Chapter 73:
“Miss Harper, Joyce Holt attended the auction today and made outrageous bids on almost everything. But when
it ctto pay, she refused. We were on the verge of calling the police, but she claimed to be your sister.
We're unsure how to proceed. What do you want us to do?”
Daniela’s brow furrowed as frustration took over. Without a second thought, she replied, “Call the police.”
That evening, just as Daniela had gotten hand was on her way upstairs to relax, loud, angry knocking on
the door broke the silence.
Josie moved toward the door to open it. Before she had a chance to speak, Katrina barged in, her hand held high
as she stormed past Josie.
“Daniela! How could you be so cruel and heartless? Is it really necessary to ruin Joyce's life like this?”
Daniela, worried that her new housekeeper might get dragged into the chaos, shot Josie a quick glance, silently

Katrina was at the front, with Caiden right behind her, and Alexander lingering at the back.
Before stepping into the room, Caiden scanned the space, only relaxing once he was sure Daniela was alone. He
straightened up, adopting a forced air of authority.
“Daniela, how long do you plan to drag this out?”

“So, you storm into my house, stand here in my space, and then questionabout how long I'm going to keep
this up? Don’t you think that’s a bit much?”
Katrina broke down into exaggerated tears, wailing in sorrow.
“Daniela, the police called us. They said it was your people who reported Joyce. That's your sister! How could
you be so heartless?”
Through her sobs, Katrina turned to Alexander.
“Alexander, do you see it now? Do you see how cruel Daniela is? Thank God you divorced her! Can you imagine
the kind of chaos she would've caused your family if you'd stayed with her?”
Daniela spoke in a steady, measured tone, her face showing no emotion.
“She showed up at the auction, placed bids on just about everything, and then refused to pay for any of it. She's
the one who caused this whole situation. So tell me, how is that my problem?”
“This is your domain! So what if your sister wanted to get a few things? Isn't it just natural for sisters to share
every now and then? You're being ridiculous, Daniela! Calling the cops on your own sister? Do you have any
shat all?” Katrina shot back, her voice growing louder with anger.
Daniela let out a mocking laugh.
“Share a few things? Joyce didn’t bid on just a few items. She went for over 20 high-end pieces. The total was
$230 million. If that's what she expects from me, | simply can’t do it. But since you're so willing to help, why
don’t you cover it? As her mother, isn’t it your job to take care of her?”

Katrina stiffened, her face flushing as she searched for something to say.
Caiden’s frown deepened further. He wasn't interested in the back-and-forth or the details of who was right. He
interrupted the tension with a sharp, commanding voice.
“Daniela, it's late. Enough of this! Call the police and get your sister out.”
