“What?! What did you do to my child?!”
Derek panicked, grabbing my collar.
I shook his hand off and made a call.
“You want to see your child, right? Fine, I’ll have someone bring her over.”
Half an hour later.
My assistant led a person built like a small mountain into the room.
Her hair was cut very short, she was five feet three inches tall, weighed 160 pounds, and her features seemed almost lost in the roundness of her face.
Derek was utterly dumbfounded. “How can this fatty be my daughter?!”
“Are you deliberately bringing a fatty here to humiliate me?!”
I was speechless at his paranoia.

I waved at the girl, and she walked up to me, excitedly asking, “Uncle! You said my daddy is here to see me, is it true?”
“Of course, it’s true.”
I smiled and pointed to the red string around her neck. She pulled up the string, revealing a silver bracelet threaded onto it.
“Derek, do you see this silver bracelet? You put this bracelet on your child’s wrist back then. Now she’s grown, but the bracelet hasn’t changed. You should be able to recognize it, right?”
The bracelet was tiny, sized perfectly for a baby’s wrist, and it even had Derek’s initials engraved on it.
At the sight of it, he froze as if struck by lightning. He was completely stunned.
Sarah shrieked, her body swaying. “You! How could you let the child become like this?!”
The girl flinched, startled by her scream, and recoiled a bit.
I patted her shoulder reassuringly. “Don’t be afraid. They are your biological parents. Go on

The girl let out a joyful bellow and lunged forward. Her massive frame made Sarah’s face go
white
with horror.
“Ah! My back!”
The slender Sarah couldn’t withstand the girl’s impact. She was knocked to the ground, clutching her back and wailing in pain.
The girl, however, was overjoyed. She scrambled up and lunged at Derek again, making him stumble.
“Daddy! Daddy!”
Derek shoved her away in disgust. “Get off me, you fat slob!”
The girl froze for a moment, then burst into loud sobs, tears and snot smearing all over her face, making Derek even more repulsed. He retreated several more steps.
I watched him with amusement. “Derek, isn’t this your

I was impressed by his wild imagination.
“I’m not as heartless as you are. This child is so robust simply because she eats and drinks a lot. All fifty thousand dollars you gave me, I spent entirely on her. I didn’t shortchange her one bit.”
After this child was forced upon me, I sent her directly to an orphanage.

The fifty thousand dollars Derek gave me, I didn’t take a single penny. I bought food and drinks with all of it and sent it to the orphanage.
This child loved to eat from a young age and was always the most enthusiastic eater at the orphanage.
