WantNovelChapter 1384: Those fools didn't even possess a fraction of Cedric's sense. If Daniela ever got her hands on them, she'd tear them apart in an instant.
Furious, Hamilton ordered everyone out of his study. But Nikolas refused to give up. He stood outside all night, hoping to change his father's mind.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHamilton remained resolute, unmoved by their arguments. He was stubborn as a mule, and to avoid further pleading, he had Nikolas locked inside the house.
Just as Hamilton was about to leave, Damon intercepted him at the car.
"Dad, I've never been ambitious. You know that. I've never cared about the McCoy fortune," Damon said, his voice uncharacteristically sincere, even more so than Alexander's. He met Hamilton's eyes. "You've always said I wasted my potential, but the truth is I don't care about the family business. My only passion is gambling, and I've admired Shim for years. I've never loved anyone else but her. I know what you're worried about-that we're no match for Daniela and she'll manipulate us. So please, letgo after her. I don't want a single cent of the inheritance. All I want is a chance to be with her." Then Damon dropped to his knees with a thud.
Hamilton's fury spiked. "Have you completely lost your mind? You would give up your family for a woman? Besides, are you even sure you care about Daniela, or are you just obsessed with Shim? Have you figured that out?" The question left Damon speechless.
Without another word, Hamilton climbed into his car and slammed the door.

When he arrived at his office, his mood had only worsened—especially when he looked out the window and saw Daniela across the street in the opposite building. Their eyes met for a brief moment, and Hamilton's glare turned icecold.

His jaw clenched as he closed his eyes, forcing himself to remain calm. He stormed into the elevator, where his wellmeaning secretary waited.
"Sir, there's really no need to be so upset. Daniela is clearly talented. It's no surprise your sons are drawn to her." To the secretary, Daniela was a radiant gem-no wonder people were captivated by her.
"Besides," the secretary added, "if she marries into the McCoy family im would be a powerful alliance. A winwin situation."
But Hamilton wasn't convinced. "You don't understand. People change. Right now, she's infatuated with Cedric. Everything looks perfect. But what happens when that affection fades?"
He remembered the grand promises he once made to Cedric's mother-and.
