?Chapter 693:


    Lillian gazed at Nina with a puzzled expression and asked Dani,


    “Has she lost her mind today? Where is she getting this arrogance from? Just look at her, as if she’s Cedric’s wife.”


    Dani remained seated, her eyes fixed on Nina. She, too, noticed Nina’s odd demeanor.


    Typically, Nina was docile, particrly with a domineering sister like Natalie outshining her. Nina’s existence was not exactly smooth.


    Though she was an heiress of the Dury family, she hadn’t experienced the same privileges as Natalie. Her thoughts often leaned towards naivety.


    “Whenever things seem off, there’s usually a reason. Have someone keep an eye on Nina,” Dani instructed, her expression turning serious as she remembered seeing Elyse and Natalie whispering at the end of the corridor. She reached for her phone to review the surveince video from the corridor. Just as she was about to find out what Elyse and Natalie were discussing, a shadow emerged over herputer screen. Dani looked up to find Nina standing there.


    Though a hint of fear flickered in her eyes, she carried herself with a newfound confidence.


    “Dani, how is Cedric doing?”


    Dani responded coldly,


    “Didn’t you see it yourself?”


    Nina pursed her lips before saying,


    L??tеst chαpt?rs in g??l??ov???s.??????


    “I understand that I fall short in every waypared to you, but there’s one thing where you can’tpete. What I’m willing to do for Cedric is something you could never aplish in a lifetime.”


    Dani watched Nina silently. Her eyes were calm and unreadable.


    Nina admired herposed manner, wishing she could mirror it, but deep down, she knew she couldn’t. Standing in the shadows of Dani and Natalie, she often felt like a nobody.


    Yet, she was prepared to sacrifice everything for Cedric!


    In this matter, she was unmatched.


    Nina faced Dani and said,


    “I know you dislike me, and the feeling is mutual, but for Cedric’s sake, I will make an effort to get along with you in the future.” With those words, she turned and left.


    Dani navigated the surveince footage.


    Momentster, Lillian eximed,


    “Oh my! Is Nina really Elyse’s daughter? Has she lost her senses?”


    Dani’s gaze intensified.


    “Tsk! What a spectacle!”


    Lillian looked to Dani, who appeared determined.


    “What’s our next move?”


    Dani’s eyesnded on Linden, who was nearby. A cold, sharp intent shed in her eyes.


    Linden checked a message from Elyse on his phone, his lips curling into a sinister smile as he typed,


    “See you there.” He nced up and locked eyes with Dani.


    With a subtle smile, he approached.


    “Ms. Harper, do you need something?”
