Chapter 272:
Daniela’s features softened, a mixture of relief and sorrow playing across her face. Her eyes, brimming with tears
yet unshed, met the camera lenses.
“Initially, we intended to present this research at a grander affair.
Yet, circumstances have compelled us to proceed otherwise. The sheer scale of investment in this technology is
astronomical—top-tier equipment, legions of engineers, and endless nights devoid of sleep. Is it unreasonable,
then, to seek 300 million for treatment?”
“No, it isn't!” the crowd roared back, sattendees visibly tearful, moved by her heartfelt words.
Daniela then fixed her intense gaze on Caiden.
“Mr. Harper, do you still consider it expensive?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCaiden’s hand tightened into a fist, every muscle straining as if he was fighting the urge to unleash hell.
Was it expensive? Securing 300 million would stretch Harper Group's finances to their limits.
Was it excessive? The funds would be his own—undeniably, it was a hefty sum.
However, Daniela had expertly swayed the crowd, turning them into her staunch allies.
The term “expensive” almost escaped his lips, but he restrained himself, keeping it unspoken.
Daniela’s face was a mask of seriousness, her eyes methodically scanning the audience.

“I never planned to air personal grievances in such a public forum, yet here we are, surrounded by onlookers and
the integrity of our research institute hanging in the balance. As many of you are aware, Katrina is my
stepmother, and Joyce is my stepsister. Over the years, they have basked in opulence, whereas | was ostracized.
Harper Group, my mother’s legacy, seems forgotten. | often ponder—would my mother regret her choice in a
partner if she witnessed this today?”
Caiden’s reaction was one of utter disbelief. He pointed to Daniela, his voice shaking.
“What are you implying?”
Daniela faced the audience again, her smile tinged with bitterness.
“I'm suggesting that everything changed with my stepmother’s arrival. | was sidelined as others reveled in the
fortunes that were rightfully mine. And now, after all my endeavors and successes, Caiden and his scheming
spouse seek to strip it all from me!”
Emotion overwhelmed Daniela; she clasped her chest, her voice breaking from the strain.
“Tell me, does justice even exist anymore? Or is this world just one big pile of shit?”
Lillian advanced, placing a supportive hand on Daniela’s shoulder, addressing the gathered reporters.
“You all know Ms. Harper rarely justifies her actions.
Yet today, circumstances have driven her to these extremes. Her father has disowned her; her quest for justice
rests upon your shoulders!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDaniela flicked her hand dismissively.
“Con, Lillian, let's get out of here.”
Lillian, standing tall yet imbued with a subdued grief, assisted Daniela as they made their way to the elevator.
The crowd jeered, hurling insults at Caiden, calling him a pathetic failure of a father. Daniela entered the elevator
and glanced at Lillian.
