Chapter 1254:
Nikolas was banking on the hope that Cedric still had no idea Daniela led a mercenary force.
Nikolas paused before pressing on. “Daniela may be strong-willed, but at the end of the day, she’s still just one
woman. Asking her to face the McCoy family head-on—it’s too much. | know she’s going there to uncover the
truth about her mother’s death. | won't stop her. That doesn’t interfere with my plans. In fact, I'm even willing to

alliance withif you want, but really, it's a way to keep her safe. Isn't that the smarter move?”
Nikolas genuinely believed his argument was airtight.
But after all that talking, Cedric’s face didn’t flinch—not even a twitch. Nikolas cursed under his breath. Just how

Nikolas was nearing his breaking point. “How does someone so sharp end up so completely blind when it comes

Cedric didn’t bother to reply. He just turned and walked off.

Nikolas stood there, mentally unraveling. He'd armed himself with every possible angle to win Cedric over.
But he hadn't anticipated this—Cedric’s unshakable belief that Daniela would take him along.
Where did he get that unbreakable trust?
Nikolas nearly lost it. He yelled after Cedric’s retreating figure, “Cfindwhen you've changed your mind!”
Then, he muttered to himself, “Who knew the McCoy family could birth a lovesick fool?”
Cedric returned home, his eyes instinctively drifting toward the living room. Daniela wasn’t there, watching TV as
she usually was.
