Chapter 855: Elite Lux hadn't welcomed a newborn in ages.

Cedric suddenly becobsessed with health.

He exercised five times a week, cut out strong flavors, took supplements, and gave up alcohol. He never smoked, but now he banned it at Phillips Group. Even at social events, he refused to let others smoke near him, sipping soup while they toasted with drinks.

Everyone was stunned. His secretary finally explained, “Mr. Phillips is preparing for a baby. Phillips Group might soon have an heir!" Everyone was in disbelief.

They stared at the secretary. "His wife is the one having a baby, not him. Why is he acting like he's the one getting pregnant?" Soon, all of Olisvine knew Cedric and Daniela were trying for a baby.

At first, Daniela was confused. Why did everyone choose such bland meals during meetings? When she questioned them, her partners smiled and said, "Before the meal, your husband..." Specifically, they had told us not to urge you to drink or eat strong-flavored food since you're preparing for a baby." As Daniela sat in silence, the waiter arrived with warm milk. "Mr. Phillips said you should drink this before your meal." And so, the entire city knew-Cedric was obsessed with having a baby. Meanwhile, Doug's face twisted with rage. "Joyce, are you playing games with me? You swore Daniela and Cedric were divorcing! Now the whole city knows Daniela is expecting! Listen up, I have no interest in pregnant women!" Joyce, equally annoyed and confused, tried to make sense of it all.

Alexander had assured her Daniela liked him, so how...? Suddenly, Doug slapped her across the face.

The best stories are at gVinovs._om Joyce froze, shocked. The next moment, Doug's fingers wrapped around her throat, his chilling voice sinking into her ears. "Joyce, listen carefully. If you trick me, you're dead! You have a week. Get Daniela into my bed, or you're done being my wife!" With that, Doug threw Joyce onto the floor like discarded trash.

Fuming, Joyce stormed off to Alexander. She slapped him hard across the face. "You swore you had Daniela under control! Now she's going to have Cedric's baby! Doug set a strict deadline. If I fail to get Daniela in his bed this week, I'm dead! What should I do?" Red fingerprints marked Alexander's cheek. His stare grew cold, a flicker of lethal intent flashing in his eyes, though it quickly vanished.

Joyce sank into a chair, scowling. "Seems like Doug's days are numbered. Got any plans?" Alexander adjusted his glasses. “Hasn't Natalie always craved Doug? Drug him, let him die in her bed, and no one will suspect a thing." Joyce's eyes gleamed at the idea.

Alexander watched her rush off, his expression hardening.

He desired Doug's wealth.

He craved Daniela too.

Joyce had always been his greatest shame. Only her death could erase it e forever.N

Getting rid of Doug wasn't a difficult challenge. Doug, a man driven by intense sexual desire, @uld easily be manipulated. Simp manipulated. Simply increasing the dose of his medication before a night with a woman would be enough to get the job done.

The real issue, however, lay in the grudge burning inside Joyce. That snake, Natalie! How dare she try to steatherman, steal her man, fantasizing about marrying Doug, taking everything Joyce had built?
