Chapter 1253:
“There's nothing between us that merits discussion,” Cedric responded with a cool lift of his eyelids.
“If nothing else, perhaps we could discuss Daniela?” Nikolas proposed.
As Cedric’s driver pulled away, the two made their way to a nearby pavilion.
“You're aware Daniela is backing Charles now, right?” Nikolas began.
Cedric’s expression remained unaffected.
“Do you aspire to rise to power yourself, Cedric?” Nikolas pressed further.
Casting a measured glance at Nikolas, Cedric understood that such an offer would not cwithout a motive.
The only reason Nikolas would approach him was out of a sense of threat. Without a doubt, that threat had come
from Daniela.
“And you wantto join your side?” Cedric asked, clearly aware that Nikolas had made it known he had no
interest in the McCoy fortune. Cedric recognized Nikolas’s approach as both a test and an attempt at forming an
alliance. “You wantto deal with my wife?”
The moment the word “wife” slipped from Cedric’s lips, Nikolas’s brows tightened ever so slightly.
Given the tense circumstances, Cedric referring to Daniela as his “wife” felt almost too personal—like crossing an
invisible line.
Nikolas had always seen Cedric as dangerously intelligent, and that sharp intellect now made him uneasy. When
you tangled with the sharp-minded, one misstep could land you checkmated before you even saw the board.
Still, Nikolas knew he had no better option. Of all people, Cedric was the one man Daniela wouldn't want to hurt.
“I'm not asking you to do anything else,” Nikolas said, his voice tight. “All I need is for you to keep Daniela in
check.”

Cedric chuckled, the sound dripping with scorn, as if he'd just heard the biggest joke of the century.

“I can give you something in return!” Nikolas blurted, panic rising as Cedric turned to walk away.
Cedric didn’t even flinch. To him, Nikolas had nothing of value—nothing worth staying for.
“Daniela!” Nikolas cried out, a last-ditch plea spilling from his throat.
Then, Cedric froze. He turned back slowly, his eyes narrowing like a blade being drawn. “What did you just say?”
Nikolas jumped at the chance to
respond. “I said Daniela! Cedric, she's
lost her memories. Right now, to her,
you're just another face in the crowd.
Maybe there's a flicker of connection,

making plans to go to Oiscoll—with
Charles by her side. You're not part of
that plan, Cedric. She doesn't intend
to bring you along. But if you work
with me, you'll have every right to go
with us to Oiscoll. And once you're
there, you'll have the chance to win
her back. Isn't that a better shot than
waiting here? Daniela’s forgotten
everything. If she heads to Oiscoll
alone, can you honestly sit back and
feel at peace?” The content is on
