Chapter 1597:
Cedric stood beside Daniela, his eyes cutting across the faces staring back at them. The McCoy family shuffled
backward, fear gripping their steps. One thought flashed in their minds: neither Cedric nor Daniela was easy to
handle.
Daniela sank into the couch, her expression calm as she asked, “What do you want from me?”
Brad threw Cedric a wounded look but forced a grin. He shoved the ginseng box forward and said, “We're family.
Daniela, since you're expecting, we thought we should check on you. See this? It's ginseng. Top grade. We
brought it just for you.”

Cedric eyed the box and saw the ginseng inside. His tone turned frosty. “We are not family. | have never
accepted the McCoy name.”
A shadow crossed Brad's face at those words. How could Cedric be this ungrateful? People outside begged to tie
their nto the McCoy family, yet Cedric treated them like poison. Pushing down his pride, Brad smiled. “No
need for hurtful words. We share blood, so that makes us family. Daniela is carrying a baby, and we're thrilled for
her. We just dropped by to see her. But...”
He turned his eyes to Carol, who stood nearby with arms folded. To him, Carol was nothing more than a servant.
They could not offend Daniela, but tearing down someone beneath her was fair game.
Brad continued, “Your servant crossed a line. She didn’t greet us properly and then got rude. She even laid
hands on Ethan—look at his finger! Cedric, Daniela is expecting now. The people close to her matter most.”
His eyes glinted with slyness. “Then again, you just moved to QOiscoll. No surprise you don’t have trusted folks
yet. What if | help you out?”
Brad faked a sweet smile. “I can send you proper staff, inside and outside, to keep everything neat. Trust me,
these are my people, and you'll like them. How about it?”
Daniela caught every bit of his sly plan.

The more Brad schemed, the smarter he felt. If his people slipped in, he would have every chance to get rid of
the baby growing in Daniela’s belly.
If Daniela lost this child—after two miscarriages—maybe she would never carry again.
Satisfied with his idea, Brad traded looks with his family. They nodded back at him.
Cedric’s eyes hardened. He would not let these snakes linger a second longer.
Daniela gave Cedric a reassuring look and then said, “Carol is family to me. She's no servant.”
Her words caught the McCoy family off guard. No one expected Daniela to treat her assistant as family.
Silence settled over the room. The McCoys always held themselves high, too proud to show warmth.
Brad broke the pause. “Daniela, with respect, a servant stays a servant. How can you call her family? But since
you claim Carol is family, you'd better explain how she dared to break one of our fingers.”
Daniela turned her head and met Carol's eyes.
