LittleNovelChapter 1191:
Cedric picked up the now-full glass. “What you're after isn’t what | want. Leave, or you'll regret it.”
Without another word, he carried the glass of juice out.
Nikolas remained frozen in the kitchen.
Cedric handed the juice to Daniela, a soft smile playing on his lips as he brushed a stray strand of her hair
behind her ear.
From across the room, he suddenly turned, his dark, brooding eyes locking onto Nikolas’.
In that moment, Nikolas’ heart lurched.
Only when Cedric looked away did the pressure in Nikolas’ chest begin to ease.
He exhaled sharply, the unease still clinging to him.
Once Daniela finished her juice, Cedric retrieved the empty glass and returned to the kitchen.
Frustrated by his own reaction, Nikolas scoffed. “Cedric, with all your talent, why would you suppress your
potential just to serve under a woman?”
He simply couldn't comprehend it. His father always said men were ruled by ambition—a real man wouldn't let
love stand in his way.

Cedric remained silent, as though explaining would be pointless—Nikolas simply wouldn't get it.
Nikolas hesitated, reluctant to voice it, but sthings couldn't be ignored. “You've known about your identity
for a long time, haven't you?”
Cedric rinsed the glass with deliberate care, water running over his long fingers. “Hard not to. | didn’t even have
to check to know who Ghost reports to.”
Regret churned inside Nikolas. “Then what's your angle? You can’t tellyou're not tempted by the McCoy

Cedric’s stare was icy. “My nis Phillips, not McCoy.”
Nikolas blinked, caught off guard. “You really believe that?”
Cedric let out a low chuckle. “Naturally. But if you keep pushing me, | won't mind taking the McCoy empire for
myself.”
Nikolas wetted his lips. “I'm not looking for a fight, Cedric.”
“Oh? Really?” Cedric set the glass on the rack, his dark gaze locking onto Nikolas. “Then tell me—who’s your new
secretary?”
Nikolas was seething with anger. The
disbelief was evident. What sort of

Cedric scoffed, “Try bringing Alexander home, and you'll regret it.” Then he strode out, the glass door slamming
shut behind him.
Nikolas was left standing there, boiling with rage. What was the deal with these people? Why did they feel the
need to threaten him?
Nikolas yelled after the departing
