Chapter 66:
“If the timing had been different,” he continued, “you'd know exactly what Cedric was going to say.”
Daniela let out a small laugh, though her face showed a flash of irritation. The Harper family had already stirred
enough trouble, and she wasn’t in the mood to deal with Alexander now.
She stopped in the hallway, standing tall in her sleek high heels, and locked eyes with Alexander. Her voice was
flat as she asked, “So what? Mr. Bennett, why does it concern you?”
Alexander's face turned serious.
“It’s none of my business. But I'll tell you this—Cedric has big plans. He has a reason for coming after you.”
Daniela couldn’t hold back another laugh at his words. Her voice dripped with sarcasm.
“Oh really? Cedric has an agenda? And what about you? What's your plan? What makes you think you're in a
position to giveadvice? What part are you playing in this? Are you saying you don’t have a plan?”

Alexander stood still, his eyes cold and full of dark intent. Fine, he thought bitterly. If she couldn't see his good
intentions, then she'd face the consequences when the tcame.
When Daniela stepped back into the private room, her eyes immediately found Cedric. One glance told her he
had regained his usual calm demeanor. She smiled as she approached him.

“Ready to go? If you are, let's head back.”
Cedric nodded in response.
He drove Daniela hin his car, pulling up in front of her building. She thanked him before getting out of the
car.
Just as she was about to walk away, Cedric called out to her.
Daniela sighed quietly to herself before turning around slowly. By the tshe did, Cedric had already gotten out
of the car. He was standing beside it, his expression more serious than usual.
“Daniela, you're smart.
You must have sidea of what | want to say. | know now isn’t the right moment or the right situation to say it.
So for now, just think ofas an old classmate, a friend, or whatever label works for you.”
He took a deep breath, his eyes steady and sincere.
“I just want you to know, if you ever need help—anything at all, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me.”
After a brief pause, he continued, “And one more thing.
You're a good person, Daniela. The problem isn’t you—it’s them. Don’t be upset because of someone who
doesn’t deserve you.”
A cold breeze swept through the street, carrying a hint of chill. Daniela stood motionless, her long hair flowing
gently in the breeze. A faint smile graced her lips—subtle, yet captivating in its charm.
It wasn’t often that Cedric—the ever-composed and calculating man, renowned for his sharp strategies and icy
demeanor—opened up like this.
Yet here he was, speaking so openly, his words carrying genuine emotion.

“You really don’t need to thank me,” Cedric replied almost instantly, his gaze resting on her with a hint of
uncertainty. There were so many things he wanted to say, so much he wanted to do for her, but he held back,
fearing he might push too far and scare her off. Finally, he just said, “If your housekeeper decides to leave, don’t
worry about it. | know an excellent housekeeper who's currently looking for work. | could introduce her to you
tomorrow if that works for you.”
Before Daniela could say anything, Cedric quickly added, “She's already searching for a job, so honestly, you'd
be doing her a favor.”
