Chapter 1083:

Daniela skimmed the message Carol presented and, without a flicker of concern, said, “Don’t bother.” Carol gave a curt nod and left.

Richard, still smiling, chimed in, “What’s the hushed talk about, my dear?” Daniela remained indifferent, but Richard was relentless, flipping through photos on his phone like a man on a mission.
