“Ha… Claire Donovan, let’s see if you can escape death this time!” Nolan Hayes had left Claire and
the others stranded on the island for two days now. With no food or water, their survival seemed
unlikely. And with the organizers just realizing their absence, it would take them at least a week to
find anyone.
Imagining the search party finding only corpses after days of searching brought a wicked smile to her
face. Her glee was abruptly interrupted as the door swung open. Startled, she looked up to see Joseph
entering the room emotionlessly.
“Dad,” she said, quickly sitting up straight, her casual demeanor fading. “How did you get a key to
my room?”
Joseph didn’t respond. He took a seat on the sofa next to Sasha, poured himself a glass of expensive
red wine, and remarked casually, “Sasha, when do you plan on returning?”
Sasha tried to read something from Joseph’s stoic face but found nothing. She had lived with him for over a decade, yet his expression was unreadable. She bit her lip slightly and replied cheerfully.
“I’ll leave when you do, Dad.”
That term ‘Dad‘ sounded particularly grating to Joseph at that moment. He knew Sasha as well as she knew him. “Hmm,” he responded noncommittally, sipping the wine and then commenting, “Nice wine.
Sasha was about to speak when Joseph continued, “I’m not going back yet. Claire is missing. I have to
find her.”
“What… what?” Sasha’s shock wasn’t about Claire’s disappearance but that Joseph was actually going to look for her. Her grip on the wine glass tightened, her beautiful brows furrowing deeply. “Why would you go look for her? She doesn’t even acknowledge you as her father!”
A faint smile played on Joseph’s lips, revealing what he had gleaned from Sasha’s reaction. “Whether she acknowledges me or not is her choice, but in my eyes, she is my only daughter, Joseph’s only daughter.”
The word “only” pierced Sasha’s heart like a sharp sword. Despite her earlier suspicions about Claire’s place in Joseph’s heart, hearing it confirmed from his own mouth was a painful blow.

As Sasha’s eyes quickly reddened, Joseph remained indifferent, savoring the lingering taste of the
wine. “Once I find Claire and bring her back, I will publicly announce that she will inherit all of
the Felix family’s fortunes. Sasha, you should leave.”
“Me, leave?” Sasha’s laughter was bitter and hysterical, as if she had just heard the world’s most
ridiculous joke, her carefully made–up face contorting with anger. “Why should I leave? Don’t forget.
Dad, I am currently the head of the Felix family!”
“Oh?” Joseph raised an eyebrow, his lips curling into a sardonic smile. “Are you sure about that?”
“Certain? You’re not certain at all!” Sasha Felix knew better than anyone that the power of the Felix
family had never truly been in her hands. Although Joseph had announced her as the family head, the
family members never showed her the respect they did to him. She had hoped to gain their admiration by winning the title of “Jewel King” at the exhibition and slowly cultivate her own supporters. Yet,
now. without the title and her influence barely established, she felt like a fragile plant in a
storm, easily uprooted.
Joseph’s sarcastic smile stung Sasha’s eyes. Suddenly realizing something, she slammed her wine glass onto the floor and stood up, radiating fury. Pointing at Joseph, she accused venomously. “You never
intended to make me the family head, did you?!”
Her outburst might have shocked anyone else, but Joseph, a seasoned player in life’s games, simply
chuckled lightly in response.
“Indeed, I didn’t.”
