?Chapter 763:
Elyse chuckled, oblivious to Dani’s growing annoyance. “Oops! My mistake, Dani. Don’t hold it against me. I’m only looking out for you. A woman should manage her own finances after marriage.”
Dani smiled back. “Oh really? I thought you were handling my finances with all these ns. Cedric is precious to me, and I know how to tell the difference between those I’m close to and those I’m not.”
As soon as Dani finished speaking, Elyse’s face stiffened.
Lillian finally exhaled, the breath she’d been holding escaping in relief after nearly being suffocated by anger.
Elyse, visibly irritated, realized Dani truly knew how to drive her point home. “Fine, you’re right. I was mistaken. So, will you agree to these three terms, Dani?”
Elyse stared eagerly at Dani, her eyes fixed on her red lips, unblinking.
Elyse breathed a sigh of relief as soon as Dani gave her a favorable response.
Cedric stood off to the side, his brow knitted in a cold, prating stare at Elyse.
Dani remainedposed. “Since it’s a promise made by my mother, I will honor it. But for the continued sess of Elite Lux, I do have one condition I hope you’ll ept.”
Elyse was ecstatic, already counting her benefits in her mind. Dani’s directness made her regret not asking for even more.
“Alright. Go on,” Elyse agreed quickly. She had set three demands, and Dani only had one; it felt like a fair deal.
Dani smiled lightly. “Elite Lux is a global corporation. A ten percent shift in shares could stir external turmoil, so I need you to keep this confidential. Only those in this office should be aware. If not, the gift will be revoked. Do we have an agreement?”

Elyse nodded eagerly. “Of course!” After a moment, she asked, “What about Nina and Natalie? Can I tell them?”
Dani shook her head. “No. If that’s the case, the agreement is null. Everything I’ve promised will be rescinded, and you alone will bear the consequences.”
Elyse hesitated. “But Nina and Natalie are my daughters. If you don’t trust Nina, can I at least tell Natalie?”
Dani let out a soft chuckle. Her smile was slight but sharp. “I don’t quite get it. The recording from my mother spoke of ensuring your retirement care. Why bring others into this? Or should I be responsible for Nina and Natalie as well?”
Elyse was on the verge of agreeing when Dani shook her head. “If that’s the case, I don’t have to honor my mother’s promise. It was hermitment to you, and Elite Lux is mine. If you have future needs, you can ess funds from Harper Group’s ounts.”
“That won’t work,” Elyse panicked. “Harper Group is in shambles, losing money.”
Dani fell silent.
Elyse understood that Dani was waiting for her to make a choice.
The decision involved hundreds of billions in assets.
Elyse was greatly tempted, and after a moment, she nodded. “Alright.”
Dani gave a slight nod. “I’ll draw up an agreement. I’ll honor your retirement ns, but if you disclose any details to others, the agreement will be void.”
