BossNovelChapter 1722:
Daniela sat down to eat.
When Cedric cdownstairs, she repeated the news. He simply nodded, colder than before, and began
squeezing juice for her.
Then Carol shuffled in, yawning. The housekeeper gave her the sreport.
Carol nodded, dropped onto the couch, and flipped on the TV.
Expecting her to turn to the news, the housekeeper watched. Instead, Carol chose a horror film and leaned back.
That's when it hit her. Their hearts were like ice. Brad had lived under their roof for a few days. Cedric even
belonged to the McCoy family. So why were they all acting like nothing had happened?
Right then, Hamilton stormed in, just as expected. His face was pale, and his voice shook. “Did you see it?
Something’s happened to Brad!”

Hamilton hesitated, then gave a reluctant nod. “Fair. But if it wasn’t you, then who in their right mind would try
to lay a hand on anyone from the McCoy family in Oiscoll?”
“Is that what you think?” Daniela’s tone was light, almost mocking. “You should open your mind a little more.
Ever consider the threat might be coming from inside the McCoy family itself?”
The idea clearly rattled Hamilton. His eyes narrowed as he mulled it over, the gears in his head turning behind a
mask of suspicion. Without another word, he spun on his heel and strode out of the room.

“Keep a close eye on things, Carol,” Daniela instructed curtly.
Carol, arms folded and chin tipped up in defiance, let out a disgruntled huff. “It wouldn't hurt for that old guy to
learn a lesson or two.”
Daniela glanced over, studying her for a long beat. Finally, she shrugged. “If it doesn’t bother you that he’s
Nikolas’ father, it certainly doesn’t bother me.”
