Chapter 625:
“You've always been there for Joyce, far more than Caiden ever was for me. It’s only fair that Joyce supports
you.”
Katrina found no fault in that reasoning and remained silent. Lillian then took the disheartened Katrina to change
into the evening attire for the event.
As they prepared to depart, Katrina caught sight of Nina by the doorway. Her reaction was immediate—her pupils
dilated, her complexion paled, and a shiver ran through her. Instinctively, she sidestepped and hurried out of
Daniela’s office. Nina, lingering at the door, reflected on her observations. Initially, she had underestimated
Daniela, attributing her success to mere luck. However, witnessing Daniela command a room during meetings
had changed her perspective.
Daniela’s dominance and the respect she commanded were undeniable. Today, as she watched Daniela handle
Katrina with such deft authority and strategic conversation, Nina was convinced of Daniela’s complexity.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtQuietly, Nina bowed her head and texted Elyse:
“Daniela will be at the banquet tonight, wrapping up around eleven. I'll keep Cedric busy. Handle Daniela on your
end!”
After sending the text, Nina shifted her focus back to Lillian. Lillian appeared experienced in handling difficult
situations. Nina knew she had to find a way to prevent Lillian from attending the banquet, isolating Daniela for
the evening.
After a brief pause, Nina swung open the door to Daniela’s office, wearing a bright smile and adopting an overly
sweet tone.
“Daniela, it seems like I'm not on your radar at all.”
“Why?” Daniela responded with a light chuckle.
gVInov[}fs.cem is a world of wonder
“Are you attending the banquet tonight? You haven't considered invitingto join you for snetworking. Are
you only taking Lillian? We are family, after all.”
Daniela arched an eyebrow.
“Is that so?”
“Yes, we are all part of the Dury family. We should stick together and lift each other up. Please, Daniela, I'd love
to go to the banquet with you tonight. Leave Lillian behind.”
Daniela’s smile was gentle, her voice teasing.
“You're quite demanding, aren't you? Why can’t Lillian come?”
Nina made a face, resembling a sulking child.
“I just had a small argument with Lillian. | need sspace. Daniela, please, just take me.”
Daniela nodded.
“Okay.”
Nina's face lit up with delight. She quickly glanced at Cedric, who was preoccupied with his phone, and her heart
skipped with excitement.
“Daniela, may | stop by Elite Lux’s high-end designer section to pick a dress?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDaniela gave her permission with a nod.
“Of course, go pick something nice.”
Nina's eyes sparkled.
“Thanks so much, Daniela!”
As Nina exited the office, she strutted confidently, assured by her victory. Tonight, she believed, Cedric would be
completely captivated by her.
Lillian escorted Katrina to Elite Lux’s exclusive wardrobe to pick out an outfit. Amidst the splendid array of
garments, Katrina selected a particularly luxurious gown.
