Tina’s Collapse
Secondly, everyone would no longer question him and would praise him for being righteous after he
cuts ties with Tina and reveals her true identity. After all, he raised an orphan as his own daughter, yet
she caused such harm toward him and Triforce Enterprise.
Even people from the corporate world would not ostracize him, for raising an orphan to such an age
was enough to prove that he’s a faithful and righteous person.(get daily update on chapternovel.com)
He has no choice but to cut ties with her because she has gone too far. With that, people would pity
him and approach him to form partnerships.
Now, let’s see if he’ll reveal her true identity. Sonia narrowed her eyes at Titus in the video.
At that moment, she realized that she had underestimated him.
All this while, she thought that this was the end for Titus. Who knew that he had a secret weapon to get
through such a crisis.
As expected, she was still young and inexperienced to fight with an old fox who had many tricks up his
sleeve.
He had lived a few decades more than her. Thus, it was not unusual that he knew more tricks than her.
At the hospital, Toby furrowed his brows and stared at Titus without saying a single word.
Standing in one corner, Tom exclaimed, “No way! He must have gone mad to cut ties with Tina right
now! The netizens would praise him for doing a good job at sacrificing his family to uphold justice and
righteousness. (get daily update on chapternovel.com) However, they would be disgusted if he cuts ties
with her right now because she’s still his daughter, even if she’s at fault. They would also withdraw their
support for him as he’s cruel enough to cut ties with her when she’s in jail. As a result, the corporate
world would never accept him. Is he crazy?”
“No, he’s not crazy. Look at him—he’s calm and quiet. (get daily update on chapternovel.com) It’s the
look of a person who’s confident in solving a problem. Besides, that old fart couldn’t have not thought of
the things that you just mentioned. Yet, he went ahead with it, so this must mean there’s something we
don’t know. It must be something that can help whitewash his deeds,” Toby uttered with pursed lips.
Hearing this, Tom widened his eyes. “You mean he has a trump card?”
Toby raised his chin noncommittally. “We’ll see. The reporters will help answer our doubts.”
Sure enough, the reporters on site bombarded Titus with a series of sharp-edged questions as soon as
they came back to their senses.
“President Gray, are you sure that you want to sever your relationship with your daughter?”
“Yes!” he replied.
Then, the reporters asked, “Don’t you think it’s untimely and cruel for you to cut ties with her now?”
“Yeah, she’s your daughter, after all. Even if she has many wrongdoings, it’s cold-blooded of you to cut
ties with her right now. Are you doing this so that you won’t be not involved?”
As Titus looked at the reporters, he gripped the microphone and answered solemnly, “I admit that I
shouldn’t have announced my severance with Tina at this point in time. However, I do not think that I’m
being cruel. On the contrary, I’ve treated her quite fairly by raising her without asking for any
repayment, so the least she could do was not cause the Grays and Triforce Enterprise such trouble. I’m
pretty sure everyone is aware of Triforce Enterprise’s situation. To ensure that Triforce Enterprise
continues to advance, I can only declare my severance with her because she’s not my biological
daughter!”
The whole audience was shocked as soon as he made this statement.
Upon hearing this, Tom gasped. “Tina’s not his biological daughter!”
Meanwhile, a hint of surprise flashed in Toby’s eyes, but it soon disappeared.
That’s right. Before this, he had neglected an important issue—Tina and Rina’s age.
Tina’s 26 years old, and so is Rina. This is impossible if they had the same mother because Mrs. Gray
never had twins.
Tina only started showing up at the Grays’ Residence a year after Rina’s ‘death’. Titus told everyone
that she was Mrs. Gray’s child because nobody suspected anything since a year had passed. However,
her age didn’t start when she started showing up at the Grays’ Residence. (get daily update on
chapternovel.com) This point was missed by many as people paid little attention to her age. That’s why
many people didn’t realize anything was wrong with Tina’s identity.
At the Bayside Residence, Sonia didn’t seem surprised when Titus revealed Tina’s identity because
she had already guessed it.
That was the only thing he could do to get out of this mess.
In the Grays’ mansion, Julia and Rina had also heard what Titus had said.
Upon hearing it, Julia covered her face and cried.
Meanwhile, Rina trembled with excitement.
Tina’s not Mom and Dad’s biological daughter. And now, Dad has severed their father-daughter
relationship. This means that she can’t come back to the Gray Family even after being released from
jail in the future. The Gray Family is mine alone now.
Thinking about this, her heart raced. She would’ve shouted with joy if it wasn’t inappropriate to do so
then.
Then, she took a deep breath and suppressed the overwhelming joy inside her. Gazing at Julia, Rina
pretended to be stunned. “Mom, is Tina really not your daughter?”
In response, Julia froze. Right after, she cried as she nodded. “Yes.”
The corner of Rina’s mouth tugged upward as soon as she got her answer. Then, she hugged Julia.
“It’s alright. I’ll honor you and Dad as your daughter and in Tina’s place.”
“Oh, Rina…” Julia buried her face in Rina’s shoulder and wept even harder.
Last night, Titus had already told Julia that he would cut ties with Tina. Initially, she had objected to this
decision, but he warned that they would go bankrupt if he didn’t do so, so she had no choice but to give
in.
Hopefully, Tina understands. I’ll take good care of her even when she’s no longer a Gray after being
released from jail.
Tina was also watching the press conference from the detention center. The police specially approved
it.
She was dying to rush out of the detention center and kill Titus as she watched him announce cutting
ties with her.
He must think that I’m clueless. He’s only cutting ties so that he’s no longer involved with me and won’t
get dragged down. (get daily update on chapternovel.com) As expected, there’s no long-term
relationship in this world, even if it’s familial love, because one can be discarded at any time.
Still, she was dumbfounded as she watched him announce that she wasn’t his biological daughter.
Right then, she would’ve stood up immediately if she wasn’t handcuffed in a wheelchair.
I’m not his biological daughter? How can this be? It’s impossible! How can I not be his biological
daughter?
At once, her face turned pale. Shaking her head with hopelessness in her eyes, she couldn’t bring
herself to believe this.
At the press conference site, the reporters pressed on even harder.
“President Gray, is what you just said true? Is Tina really not your and Mrs. Gray’s biological daughter?”
“It’s true.”
“Do you have any proof? Or did you say it just so you could disassociate yourself from her to protect
yourself and Triforce Enterprise?”
“I’m not talking nonsense, and I have proof. Here.” Titus picked up a document from the table. “Here
are our paternity tests and the adoption papers from 25 years ago.”
As he said this, he unfolded the document and showed it to the camera.
With that, everyone could see the contents of the documents clearly. They were indeed the paternity
test and adoption papers.
Yet, someone contested, “The paternity test and adoption procedures could be faked, so they can’t be
considered as evidence.”
