Chapter 1677:

A wave of doubt crept over Hamilton. No matter how he tried, something about this investment just didn’t sit right.

Noticing his silence, Ethan elbowed him. “Come on, Hamilton! Don’t just stand there quiet. You aren’t trying to weasel out, are you?”

“Of course not,” Hamilton retorted, cheeks reddening. “If we actually see a profit, every cent will go to Daniela. This month, though, we’re flat broke, so we need a place to stay.” His pride stung, knowing how pitiful he must look—an old man, investment gone south, having to rely on his own daughter-in-law for a roof. “You’ll get your money as soon as we have it.”

As soon as he finished, all eyes turned to Daniela, silently begging for her answer.

A quick nod from Daniela settled the matter. “No problem. You’ve got a month. I’ll just tack the rent onto your bill later.”

That was all Ethan and Brad needed to hear. Instantly, their faces lit up, both showering Daniela with thanks for her understanding.

Hamilton alone kept glancing Daniela’s way, the ease in her expression only deepening his suspicion that this investment was doomed to fail.
