Chapter 833: Cedric's eyes widened in surprise. “Is she really unwell?" Those words triggered a strong wave of guilt in Cedric, clenching his heart tightly. In a soft voice, he pleaded with Ryan, "Please, letin. I'll be quiet, I promise. Just a quick look. I won't leave until I'm sure she's okay." Ryan realized that even if Cedric saw Daniela, he wouldn't be able to leave reassured.
He glanced briefly at Lillian.
Without hesitation, Lillian grabbed a chair and shoved it against the door. "Fine. If you're determined to get in, you'll have to go over my dead body!" Ryan understood then that Lillian was truly enraged.
Typically carefree, Lillian rarely took matters to heart, except when they crossed a critical line. And that line was Daniela's well-being.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFrom Lillian's perspective, Daniela's depression had been kept under control up until now. Despite Alexander's previous actions, Daniela had managed to stay calm.
However, Cedric had a unique impact on Daniela's emotional well-being.
This made Lillian realize Cedric was dangerous.
She was determined to remove his influence as soon as possible.
Cedric was completely overwhelmed. He didn't dare to call Daniela, worried he might disturb her rest, leaving him confused and uncertain about his next steps. "Ryan, I can stay here. Just tell me, what's wrong with her? I have the top doctors ready to help," Cedric pleaded, his voice filled with urgency.
Before Ryan could answer, Lillian interjected, "There's no need for that. We've got a doctor already." 1@F€$† ¢#4PT€®$ 1# gąlCedric frowned. “You mean Linden? I don't trust him. I have the country's best doctors at my disposal. If you won't letsee her, at least allow my doctors to wait outside. Should Daniela feel ill again, couldn't they at least examine her?" Linden, overhearing this from the side, felt a sting of insult.
He was about to respond when Ryan gave him a stern look.
The look delivered a clear message. "We can judge our own, but outsiders shouldn't," his glare said.
Suppressing his response, Linden stepped back, his frustration clear.
Cedric had already contacted his medical team. When the doctors arrived, they positioned themselves at the entrance, but Lillian forbade them from entering.

Lillian fixed Cedric with a frosty gaze. "Aren't you content with the spectacle you've caused already? Cedric, continuing this way will only lead to disaster." Seeing the swarm of eager reporters, Cedric sighed and retreated to his car. But he didn't drive away. Instead, he instructed his driver to circle the block until the crowd thinned out. When the area was clear, he returned and parked near the now peaceful entrance. Only the security guards remained.
Approaching one of the guards, Cedric's secretary said anxiously, "Dude, we mean no Xarm. Mr. Phillips is really concerned. We're not here to cause trouble. Can you tell us how Daniela is? Is she alright?"
The guard looked at Cedric, then back at the secretary, and nodded. "She was a bit unwell earlier, but it' didn't look serious. The doctor checked her, and Lillian seemed relieved when he left. So, I think it's nothing to worry about." Cedric nodded in relief and stepped back.
He looked up, his eyes fixed on the dark windows of Daniela's room.
Pulling out an envelope with cash inside, Cedric offered it to the om security chief. "Look no hard franything changes tonight, feelings. If please letknow. My doctors are ready to help."
