Chapter 646:
“Daniela...” Nina choked out, tears streaming down her face, her appearance pitiful.
“My mom says I'm useless at Elite Lux and wantsto go back to Harper Group. But | really enjoy working for
you, Daniela. I'd do anything to stay with you.”
Elyse stood at the doorway, intending to escort Nina back to Harper Group. However, she overheard Nina's
pleading, and her expression darkened.
“My mom threatened to freeze my card if | didn’t listen. Please, talk to her for me. | promise I'll follow your
instructions. Just say a few kind words for me. | swear I'll behave.” Nina had an uncanny ability to appear pitiful.
The sight of her tears falling made anyone nearby want to offer comfort.
The door swung open with a sharp crack as Elyse stepped inside. Before Daniela could react, Elyse struck Nina
across the face with a resounding slap.
“What are you even saying? What do you think you can do? All you do is cause trouble for your cousin. Con,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtlet's go.”
With a forced smile, Elyse turned to Daniela and added, “Daniela, Nina's just being childish. Please don’t take it
personally. I'll take her away so you can focus on your work.”
Nina collapsed to the floor, her eyes filled with sorrow. She shoved Elyse’s hand away and fell to her knees at
Daniela’s feet.
“Please, help me! My mom always favors my sister and wantsto step aside for her sake. But | want to stay
by your side and prove myself.”
Nina repeatedly slammed her forehead onto the floor with dull thuds. In no time, blood started to trickle from her
forehead, crimson streaks running down her face.
Yet Nina, once delicate, seemed unfazed. She was resolute, determined to stay at all costs.

Nina understood all too clearly the fate that awaited her. If she didn’t fight for what she desired and fail to win
Cedric’s heart, she would be no better than Joyce. Joyce at least had Katrina to devise plans for her, but she had
no one but herself. In this harsh world, she had to forge her own path, even if it meant stepping on anyone in her
way.
Gripping Daniela’s leg tightly, Nina pleaded, “Please, | beg you. Letstay with you.”
Elyse stood off to the side, her eyes burning with fury. She longed to strangle Nina right then and there, but her
gaze landed on a reporter inside Daniela’s office. All she could do was grit her teeth and force another smile.
“Daniela, this isn’t your issue. Nina's spoiled because of me. I'll take her hso she doesn’t bother you.” Elyse
reached out, attempting to pull Nina away.
But Nina clung desperately to Daniela’s leg, preventing Elyse from moving her.
Daniela let out a soft chuckle.
“It’s alright. Let her stay. Nina listens well and doesn’t causeany trouble.”
Elyse’s face immediately clouded with anger. She had planned for Natalie to make her way into Daniela’s good
graces.
Daniela had already seen through Elyse’s scheme. With a serene smile, she said, “I heard Natalie will be back
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsoon from overseas. Let her join us at Elite Lux as well. We're family, after all, and the more hands, the better.”
Elyse’s smile was strained. She didn’t want Nina stirring up trouble. If Cedric fell for Nina, what would becof
Natalie? But since Daniela had made her decision, Elyse couldn't protest. She forced a laugh, her voice tight.
“Daniela, thank you. That sounds great.”
A short tlater, Elyse excused herself to use the restroom. Upon her return, she saw Nina leaving Daniela’s
office. She shot Nina a cold, unfeeling look, her usual warmth replaced by disdain.
