?Chapter 1521:


    “Who gave you permission toe in?” Niks saw Dani shove someone aside—probably the secretary—but his vision was already dimming.


    Everything went dark after that.


    By the time Hamilton arrived with the princess, Niks had already been taken away. Hamilton clenched his jaw but kept his expression pleasant.


    “This way, please.”


    The princess didn’t move.


    “Why did you even ask me toe? I told youst time I only wanted to meet Cedric. Why is it always you who greets me?”


    Hamilton let out a dryugh and opened the nearest door.


    Inside, Russell was seated quietly. The princess looked around, then flicked the switch on the wall. Light poured into the room, and she narrowed her eyes.


    “Is there someone else in here? If Cedric isn’t, I’m leaving. Don’t waste my time.”


    Hamilton had no choice but to lead the princess to the third room.


    The princess peeked in, spotted someone who wasn’t Cedric, and her expression turned cold.


    “What exactly are you trying to pull?”


    She stopped walking altogether. Damon remained seated in the room while Duran was escorted out. The princess turned to Hamilton, eyes narrowing.


    “I want an exnation.”


    Hamilton let out a nervousugh.


    “I’m only asking if it has to be Cedric. Couldn’t you consider one of my other sons? Duran’s an excellent choice, if I may say so.”


    The princess frowned.


    ???????????????? ????????: g????????ν????????????


    “Are you serious right now?”


    The chill in her voice made it clear she wasn’t amused.


    Hamilton kept his smile, though it wavered.


    “I’m just trying to give you more to think about. Marriage is a big decision. It shouldn’t be rushed. You might regret…” Heunched into a long, winding speech.


    The princess didn’t flinch.


    “I’ve already met your sons. I’ve already told you I’m not interested. I’m giving you three days. If I don’t meet Cedric by then, I’ll talk to my father. He’ll take it from there.”


    Without waiting for his response, she turned and got in her car.


    Hamilton stood frozen, fists clenched by his sides.


    “Damn, is Dani really trying to get in my way? Niks is not that different from Cedric.”


    Fueled by frustration, Hamilton stormed into Dani’s office.


    “You always say Cedric belongs to you and that you’re married. Fine. I’ll give you that!” Hamilton’s re was sharp. “But Niks doesn’t. He’s my son. Who gave you the right to take him from me? I want answers, Dani. And I want them now!”
