?Chapter 712:


    Nina lowered her voice.


    “I have a secret. Help me, and I’ll tell you what I know.”


    Dani smiled.


    Nina’s voice turned grave.


    “It’s about your mother’s death.


    You’ve always suspected my mother had something to do with it, and she’s not alone in this.” With Dani’s influence, Elyse wouldn’t have been able to get this far.


    “I can tell you who’s supporting her. But first, I need your help with my favor.”


    Dani chuckled lightly.


    “Is this how you n to repay me?”


    Nina pressed her lips together before sinking to her knees.


    “I’m the one who’s neglected at home.


    You’ve gone through something simr in the Harper family. Please, just help me one more time.”


    Dani sat cross-legged on the sofa, letting the TV show hum in the background.


    The rain softly tapped against the windows outside.


    Surrounded by the rain and the sound of her own pounding heartbeat, Nina heard Dani finally say, “Alright.”


    Nina’s heart leapt in her chest. This was the best oue she could have hoped for.

    She lowered her head in gratitude.


    “Thank you. I’ll never forget your kindness.”


    Lillian presented Nina with several potential husbands—decent, stable candidates.


    But Nina selected a man with rather average looks, someone who also had a physical disability.


    Lillian gave Nina a quick nce before turning to Dani.


    “You have a unique outlook, Nina. Sammy Wesker may have physical challenges, but he’s made over a hundred million. Looks like you know what’s more important.”


    The words were cutting, but Nina didn’t take offense. Lillian was implying Nina was only after the money.


    When Lillian left, Dani said calmly, “Marriage is a significant decision. Once you’re in, you can’t undo it. If none of these men feel right, take your time. The Harper family vi has plenty of rooms for you to stay.”


    Nina’s eyes filled with tears.


    “Don’t you think I’m just being money-hungry by choosing Sammy?”


    Dani remained emotionless.


    “How you choose is your choice. When you decide to rely on someone for a lifetime, you need to choose carefully to gain a stable and longsting rtionship.”


    Nina smiled faintly.


    “You’re always so wise.” She gave a bitterugh.


    “I know I don’t have your abilities. I can’t rely on my own skills to protect myself, so I look for support. If my mother thinks I could settle for someone like Linden, surely she won’t mind a son-inw with a limp. Besides, Sammy’s social standing and abilities outshine Elyse’s. If I marry him, Elyse won’t dare send me to Linden. I know you’ll protect me, but it’s time for me to take control of my future. I need to grow up.”


    It was only when Nina went to try on wedding dresses that Elyse heard the news—Nina was getting married.
