, never leaving the house.
A billionaire father had just dropped out of the sky, and she was his only daughter. Sylvia felt like she had hit the ultimate jackpot. In an instant, all her confidence came rushing back.
On the day they reunited, Craig promised to announce the good news to the rest of the family and host a grand family reunion gala for her in the near future.
Soon, the whole world would know that Sylvia had transformed into the esteemed heiress of Schmidt Properties.
Just thinking about it made her eyes gleam with excitement. She hadn't been able to hold it in and had already shared the incredible news with Melanie.
Melanie had already been calculating who would be a good match for Yardley once he finally divorced Scarlett.
Now, if Sylvia reclaimed her identity and returned to the Schmidt family, her status as his cousin would be completely erased.
That would make them the perfect match.
Sure, Sylvia had an illegitimate child, but what did that matter? They could just quietly send the kid to an orphanage later; it wouldn't stand in the way of their happiness.
Seeing her embarrassment, Melanie quickly stepped in. "Mom, stop asking! Isn't it obvious? Let me tell you, Sylvia has something even better to share! A couple of days ago, she reunited with her biological dad!"
"And guess who it is? Craig Schmidt, the CEO of Schmidt Properties! Isn't that wild? Now our Sylvia isn't just the Stetsons' daughter, she's the sole heiress to the Schmidt family! Craig said he's going to throw a massive family reunion gala to formally welcome her back!"
Melanie boasted proudly, winking at Sylvia with a triumphant gleam in her eyes.
But upon hearing this, Corinne's face drained of all color. Her legs began to tremble uncontrollably, cold sweat soaking her back. Her vision darkened, and suddenly, she collapsed!
"Mom! Mom! Are you okay?!" Melanie screamed, rushing to catch her.
"She's sweating so much. Could it be heatstroke?" Sylvia hurriedly helped prop her up.
