Chapter 1142:
She maintained her composure, casting a quick, discreet glance at Caiden.
He appeared detached, seemingly oblivious to her presence.
After a brief silence, Daniela headed toward the stairs. From the landing, she called out, "Tasha."
From the kitchen, Tasha appeared, wiping her hands. "Yes? What do you need?"
"Could you come with me for a second?" Daniela requested.
Tasha ascended the stairs, and Daniela entered her bedroom, washed her face, and then asked, "There used to be a small clay figurine by the TV stand in the living room. It seems to be missing today."
At Daniela's words, a look of alarm swept over Tasha's face.
The clay figurine made a lasting impression on Tasha because it was known to be extremely valuable.
Brylee had originally bought it at an auction to give to Daniela.
At that time, it was sold at auction for more than 50 million dollars.
Tasha always took extra care when cleaning around the figurine, fearful of accidentally damaging it.
Whenever Jack expressed a desire to play with it, Joyce would firmly remind him that it was a special gift from Daniela's mother and off-limits to him.
"This morning, I saw it still in front of the TV while I was cleaning," Tasha said, rushing downstairs.
After a brief inspection, she returned upstairs, her face ashen. "It really is missing."
Tasha was visibly distressed. "I didn't take it. Please believe me."
Understanding the figurine's high value, she was understandably frightened.

"I believe you," Daniela said gently. "Don't worry. It seems we have a thief among us. I'll figure out a way to catch them. Let me know when the house will be empty, and I'll arrange for someone to install some hidden security cameras. I want to see who's secretly taking things."
Tasha nodded in agreement. "Understood."
As Tasha returned downstairs and entered the kitchen, Caiden observed her from the sofa.
When Daniela came downstairs, Caiden asked, "What were you and Tasha discussing upstairs?"
Daniela didn't respond but proceeded to pour herself a glass of water, causing Caiden's brow to furrow slightly.
