Chapter 1484:

Then, turning his full attention to Daniela, he added with deliberate calm, “I actually met with Cedric in private. Didn’t he mention it? It happened right here, in this restaurant. The king and princess were dining upstairs that day. When they spotted Cedric, they were struck by his poise and presence. Later, they approached me, hoping Cedric could marry the princess.”

He leaned forward, eyes glinting with calculated persuasion. “Daniela, you have to see the bigger picture. The royal family wields real power—not just money, but true status and influence. That’s something you can never give Cedric, no matter how wealthy you are. There’s more to life than cash. A man needs dignity, prestige—the chance to move in circles that will open up the world.”

With a sweeping glance, Hamilton looked Carol up and down, his voice dripping with contempt.

“He deserves better than to be surrounded by brash, unrefined company—people who can’t keep their voices down or behave with the slightest grace. Look at her. Is that really the world Cedric should belong to? I respect you, Daniela. You’ve always put Cedric’s interests first. So just think about it. Wouldn’t he be better off as a member of the royal family, rather than just your husband?”

Daniela’s eyes locked onto Hamilton with icy disdain.

Hamilton let his words hang in the air before delivering the final blow, voice low and coaxing.

“The princess even said she’s willing to compensate you. Whatever you want in exchange for a clean break—just say the word. We’ll make sure you’re satisfied.”

He watched Daniela’s impassive face, searching for a flicker of reaction.
