Twin Treasures: The CEO Wife's 99-Day of Revelations

Chapter 1013: Chapter 1013: Mia Lane Faces Her Heart

”But I think...” Justin Kingston held her hand, saying softly, ”Family ties are indispensable.”

”Mia, just like you once helped us, the Kingston family, resolve the conflicts between two generations.”

He said sincerely, ”You let us all feel the warmth of a home, helping my mom and Anton Ford move forward.”

”So, Mia, now I want to help you too.”

”I think that by collaborating with The Dalton Group, as long as you have more interactions with him, your inner thoughts will waver. As long as you want to acknowledge this father, you two can quickly reunite.”

She was very touched by his gesture.

”Of course I want to acknowledge him.” Mia Lane sat on the sofa, setting down the appraisal report, a wave of emotion washing over her, ”Every time I see him at the company, I want to call him dad.”

”But...”

”Seeing him live happily and stably, with the company thriving, I really don’t want to disrupt this peace.”

”I’m worried he won’t be able to accept it; after all, we haven’t met in twenty years, and I don’t know what he’s thinking.”

”Silly girl.” Justin Kingston sat beside her, wrapping his arm around her shoulder, ”You’re overthinking it this time. Your dad really wants to recognize you as his daughter; he’s been searching for you!”

Mia Lane turned her gaze suddenly, looking at him in disbelief, ”You talked?”

”Yes.” Justin Kingston nodded, no longer concealing, ”He’s been waiting for the right moment, waiting for you to take that step.”

He said, ”Over these years, your dad never stopped looking for you; he’s always loved you, never forgotten you.”

Mia Lane was skeptical... but her dad’s life seemed very happy and stable.

”He’s seen this appraisal report too.” Justin Kingston asked softly, ”The cake he bought for you, does it resemble the taste from your childhood?”

With his reminder, Mia Lane thought carefully, and indeed it was!

Justin Kingston told her, ”Your dad personally went queueing up, trying many cake shops, comparing one by one. He said you like cream cakes, the kind that’s smooth yet not greasy.”

Upon hearing this, Mia Lane’s eyes gradually blurred with tears. She picked up her wine glass and lowered her gaze.

”I don’t know what he’s thinking...” She took a deep breath, feeling touched yet saddened.

”He never works overtime.” Justin Kingston added, ”But recently, he stays late, just to spend more time with you.”

Ultimately, she couldn’t hold back the tears that wet her eyes. Mia Lane tilted her head back and took a sip of wine.

She put down the wine glass, covering her eyes with both hands.

An unspeakable emotion spread across her heart... those distant memories unwilling to remain sealed in a corner, tormenting her thoughts.

”Stella, this half of the Jade Pendant is your birthday gift, you’re daddy’s most precious little girl.”

That afternoon, in the Dalton family’s yard, the sunshine was warm.

Dad happily lifted her up, kissing her face dotingly, over and over.

”Dad, why is it only half?” She curiously played with the Jade Pendant, asking innocently, ”Did it break?”

Receiving such a precious gift, she felt a bit puzzled.

”No.” Father explained patiently, ”There’s another half to this Jade Pendant, when combined, it forms a whole piece. The other half is with daddy.”

”Thank you for the birthday gift, dad. I really like it.”

At that moment, she was extremely happy, holding the Jade Pendant high above her head, dazzling in the sunlight, it was incredibly beautiful.

”Dad likes you too... sweetie.”

Remembering this past, Mia Lane burst into tears.

Justin Kingston reached out to hold her, as she buried her head in his lap, ”Wuu wuu...” crying sorrowfully, ”I always thought he forgot me... without me, he could still live well.”

The emotions suppressed for twenty years finally began to pour out.

Justin Kingston felt it was a good thing, finally bravely facing the inner self.
