Chapter 512:
Cedric had once given Caiden a chance to prove himself. When Caiden last departed, he must have sensed
Katrina's brewing schemes. A single word of caution to protect Daniela would have sufficed, yet Caiden remained
silent. Instead, he chose flight over fight, preoccupied with his own safety.
Such a man was unfit to be called a father.
Cedric didn’t wait for a response. He took Daniela by the hand and led her to her room.
Daniela sighed, and as Cedric held her, she patted his back.
“Why waste anger on someone like him?”
Cedric, still fuming, replied, “Daniela, | don’t understand why you're still smiling. My heart breaks for you!”
Daniela didn’t care in the slightest. Caiden had always been the epitof selfishness, driven solely by his own

The very idea of seeing him as a father had faded into irrelevance for her years ago.
But Cedric couldn’t understand Daniela’s apathy. Though he only had one family member, his grandmother, she
had loved him dearly. Whenever he interacted with Caiden, he couldn't help but cling to a faint hope that Caiden
might show a bit more kindness towards Daniela.
It was a glimpse of Cedric’s own humanity—a part of him that remained tender and idealistic despite his hard-
earned success.
Watching Cedric’s frustration with Caiden often made Daniela think about how, despite being a billionaire CEO,
he still carried a soft, vulnerable heart. It touched her in a way she hadn't expected.
Maybe it was because someone else still held on to what she had long since given up on.

When Daniela cdown the stairs, she was greeted by the sight of Caiden pacing angrily, his face flushed with
frustration.
“Daniela! Do you even know what Cedric has done to me?” he complained.
Daniela’s face remained unreadable. Of course, she knew. Caiden had been leveraging her and Cedric’s names
to secure business opportunities. After the funds landed in Harper Group's accounts, he conveniently labeled
them as profits and distributed them as dividends.
The sums weren't significant—just tens of thousands a month at most.
Yet, Caiden basked in the illusion of success. At first, he knew full well that his so-called achievements stemmed
from Daniela’s and Cedric’s reputations. But as tpassed, he began to convince himself he was a brilliant
businessman.
Cedric, however, had reached his limit. With one decisive move, he severed every business tie Caiden had built.
“Cedric told everyone in the industry that if they even think about working with me, he’ll blacklist them. Is this
how he plans to go against me?” Caiden asked, his voice rising in frustration.

“Isn't it clear?” she replied coolly.
Caiden almost sputtered in fury.
“Daniela! | brought you into this world. How can you just stand there and let this happen to me?” he demanded,
his face flushed with anger.
A faint smile tugged at Daniela’s lips.
“My mother broughtinto this world, not you,” she said calmly.
