Chapter 1680:


    Turning slowly, he caught sight of Dani on the balcony across the way. For a moment, their eyes met in the fading evening light.


    Eventually, Hamilton bowed his head, weighed down by defeat and sorrow. “The McCoy family is doomed.”


    Hamilton always assumed Dani would strike back right away, but no move came from her, though.


    If anything, she appeared more rxed than ever.


    That almost made Hamilton think she was not interested in settling any old scores.<fn693f> ???? ????s? ???????s ?? Find1Novel</fn693f>


    Still, could anyone really believe Dani would let things go that easily?


    The explosion had already imed one life and left two others gravely injured. Dani might present a gentle front, but underneath, she was tough and fiercely determined. Anyone willing tomit her father to a mental institution would not hesitate to act against those outside her family.


    Anxiety settled heavily on Hamilton’s shoulders, leaving him tangled in worry.


    There was no doubt that Dani saw through Hamilton’s fears, but she paid no attention to him. Every now and then, she would crack a joke with Brad and Ethan, teasing, “It’s almost a month, isn’t it?”


    Jarvis and Ethan frequently visited Josh’s office.


    Everyst cent they had was tied up in this project, and for them, the stakes could not be higher.


    Most of Dani’s energy went into caring for her pregnancy, but she watched as Brad and Ethan shifted from confidence to nervousness, then to frustration, and eventually to near despair, caught between hope and dread.


    More than once, Brad asked, “There won’t be any issues, right? We’ve put in so much money. Why isn’t there any progress?”


    Ethan narrowed his eyes. “If things were going as they should, we would have already heard about the construction starting. Why has there been no progress at all?”


    Hamilton’s nerves got worse by the day. He was unable to think about anything else. After all, he’d invested arge sum of money too. It wasn’t long before all of Oiscoll felt the tension building.

    People everywhere started searching for any scrap of information about what was really happening.


    Meanwhile, Jules began acting showy and extravagant.


    Suspicion first dawned on Hamilton. “Where do you think Jules got all that money?”


    Brad tried to reassure him. “Don’t worry, Hamilton. Tonight, I’ll have my daughter arrange a dinner with Jules’ kids. I want to get a look at how much is actually in his ounts.”


    “Can you trust that?” Ethan asked.


    Brad gave a confident nod. “Lara, my daughter, is the top student in finance. You can count on her. Let’s just wait and see.”


    Minutes dragged by.


    During dinner, Dani enjoyed her meal while the three McCoy brothers paced the courtyard restlessly, looking as uneasy as caged lions.


    The housekeeper asked, “Should I call them in for dinner?”
