Chapter 406
Chapter 406:
“A father kneeling before his daughter? That's disgusting. If | had a dad like this, I'd rather not live. Poor
Daniela!”
“Brylee and Daniela really got the worst of it, getting stuck with someone as shameless as Caiden. What a
tragedy.”
“How is someone like Caiden still walking around? People like him shouldn't even be a thing.”
“Caiden’s lack of shis honestly unbelievable. And | heard Joyce's wedding today was just a schto take
advantage of others using Daniela’s name. What a revolting family.”
The words replayed in his mind like an unrelenting echo.
Standing there, Caiden felt as though an invisible crowd surrounded him. He could almost feel their fingers
poking at his forehead, pointing, and mocking him with laughter. His fists tightened so hard that his nails dug

He wasn’t wrong! He couldn’t be wrong!
People would do anything for money. That was the reality of the world. These people were just envious that he
had Daniela as his daughter.
But was she even still his daughter?
Caiden recalled the official statement Daniela had posted earlier on the Elite Lux website.
"| hereby sever all ties with Caiden, Katrina, and Joyce. As Caiden desired, | have given him 5% of the shares in
my robotics company. | hope they will stop exploiting my name. As for Joyce's wedding, | never promised to
attend. If they continue to claim I'm still part of them, | will take legal action to protect myself.”
Below that, an additional note read, “One more thing. I'd like to ask Caiden a question.

You knelt in my office, yet now you act as if that never happened? Have sdignity, will you? Also, I've
attached a video for everyone to enjoy. Consider it my wedding gift to the Bennett family.”
Everything was laid bare for the world to witness.
Daniela’s words—"Don’t mess with me”—burned in his mind. At that time, he had dismissed them, thinking they
were just an empty threat. But now, he fully grasped the depth of her warning and the power behind it.
The atmosphere thickened with tension, becoming almost suffocating.
The wedding host peered around the sparsely populated hall, paused uncertainly, and then whispered
tentatively, “Should we go on with the ceremony?”
Richard reached his limit. Rising abruptly, he snatched his coat and bolted out, leaving a heavy silence in his
wake.
Alexander surveyed the few stricken faces of the Harper family with a cold, dismissive stare. With a scornful
chuckle, he declared, “Well, if it comes to it, we'll just sign the divorce papers right after the ceremony.”
He didn’t wait for their response before turning on his heel and walking away.
Joyce felt a pang of despair as she watched Alexander's back receding. Overcwith urgency, she dashed
after him. In the echoing expanse of the banquet hall, only Caiden and Katrina were left standing.

“Would you like to settle this with cash or a card? Also, please note the wine spill earlier has ruined a carpet
valued at ten-thousand dollars, which we've added to your total bill. The charge for today’s event amounts to
four million dollars. Thank you.”
The amount struck Caiden like a punch he never saw coming.
