Rejected No More: I Am Way Out Of Your League, Darling!

Chapter 554:

“I’ve warned you before about Katrina; she’s dangerous.”

“Desperate times lead to desperate measures. Why didn’t you listen?”

His voice was questioning, yet his gentle tone carried more warmth than accusation, sounding almost tender.

Daniela’s expression immediately contorted in disgust, as if she had just tasted something foul. She stepped back.

Her defensive stance saddened Alexander.

“Daniela, I mean no harm. I’m merely here to remind you. There are many ways to seek revenge, but you opted for the harshest one. Why choose such a path? You’re the CEO of Elite Lux now.

Your mother passed away long ago. Why allow someone from your past to spoil your promising future? You know there’s more to life than vengeance. Think about the family and children you once dreamed of, or the hobbies that bring you joy. These could help you overcome your resentment. Daniela, perhaps you could give me a chance to help you let go of this hatred.

You have to trust me now.”

Alexander’s sincere confession was heartfelt.

Unbeknownst to them, someone recorded the entire exchange on camera.

At that moment, Daniela was bathed in the morning sunlight.

She had never fully grasped the concept of love. She thought she liked Cedric, but couldn’t pinpoint exactly what it was about him.

However, as she gazed at Alexander now, her understanding suddenly clicked into place.noveldrama

She offered a smile, yet her eyes remained cold as she met Alexander’s look.

“I can’t believe how blind I was before.”

Alexander’s confident expression wavered for a moment.

“Alexander, we’re fundamentally different.

You’re fixated on power and wealth. To you, they are more important than any personal connection. When Katrina brought me to the rooftop, you were fully aware of what was unfolding.

Yet, you were too frightened to intervene.

You maintained your distance, feigning concern for me.

You said all the right things but never left your comfort zone.”

At her accusation, Alexander’s sense of alarm intensified, and he started to desperately defend himself.

But Daniela stopped him with a raised hand, her tone steady.

“I know what you’re going to say, but I don’t base my judgments on words alone. Actions are what count. Alexander, I don’t wish to dwell on the past, and to be honest, I see no role for you in my future. Can we agree on that?”

Daniela sought someone who would be unwaveringly loyal, ready to face any ordeal alongside her, not a slick deceiver who offered comforting words without genuine intent.

Alexander’s hopes crumbled instantly.

He stood immobilized, his facade dismantled. His instinct was to refute everything.

But how could he possibly deny it?

Overwhelmed, he struggled to maintain his poise, yet he remained silent.

Daniela had seen straight through him.

She saw his selfishness and his smooth, misleading words. He was like a man laid bare, his flaws completely exposed.

He was utterly humiliated.
