Chapter 456
Chapter 456:
With fists still clenched, Joyce inhaled deeply and looked towards where Alexander had gone.
“Mom, | want to try again.”
Katrina opened her mouth to respond, but Joyce cut her off.
“I've decided. Don’t try to change my mind.”
Katrina sighed, resigned.
“Very well, but one day you'll see. When a man really cares, he'll go to any length for you, even risking his life.
That's true love. But when he doesn’t like you, he won't even spare you a single glance.”
Joyce understood this.
Yet, the dissatisfaction within her lingered.
In the courtyard, Daniela noticed two figures drawing near. She thought it was Lillian and Ryan. A bright smile

Daniela’s beauty was renowned, yet her smile was rarely witnessed.
But as soon as she realized who they were, her smile disappeared, replaced by a polite expression.
She rose, nodded at the two, and began to walk away.
“Ms. Harper,” one of them called out.
Turning with a puzzled look, Daniela responded, “Yes?”

“We don’t know each other, but we're familiar with your reputation. Rumors say you're unapproachable, but
seeing how you've socialized today, you seem quite friendly. We were hoping we might becfriends.”
Daniela acknowledged with a subtle smile.
“The rumors hold struth.”
Both men appeared puzzled.
“What?”
“I do tend to keep my distance,” Daniela explained.
“While friendship might be too much, perhaps we could consider a business partnership. Please excuse me; |
must attend to other matters.” With these words, Daniela left.
The men exhaled deeply in disappointment.
Even without Cedric, approaching Daniela seemed an impossible task.
Alexander arrived in the courtyard to find it empty.
Daniela was nowhere to be seen.
His dreams of helping her hadn’t cto fruition.
Amidst the silence, his quickened pulse now seemed out of place.
Inside, Cedric was at the piano, his fingers dancing across the keys, while Daniela stood by, her smile subtle yet
captivating.
Entering the hall, Lillian caught Daniela’s attentive gaze and followed it to Cedric.
“Daniela, hasn't Cedric been a bit too showy lately?” Lillian asked.

Noticing Daniela’s amused expression, Lillian asked further, “You know he has. The last tCedric played the
piano was when you cback from abroad. At a function after his big deal, he declined to play.
Yet today, here he is, performing with such flair. Doesn't that strike you as strange?”
Trying to discern Lillian’s point, Daniela sighed.
