NovelFameChapter 1665:
As soon as he heard the question, Cedric shifted his gaze toward Hamilton and rolled his eyes without holding
back.
Hamilton picked up on it right away. There was something loaded in that glance.
A flicker of hope rose in him. For a second, he imagined Cedric might square his shoulders and say with
conviction, “I'll handle this myself.” But that wasn’t what happened.
Cedric, the son Hamilton always praised as exceptional, simply stretched out his legs and replied, “You might
have gotten the wrong idea.”
Hamilton stared, stunned.
Cedric continued, “Daniela calls the shots on everything. Only when she doesn’t want to take charge, I'll step in.”
The words were tough to hear. Even so, Hamilton studied Cedric’s face and saw no trace of shame. Cedric didn’t
seem the least bit bothered. He looked like he meant every word.
A wave of irritation bubbled up in Hamilton's chest. “You're a man, Cedric! Don’t you feel any pride in being a

Cedric stopped kneading. Slowly, he turned his head and looked at Hamilton.
Hamilton's ears had gone bright red.

Cedric narrowed his eyes. “Funny. | remember you tellingyou never went back to see her.”
Hamilton let out a tic sigh. “I said that because | was embarrassed. Truth is, | went five times. Five! And
the last time, she gavea look so cold | still feel it. So you're not like her at all. She treatedlike trash after
she got what she wanted.”
In those days, she was a top model. Everyone wanted her. She didn’t need a man like me.”
He had spent years pretending none of it happened, telling people he never chased after Cedric’s mother—all to
protect his bruised pride.
