PopularNovelChapter 723:
Cedric, still uneasy, moved closer to Daniela, his gaze filled with concern. Sindividuals, no matter how
turbulent their emotions, possessed a calmness that seemed untouched by the storm inside.
Daniela was such a person. The more furious she felt, the more composed she appeared.
Without a flicker of emotion, Cedric exclaimed, “Shut up!”
Caiden was insignificant to Cedric, but he was deeply concerned about Daniela. Daniela’s past struggles with
depression lingered in Cedric’s mind. If Caiden’s words pushed her too far, Cedric wouldn't wait for her to act. He
would take matters into his own hands and end Caiden himself.
Deciding to help her rest, Cedric escorted Daniela upstairs for a nap.

When Cedric finally awoke, the night had fallen. His hand reached for the space beside him, but it was cold.
The absence of Daniela’s warmth sent a ripple of unease through him. His heart pounded as panic set in. With
urgency, he threw off the covers and rushed downstairs.
The first floor, typically aglow with light, was now shrouded in unsettling darkness.
As Cedric descended, the moonlight outside illuminated a tense scene: Daniela sat rigidly on the sofa, staring at
Caiden, who was bound to a chair.
Just as Cedric prepared to move forward, Lillian and Ryan stepped into his path and raised their hands to halt
him.
“Daniela has her own way of handling things.
You promised her that, didn’t you?”

The spacious villa was hauntingly silent.
The silence was broken only by Caiden’s frantic shout.
“Daniela, I'm your father! Have you completely lost your mind?”
He fought against the ropes, but they tightened with every movement he made. Daniela, dressed entirely in
black, sat across from him on the sofa, her face cold and emotionless.
“Daniela, | haven't done anything lately. Why are you doing this? You know murder is a crime.
You're the CEO of Elite Lux now, with power and influence. It's not worth risking jail over me.”

Daniela stayed quiet, gripping a butcher's knife, her eyes burning with deadly intent.
“Cedric!” Caiden’s heart raced with panic. He gasped and shouted in a trembling voice, “Cedric! I'm your father-
in-law. My life matters to you too. Get down here, quick!”
Cedric tried to head downstairs, but Ryan and Lillian blocked his path.
In the dark, Daniela smirked. The room was shrouded in shadows, with only the cool moonlight casting a ghostly,
silvery glow on the floor, radiating an unsettling chill.
“I'll ask the questions, and you'll answer,” Daniela said coldly, standing up with the knife in hand, her piercing
gaze bearing down on Caiden.
“I only want the truth. If you lie, don’t blme for being merciless.”
The moon was hidden by clouds, leaving Daniela in complete darkness. Her voice was cold and emotionless, like
a ghost emerging from the shadows.
Caiden’s heart pounded with fear.
