LittleNovelChapter 992: Daniela had originally planned to pressure Elyse into revealing her backers, but Nina's explosive revelation had accelerated everything.
Daniela's expression turned cold. "Who?" Ryan's response was steady. "Winslow Flores." Daniela wasn't surprised. She glanced at the time-just one day left before Alexander's promised deadline.

Lillian scoffed. "Alexander is pathetic. He's already being pushed to the sidelines. Winslow pulled out early-he's scared you'll uncover something. He's sharp." Daniela's gaze darkened.
He needed to be cunning. How else could he have stayed under the radar for so long among such powerful figures? "Daniela, are you meeting Alexander tomorrow?" Lillian asked.
Daniela shook her head. “No, that won't be necessary. Initiate a fresh round of acquisitions against all eight of them." Lillian's eyes lit up. "Who's first on the list?" Daniela answered, "Hackett." Winslow was an expert at keeping a low profile-she'd let him stay in the shadows a little longer.

I tried not to reach out, but I'm desperate. What else can I do? Even if Daniela figures it out, I still have to cto you. Your business is booming. You owessupport, don't you?"

Now that Natalie's locked up and Nina won't lift a finger for me, you're the only one left to support me." Winslow's gaze darkened, a dangerous gleam flickering in his eyes. For a brief moment, a lethal intent flashed in his stare. "Look, I don't want trouble-I just want a comfortable life. Five hundred thousand a month should do it," she added.
Winslow's stare turned icy before a slow, unsettling smile spread across his face. "Fine. It's only right I take care of my aunt in her old age."
Pleased with his response, Elyse gave a nod and walked off with the check in hand.
Winslow's gaze followed Elyse as she walked away, the lethal glint in his eyes intensifying. Lately, Daniela had been feeling more exhausted than usual.
