From now on, she was the heiress of the Pallas Group, the successor.

And more than that...

She was the sole successor.

Ann straightened her clothes and walked, with a slight limp, toward the company's main entrance.

Just as she stepped inside, a security guard stopped her. "Miss, who are you here to see?"

"I'm looking for my father!" Ann tilted her chin up haughtily.

The guard looked confused. "And who is your father? Does he work here at Pallas Group?"

"My father is Gavin Templeton!"

Gavin Templeton?!

At the name, the guard's eyes widened in shock.

After all, Gavin Templeton was the founder of the group.

The receptionist hurried over. "Miss, may I have your name? If you're here to see Mr. Templeton, do you have an appointment?"

Ann was exasperated. "My father is Gavin Templeton, what do you think my last name is? And do I need an appointment to see my own father? You people are completely clueless. I have no idea how my dad lets people like you work here!"

She couldn't fathom how someone like Gavin had managed to build such a large company.

Just wait.

Once she took over Pallas Group, she would make it even bigger and stronger. Relying on Gavin wasn't enough.

The receptionist looked troubled. "I'm sorry, but you can't see President Templeton without appointment. Besides, President Templeton isn't in the office right now."

"Not in the office? Then where is he?" Ann frowned at the receptionist. "Arrange a car to take me to my father immediately!"

The receptionist glanced at Ann. "I'm sorry, miss, but I don't have the authority to arrange a car for you. Since you claim to be President Templeton's daughter, you could contact him, and he could have his secretary inform the front desk."

She had been with the company for over two years and had never once heard that Gavin Templeton had a daughter this age.

For all she knew, this woman was a fraud.

"If I could get in touch with my father, I wouldn't be wasting my breath with you!" Ann was furious. "I'll give you one last chance. Get me a car right now, or else when I find my father, I'll have him fire all of you!"

The security guard rolled his eyes in disbelief. "Yeah, right. Someone like you has the nerve to impersonate President Templeton's daughter Besides what daughter can't get in touch with her own father? I think you're a fraud!"

At that, the guard motioned to two other guards. "Get this liar out of here!"

"Right away."

Just like that, Ann was dragged out.

It was humiliating.

Ann lay on the ground, seething. "You just wait! All of you, just wait! I'll make you pay for this!"

She was Gavin's only daughter, his only blood relative in the world.

If Gavin found out about this, he would definitely stand up for her. After being thrown out, Ann had to find another way to see Gavin.

She searched online for a long time and finally, in the comments section of some webpage, found the name of the residential complex where Gavin currently lived.

It was a high-end complex where apartments sold for a fortune, and security was tight. Without facial recognition, ordinary people couldn't get in Even food de

So, Ann had to wait until evening, when more people were coming and going. She

slipped in behind a resident who was returning home.

Once inside, Ann found Gavin's building. He lived on the 31st floor. Since she couldn't use the elevator, she took the stairs.

Fifteen minutes later, limping and out of breath, Ann finally reached the 31st floor.

Standing in front of apartment 3101, she excitedly rang the doorbell.

Ding-dong, ding-dong-

Soon, the door opened.

The person who opened it was none other than Gavin.

Seeing Ann, Gavin froze for a moment.

Ann's voice was filled with emotion. "Dad!"

"What are you doing here?" There was none of the surprise or joy in Gavin's eyes that Ann had expected.

Ann figured he must be so happy to see her that he was momentarily stunned. At his age, what man wouldn't want his daughter by his side?

"Dad, I came all this way just to find you. From now on, I'll take good care of you!"

Just then, a middle-aged woman holding a child walked over. Seeing Ann at the door, she asked curiously, "Gavin, who is this?"
