Chapter 356:
“Didn’t she agree to letstay here?”
Lillian quickly looked away, shaking her head.
“Where is Daniela?”
Lillian pointed to the villa, and Cedric breathed a sigh of relief.
Inside, Caiden was trying to smooth things over.
“Daniela, this is going too far. Cedric’s been nothing but kind to you. He's wealthy, but he’s willing to stay in this
shabby house with you. How could you push him away like this?”
Caiden opened his mouth to say more, but Daniela turned her head slowly, her cold gaze sweeping over him like
a sharp wind. The sheer intensity of her gaze silenced him instantly. He shrank back, wisely choosing not to
speak another word.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCedric stepped into the living room, then knelt down on the floor, facing Daniela.
Daniela didn’t look up. Her head tilted slightly as she sat on the couch, absentmindedly scrolling through her
tablet, lost in the news.
“Why? Just givea reason,” he asked.
Cedric’s voice quavered as he spoke, his words laced with fear. The possibility that Daniela might remain silent,
withhold an explanation, and simply dismiss him was a terrifying prospect. Thus, when Daniela finally broke her
silence, Cedric released a deep, audible sigh of relief, grateful that she was at least open to conversation.
With a cool, detached lift of her eyes, Daniela posed a chilling question.

“I'll ask you one last time—is there something you're hiding from me?”
Cedric’s heart skipped a beat, freezing him in place.
Caiden, visibly unsettled, quickly took a seat, his smile fading as his anxiety took over.
“Daniela, why are you talking like that? Cedric isn’t your boyfriend. Why does he owe you an explanation for
everything? Why can’t you mind your own business? He's merely a guest in our home. Let him be. After all,
Cedric is an adult—he should be free to make his own choices.”
Daniela, ignoring Caiden’s pleas, maintained her unwavering stare at Cedric.
“Is that how you feel?”
Cedric vehemently shook his head, his response immediate.
“No, that’s not it at all.”
Turning her attention away from him, Daniela’s gaze drifted back to the television.
Her expression was one of calm indifference, but Cedric’s heart hammered against his chest. He knew well that
Daniela was a woman of compassion, yet a single act of betrayal could irreversibly turn her cold and unforgiving.
At that moment, terror seized him completely.
“Do you have anything you want to tell me?” Daniela pressed on, her tone unwaveringly composed.
“I'm asking for the third tnow.”
Caiden, too, was shivering with fear. The thought that Cedric might spill the truth was unbearable; it would mean

How did he ever cto have such a troublesdaughter?
She was bound to wreck everything!
Cedric clamped his mouth shut, his resolve hardening. Daniela rose abruptly, seized his arm with a firm grip, and
pulled him outside, slamming the door shut behind them.
Cedric lingered by the door, a somber figure lost in his thoughts. Caiden hastily exited the villa and approached
Cedric.
