Later, they had breakfast together without incident. When Cedric went out to fetch the car, Nikolas, too restless to sit, insisted on joining Daniela.
As they stood by the door waiting for Cedric, Daniela broke the silence. "I'm only going to say this once." Her voice was steady, but her expression carried a chilling edge. Nikolas had never seen her like that. "Whatever you're scheming is your business. I don't care. But if you want even the slightest respect from me, you'd better stop making life harder for Cedric. He treats you like family—that's the only reason you're still here. Keep pulling stunts like you did today, and I promise it'll go worse for you than when Hamilton cut you off." Nikolas frowned. "What did I even do? Besides, you're meeting with those business folks today. Cedric's bound to hear about it. You really think you can hide it?" A murderous glint flashed in Daniela's eyes-unmistakable and unrestrained, leaving Nikolas momentarily stunned.
"How he finds out isn't your concern. I told you I'd say this once. Don't makerepeat myself. The only reason you're here is because Cedric lets you.

It took him a few beats to realize-Daniela had just issued her second warning. The weight of her words settled in his chest.
If Cedric could earn such loyalty from someone like her, could anyone ever steal her from him? He lowered his eyes, feeling as if the whole world had turned its back on him. From the side, Carol stepped out and caught the look on his face.
Carol offered him a light smile.

Nikolas scoffed. "You're joking, right? That's She's ter content ucidea of easy?".
Carol laughed. "You don't get it. Daniela is strict with herself but lenient with others. She protects her own and won't let anyone mistreat O. the people close to her-that includes you now. Just stay on her good side. You've already seen what happens when you don't. As long as you don't cross that line, she's honestly not hard to deal with."
