Cedric opened his laptop and responded with politeness, "Of course, we're family. A few million is nothing to us." Natalie smiled broadly and nodded eagerly. "So when will you send the money?" Natalie, eager to see Daniela out of the picture, continued, "Cedric, with your large company, you could transfer the funds immediately, couldn't you?" Cedric nodded. "Yes." Natalie was thrilled. She was about to call the finance department when Cedric suddenly asked, "What do you plan to offer as collateral?" Nataly's smile froze, and her grip on the phone tightened. She stared at Cedric, stunned. "What? You need collateral?" Cedric looked at her calmly. "Of course, loans require collateral." Natalie was taken aback. "But you just said we're family." Cedric nodded once more. “Even among family, it's important to keep things clear and manage them properly. So, what can you provide as collateral?" "The villa? Hmmm... It's sold. Your handbags? The one you're holding is second-hand, only worth a few thousand, not nearly enough. And jewelry... You don't have any left." Cedric looked up at Natalie. "So, what will you use for collateral?" Natalie gasped. She felt Cedric wasn't truly planning to lend her the money; instead, he seemed to be using this as a chance to embarrass her.
"Daniela, won't you intervene?" Natalie walked over to Daniela. "We're cousins. I'm definitely on your side. Honestly, you shouldn't let Cedric manage all your finances. Didn't you see the news yesterday? Cedric was involved with Joyce. How can you still entrust him with so much money? You need to be more careful. Women shouldn't trust men with their money; keep it yourself. Or better yet, lethandle it. I've cacross sexcellent investment opportunities lately. Letshow them to you. What do you say?" Natalie looked seriously at Daniela. "I mean it. Men can be dishonest. Don't trust them too much. Trustinstead. Hand the money over to me, will you?" Cedric stood up, left the room, and slammed the door behind him, the sound echoing throughout the office.
Natalie pointed at Cedric's vanishing figure and growled, "Daniela, did you see that? Money really changes people. Cedric has the nerve to disrespect you like that! You need to teach him a lesson!" Natalie stared at Daniela, her eyes brimming with anticipation.
Daniela cupped her chin with one hand, her expression indifferent.
"Really? I actually like the bad boy type."

"Daniela, you're not exactly the m hopeless romantic type. Money Fin matters, you know. How does Cedric have a hold on you?"
Daniela shrugged. "I didn't realize it before, but I guess Lama romantic I vel after all Natalie sighed, feeling utterly defeated as Daniela's proud expression lingered.
She departed Daniela's office, only to be stopped at the door. A hand m extended a sleek black card towards her. "Five million!"
