Chapter 379:
Could Daniela really be worth such a wild leap?
For Alexander, the answer was crystal clear—she wasn’t.
But a moment later, his thoughts clouded with a subtle sadness. He had lied to Cedric. Daniela hadn't seen him
just now.
He didn’t know when it had started, but somewhere along the line, he had becinvisible to her—just another
face in the crowd she no longer cared to recognize.
He'd uttered a clumsy lie without understanding why he’d even said it.
Was it just because Cedric’s presence grated on his nerves? Yes, that had to be it.
Daniela stood motionless in the room. The health monitor on her wrist blinked unevenly, a silent echo of the
tension filling the room.

“Are you sure we don’t need Marlin’s help?” Richard asked.
“Yes. Daniela has granted Cedric the chance to woo her.”
Confused, Richard asked, “It’s just a chance to pursue her. Why does he need her permission for that? If he
wants to go after her, he should just do it.”
Alexander stared at the city lights far in the distance, his tone steady but laced with thought.
“Do you really think anyone could approach Daniela if she didn’t want them to? Since Elite Lux cinto power,

Richard stayed quiet for a moment before finally asking, “So, do you really think there’s no point in asking Marlin
to step in for you?”
Alexander's eyes wandered towards the faint outlines of the grassland in the fading light.
He felt the urge to respond firmly, “No, it’s not necessary.” But deep down, he wondered if saying that might
mean he and Daniela would end up drifting apart, just like that.
Alexander’s pause gave Richard the chance to chin.
“Give it one last shot. Caiden’s pushing for your marriage to Joyce, and with Elite Lux now aligned with Harper
Group, their future looks promising. People are already asking Katrina about Joyce. In our world, alliances and
gains always take priority.”
In a composed tone, Alexander replied, “Fine. Make the arrangements.”
Marlin wasted no tand showed up at Daniela’s office the following day.
Cedric was tending to a plant in Daniela’s office, having sent Huntley off on an errand earlier that morning.
He looked visibly pleased with himself.
Marlin stopped in his tracks when his eyes landed on Cedric, surprise flickering across his face.
“Mr. Phillips? What brings you here?” Marlin asked, visibly stunned. Could Cedric and Daniela be in a
relationship? If that were the case, speaking up would be a challenge. Besides, next to Cedric, Alexander didn’t

Cedric recognized Marlin immediately; he was a man held in high regard. He flashed a polite smile and declared,
“I'm here because I'm courting Daniela.”
Cedric, feeling invincible, was bursting with pride, ready to tell anyone and everyone that he was pursuing
Daniela.
