Chapter 860:


    Cedric was eager for a child, but Dani slipped on a coat, smiling. “Lillian needs me for something. I’ll be back in thirty minutes.” Cedric could only wait.


    Dani, slightly confused, approached Lillian. “What’s going on? I only have thirty minutes.”


    Lillian hesitated for a moment before saying, “Don’t spoil Cedric too much. He’ll be impossible to handle. Once you have a child, he’ll never let you out of his sight!”


    Dani chuckled, unfazed. “What is it?”


    Lillian informed her, “A group of people have been staying around the vi.” Dani looked at Lillian.


    Lillian added, “I spotted someone familiar—Mose from Lone Wolf.”


    Dani inquired, “Why are they here? Ah, I get it… They epted the contract—eight hundred million to abduct Cedric.”


    Lillian’s eyes widened. “Who’s throwing around that kind of money?” Kidnapping wasn’t murder. This was about iming Cedric.


    Lillian gestured upstairs. “Does he know?”


    Dani didn’t even nce up. “It’s minor. No need to inform him.”


    Lillian smirked knowingly. “Someone spent eight hundred million just to snatch Cedric. That’s some serious devotion. Looks like you havepetition!”


    Dani remained indifferent. “Not many can afford that kind of money, I’ll find out who.”


    A sum like that wouldn’t go unnoticed in the banking system.


    Dani reached for aptop and started typing.


    From the corner of her eye, Dani noticed someone descending the stairs. Cedric stood on the staircase, gazing at her with feigned sadness. “Your thirty minutes are up.”


    Dani sighed, handing theptop to Ryan. “You take over the search.”


    Lillian folded her arms, mildly irritated by how Dani indulged Cedric. She remarked pointedly, “Dani’s busy. Cedric, maybe be a little considerate?”


    Cedric’s chest swelled with pride as Dani ascended the stairs. “Why would—”


    Dani swung open her bedroom door and was instantly enveloped in a tight embrace. A soft chuckle escaped her.


    Cedric clung to her, murmuring, “Dani, you are my greatest love in this entire world.”


    He was truly jealous. Triggered by a cryptic text, he spent all night whispering sweet words to her.


    Upon rising the next day, Dani felt her legs wobble.


    Opening the door, she was shocked to see Ryan and Lillian standing there, arms folded. “Don’t you two have anything better to do than eavesdrop outside my room?” she asked.


    Ryan shook his head. “We’ve been deceived!”


    Lillian’s face was grave as she said, “It’s true what they say—the deepest stabse from the closest knives.” Ryan nodded vigorously.


    Confusion clouded Dani’s face.


    She stepped back into her room, with Ryan and Lillian trailing behind.


    “We’ve uncovered three things.”


    Dani filled a ss with water, waiting for them to continue.
