NovelUSAChapter 1228:
Daniela turned her gaze toward Cedric, seated beside her.
Without a word, she quietly stepped out of the car and whispered to Cedric, “I need to take this call.”
Cedric simply assumed it was business—he never meddled in her corporate affairs.
So, with a nod, he and Carol made their way into the villa.
Once alone, Daniela’s voice turned cool and steady. “Mr. McCoy.”
Hamilton chuckled, short and dry. “We're all family, aren't we? Don’t you think you were a little too ruthless
tonight?”
Standing in the villa’s garden, encircled by the soft bloom of flowers Cedric had lovingly planted, Daniela drew in
a breath of the faint, calming scent. A deep sense of ease settled over her.
“Ruthless?” Daniela echoed, her tone unbothered. “I wouldn't say that.”
Hamilton let out a knowing chuckle. “Sounds like Cedric means a lot to you.”

Daniela didn't hesitate. “He does.”
Even with those three missing years, Cedric still held a place that couldn't be shaken.
Hamilton hadn't expected her to be so candid. He thought Daniela would mask her feelings and act indifferent
toward Cedric.
Hamilton chuckled, this talmost fondly. “That's good. Cvisit Oiscoll sometime—we’ll share a meal. You'll
enjoy it.”
Daniela’s response was sharper, cutting through the pleasantries. “I don’t like Oiscoll.”
Hamilton's smile faltered. People didn’t turn down invitations from the richest man in the world—not even
someone like Daniela.
Still, Hamilton knew how to bide his twith valuable people. “Very well, cwhen it suits you. I'll entrust my
three idiotic sons to you in the meantime.”

Daniela’s expression didn’t shift. Through the tall window panes, she spotted Cedric at the counter, preparing
juice.
Watching Cedric quietly, she said coldly, “Mr. McCoy, if you truly care about your sons, call them back before
they embarrass themselves further.”
Daniela was the only one who ever dared speak to Hamilton so bluntly. Hamilton's silence was heavy—Daniela
caught the subtle hiss of his strained breath through the line.
She heard it but remained unfazed. “Well then, goodbye.” She ended the call and turned back to the house.
Just as her hand reached the doorknob, Cedric swung the door open with a smile, offering her a glass of juice.
“Here—this should top up your vitamins.”
Daniela accepted it and took a $p,
