NovelGoldChapter 876: Richard's eyes lit up instantly. "Please... if you find anything, letknow." Daniela gave a small nod of acknowledgment. Grateful, Richard bowed several times before making his way to the door. He turned back for one last look at Daniela.
She had grown even more like Brylee-her face bright, her presence effortlessly radiant.

But it didn't.
With that heavy truth weighing on him, Richard walked away in silence.
Suddenly, a strong hand yanked Richard around a corner.
Panic surged through him, and he nearly let out a scream-until he caught sight of the person gripping his arm. His eyes narrowed in disbelief.
"Cedric?" Confusion flickered across Richard's face. "What the hell are you doing? And why are you dressed like this?" Cedric was nothing like before. On TV, he always dressed in a dignified suit, with a cold face that warned strangers to stay away.
But the man standing before him was dressed in black, a hoodie pulled over his head, and a baseball cap on top. His face was deeply hidden under the brim.
If they weren't standing so close, Richard wouldn't have even known it was him.

"Alexander?" Richard's breath hitched as his eyes widened in sheer shock. He gripped the man's arm even harder, his voice cracking with raw disbelief. "Alexander, is that you?" At the sound of his name, Alexander's steps faltered.

"Is it really you? What happened to you? Have you been suffering all this time?” Alexander hesitated, then slowly reached up and pulled off his cap. The dim light revealed his face-identical to Cedric's.
"Dad, trust me. I'll turn everything around. I made mistakes with Daniela before, but once I have wealth M beyond measure, I'll repay her a thousand times over. For now, take this. It won't be long before I chfor good."
Richard's eyes burned red. He nodded repeatedly, his grip tightening around the check. "Alright. Fwill wait NOO for you. You and Daniela will chtogether, and we'll finally live like a family again." Alexander pulled his cap back on and slipped into the shadows, vanishing without a trace.
When he returned, Joyce was still seated, absentmindedly toying with the flowers.
