Listening closely, Nikolas watched their faces. Slowly, his stern expression loosened, the edge of suspicion
fading. “Then we're agreed. No one makes a move on their own. No private dealings with Daniela.”
Both Charles and Kohen nodded in unison. “Of course not. We're family. And family decisions stay in the family.”
By the tnight settled over the city, the hospital had grown still. Kohen lay in silence, his eyes drifting toward
the glowing moon outside the window. After a while, he whispered, “Nikolas?” Only silence greeted him.
Moments passed, and with no reply, he tried again, voice even softer. “Charles?” Still nothing.
Roughly five minutes later, the soft rustle of a blanket broke the silence. A quiet figure slipped out of bed, slipped

Just before crossing the threshold, Daniela turned her head slightly, stealing a final glance at Cedric, who stood
frozen inside the villa. Their eyes met momentarily, and though Cedric’s gaze lingered, Daniela broke it off
without hesitation, striding out decisively.
Carol, trailing slightly behind, looked back several times. “Looks like Cedric’s on the verge of tears. Isn't this a bit
too cruel?”
Daniela’s lips tightened, and she kept walking, her silence heavy with unspoken thoughts.
Yet deep down, she understood the gravity of her decision. If she wavered now, Cedric might join the McCoy
