Chapter 348:
Caiden smirked.
“Look, | know you don’t have any feelings for Daniela. And honestly, you probably don’t care much if I spill the
truth to her. But think about it—it could still work in your favor. Daniela is now the CEO of Elite Lux. If she thinks
more favorably of you, it wouldn't hurt your position, and it might even help the Bennett family, wouldn't it?”
Caiden’s grin widened as he added, “We're practically family now, Alexander. I'm not asking for much—just five
hundred thousand. What do you say?”
Alexander’s brows furrowed as he considered the offer. After a brief pause, he nodded and replied, “Alright.”
He made the transfer on the spot. With the transaction complete, he left without another word.
Caiden watched him leave, staring at the empty space where Alexander had stood moments before. He
muttered to himself, “I should've asked for more.” The ease with which Alexander had agreed was infuriating.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLater that evening, Katrina listened intently as Caiden recounted the incident. She folded her arms and tilted her
head slightly.
“So you're saying Alexander handed over the money without a fight?”
Caiden nodded, placing his glass of water back on the table.
“Exactly. And Cedric’s three hundred million should arrive tomorrow. The bank staff already confirmed that the
transfer has been initiated, but it's a huge sum, so they're double-checking it with Cedric.”
Galis your destination for fiction
Katrina's eyes lingered on the screen displaying the money Alexander had sent. Her fingers drummed lightly
against the table as her mind wandered.
Was Alexander being generous to rebuild his relationship with Daniela, or did he still harbor feelings for her?
Could it be that Alexander hadn’t fully moved on from Daniela while he was going to marry Joyce?
Katrina walked downstairs and spotted Joyce lounging on the couch, playing a gon her phone. Approaching
her daughter, she asked, “Joyce, Alexander's been staying hfor a few days now. Have you two had any
meaningful conversations in the evenings?”
Joyce understood the implication behind her mother’s question. She shook her head and replied casually, “No.
Alexander’s been tied up with a merger deal lately.”
Katrina let out a sharp breath, her patience wearing thin.
“Busy or not, he still has to take breaks.
You should find a way to talk to him!”
Joyce frowned and pouted in response.
“What's there to talk about? Honestly, | didn’t notice it before, but now that we're living together, it’s clear how
dull Alexander's life really is. All he ever does is work. | can’t even hold a decent conversation with him.
Honestly, chatting about e-games with Daniela is more entertaining than trying to talk to him.”
Katrina's jaw tightened as she gasped in disbelief. She struggled to comprehend how her daughter could be so
apathetic.
“You think Alexander is boring? Have you even considered where your luxurious lifestyle comes from? The
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmoney for your expensive meals, designer clothes, and endless comforts doesn’t just appear out of thin air. If
you married someone incompetent, you'd have to work for a living. Do you think you could handle the realities of
working life?”
Joyce set her phone down and looked up at Katrina.
“I have you, Mom.
You've always ensured | have a good life. Why would that ever change?”
