?Chapter 885:


    Alexander also found this puzzling. He had relied on insider information, which boasted about the bounty order’s wless track record.


    Considering that Cedric was merely a businessman,cking any form of protection, his evasion was puzzling. Now, the intermediary Alexander had used was nowhere to be found. This situation left him with a bad feeling.


    Alexander had initially nned to take out Cedric first, then eliminate Joyce, clearing his path to Dani. However, it appeared his strategy needed some revisions.


    Upon her return home, Dani was met by Lillian with unexpected news. “Joyce has disappeared.”


    Dani looked at Lillian. “Are you sure? She was in my office earlier today.”


    Lillian confirmed with a nod and showed Dani a video. The surveince footage captured Joyce walking through a mall when suddenly, a battered, nondescript van pulled up alongside her. Within moments, she was pulled into the vehicle.


    The incident caused panic among bystanders, who quickly alerted the police. By the time the police arrived, Joyce was already missing.


    Lillian exined, “This appears to be a well-nned abduction. The van managed to evade all cameras while exiting. As of now, there’s no sign of Joyce.”


    Dani’s expression turned serious. There was something particrly strange about this event.


    Lillian continued, “Fairburne Group is in chaos. There’s widespread spection about who will inherit Joyce’s assets should anything happen to her.” Since Joyce had no children and Katrina had passed away, the only remaining rtive was Caiden, still officially recorded as family with Joyce. That, indeed, was a stroke of luck.


    Lillian smiled broadly. “Dani, given that Caiden is under psychiatric care and you’re his only child, you have a legitimate im to this wealth.” Her excitement was evident.

    Dani, however, did not share her excitement. “If someone orchestrated this entire situation, do you really think they’d simply allow Caiden or me to inherit everything without a challenge? Just wait. The person responsible will show themselves eventually.”


    Dani’s insight was remarkably urate.


    Later that day, Fairburne Group convened an urgent press conference.


    A mysterious figure, dressed in a ck suit and wearing a mask, dered on camera that he would act as the interim chairman of Fairburne Group during Joyce’s absence. He added that should Joyce be officially dered deceased, he would legally inherit all her assets.


    This announcement stunned the public, sparking spection about the masked man’s identity.


    Watching the broadcast, Dani focused intently on the man’s eyes, which were visible behind therge mask. They looked remarkably simr to Cedric’s.


    She wasn’t the only one who made the connection.


    Others also noticed the resemnce and beganparing photos of Cedric. Soon, rumors spread that Cedric had inherited Joyce’s vast fortune. Resourceful individuals even uncovered video footage of Joyce at Phillips Group, just an hour before she vanished.


    This fueled widespread spection that Cedric was, in fact, the new chairman of Fairburne Group. Public curiosity turned the situation into a dramatic love triangle, and an intense battle for power began to emerge.


    However, following the press conference, the interim chairman withdrew from the public eye. This absence only intensified the rumors, leading people to conclude that Cedric must have stepped back from public appearances because he couldn’t juggle two roles.
