?Chapter 1466:


    Cedric met her gaze, his tone casual and absolute. “Of course. We’re husband and wife.”


    There was no argument in her. Dani stretched her arm out from beneath the nket, a sly grin curving her lips. “Well then, help me find something to wear.”


    Cedric took the mostfortable home clothes from the wardrobe and handed them to Dani.


    “From now on, I’ll handle these little things.”


    As she dressed, her voice muffled behind a curtain of fabric, she asked, “So what’s left for me to do?”


    Her head popped through the neckline just as Cedric closed the distance, his hand gentle on her waist.


    He pressed his lips to hers—a kiss meant to be brief, but desire made him linger, stealing her breath and coaxing a softugh from her throat.


    Only when he finally let her go did he answer, “All you need to do is let me spoil you with kisses.”


    Dani descended the stairs to find the others gathered, each holding their breath as she appeared.


    She picked up a ss, taking an unhurried sip while their anxious gazes tracked her every move.


    Carol broke the silence, her voice tinged with concern.


    “Dani, are you really alright?”


    Before, whenever Dani had needed to act on short notice, she’d relied on tranquilizers. She had never seen Dani in such a state before. She was quite worried.


    “I’m fine. Slept well and feel even better,” Dani replied, her tone calm and sure. Last night, she and Cedric had been together twice, and the memory only bolstered her spirit.


    Cedric’s words echoed in her mind—they were a couple. She could do as she pleased.


    ?????????????? ?????? ?????????ν?????????????


    Carol’s sharp eyes lingered on Dani’s glowingplexion, a far cry from her ghostly pallor the day before.


    It struck her that Dani probably arrived in the world already perfect. “Good to hear it.”


    Once breakfast wrapped up, Carol leaned in, lowering her voice.


    “Cedric’s already dealt with Alexander. What’s our next move? Cedric said he’ll take care of everything.”


    The moment they heard this, the McCoy brothers exchanged uneasy nces, tension etched across their faces. Both sets of eyes drifted to Dani.


    Dani nodded.


    “Let Cedric handle it.”


    Damon stepped forward, his tone earnest.


    “Dani, do you know what Cedric did to Alexander?”


    Unfazed, Dani locked eyes with him.


    “We’re not the type to sit back and let ourselves be pushed around. Whatever Cedric decides, he has every right.”
