Chapter 1690:
Only then did the truth click for Brad—Jules had taken their money.
Brad and Ethan bolted out the door and tore off toward Jules’ home.
There, Jules reclined on a lounge chair, savoring an imported cigar while a dazzling fleet of limited-edition cars
gleamed in the sunlight behind him. When his brothers stormed up the drive, Jules lifted his gaze and flashed a
leisurely grin.
“Looking for your money? Go ask Josh for it. Everything | have here... | earned it with quick thinking and smart
tactics, not by waiting around.”
Brad scowled, refusing to buy it. “Cut the crap, Jules. That money belonged to us, and you know it.”
In a split second, Brad and Ethan stormed toward the garage, fists clenched and ready to wreck the lineup of
limited-edition cars.
Jules snapped, “I know who orchestrated the explosion all those years ago. That's why Daniela paidoff. And
the money is her way of saying thanks.”
When Brad and Ethan finally cornered Daniela, she faced them with effortless poise. “Yes. Anyone who brings me
useful information gets paid. That's how | run things—fair and square.”
Brad bristled with frustration. “But...”
Ethan's voice shook as he pressed the question. “Why pay with our money?”
Daniela looked up, her eyes steely and unbothered. “The McCoy family made their bed; now they must lie in it.”
Heavily pregnant, Daniela had grown drowsy most afternoons. Even with Cedric buried in work, he made it a
point to be by her side whenever she needed rest, slipping away from meetings just to keep her company.
Noticing Daniela’s eyelids fluttering, Cedric spoke up, cutting through the tension. “If you want your money, talk
to Josh. He's the one you should be chasing.”
Jaw tight with frustration, Brad threw a glare Daniela’s way. “You could have warned us. This was your setup—if
you wanted the money from Josh, why drag the rest of us down too? We've paid for a crwe didn’t commit.”

She lounged back on the sofa with a
faint, mocking smile, eyelids
half-lowered in feigned indolence.
“You really believe you're blameless
in all this? Who do you think
slo thafplds! n? None
of ybu-ar fat naive. Since you're all
so eager to feign ignorance, let's lay
the truth bare. Jules saw
everything—he caught Josh
threatening your father, vowing to get
rid of my child. Your father berated
him, but deep down, he didn't trust
Josh to finish the job. He also
couldn't risk my child being his first
great-grandson—robbing Josh's line
of its rightful glory. So, he took
matters into his own hands.” The

Daniela’s gaze turned razor-sharp.
“Back then, Mason's lover was
pregnant. Don't tellyou've
forgotten. Everyone assumed she'd
have a boy. In the end, your father's
fear that I'd snatch aw the ponor
meant ind goshts ye him to plan
te Ep osion himself. He did that for
Josh and the McCoy family. He was
worried I'd overshadow the entire
McCoy family, so he bribed my
housekeeper and plotted that
explosion. He didn't just want me
gone. He wanted Cedric dead. And
most of all, he was determined to kill
the child | was carrying. Your father's
gone now, but since all his schemes
were for your sake, none of you get to
walk away. And there's my mother's
death. Now it's tto settle the
score with the McCoy family.” The

With that, Daniela ripped away the
last shred of civility. She leveled a,
chilling gaze at Bratfahd Ethan, who
stoad ANKOR from her, pale-faced but
hardly shocked, and let out a derisive
laugh. The content is on
