TimeNovelChapter 1442: Daniela and Cedric glanced up, noticing the two had already left.
Outside the villa, Damon confronted Kohen. "This was deliberate, right? Using the project as bait to drag Daniela to the high-rise!" Damon narrowed his eyes, aware Daniela wasn't truly afraid of heights but annoyed Kohen would misuse her trust for such a petty ploy.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe villa featured expansive floor-to-ceiling windows. At night, people outside couldn't see in, but those inside had a clear view out. The three at the table turned to watch the unfolding scene as if it were a live show.
Damon clenched his jaw. "You're despicable!" Kohen shot back, “I'm doing this for the family! Unlike you, who's grown used to sitting idle." "That's rubbish!" Damon snapped back. "You're only exploiting Nikolas' absence, hoping to claim the inheritance. Mark my words-your devious plans will never succeed!" Kohen sneered, "Oh really? But your idol has already agreed to inspect the project withtomorrow. If she's scared to climb, it proves she truly fears heights. If she goes up, then it means you lied to Father!" Kohen's tone sharpened as he faced Damon. "You aided an outsider in fooling Father. You know what that means! But if Daniela's acrophobia is real, then we have uncovered her weakness, and you can take credit for it." Damon gritted his teeth. "You're revolting!" "You're from the McCoy family," Kohen snapped. “Don't let Daniela's petty favors fool you. She handed you a failing casino, and now you're acting like a sycophant. How pathetic!" Cedric and Daniela stood inside, watching Damon's face flush with rage, powerless to stop Kohen. Carol couldn't hold back, pleading, "Daniela, say something! Damon's being bullied." Daniela glanced at Carol. "If you're so bothered, why don't you step in? He's your buddy, not mine." Carol admitted, "I'm not good at arguing. If I jump in, we'll both be humiliated. That's even worse." Kohen, seasoned in the McCoy family politics, wielded his words like weapons. Carol had tried to argue but never got the upper hand. She shot a helpless look at Daniela.
Daniela set down her fork and stepped toward the villa door.
Warm light poured out from inside, illuminating the ground outside. Daniela peered out, seeing Kohen's smug grin and Damon's furious, reddened eyes trembling with rage. Spotting Daniela, Damon swallowed hard, fighting back tears he refused to show.
Daniela leaned on the doorframe, her gaze steady. "What were you two discussing?" Kohen opened his mouth to answer.
But Daniela turned to Damon instead.
"I'm asking you. Why are you quiet?”
Damon sniffed, his voice firm.
"Nothing." The content is on The q om novelenglish.net!
Daniela faced Kohen sharply.
"There's no bullying in my home. You can either cinsand and eat or get out. Got it?" She turned her back on him without another word.
