Chapter 156:
These individuals were no different from Caiden—cut from the scloth.
Back when her mother was still alive, they had whispered harshly about her, branding her as domineering and
manipulative, and they didn’t hesitate to spread those tales to anyone outside the family circle. After her
mother’s death, not one of them had bothered to show up at her funeral.
Yet when Katrina had married into the family, they had draped over her, calling her “sister-in-law” with a cloying
sweetness that was almost repulsive.
Over the years, Daniela had distanced herself from these relatives and had no desire to bridge that gap now.
Her priorities lay elsewhere—signing more contracts and boosting the company’s bottom line was far more
appealing.
Once Daniela ended the call, the secretary stepped into the lounge, wearing a practiced, polite smile.

the day. Unfortunately, she won't be able to meet with you.”
Ronald's brow furrowed as he turned to Wyatt, his tone laced with disbelief.
“Seriously? What the hell is her problem? We're her damn uncles, for crying out loud!”
Wyatt rose to his feet, his voice firm as he addressed the assistant.

“Pass this along to Daniela: because of her, we've severed ties with Katrina. We're backing Daniela now. She
needs to cdown and see us.”
The assistant kept a courteous smile plastered on her face.
“I'll convey your message, gentlemen, but as | mentioned earlier, Miss Harper is engaged in a meeting and really
can’t spare any ttoday.”
Wyatt's expression darkened as he turned to Ronald.
“What do we do now? Are we really just going to walk out like this?”
Ronald leaned closer, his voice dropping to a whisper, tinged with urgency.
“Walk out? Are you out of your mind? Katrina is no help with the jobs at Elite Lux. If we don’t talk to Daniela,
we're going to end up jobless and destitute! We stay right here, even if it takes all day. If she won't talk here in
the lounge, we'll confront her in the parking lot. Daniela managed to secure a position for Joyce. Why the hell
can’t she do the sfor us? Aren't we her family too?”
Standing in the parking lot, Wyatt scowled, his irritation clear.
“Why am | the one dealing with Daniela’s mood swings? It's your wife who couldn’t keep her mouth shut and
upset Katrina. How's that my problem?”
Ronald turned, his disbelief evident.
“Not your problem? Are you kidding me? Do you think Katrina's a fool? She's as stuck-up as they come, always
putting Joyce on a pedestal. Do you really believe she'd go out of her way to ask Daniela to help you? Keep
dreaming. Just wait and watch!”
Wyatt let out a heavy sigh, his frustration matching Ronald's. With so many mouths to feed at home, being

asking Daniela for a favor.
“Ronald, do you really think Daniela will help us after all the crap we've said about her and her mother?” Wyatt
asked.
“Why wouldn't she?” Ronald scoffed, his bulky frshaking with disdain.
“If Joyce can land a cushy job, why not us? We're her uncles! And if she refuses, I'll cause a media uproar. She's
a CEO—her reputation matters. She'll have no choice but to give us something. If Joyce can beca director,
we deserve nothing less than a top role, maybe even a CEO gig!”
