Chapter 1802
Yet his principles wouldn’t let him absolve her by blaming others. Kylee wasn’t the innocent victim here; she had only faced the consequences of her own choices.
Since she had aligned with the wrong people, she couldn’t expect a good outcome.
At that time, Kylee had been consumed by a burning desire for vengeance. She had been willing to do anything to make Belinda pay, even if it meant inviting catastrophe.
That reckless obsession had led to the mess she was in now.
Elwood fixed Kylee with a serious gaze, his words heavy with conviction. “Kylee, learning about what you’ve been through broke my heart. But I have to be clear—this situation is entirely of your own making. You can’t pin the blame on anyone else.”
Kylee’s sobs stopped abruptly.
She looked up, staring at Elwood, her tear-streaked face contorted with shock. How could he say something like that to her?
Did he actually think she deserved this?
Her voice trembled with emotion as she choked out, “I’m starting to wonder if you’re even my father! How can you be so cold to me?”
Elwood’s expression remained steady, unshaken by her accusation.
“It’s because I’m your father that I’m saying this. You need to recognize your mistakes. If I always took your side, even when you were wrong, I’d only be enabling you to spiral further down the wrong path. I don’t want my daughter to become that kind of person. If I don’t guide you, the world will, and the consequences could be far harsher. I don’t want that for you. Do you understand what I’m saying?”
Kylee didn’t respond, her lips pressed tightly together, her face dark.
Before she could say anything, Elwood continued, “I had intended to transfer ten percent of my shares in the Stellar Nexus Group to you. But given your actions, I think I still need to consider this for some time.”
Kylee’s eyes widened in shock, her mind reeling.

What?
Ten percent of the Stellar Nexus Group’s shares? The value was staggering!
The Stellar Nexus Group was Elwood’s company, and owning ten percent of the shares would secure her future forever.
It wasn’t just about money—it was the promise of a life dripping with extravagance. She could buy anything she desired without a second thought. Who wouldn’t want that?
But what did Elwood mean by that last sentence?
Kylee fixed Elwood with a searching look, her voice sharp. “So, you’re disappointed in me just because of something Belinda said?”
Elwood didn’t directly answer her question. Instead, he replied calmly, “You’ll always be my daughter—that’s a fact that won’t change. But in your current state, I can’t entrust you with ten percent of the shares. That’s all right, though. I have time to watch how you grow and change until I’m confident you’re ready. When I return home today, I’ll speak with your grandmother about arranging a banquet to officially recognize you as my daughter.”
