Chapter 359


Chapter 359:

Everyone thought Daniela had brushed off the incident, but Cedric sensed a shift in her demeanor. On the surface, she offered him smiles, but they never reached her eyes; they were just a facade. She allowed him to stay but rarely inquired about his well-being. When he came home late, the warm milk that Josie used to prepare at Daniela’s behest was conspicuously absent. On rainy days, Daniela no longer had someone pack an extra shirt and suit in the car for him.

Only when these courtesies vanished did Cedric realize how much he had taken for granted the closeness between him and Daniela before.

Caiden seemed blind to the change in Daniela, consumed with the three hundred million dollars, only to be chased off by Cedric.

As time passed, everyone started to notice Daniela’s growing distance from Cedric.

It wasn’t just a physical distance but a breach in the silent understanding that once connected them.

Alexander was secretly pleased with this development. He felt his time with the Harper family had been fruitful. No matter how charming Cedric appeared, he had reached an impasse with Daniela. The difference was that Daniela had once doggedly pursued Alexander for a decade, which gave him a sense of superiority. So, when Cedric was no longer welcomed in Daniela’s room, Alexander could almost feel Cedric’s dismay.

Holding a beer, Alexander joined Cedric in the pavilion, seating himself next to him.
