Chapter 501:
Katrina stared at Joyce in disbelief.
“Didn’t Alexander just hand you fifty million? Are you seriously claiming you're still broke?”
“I've been putting money into a business with Milo.” The mention of business made Katrina uneasy.
“Joyce, you're no business expert. What do you even know about running a company? How could you invest in
that? Don't let yourself be duped!”
“Stop doubting me, Mom.
You always think I'm incapable, but Milo says I'm actually clever. I've just been waiting for the right moment.
Now that it’s here, I'm not going to let it passby.”
Katrina's expression hardened.
“And just how much did you put in?”
She had assumed a small investment, maybe one or two million at most. However, Joyce raised her fingers in

Katrina's chest tightened.
“Four million?”
Joyce burst into laughter.
“Mom, are you serious? What's four million going to do for me? | put in forty-five million. Milo promised a huge
return. | know you never believed in me, always thinking I'm foolish, but just wait. Ill bring in a fortune before

“And don’t forget—eight million is still on you.”
She walked out with a confident stride, leaving Katrina's mind spinning.
In a panic, Katrina dialed the number of a private investigator she knew, requesting him to dig into the company
Joyce had mentioned.
Surveying the empty space around her, Katrina realized how isolated she truly was. Her grip on the phone
tightened as her anxiety intensified.
She couldn't settle, her nerves frayed, until finally, Daniela emerged from upstairs. Trembling, Katrina rushed
towards her, pleading, “Daniela, please.
You have to helpthis time.”
The disappointment from yesterday's failed plans had soured Daniela’s mood, leaving her with little patience for
niceties.
In a voice devoid of warmth, Daniela questioned, “Is it now?”
“It seems Joyce might have been caught up in a scam. I've already reached out for shelp, but they're not as
efficient as your contacts at Elite Lux. Could you possibly get someone on it?” Katrina asked, her voice laced with
urgency.
Daniela proceeded downstairs to have her breakfast, with Katrina trailing right on her heels. Once Daniela had
finished her meal, Katrina, unable to contain her desperation any longer, pleaded, “Please, Daniela, can you help
me? I'm truly desperate here. Joyce has poured all her savings into this venture!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDaniela was already aware of the situation. With a nonchalant air, she picked up her phone, tapped a few keys,
and declared, “The company is a sham. They're planning to vanish abroad with the investments in a matter of
days.”
Katrina felt as if a bolt of lightning had struck her. Her complexion drained of color, and suddenly, she found
herself collapsing to her knees.
“What can we do? Help us, please! That money is all Joyce has!”
