Chapter 267:
The guard greeted her with respect.
Lillian’s gaze sharpened upon seeing the visibly agitated Caiden and Katrina waiting outside.
“They claim they’re Ms. Harper's parents,” the guard informed her.
Lillian snorted derisively, her arms crossed as she faced Caiden.
“Oh, so now you're her parents? Didn’t you cut ties with her? What, you suddenly forgot your own bullshit?”
Caiden’s face darkened with fury.
“Quit screwing around. Bring Daniela here before | lose my patience.”
Unmoved, Lillian yawned, signaling her disinterest.
“She's resting. If you have something important, I'm here to listen.”
Caiden spat, “Talking to you is pointless! You don’t call the shots! Drag Daniela’s ass down here immediately!”

one you're dealing with.”
Beside him, Katrina gave Caiden a gentle push and murmured, “Just tell her. She's working for Daniela, isn’t
she?”
Caiden cast a quick glance at Katrina before refocusing on Lillian.

“Well?” Katrina, previously jittery, now exuded a calm demeanor as she observed Caiden’s escalating frustration.
She offered Lillian a sly smile and queried, “Can you make that decision, or should we have Daniela cdown
here? Of course, if you're not inclined to help us, we're more than willing to purchase it. It would be interesting to
see if Daniela still values family ties or if she’s lost touch with her origins.”
Lillian’s gaze sharpened, her mind racing. She recognized that meddling in Daniela’s familial conflicts was
beyond her role. The thought of mishandling the delicate matter and complicating things for Daniela filled her
with dread.
Yet, the urge to wipe that smug expression off Katrina's face was almost overwhelming.
With no other recourse, Lillian texted Daniela, receiving no immediate response. After a tense pause, she dialed
Daniela’s number. The phone barely completed one ring before Daniela picked up.
Katrina perched on her tiptoes, straining to catch a snippet of Daniela’s conversation, but her words remained
elusive. Nearby, Caiden paced, a mask of impatience and concern etched across his face.
Whirling around, Katrina faced the security guard and flashed a knowing smirk.
“See? | was right. We're still her family.
Your earlier display of authority was quite over the top, don’t you think? To an outsider, it might even appear as
though you owned the place!”
The guard's jaw tightened as he fought to keep his composure under her taunts.
Unperturbed, Katrina's sneer deepened.

uniform. Meanwhile, we're cut from a different cloth, born to bask in the lap of luxury.”
Caiden echoed her disdain with a derisive look towards the guard.
The guard, biting back his retort, knew better than to engage. After all, the pair had introduced themselves as
the president's parents.
Just then, Lillian hung up and faced them with a composed expression.
