Chapter 484:
“Just tellhow much, and I'll sell them to you.”
Katrina sprang to her feet, her face flushed with anger, and slapped Joyce hard.
“Have you lost your mind?”
“Yes, I'm crazy!” Joyce shouted back.
“I need Milo in my life—he makesfeel alive, like a real woman! I'll do whatever it takes to keep him! So,
either you givethe money, or I'm selling the shares. The choice is yours!” After her outburst, Joyce turned
her attention to Daniela, waiting for a response.
Daniela realized this was the moment she had been anticipating. Smiling faintly, she asked, “Joyce, have you
forgotten? Those shares were a gift from me.”
Joyce frowned, confused.

Johan, seated quietly nearby, watched as Daniela carefully maneuvered toward her desired outcome.
“The shares | gave you can’t be sold,” Daniela declared matter-of-factly.
Panic flashed across Joyce's face.
“Why not?” she demanded.
Daniela explained, “Because they cwith conditions. Imagine if you sold them to someone who could use
them against me. | can’t afford to leave myself vulnerable.”
Joyce stood frozen, unable to process what she had just heard.

Daniela added, “And about the dividends...”
Katrina's face went pale. She feared what Daniela would say next.
Daniela went on, “Your mother toldnot to distribute dividends to you. Since money shouldn't just sit idle, |
reinvested it into the company’s next research project. There won't be dividends for the next ten years.”
Katrina's jaw dropped in disbelief at Daniela’s revelation. Snapping back to reality, she exclaimed, “I only told
you to withhold dividends temporarily, not to sink them into investments!”
“You can’t be serious. This is company money. The funds have to be utilized, so as the majority shareholder, |
reinvested them into research. It’s a logical decision based on what you told me. Are you now trying to
backtrack?”
Her words hit Katrina like a dagger.
Johan watched in amazement from the sidelines.
Was Daniela truly unaware of psychology?
How could someone so seemingly unaware be so skillful at psychological manipulation?
Joyce, upon hearing everything, was on the verge of breaking down. She confronted Katrina, crying out, “Mom!
Why would you do that? Ten years with no dividends! You did it deliberately, didn’t you? If | don’t do what you
want, you make my life a nightmare!” Joyce beat her chest with a loud thud.
“I'm your daughter!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhy are you doing this to me? Why?”
Her voice cracked as she screamed, “Why?”
Katrina moved to explain, but Joyce shoved her away violently, “You've never treatedlike your daughter.
You've only seenas your puppet.
You want to control me, to manipulatefor your entire life. If | don’t follow your orders, you punishwithout
mercy.
You're not my mother, not really. | can’t stand it anymore. | never want to be under your control again!”
Katrina shook her head in desperation.
