Chapter 600:

Joyce saw it, and it only made her laugh harder.

“You know, when I was messing around with men and had a kid, your father once said Daniela wouldn’t have done anything like that. He said I was no match for her. If Cedric were in your shoes today, he wouldn’t be crawling back to me, begging for money like you. He wouldn’t lower himself. So you’re not better than Cedric either.

You were never worthy of Daniela.

You and I? We’re the same. So stop chasing things that are beyond your reach. Do you really think you deserve it?”

Joyce’s words cut deep, offering no space for mercy.

She laughed again, but this time, it was more maniacal.

“Do you honestly think rebuilding your company will change anything? That Daniela will look at you differently? What do you think—you’re going to make it that big? How laughable! Every time your business hit a crisis, who was there to bail you out? Daniela, remember? Your so-called ‘business talent’ doesn’t even hold a candle to hers.

You’re just like everyone else—ordinary. And that’s why, when Daniela left, you couldn’t even handle a small setback. And here you are again, begging me for money. Let me guess, are you going to say it again tonight? That you’ll ‘serve me just this once’? Go ahead, say what you want, but in the end, you’ll always crawl back to me, using my money to feed your fragile pride.”

Her words hit like a series of heavy blows.
