They appear to be assassins from Oiscoll, but they haven't made their move yet. With Hamilton's five sons arriving in Olisvine soon, Cedric's safety could be compromised. I anticipate they might make a move against him shortly." Daniela remained silent for a brief moment before responding, "Understood. I'll take personal responsibility for Cedric's protection."

If he doesn't know, informing him might secure Cedric's inheritance rights as the eldest son and ensure his protection from Hamilton." Daniela's expression was neutral. "Whether or not Cedric acknowledges Hamilton is up to him. My priority is to ensure Cedric feels no pressure in deciding his familial relations. If he chooses to accept his father, so be it; if not, then he won't." She was steadfast in her support for Cedric.
Shadow raised an eyebrow. "I had thought you would not mind his business anymore." Daniela looked up at Shadow.
Shadow let out a chuckle. "Haven't you lost your memories? Maybe it's tto have a new boyfriend." Daniela gave a slight smirk. "Thank you, but no." Shadow left as silently as she had arrived.

Cedric expressed his confusion. “Are you planning to work in my office? You've been extremely busy with Elite Lux lately. If you cnow, we'll need to shuffle a lot of paperwork. Maybe it's best if you wait until this busy period is over, and then I can set up space for you." Daniela responded indifferently, "Either you agree, or we can forget the whole arrangement."
After a moment, Cedric agreed.
"Okay. I'll cover and help set! e vexand е things up. "
