Chapter 279:
“If Daniela can elevate Harper Group to compete with Elite Lux, my remaining forty-nine percent stake could turn
into a gold mine.”
He smiled, basking in the glow of his imagined future riches.
Alexander sat across from Caiden.
“Daniela has climbed her way to the top; she’s clearly capable. Do you really think she’ll accept defeat without a
fight?”
Just moments earlier, Alexander had eavesdropped on the chief financial officer detailing a grim financial reality:
the company was drowning under a debt exceeding seven hundred million dollars. The only lifelines were bank
loans and a handful of clients still loyal to Brylee.
On the outside, Harper Group maintained its majestic facade, yet internally, it was a mere shadow of its former

Alexander found it astonishing how effectively Caiden had managed to run the corporation into the ground.
Engrossed in his thoughts, Alexander's contemplation was interrupted by the buzz of his phone. It was a
message from Caiden containing a list of contacts. Puzzled, Alexander raised his eyebrows at Caiden.
With a sly grin, Caiden responded, “Your tip about Joyce's baby was a lifesaver, and I'm grateful you joined me
here today. That list? It's our last batch of solid clients. Feel free to transition their accounts to Bennett Group.
Tell them | approved the move.”
Relaxed in the glow of the well-lit office, Caiden leisurely sipped his coffee, a subtle smile playing on his lips.
From where he stood, Alexander could see Caiden’s blatant disregard for Daniela, his own daughter. He couldn't
help but remember the day Daniela was a drunken mess, and the Harper family treated her like trash left out on
the curb. Even now, it seemed like the whole world had turned its back on her.
Tucking the list—a generous offering from Caiden—into his pocket, Alexander sensed the tension in the air. By
nine o'clock, whispers of impending doom circulated among the employees. Caiden remained detached, offering
no reassurances. When they questioned him about what to do next, his response was firm and clear.

“Wait for Daniela. If she’s truly capable as they claim, she'll prove herself. I'm eager to see if she possesses her
mother’s unshakable grit in crisis situations!”
As the clock struck ten, the secretary notified them of Daniela’s arrival. Moments later, the door to the CEO's
office burst open. Daniela entered, her stride confident, her presence commanding. She was not alone;
accompanying her were Ryan, Lillian, Cedric, and a lead auditor.
Caiden rose from his seat, his eyes locked on Daniela in disbelief.
“You've brought an auditing team to scrutinize your own father’s company? How dare you!”
Ignoring the tension, Daniela walked over to the executive chair and settled into it with an air of authority.
Behind her, Ryan, Lillian, and Cedric lined up, their faces masks of unwavering confidence.
Daniela began, “We've legally dissolved any familial bonds. This isn’t just a family matter; it’s business. And with
fifty-one percent of the shares in my possession, | have full authority here. | need you to hand over every

leadership of Harper Group.”
This poised declaration took Alexander by surprise. It had never crossed his mind that Daniela might actually
understand the intricacies of business affairs. He had always presumed her accomplishments were more a stroke
of fortune than expertise.
“And what if | refuse? The company’s right here. Take it if you can, or walk away.” A derisive smirk twisted
Caiden’s lips, the frustration of being trapped evident in his expression.
