Chapter 1704:
Still, Brad felt no rush—he could indulge her arrogance for a little while longer. Soon enough, when blood poured
from every part of her and Cedric could do nothing but hold her as she slipped away, Brad wondered if Daniela
would still wear that look of untouchable pride.
After blowing off steam outdoors, Brad finally made his way back.
Upon stepping into the house, he noticed Hamilton had returned.
A grumble slipped from Brad, “What a hassle.” He quickly plastered on a smile and asked, “I thought you went to

for coffee tomorrow afternoon. Clearly, he wants to talk about Nikolas. These chances don’t coften. If you let
it pass, where else will Nikolas find such a strong match for an alliance down the road?”

lunch?”
Without missing a beat, Hamilton answered, “I have sbusiness to handle, so | won't be hfor lunch. You
should have someone accompany you when you go walking.”
His eyes landed on Carol, who was just making her way in from the yard, and he added with a note of worry,
“Take Cedric along. It’s busy out there. Please don’t head out alone.”
