Chapter 1471: A sleek car arrived, and Cedric stepped out wearing a sharp tailored suit.
Hamilton's smile vanished the moment he saw Cedric had calone.
He glanced angrily at Kohen.
Kohen protested, "I did tell him you invited Daniela." He felt unfairly blamed.

He loosened his jacket and sat, saying, "Cut to the chase. Why do you keep coming after my wife?" Cedric appeared calm, ordering a black coffee immediately upon arrival.
Hamilton observed Cedric's calm presence, admiration shining in his eyes. Such a remarkable young man was truly a perfect fit for the McCoy family.
From his face to his posture and physique, he exuded undeniable elegance.
Wherever he walked, he radiated the aura of a refined young gentleman.
Hamilton nodded approvingly, impressed by Cedric's bearing and presence. He told himself that soon he'd contact the royal family of Loglil. A man like Cedric—he wasn't just fit to wed a princess; he could be a king. The more Hamilton considered it, the more delighted he felt. His eyes softened gradually as he looked at Cedric. "What would you prefer to eat?" Kohen had never heard such softness in Hamilton's voice; it was like watching a storm hush itself into a breeze. His eyes flicked to the side, curiosity sparked, just as Hamilton pushed the menu forward.
"Take a look. I don't know what you like. You didn't get to grow up by my side. I'll make it up to you." Cedric sipped his coffee with detached calm, casually brushing off a woman who tried to ask for his number. He raised his eyes, ice pooling in his stare as he met Hamilton's gaze.
"This isn't a family gathering for me." Hamilton parted his lips to respond.
Cedric cut him off. “You'd better be grateful I'm talking to you now. Next time, you might not have the luxury of keeping your cool." The atmosphere turned dense, as if even the air had stopped to listen.
Kohen sat frozen, caught off guard by the sharp turn of events.
No one besides Cedric had ever dared to throw such bold words at Hamilton. But Hamilton merely chuckled, unruffled, as if insult had turned into amusement.
He cast Cedric a look filled with smug pride, as if silently declaring, "That's my blood." Kohen could only sit there, utterly at a loss for words.
That expression was foreign on Hamilton's face-he'd never worn it for any of their brothers, not even for Nikolas!
"Young blood runs hot, and pride burns bright. I get that,” Hamilton said with a placid smile. "But youn should know when to rein it in. Once I you officially take the reins of the McCoy empire, prove yourself with skill-not by using your sharp mind to squeeze the family business right now. That's not the smartest move."
