?Chapter 1194:
Niks’s eyes darted nervously. “He figured it out on his own.”
Dani looked skeptical as she asked, “How did he figure it out?”
Niks couldn’t admit that he had sent Ghost to kill Cedric, only for the n to backfire disastrously. That would make him look both vicious and ipetent.
“I might’ve identally slipped up during a phone call home, and he overheard. But what’s with that look? The McCoy name is something people dream of. Why do you look so disgusted? You really think being a McCoy is shameful?”
Niks tried to go on the offensive, hoping to shift the focus away from himself.
But Dani leveled a cold, unblinking stare at him, her voice low and threatening. “If I find out you told him, you’ll regret it.”
Niks was left speechless.
Dani returned home with her dog, collected a suitcase from Tasha at the door, and hurled it outside without a word. The door mmed shut with a loud, deafening bang.
Niks flinched at the sound. After a long pause, he finally snapped, his anger boiling over. “Who the hell does she think she is, throwing a tantrum like that?”
Fuming, Niks turned to Alexander, rolled his eyes dramatically, then turned his gaze to Cedric. “Did you see Dani’s attitude? Unbelievable! Is this how she treats a McCoy? She threw my stuff out! Cedric, you’re a man. Go in there and tell Dani to stop giving me the cold shoulder, or you’ll end things with her!”
Cedric chuckled, clearly amused, as if he enjoyed indulging Dani’s arrogance. “As long as she doesn’t dump me, I don’t have the heart to break up with her,” he said, then turned and walked into the house.
Niks nted his hands on his hips and seethed with anger as he spun around to unleash his frustration on Alexander. “Alexander, look at this mess you’ve created! You were always bragging about how close you were with Dani. Well, she doesn’t give a damn about you!”
Frustrated, Niks crouched, grabbed the luggage from the ground, and kicked the door open forcefully.

Before entering, he warned Alexander, “Don’t follow me in! And don’te looking for me again!” Then Niks headed inside.
Alexander stood frozen, his mind swirling with the flood of information that had just hit him all at once.
What had Niks just said? Wait, who was a McCoy? Cedric? It was utterly incredulous!
A chill ran through Alexander. He had just begun to feel a sense of superiority and started facing Cedric without the weight of his former inferiority.
How had Cedric suddenly turned into a McCoy? Moreover, he was Niks’ brother?
Cedric was Hamilton’s son?
Did that mean Cedric had a legitimate im to the McCoy family fortune?
In other words, he could be the richest man in the world without even lifting a finger?
Alexander stood there, shell-shocked.
“No wonder Dani kept ignoring me, even after losing her memories. It’s because of Cedric’s identity,” he muttered.
