Chapter 7 - THE SECRET IN THE DOSSIER

In his top-floor executive suite, Ethan opened a red leather folder delivered by a private investigator.
The folder contained background files regarding Hannah, the twenty-five-year-old house maid who had saved his daughter.
Ethan flipped through birth records and medical documents, his dark eyes widening in genuine shock.
"Hannah isn't just an ordinary maid," Ethan murmured aloud, reading the certified documents carefully.
The files revealed that Hannah was actually the biological daughter of Ethan’s late business partner, Marcus Vance.
After Marcus died in a mysterious helicopter crash five years ago, Eleanor Montgomery had forged inheritance documents to steal Hannah's trust fund.
Reduced to complete poverty, Hannah had taken a humble maid job at the estate just to stay close to her family's original home.
Ethan clenched his jaw tightly, his hand crushing the corner of the leather folder in righteous anger.
"She didn't just assault a child," Ethan realized, his voice trembling with dark fury. "She stole this girl's entire life."
He picked up his desk phone, dialing his security chief immediately.
