Chapter 1725:
Hamilton glanced over, struck by how much Carol echoed Daniela in that moment.
Carol spoke quietly but with unmistakable conviction. “My life isn’t smelo. I'm the main character, not
a sidekick. If Nikolas can’t even get a handle on his own family, he’s not qualified to stand beside me.”
For a second, Hamilton couldn’t look away from her—he saw Daniela’s determination shining through. He studied
the curve of her face, a sudden thought gnawing at him. Maybe he failed as a brother and a father. The brothers
he’d treated with genuine loyalty, the sons he'd tried so hard to mentor—why did none of them possess the
ssteel, the unshakable pride, as the people loyal to Daniela?
Once Hamilton was gone, Jules strolled into Josh's place.
Josh sat slouched on the couch, legs bouncing restlessly.
Was Brad dead or not? And what had happened to Ethan? Where had the body disappeared to?
Jules noticed Josh's distracted air and spoke up. “Josh, what's got you so deep in thought?”
Josh jerked upright, snapping out of his trance. “What?”

Jules’ eyes narrowed. “Who do you think actually killed Brad? Is Daniela going to make it through tonight or not?
It's already past midnight. Why haven't any of our people reported back?”
Josh’s stomach twisted with unease, a cold sweat prickling his skin as he realized things were slipping beyond his
grasp. He tightened his fists and hurriedly dialed one of his men.
The line clicked, and a low voice answered, barely above a whisper. “Mr. McCoy?”
Josh didn’t waste time. “Any updates on Daniela?”
The man hesitated, then replied quietly, “Nothing at all. It’s dead silent over there. Daniela’s in her room—looks
like she’s sleeping. No signs of anything out of the ordinary.”
Josh’s brow furrowed, an uneasy suspicion creeping in. “No cars in or out? Not even a doctor dropping by? Did
they find anything? Comb through every detail—I don’t want anything slipping past us.”

The man’s eyes went wide, nerves edging into his voice. “I swear, nothing unusual. The weather's been awful;
nobody’s cor gone. I've had a clear view of the living room the whole time. Daniela’s barely moved from the
sofa—just watching TV. The only person near her was Cedric, who handed her sfruit. No close contact, no
visitors.”
