EuropeNovelChapter 626:
The moment she wore the dress, she felt unstoppable. From the top floor of Elite Lux, Katrina gazed down at the
city below, overwhelmed by a sense of supremacy.
Katrina savored this feeling, vowing silently to always live in luxury.
By 6 P.M., Katrina was riding in Daniela’s car, gliding smoothly along the streets. Nina occupied the front seat,
while Katrina and Daniela were in the back.
Turning her head, Katrina looked at Daniela, whose poise and confidence were palpable against the backdrop of
shifting city lights, making her seem in complete control of her fate.
“Why are you helping me?” Katrina asked in confusion. Daniela, previously resting with her eyes shut, opened
them slowly.
In the car's confined space, her low chuckle resonated, reigniting Katrina's unease.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Why are you laughing?”
Daniela remained silent, and shortly after, the car arrived at the event venue.
Katrina quickly spotted someone she knew and walked over to engage them in conversation. Nina, still waiting
for Cedric to arrive, struck up a casual conversation with Daniela.
“Why do you bother helping Katrina?”
Sipping her drink, Daniela answered, “She's still my stepmother, despite everything. | can’t let her face utter
humiliation. We are family, after all. Whatever her past actions, | expect her to caround to my side
eventually.”
As she spoke, Daniela’s gaze shifted back to Nina, who appeared contemplative.
With a mimicked innocence, Daniela continued, “In her old age, when she can no longer walk, who else will she
depend on but me? Katrina is no fool; she understands the stakes. It's just that she’s not ready to shift her
loyalty yet. I'm patient. | know she’ll confess whatever | need to hear within a few days.”
Nina's frown deepened at Daniela’s confidence.
“You're certain of this?”
Daniela responded with a serene smile, her face illuminated softly by the ambient lighting, giving her an almost
otherworldly appearance.
Nina couldn't help but admire Daniela’s composed demeanor, even as she felt a pang of jealousy for her
seemingly effortless grace. Distracted by her thoughts, Nina barely caught Daniela’s next words.
“Katrina has been my stepmother for years. | understand her well. It's no more challenging than negotiating in
the boardroom.”
After making this comparison, Daniela fixed her gaze on Nina, who looked visibly unsettled and excused herself
to make a phone call.
Daniela continued to engage politely with the guests, accepting a glass of wine with a reserved smile.
In the garden, Nina was on the phone.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Did Daniela say this herself?” asked the person on the other end of the line.
Nina relayed the conversation.
“Daniela seems convinced Katrina will confess soon.”
The response from the other end of the phone was a prolonged silence, followed by a chilly declaration.
“Understood. If that's the case, we no longer need to wait.”
Nina replied, “Yes. Just make sure it’s handled cleanly.”
“Don’t worry.”
