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

Chapter 455:

Keith laughed.

“What? Do you still have feelings for her?”

“Isn’t it normal for me to have feelings?” Alexander replied, taking a sip of his drink, his eyes fixed on Daniela.

“She’s my ex-wife.”

Keith let out a short chuckle.

“The way you’re talking, it’s like she’s still your wife, not your ex. But then again, who wouldn’t be drawn to someone like Daniela? If you’re serious about it, you’d better make a move before someone else does.”

Alexander raised an eyebrow, his curiosity getting the better of him.

“What exactly are you getting at?”

“Everyone used to believe Daniela and Cedric were a couple. So even if they had feelings for her, they didn’t dare approach Daniela. But now that it’s clear Cedric prefers men, the chance is wide open. Now everyone’s itching to make their move. Even if they’re not genuinely interested in her, chasing after Daniela’s fortune is hardly a poor choice.”

At those words, Alexander’s fingers tightened around his glass.

Just as he was about to reply, he noticed two men with drinks heading in Daniela’s direction.

His expression hardened, and without another thought, he made his way downstairs.

Joyce made her entrance, fashionably late, just in time to witness the whole scene unfold.

Katrina leaned in and whispered to her, “After all this time, you still haven’t won over Alexander?”

Joyce clenched her teeth in frustration.

“He doesn’t have feelings for me. He doesn’t like me. What am I supposed to do?”

Katrina hesitated, then spoke.

“If you really can’t keep a man’s heart, you’ll have to learn how to make the best of your circumstances.”

Joyce turned her head sharply, her eyes cold and calculating.noveldrama

“You mean…?”

Katrina urged, “Seize half of Bennett Group’s assets. Divorce Alexander.”

Momentarily, Joyce’s expression tightened as she hesitated.

“Being tough is sometimes necessary for a woman to get what she deserves. If you hesitate now, Alexander will start hiding his assets.

You could end up with nothing. Imagine him using what should have been yours to charm Daniela. Could you live with that?”

Joyce’s hands balled into fists. She could not. Her discontent, however, was more profound.

Alexander had once been fond of her, so what had caused him to stop noticing her all of a sudden?

He had run into the fire to rescue her instead of Daniela. These actions had convinced her of Alexander’s genuine affection.

But when had his attentiveness weakened?

When had Alexander started to disregard her?

Was it her assertiveness that repelled him?

No man appreciated being forced.
