Chapter 353:
On his phone, Cedric quickly typed out a curt reply.
“Apologies, sent by mistake.”
The response from Daniela calmost instantly.
“Cto my room.”
Cedric stared at the message, his jaw tightening.
Cedric shot Caiden a cold, piercing glare.
“Look what you gotinto!”

Caiden shrank back instinctively, his frustration and grievance palpable.
As Caiden trudged upstairs, his gaze caught Cedric knocking hesitantly on Daniela’s door. Cedric looked
uncharacteristically subdued, as though unsure of his place.
It was a stark contrast to the authoritative warning he had delivered downstairs moments earlier.
Without lingering, Caiden retreated to his room, his mind swirling with unease.
Cedric remained at Daniela’s door, his expression softening into an unconvincing smile.
“What's up?”
Daniela, fresh from a shower, exuded an effortless allure. Her long, damp curls framed her face, cascading over
her shoulders with natural elegance. Draped in pristine white loungewear, she looked both ethereal and serene,
as though she belonged in a dream.
She was seated cross-legged on the plush carpet, her fingers deftly working on a half-completed puzzle. With a
casual gesture, she pointed to the space opposite her.

“Have a seat.” Despite her gentle demeanor, Cedric couldn't shake the feeling that her sharp gaze saw straight
through him, peeling back layers he hadn’t meant to expose.
He remained rooted to the spot.
“It’s late. | won't intrude. Is there something you need?”
Daniela didn’t reply immediately. She lowered her gaze, her fingers picking up a stray puzzle piece from the
floor. With practiced ease, she slid it into its rightful place.
“Why did you transfer money to me?”
“I told you, it was just a mistake.” Daniela didn’t reply immediately.

The longer the quiet lingered, the more Cedric’s unease grew. His guilt churned, swelling into something he
could no longer suppress.
“Really?” Daniela finally asked, her voice cool and detached.
Her eyes lifted slowly, and she glanced at him.
“Y-Yes!”
“In the middle of the night, you transferred three hundred million. Can | ask why?” Daniela picked up another
puzzle piece and fitted it effortlessly into the growing picture.
Cedric felt the sweat trickling down his back. His earlier shower now seemed utterly pointless.
He couldn’t explain it, but he had a sinking suspicion that Daniela already knew the truth.
Her calm exterior didn’t waver. When she finally glanced up again, her expression was gentle, devoid of
judgment, and yet it carried a weight Cedric couldn't ignore.
