?Chapter 275:


    A bitter smirk crossed Alexander’s lips, pulling painfully at his fresh stitches, making him grimace.


    “Dani’s making quite the spectacle. She’s using this to embarrass Caiden.” Richard nodded, his brow furrowed in thought.


    “But why didn’t she just seize control of the entirepany? It was her mother who established it, after all. What stopped her from going after the wholepany? Is there still a part of her that cares about Caiden, even after everything?”


    Alexander’s scoff was tinged with scorn, his expression growing sterner.


    “That kind of emotion doesn’t exist in Dani’s world. Look at my scars—do you really think a person capable of this harbors any kindness? Her beauty is merely a facade, a tool for devastation.”


    Richard cast a nce at Alexander. It sounded like Alexander had moved on from Dani.


    Yet, when the surgeon posed a question about whether Alexander desired his post-operative appearance to mirror his former self or to be altered, Alexander had wanted it to be as it was before.


    Richard believed Alexander still had lingering affections for Dani.


    As Alexander and Richard ambled near the maternity ward, Caiden’s loud curses came from within. The whole corridor echoed with his voice.


    Richard and Alexander slowed their steps, drawn by themotion.

    “Dani! What a fucking nightmare she is! If I’d known the hell Brylee was bringing, I’d have stopped it before it started!”


    Katrina let out a soft sigh.


    Caiden continued, “For fuck’s sake, now that she’s holding 51%, she thinks she’s untouchable, turning Harper Group into a yground for herckeys. What’s her endgame? To push her own father out?”


    On the other side of the ss door, Alexander observed as the veins on Caiden’s neck stood out starkly, his fury palpable and filling every corner of the room.


    A mischievous grin curled at the corners of Katrina’s mouth.


    “Caiden, why fight Dani for Harper Group? We’ve still got 49% of the shares, and look at her now—she’s running both Elite Lux and Dreamscape. Even a small slice of the profits from thosepanies flowing into Harper Group would be enough to revive it. Wouldn’t it be smarter to just sit back and watch the money roll in?”


    Upon hearing this, Richard and Alexander shared a meaningful look. It was evident that Katrina possessed a more strategic mind than Caiden.


    Meanwhile, Caiden sat stiff as a board, his bruised ego stered all over his face. He detested the very notion. Thepany histe wife had established had thrived under her direction but dwindled on his watch, now teetering on the brink of copse. The senior executives’ growing discontent with his leadership was palpable.


    Was it the right move for Dani to take control? Her cutthroat efficiency promised a swift resurgence for Harper Group.


    Yet, the mere thought tormented Caiden. What would the public think?


    They wouldbel him a failure, a man devoid of personal achievement. First, he had depended on his wife, and now on his daughter? What a pathetic way to ruin his reputation!


    Observing the turmoil etched across his face, Katrina leaned closer.


    “Why concern ourselves with idle gossip? Dani is your flesh and blood. If she revitalizes Harper Group and fortifies it, our dividends by year’s end will surely swell. Truly, what weight do the opinions of strangers hold? Ultimately, it is we who will enjoy the fruits of herbor.”


    Under Caiden’s stewardship, the trajectory of Harper Group had nosedived, marking yet another dismal chapter in its history.
