Chapter 349:
Katrina's frustration boiled over. She glanced toward Alexander's room, the door firmly closed since he had
returned home.
An uneasy thought crept into her mind. Ever since Alexander had moved in, he seemed to pay little attention to
Joyce.
Yet, whenever Daniela was in the living room, Alexander suddenly made himself present.
Was he here for Joyce, or was it for Daniela?
Katrina's fists clenched tightly, her nails pressing into her palms.
Her eyes narrowed, dark with determination.
No one would stand in the way of her daughter's happiness.
Caiden and Katrina spent the entire day glued to their phones, eagerly awaiting the three hundred million Cedric
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthad promised to appear in their account.
They called the bank repeatedly, hounding them for updates on the transfer.
They stared at their phones, obsessively refreshing the balance page, doing nothing all day but waiting for that
transfer notification.
Across the room, Daniela watched them with a smile that was cold and indifferent, as if she found their behavior
amusing.
As night fell and the money still hadn't cthrough, Katrina's frustration reached its breaking point. Unable to
hold back any longer, she stormed to the door, determined to confront Cedric as he returned home.
“Cedric, you're a man of great wealth and influence, yet | never thought you'd go back on your word.”

Cedric had just returned from a meeting. His brow furrowed at the sight of her, and his gaze darkened with
irritation.
Beneath his calm exterior, fury simmered, and he spoke coldly, “Are you out of your damn mind?”
The money had already been transferred from Cedric’s personal account; there was no reason it shouldn't have
arrived. Earlier that day, the bank had assured him the transaction would be completed by morning, and Cedric
had trusted their word.
Now, with another meeting looming in just thirty minutes, he was running out of time—and patience. The Harper
family’s nonsense was the last thing he wanted to deal with. Just seeing them made his fists clench in
frustration.
He brushed past Katrina and made his way inside.
Katrina instinctively stepped forward to block him once more, but then she saw Daniela sitting in the living room,
playing games, and froze in her tracks.
Katrina realized that Cedric’s forced politeness towards them was driven solely by his relationship with Daniela.
If they pushed him too far and angered him, they might not get a penny.
To Katrina and Caiden, it didn’t matter who had been there for Daniela in her childhood.
What mattered now wasn’t the past. What mattered was getting the money into their account to secure their

Caiden hurried after Cedric up the stairs and into his room. Once inside, he forced a grin and handed Cedric his
phone, displaying his bank account details.
“I really didn’t want to trouble you, but the money hasn't cthrough yet.”
Cedric opened his mouth to speak when a knock echoed at the door. Daniela leaned casually against the
doorframe, her cool eyes locking with Cedric’s.
