?Chapter 648:


    Dani came homete that night.


    As she entered, she quickly messaged Cedric. As she passed the kitchen, Josie opened the ss door and greeted her, “Good evening, Dani.”


    Dani turned toward her and replied, “Good evening.”


    Josie retrieved the hand cream from her pocket. Dani instantly recognized the brand.


    “What’s going on?” she asked.


    “Nina gave this to me,” Josie replied.


    Dani smiled at the mention of it.


    “This brand is excellent. It’s a luxury brand.”


    Josie looked uneasy.


    “It’s not about the hand cream. I wanted to tell you that Nina isn’t as simple as she seems. She gave me such an extravagant gift. She must have some agenda. Before going to her room, she even asked me which room Cedric is staying in.”


    Josie had been feeling anxioustely.


    Ever since Dani and Cedric got together, he hadn’t traveled far. But this time, when he left, he was in a bad mood and had been gone for a week.


    When Josie asked Cedric if he had argued with Dani, he remained silent. Her anxiety deepened.


    She began to wonder if Dani no longer cared about Cedric.


    “It’s fine,” Dani said, smiling.

    “Just focus on your work, Josie. Whatever Nina gives you, feel free to ept it.” It was like a free meal. Why not take it?


    Dani went upstairs, leaving Josie behind, her brow furrowed with worry.


    She couldn’t help but wonder if Dani and Cedric had truly fought or broken up. Otherwise, Dani’s reaction wouldn’t be so strange.


    She had already warned her about Nina’s ulterior motives, yet Dani remained unbothered.


    Did Dani not care at all anymore?


    Josie’s heart skipped a beat as she sensed something was wrong.


    Without hesitation, she grabbed her phone and called Cedric, urgently recounting everything that had just transpired.


    Panic filled Josie’s voice as she spoke into the phone.


    “Cedric, when are youing back? You’ve put so much effort into winning Dani’s heart—don’t give up now. I’m not seeing any urgency from her. She doesn’t even seem jealous, which isn’t right in a rtionship.”


    Cedric was already feeling agitated. Josie’s words struck him like a dagger to the heart. He felt a wave of dread wash over him.


    Dani had returned home just to change. Before leaving again, she saw Josie on the phone, pacing in the courtyard.


    From behind the ss, she couldn’t hear their conversation, but it was obvious that Josie was so frantic she seemed ready to jump out of her skin.


    Dani cast a brief nce in her direction, lifted the hem of her dress, and stepped out the door.


    Josie turned and saw Dani leaving. She quickly said to Cedric, “Dani’s gone out. She only came back to change. She put on a stunning dress—looks like she’s heading out for a date. Please, when will you be back? If you don’t hurry, I’m afraid another man might steal her away.”


    Josie wasn’t entirely to me for her distress.
