Chapter 314:
“Oh, you were setting aside a wedding gift forwith the company’s operating funds?”
Caiden was momentarily at a loss for words.
Daniela continued, “So, to clarify, if this money earns any future profits, | can subtract those from your share of
the company dividends?”
Caiden stood dumbfounded, questioning her implication.
“What's the problem?” Daniela inquired, her tone sharp.
“Is that not acceptable? Or are you retracting your promise already?”
Before Caiden could muster a reply, Katrina intervened with a forced smile.
“Of course it’s acceptable! Why wouldn't it be? Daniela, you're family. What's yours is yours. We're just short on
cash right now, but rest assured, you'll receive everything you're entitled to.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDaniela nodded slightly in acknowledgment. Then, as though it were the most logical step, she reached under
the table and produced a blank sheet of paper.
“In that case, let's formalize it. Writean 10U.”
Katrina's smile stiffened.
“Daniela, is that really necessary among family? It feels so impersonal, doesn’t it? We're united in this, and our

Katrina maintained her plastered smile, barely managing to navigate through the tension.
Just as she was concocting an excuse, Joyce, without glancing away from Lillian’s phone, said nonchalantly,
“Mom, there's a pen in the cabinet. Fetch the black one—it leaves a clearer mark.”
Katrina's heart nearly stopped. She gawked at Joyce, her mind whirling in disbelief. Was this dumb girl truly her
flesh and blood? Caiden, seeing no escape, reluctantly picked up the pen and started to write the I0U.
When it cto specifying the amount, he hesitated. Instead of the staggering 80 million, he penned just 1
million.
Daniela caught the figure and chuckled.
“A million? How lavish!”
“Daniela, you're aware of my plight. I'm not getting any younger, and funds are tight. This is all | could muster—
saved penny by penny.”
Daniela hardly batted an eyelid. She hadn't returned for their wealth. With a dismissive wave, she turned and
called, “Josie.”
Josie emerged promptly from the kitchen, her smile radiant as she presented Daniela with a plate adorned with
fruit.

Daniela then handed her the 10U.
Josie glanced at the paper.
“This is one million,” Daniela stated plainly.
“Spend it on snacks for Dodo!”
