Chapter 209
Chapter 209:
“Alexander, you have to grab this chance!” His voice shook with a mix of excitement and nerves.
He hadn't expected Daniela to be so wealthy, let alone imagined another shot at securing the project.
To top it off, the South and East Districts had a larger building area than the North, which meant they promised
even bigger profits.
“Alexander, you have to act fast and tell Daniela you want the building rights for those plots. Securing them will
skyrocket Bennett Group's financials for the next five years. Don’t let Cedric swoop in and snatch them away
from you!” Richard's impassioned plea seemed to light a spark in Keith's thoughts.
“Wait, Cedric!” Keith exclaimed with a booming laugh, pointing at Alexander's phone.
“That handwriting—it’s Cedric’s!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtKeith slapped Alexander's thigh enthusiastically.
“Remember when we visited that celebrity exhibition in the city? There was a whole section about Cedric,
showing his rise to fame, and even a childhood notebook where he practiced writing.
You pointed out something then—that Cedric had this quirky habit of adding a dot in the bottom right corner of
the last letter on every page.”
Keith gestured towards the dot in the corner.
“See? The handwriting matches perfectly, and so does that little dot! It’s unmistakable, right?”

When Keith looked up, his laughter abruptly faded. Both Richard and Alexander were staring at him with
expressions far too serious for the moment.
“What's going on?” Keith asked, his confusion evident as he scratched his head.
“Why are you so interested in Cedric’s handwriting? What's the big deal?”
The color drained from Richard's face, which had been flushed with excitement just moments ago.
Under the stark glare of the lights, his complexion now resembled a ghostly shade of white.
Keith was just about to crack a joke to ease the tension when Richard suddenly leaned back, collapsing to the
floor with a loud thud.
The room instantly descended into chaos. When the paramedics arrived, Alexander didn’t hesitate to climb into
the ambulance with them.
As the doors shut, he locked eyes with Keith and said in a chillingly firm tone, “This stays between us. Don’t say
a word to anyone!”
Richard jolted awake in the hospital bed, his breathing uneven as he clutched Alexander's hand tightly.
“Alexander, you must not breathe a word about Cedric being that boy. If you do, you can kiss any chance of
seeing a penny from Daniela goodbye for the rest of your life.” He glanced at the clock on the wall—it was well
past midnight.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLetting out a strained sigh, he continued, “Go home. Put all your energy into winning Daniela over. I'm fine here.
All | want is for you to win Daniela back.”
Despite Alexander's hesitation, Richard insisted, urging him to leave and focus on the bigger picture.
As he drove aimlessly, Alexander eventually found himself parked at the Elite Lux building.
He stepped out of the car, his gaze instinctively drawn to a specific floor of the towering structure. Without a
word, he lit a cigarette, letting the hours slip by as he smoked in silence under the cover of night.
