Chapter 291:
Joyce stood, fury flashing in her eyes as she glared at Daniela.
“You're just here to make our lives hell, aren't you?”
Daniela didn’t flinch. She gave a simple nod.
“Yes. Isn't that clear? I'd say you're not exactly known for your intellect if you have to ask.”
Joyce seethed at Daniela’s cold attitude.
“How did you turn into this, Daniela? Just because you have money doesn’t give you the right to do whatever
you please!”
Daniela let out a dry laugh, her fingers still tapping at her game.
“Maybe you should work your way up to my level before you start lecturingabout what's possible or not. But

Daniela tilted her head, pretending to sympathize.
“Even if you did marry Alexander, | highly doubt you'd ever really control his family’s fortune.”
Joyce's anger flared. But, unfortunately, Daniela’s words hit home. She had never been quick on her feet. The
only tshe’d ever gotten the upper hand over Daniela was when Alexander left Daniela for her. Now that it
was obvious Daniela had no interest in Alexander anymore, Joyce had no way to claim another victory.
Her fury made her voice shake, but it was clear she couldn’t land a hit on Daniela. She couldn't even get close to
Daniela, with Cedric standing guard near her, relaxed yet protective, like a warning to anyone who thought to
approach.
Joyce balled her fists, her voice rising in a sharp, high-pitched tone.

“Just wait! The police are on their way!” she yelled, her finger stabbing the air, aimed at Daniela.
At the mention of the police, Daniela paused her game. She raised her eyes slowly, her calm gaze settling on the
finger Joyce had pointed at her.
Joyce's confident stance faltered the moment Daniela’s piercing gaze fixed on the finger she had raised. Daniela
gave a faint, knowing smirk before lowering her head, resuming her game.
When the police finally arrived, representatives from both Phillips Group and Elite Lux had already shown up.
Joyce, lacking the wit to keep up, found herself tangled in the barrage of legal arguments. Meanwhile, Daniela’s
words were clear and precise.
“It was an unfortunate accident. I'm more than willing to make amends and settle this fairly.”
Joyce stood stunned, watching Daniela effortlessly play the spity gKatrina often used. Daniela told the
police, “My stepmother has always harbored resentment towards me. After my mother passed, she convinced
my father to sever our relationship. She married him just days after my mother’s death. Now that my father is
critically ill, she’s barredfrom visiting him. Naturally, | becemotional...”

Still reeling, Joyce watched as Daniela transferred $20,000 into the hospital account. Then, with a sweet smile,
Daniela addressed Katrina, who was pale from the pain of her fractured finger.
“This money is for you. Get smedicine and take better care of that brain of yours.”
Katrina tried to respond, but before she could utter a word, Daniela’s voice grew colder.
