LittleNovelChapter 993: The usual sight of Lillian gaming in the living room was missing; only Josie was bustling in the kitchen.
Daniela grabbed a glass of water while Josie approached with a plate of fruit.
"Cedric mentioned he had a cross-border meeting this morning but will be back in tfor lunch. Nina got a call this morning, and Lillian went with her.

A young woman needed the chance to explore the world.
As Daniela finished browsing the university details, the villa door burst open.
Lillian was the first to step in. "Daniela." Daniela barely had tto react before Lillian dropped the bombshell. "Elyse died." Daniela paused, then raised her eyes to meet Lillian's. "Elyse is dead?" Lillian nodded affirmatively. "Nina is parking the car. We were at the police station this morning and saw the body. It was indeed Elyse. The police told us she was found by the river, discovered by an early morning fisherman who then reported it." Daniela remained silent for a moment.
Nina walked into the room and, seeing Daniela, offered a gentle smile. "Daniela, I'm okay. I actually find the irony of how this ended quite hilarious. Elyse spent her life plotting against everyone, and now to die like this-it's like poetic justice." Daniela asked, "Did the police have any idea who was responsible?" Lillian shook her head in response.
Nina excused herself and went back to her room.
Daniela furrowed her brow, and Lillian suggested, "Maybe it was Winslow." Daniela fell silent again, then said, "I didn't expect him to move so swiftly and decisively!" It was so sudden. Elyse had just reached out to him, and then Winslow took her life.
What was the rush? Was it a deep, dark secret, or something else at play? Daniela arranged a simple funeral for Elyse and quickly completed all necessary ceremonies. She had also finalized arrangements with an overseas school that was ready to accept Nina.

Natalie stared intently at Daniela m across the table. "Did you. have a hand in this?"
Daniela responded with a smile. "Did you ask to seejust to ask that? It ve seems rather pointless."
Natalie retorted, "Daniela, do you think you've won? No! This isn't over. Danger Jurks even in tranquility. You are destined for a tragic end like my mother!"
