Richard Lancaster, who lost his wife three years ago, had invited a number of glamorous models to his mansion. They arrived beautifully dressed, wearing shining jewellery and expensive gowns. The aim was simple: Amelia was expected to choose one of them as her new mother.
But when the time came, little Amelia, dressed in a sky-blue gown, surprised everyone. She looked around the room, ignored the models, and then raised her small finger towards Clara, the maid who had worked quietly in the household.
“Daddy, I choose her,” Amelia said clearly.
The room fell into shock. Clara, wearing her simple black dress and apron, placed her hand on her chest in disbelief. She tried to protest, saying softly, “Me? Amelia… no, darling, I am just…”
Gasps and whispers spread across the room as the models stood frozen, and even the billionaire himself was unable to say a word. Richard Lancaster, known in business for his sharp tongue and ability to win any deal, found himself facing the firm decision of his daughter.
In an attempt to change her mind, Richard offered Amelia trips to Paris, expensive new dolls, and even promised her a puppy. But Amelia shook her head every single time and repeated the same words: “I want Clara.”
The tension grew stronger at the breakfast table the next morning. With her small hands holding her glass tightly, Amelia warned her father, “If you do not let her stay, I will not speak to you again.”
For the first time in many years, Richard Lancaster was left completely silent. His daughter’s words left him without a response. Slowly, he began to notice what Amelia had seen all along—the care, the kindness, and the quiet love that Clara had shown the little girl when no one else was paying attention.
The unexpected choice of Amelia has now become the centre of discussion among those who witnessed it. A billionaire’s carefully arranged plan was overturned by the simple, honest wish of his daughter, who found love and comfort not in wealth or glamour, but in the maid who treated her with warmth and kindness.
