Chapter 95:
Cedric watched the exchange, his eyes darkening as he viewed the vase.
“It’s already dirty,” he declared, his disdain palpable.
The manager paused, his bewilderment plain on his face.
“Sorry. What did you say?”
Cedric offered no further explanation.
“Just get rid of it,” he stated dismissively.
In his eyes, anything Katrina defiled with her touch was as good as garbage, a disgrace to Daniela’s name.
He entered the elevator without another word, his expression unreadable, yet his revulsion was clear. Katrina
made a half-hearted attempt to reach out, to halt his departure, but the elevator doors sealed shut before she
could utter a single plea.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe building manager exhaled a deep, tired sigh and ambled over to the trash can. With a resonant clang, he
dumped the vase into it without a second thought.
Katrina's eyes stretched wide in shock. Casting aside any semblance of composure, she dashed to the trash can
and leaned over, her arms plunging in to rescue the vase.
Cradling it protectively, she muttered in disbelief, “How could anyone toss away such a stunning vase? It's worth
a fortune! Oh, no—look, there's a chip on the rim!”
Caiden and Joyce stood by, utterly mortified, their cheeks burning with embarrassment as they observed
Katrina's frantic actions.
Behind them, Joyce's friends exchanged glances, their eyes wide with shock, their whispers intensifying as they
struggled to mask their astonishment.

“This is utterly disgraceful.”
“She has completely tarnished the image of every dignified lady! Can you believe Cedric refused the vase just
because she handled it, and now she’s scavenging it from the garbage? Did you see the desperation in her
actions?”
“Truly, though, it’s hardly shocking. | heard that Katrina only secured her place in the Harper family after
Daniela’s mother passed away. Before that, she was merely a humble villager, busying herself with pickling
vegetables. It seems she employed every cunning tactic available to seduce Daniela’s father.”
“All that money, and she still can’t shake off the pitiful aura of someone who'll grovel for scraps.”
“Indeed, coming from modest means is no fault of her own. But where is her sense of pride? Has she no self-
respect at all?”
“Self-respect? Please. It's doubtful Katrina even understands the concept. | heard that right after Daniela’s
mother died, Katrina moved in. Driven by fear of missing her chance at wealth, she disregarded how blatantly
disgraceful it appeared. A woman of her sort—do you really think she possesses any self-respect?”
As Jerry Oliver took the lead with the group in tow, their footsteps reverberated through the corridor,
accompanied by a low murmur of whispers that filled the air with a sense of unease.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKatrina, gripping the vase, struggled to maintain her composure. A pulsing headache exacerbated her growing
irritation, yet she managed to suppress the rising storm within her.
She glanced back to check on her daughter, only to see her engaged in light-hearted conversation with a friend,
seemingly oblivious to the tension around them.
With a deep breath, Katrina tightened her eyes shut, mentally coaxing herself to remain calm and not to
succumb to the provocation of the youngsters’ carefree disregard.
As the elevator moved down through the floors, Caiden’s previously easy smile slowly dissolved into a look of
concern. A troubling premonition gnawed at him, prompting him to finally break the silence.
