Chapter 1258:

But Daniela had left.

With a sigh, Joyce looked in Cedric’s direction. He was hunched over, hands on his knees; he appeared overwhelmed by fatigue. Perhaps he had finally accepted Daniela’s absence.

In the days that followed, Cedric didn’t move out of the villa as Joyce had imagined. He didn’t even transfer ownership of the villa. Without asking anyone to clear out Daniela’s belongings, Cedric quietly moved into her room and placed his own clothes alongside hers, filling in the empty spaces she had left behind.

By the end of the week, Phillips Group toppled Bennett Group with stunning speed, securing its place as the new titan of national wealth. Joyce, meanwhile, stayed on in the villa. Cedric gave no clear word on her presence—neither a welcome nor a dismissal. He was so busy that Joyce rarely saw him.
