Chapter 423:
Lillian leaned in and whispered to Daniela, “Cedric seemed different today.”
Daniela looked away.
“Huh?”
Lillian leaned closer, lowering her voice so Katrina, who might be eavesdropping, couldn't hear.
“Cedric was in an unusually good mood today. He walked to his room with something in his arms, trying to keep
it hidden. When | asked him about it...”
Daniela fixed her gaze on Lillian.
Lillian imitated Cedric’s cheerful demeanor.
“He just grinned and toldit wasn’t my business. Something special must've happened today; I've never seen
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthim so joyful.”
Before Daniela could respond, Cedric’s door swung open.
“Lillian, don’t disturb Daniela. She didn’t sleep well last night and is quite exhausted. Let her rest.” He then
turned his attention to Daniela, his tone softening.
“I need to discuss a project with you later.”
Daniela acknowledged with a nod.
As Cedric retreated and closed his door, Lillian stared at his door in disbelief.
“Did you catch that? His smile wasn’t just happy; his eyes sparkled with excitement too.”

Just as Daniela was about to respond, Lillian, still puzzled, spoke up.
“And what exactly does Cedric mean? | spoke to you and he claimed | was disturbing your rest, but wasn’t he
bothering you as well by wanting to discuss a project? What is he trying to say?”
Daniela was taken aback by Lillian’s sharp observation. She smiled and ascended the staircase.
Following Daniela’s departure, Lillian leaned towards Ryan and whispered, “Doesn’t Daniela seem off today?”
Ryan, absorbed in his computer, casually dismissed her concern.
“She’s as calm and collected as she’s always been.”
Lillian glanced skeptically between Cedric’s door and the staircase.
“Really?”
In the dining room, Katrina had been observing the exchange. When Daniela saw Lillian frown, a mischievous
thought crossed her mind. She quickly set her food aside and walked over, leaning in to whisper to Lillian, “Did
Daniela and Cedric have a fight?”
Lillian gave her a sharp, cold glance.
“They're perfectly fine.”
“Are you sure?” Katrina smirked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“They usually return together, yet Cedric arrived earlier today alone. Also, he didn’t inquire about Daniela
immediately, which is unusual for him. He just headed straight to his room, seemingly indifferent about whether
Daniela was here.”
Katrina settled beside Lillian.
“So, they must have argued, right? I've always thought Daniela was too distant for Cedric.”
Lillian quickly said, irritated, “And why isn’t Daniela right for him? Do you think someone else would be better?”
Katrina's eyes sparkled with mischief.
