Chapter 270:
Such an ungrateful daughter!
The phrase echoed in his mind, a cruel reminder of his past leniency towards Daniela, making him feel utterly
foolish.
What an absolute disgrace!
The meeting unfolded in the cafeteria on the first floor. Daniela, fresh from leading a conference, treated herself
to a bowl of pasta, savoring each bite with serene composure.
Merely a few paces from her, Caiden and Katrina found themselves hemmed in by a quintet of imposing security
guards.
Daniela’s voice carried a cool detachment as she addressed them.
“If you have something to say, make it quick.

Caiden’s expression blended shock and pain.
“Daniela, is this how you treat your own father?”
Unperturbed, Daniela continued eating her food. Midway through her meal, she asked casually, “Did you take
that document severing our relationship as nothing more than a joke?”
Caiden opened his mouth to respond, yet words failed him. Daniela pressed on, her tone unyielding.
“After you exploited our last shred of familial ties to secure a position for Joyce, why pretend there’s a fence left
to mend?”
Katrina, attempting to diffuse the tension, chimed in with an overly bright smile.

“Con, that was just a family spat. Sometimes people say things they don’t mean in the heat of the
moment.”
“Is that so? That agreement is upheld by the law,” Daniela retorted, her voice slicing through the air.
“You're both well beyond the age of such jokes. If there’s something pressing on your minds, state it clearly.
Don’t waste my time.”
Caiden’s gaze lingered on Daniela’s face, seeing echoes of Brylee in her features, and his eyes narrowed with
resolve.
“Fine. Just givethe cardiac-repair medicine. Then I'll go,” Caiden declared, clenching his teeth as he felt his
dignity being eroded.
Katrina maintained her sweet demeanor, her smile unwavering.
“Daniela, since it’s clear you've stripped all sentiment from this equation, we shall not owe you any favors. Just
nyour price, and we'll settle it.”
She deliberately raised her voice, making sure the media clustered at the door caught every word, painting
Daniela as ruthless and opportunistic.
As Katrina's words hung in the air, Daniela flicked a glance towards her before turning her eyes to the media
throng at the entrance. She arched an eyebrow and allowed a small, knowing smile to play on her lips.

“Yes,” Daniela responded evenly.
“I do possess the treatment you're inquiring about, and if you're prepared to meet the cost, that’s agreeable to
me.”
Katrina, seizing the moment, leaned closer to Caiden and murmured conspiratorially, “Told you, didn’t I?
Daniela’s all about the money—nothing else matters to her. She'd overlook even the bonds of family for profit.
Once she states her price, let's skip the haggling. We'll manage it, for our baby’s sake.”
Katrina spoke with defiance, as though completely unafraid. She meant every word, or so it seemed.
