Chapter 180:
Noticing her tension, Caiden glanced up briefly, his voice calm and unhurried.
“But seriously, what's the hurry? Is it really necessary for Joyce to marry Alexander right now? As long as I'm
behind her, she has the freedom to marry whoever chooses.”
“Why stir up unnecessary ? If you provoke my mother and it affects her health, it'll becthe talk of the
town. And trust me, I'd be the subject of ridicule.”
He shrugged, a sly smirk tugging at the corner of his mouth.
“Not that public opinion bothers me. | can handle a bit of slander, but it would crushto hear them speak ill of
you. Let’s hold off for now. Just focus on keeping my mom happy. If she’s content, she’ll approve anything you
propose. Getting the assets into Joyce's nwon't be a problem—it’s all in the family anyway.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtKatrina was on the verge of speaking out when Caiden silenced her, guiding her towards the door.
“Enough of this, Katrina. Stop being so stubborn. My mother is here and you've barely said a word to her. How do
you expect her to warm up to you? Go and spend stwith her.”
Caiden brushed her off with a few words and returned to his game.
With a sigh of resignation, Katrina headed to Peyton's room, determined to make a good impression on her
mother-in-law. She diligently massaged Peyton's legs, kneaded her shoulders, and even fetched a basin of water
for her to soak her feet.
However, before Katrina could shift the conversation towards her grievances about Daniela, Peyton interrupted
with a yawn, declaring her exhaustion and desire to retire for the night.

Frustrated, Katrina retreated to her own room, only to discover Caiden already deep in sleep.
Fuming with irritation, she stepped onto the balcony, her fingers trembling as she dialed Richard's number.
Richard, always pragmatic, wasted no tin cutting to the chase. He stated that Joyce had to be officially
declared the heiress to the Harper family fortune before any wedding plans could proceed. Why would the
Bennett family invest in raising another man’s child if Joyce wasn’t acknowledged as the heiress?
The conversation left Katrina even more agitated. Just then, Joyce entered the room, visibly distressed.
“Mom, why won't Dad transfer the family assets to me? Is he still thinking about fixing things with Daniela?”
“He’s not,” Katrina declared with unwavering certainty.
“Your father holds my opinions in the highest regard. He's merely acting the part of the devoted son now
because that old hag is around. Do you forget? She opposed our marriage initially, yet here | am.”
Joyce's anxiety seemed to dissipate at Katrina's assertive words. Later, she attempted to contact Alexander
before retiring for the night, but received no response.
The following morning, the Harper family household was engulfed in chaos. Katrina felt completely swamped,
rushing around in a frenzy to tackle the endless demands of the day.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn the midst of this turmoil, Peyton took Caiden aside into the garden.
“You need to take Daniela back into our family.”
Caiden, unexpectedly compliant, simply nodded.
“Alright.”
