NovelUpdateChapter 986: "Please, Daniela, have your say," Elyse urged.
Suddenly, Daniela chuckled. Elyse leaned in, her eyes wide with anticipation, hanging on every word that would escape Daniela's lips.

"That very villa you're so fond of has just been acquired for a new thpark venture." At first, a shadow of disappointment crossed Elyse's face, but quickly her eyes lit up. "Acquired? Truly?" Daniela responded with an affirming tilt of her head.
"And what about the compensation? Was it substantial?" Elyse tapped her foot against the ground, consumed by regret. If only she had known about the thpark planned for that area, she never would have parted with her villa at such a bargain price. She could have raked in a small fortune in compensation. Overwhelmed by remorse, Elyse felt tears prickling her eyes.
"Daniela, since that villa was originally mine, don't you think I deserve sof the compensation? Not all, just half-fifty percent, okay?" The villa had fetched a handssum, and now, with the upcoming acquisition, its value was bound to have skyrocketed.
Elyse's eyes gleamed with fervor; she was utterly oblivious to Natalie's predicament behind bars.
"Are you serious?" Daniela countered, skepticism lacing her tone. "By that logic, should the new owner share the thpark's profits with you too? You did get paid when you sold the place, right?" Elyse brushed off the logic with a wave of her hand. "But aren't we family? Shouldn't we be sharing whatever comes our way?" Freshly uploaded on galnovsDaniela offered a wry smile in response, her patience thinning. "And if I hadn't sold the villa and its value had plummeted, would you be offering to absorb the losses with me?" Elyse's laugh was unapologetic, rich with mirth. "Oh, Daniela, you've always had a knack for turning a profit. A small loss here or there means nothing to you—I'm your aunt, after all!" Daniela's laughter followed, lighter, mingling with the lingering tension. She found herself unable to stomach her aunt's greed.

"Very well, I'll instruct the finance team to process the transfer to your account."
A wave of elation crashed over Elyse, propelling her almost into Daniela's arms in an impulsive display of gratitude. However, Daniela forestalled the embrace with a preemptive gesture.
Overflowing with gratitude, Elyse exclaimed, "I'll send over the details of my bank account. Oh, Daniela, I end over the details know you're a good girl!" Nina, fresh off the set, arrived hto find Elyse radiating sheer delight by the doorway.
Only hours before, Elyse had been a picture of contrition on the set; now, she carried herself with an air of triumph, seemingly towering over everyone else. She ostentatiously ignored Nina, sweeping past with a tic flare of disdain. Nina, hardly taken aback, sauntered into the villa.
Catching sight of Daniela, she queried, "So, you've given Elyse the money?"
