Chapter 395:
Daniela felt a quiet sense of satisfaction as she offered a faint smile.
“Oh, really? | wasn’t planning to get involved, but since you kept pushing, what else did you expect from me?”
Caiden’s complexion turned ashen.
“Do you even care about your family? It’s just a small portion of shares! Joyce won't have anything to do with
managing the company, so it won't affect you. And yet, you still refuse?”
Daniela tilted her head slightly, her voice steady.
“That's correct.”
Caiden was momentarily speechless. He didn’t want to drag the conversation on, but the idea of Joyce getting
married without any support or assets from her family seemed unthinkable. He could already picture Katrina's
fury once they returned home. Caiden was completely out of options—Daniela was his final hope.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNever in his life had he imagined that, after all these years, it would cdown to her.
Slowly, his expression began to soften.
“Daniela, whether you admit it or not, I'm still your father.”
Daniela’s lips curled into a mocking smile.
“Oh, is that supposed to guilt-trip me? Letremind you—I lost my mother when | was five, and at the same
time, | may as well have lost a father. | feel nothing for you.”
Caiden gave a tired nod.

“What about your mother, then? What about the love between your mother and me? How do you justify ignoring
that?”
Cedric, attuned to Daniela’s slightest changes, noticed a subtle shift in her demeanor. He turned to look at her.
She still seemed calm on the surface, but something in her eyes struck him—a deep, almost undetectable hatred
that sent a chill through him.
“Daniela, | wouldn't bring this up if | weren't truly at the end of my rope today,” Caiden started, his tone carrying
an unusual weight of sincerity.
“I know you've always heldresponsible, believingto be cold and heartless, but | want you to know—I
genuinely loved your mother. She had many suitors, but she chosebecause | treated her with care and
respect. When her company was gearing up to go public, she pushed herself relentlessly, and | was there,
staying up with her night after night. | didn’t let the servants take over the household chores—not because they
couldn't, but because I didn’t trust them to do it right. When she was pregnant with you, | read every book on
prenatal care. By the tyou were born prematurely, even the nurses admitted | was more knowledgeable than
they were.
You were both in fragile health, and it waswho nursed you both back to strength, step by step. | gave it
everything | had.”
Caiden’s voice trembled with emotion as tears streamed freely down his face.
Daniela remained seated, her expression a perfect mask, hiding any trace of her thoughts.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCaiden continued, “From the tyou were one until five, | was the one who made sure the water you drank at
school was just right. When your mother’s skin becsensitive with the changing seasons, | was the one who
cared for it. And every tshe chlate from those social events, | was always there at the door, waiting
for her, day in and day out. Daniela, I've worked hard, truly hard.”
Katrina listened, her face showing a mix of emotions. She’d never been on the receiving end of such intense
attention. Daniela, however, remained stone-faced. Slowly, she rose from her seat and told her secretary,
“Please show them out.” Without another word, she turned on her heel and made her way to the door.
Caiden quickly stood up, knowing these words might not always get the result he hoped for.
