Chapter 1498:
Nikolas froze for a moment, caught off guard.
He stared at Daniela in disbelief, while she remained perfectly calm and collected. Between his shock and her
steady composure, it was hard to say who truly had their vulnerability exposed.
“You know?” Nikolas asked, eyes wide with surprise as he fixed his gaze on her. Daniela nodded calmly.
“If you're going to make a move, hurry up. My lunch break’s nearly over, and if I'm late, Cedric will clooking
for me,” she said, taking a casual sip of water.
Nikolas looked confused.
“Aren’t you scared of blood? You know I'm onto your weakness, yet you still chere? Aren't you afraid of what
| might do?”
Until then, Nikolas hadn’t made up his mind. He couldn’t deny he'd long coveted McCoy Group and naturally saw
himself as the rightful heir.
He was ready to dedicate his entire life to achieving that. That had always been his mindset, unwavering. Yet

It felt almost absurd. He actually faltered.
He had only spent less than two months with Daniela and the others, but already, he found himself questioning
whether the “put interests first” rule he'd lived by for years was really the right path.
The blood bag lay tucked in his pocket, yet standing face-to-face with Daniela, a wave of panic washed over him,
freezing his every move.
Daniela propped her chin on her hand, studying his face carefully.
“Opportunities like this don’t caround often. Are you really going to let it slip by?” she asked.
Cedric hadn’t shown up, nor had Carol followed. Just as Daniela said, this was the perfect opportunity for Nikolas.
Still, he stood frozen, fists tight, eyes unfocused.

Daniela tapped Nikolas’ chest where the blood bag was tucked away.
“Just so you know, it doesn’t last forever. After three days, it loses its potency. If I'm not mistaken, today’s the
third day. If you don’t act now, it'll be useless.”
She waited a moment longer. Nikolas’ face flushed deep red, his thoughts tangled in chaos. Daniela observed
him quietly, noticing he still made no move.
She rose and said, “If you're not going to do anything, I'll be heading back.” Without another word, she walked
toward the door.
Just before she reached it, Nikolas suddenly called out, “Why?” Daniela stopped and looked back at him,
confusion clear in her eyes.
“You knew all along what | planned?

Daniela chuckled at his words.
“Do you think | would risk my life just

Nikolas frowned, bewildered.
“Then why? You know my ambitions,
