Chapter 369:
A cunning glint sparked in Caiden’s eyes as he broached an offer.
“Cedric, I'm aware of the ongoing issues you have with Daniela. How about reconsidering my earlier proposal?
The secret to gaining her favor, now just for fifty million—a real steal. What do you say?”
Cedric wrestled with a palpable temptation.
Caiden, observing Cedric’s hesitance, pushed confidently.
“Well? At fifty million, it’s a steal. Don’t want it? I'll find someone who does.”
Cedric, pointing upwards, made it clear.
“My finances are under Daniela’s control. She calls the shots on how it’s spent, not me.” Caiden’s expression
darkened as he silently berated Cedric’s lack of backbone and his susceptibility to Daniela’s influence.
As Cedric turned to leave, he paused briefly, his tone even and measured.

You know her reach. If she discovers your scheming, she won't hesitate to gain full control of Harper Group, and
that will be the end for you.”
Caiden was a bundle of frustration and helplessness.
Katrina, studying Caiden’s tense profile, ventured cautiously, “Is there truly no way to salvage the situation with
Daniela?” A shadow of a thought flickered across Caiden’s eyes as they unintentionally caught Joyce's figure
nearby.
Katrina's heart momentarily skipped a beat.

Caiden suddenly said, “It's high tyou considered marriage, Joyce. We've given you enough tto bounce
back after your childbirth.
You should be back on your feet by now.”
Katrina stared at Caiden, her expression a mix of shock and confusion.
“What are you implying?”
“I mean precisely what | articulated,” Caiden countered.
“Haven't you always harbored hopes of Joyce tying the knot with Alexander? Well, perhaps now's the moment to
make it happen.”
Indeed, Katrina had harbored such hopes for Joyce to marry Alexander. But not under these circumstances. Not
when the Harper family coffers were echoing emptiness.
With their business teetering on the brink, they had no leverage to engage the Bennett family seriously.
Moreover, Joyce's circumstances, having a child out of wedlock, had already marred her standing.
Katrina's original blueprint had been to endow Joyce with the entirety of Harper Group. Now, with the group
floundering, it was more of a liability than a legacy. Wouldn't this only serve to diminish her stature in the eyes of
the Bennett family even further?
Richard was a man known for his opportunism, and Joyce, marrying without a dowry or a robust backing, would
undoubtedly endure significant strife.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKatrina's gaze upon Caiden was cold, as if she was truly seeing the man he had become.
A man who could patiently navigate the shadows under a formidable woman like Brylee for years and eventually
climb to the pinnacle was inherently cutthroat. Naturally, in times of stability, his kindness flourished, but when
the seas turned rough, his true colors bled through.
Katrina was still strategizing.
