Chapter 822:

Daniela’s lips curved. “You’re going to the auction, right? I came to get you.”

Cedric’s fingers pressed into his phone.

He was direct—sometimes, being tough was necessary to make things clear.

He knew that well.

But when he met Daniela’s steady gaze, the words caught in his throat. His voice dropped in frustration. “Daniela…”

Daniela only smiled at him.

Cedric exhaled. “We’re still fighting.”

Daniela nodded, unbothered. “I know. Forgiving me too fast feels too easy, doesn’t it? You’re still not satisfied. That’s fine—I can keep pacifying you.”

Cedric felt his resolve slipping. Daniela was flawless, except for one thing—she was just as stubborn as he was.

“I don’t need you to pacify me, Daniela. I just want to know—who are you really after? Don’t tell me it’s just Natalie and Elyse.”
