Chapter 86
Chapter 86:
Katrina, instead of showing even a shred of concern, had greeted Daniela with venomous scolding, her voice
harsh as she spat out accusations of impropriety.
Caiden had been no better, hurling insults with reckless abandon, calling Daniela an “ungrateful brat.”
In the end, he and Katrina had ordered the maids to drag Daniela to the bathroom so she wouldn't stink up the
sofa with that smell. It was at that moment that Alexander realized Daniela had no one to rely on.
Perhaps it was in that very moment that his treatment of her had worsened.
Because he understood all too well the cracks in human nature.
He knew Daniela was utterly alone—no family to support her, no safetyto catch her. She had sacrificed

In the end, people could only depend on themselves. No one else would ever truly prioritize their well-being.

Caiden, uninterested in the finer points of her tantrum, shrugged without looking up.

Joyce didn’t care either. She had claimed her prize: the 18th to 20th floors of the Luxor Tower. Tomorrow, she

That night, she rallied her friends and headed to a bar.
Fueled by alcohol and euphoria, Joyce climbed unsteadily onto the stage, snatching up a microphone.
