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

Chapter 726:

“Really? She cared so much about my feelings that she never had a child with you all these years?”

Caiden nodded, his desperation palpable.

“Yes.”

“Ah, well, that’s certainly love.”

Just as Caiden began to smile, Daniela’s voice, full of confusion, cut through the moment.

“Then why did she treat me so badly? You knew how she treated me, didn’t you?”

In the bitter cold, Daniela was left without proper clothes. In the burning heat of summer, she was sent to pull weeds in the garden. Every lesson a young girl should have learned about her body, Daniela had to face on her own, anxious and overwhelmed. That wasn’t love—not even close.

The smile on Caiden’s face faltered, his expression stiffening as Daniela’s words sank in.

“Do you know why Katrina never had a child with you?” Daniela picked up a piece of paper from the table behind her.

“Look at this. After Joyce was born, Katrina suffered abuse from her ex-husband and had her uterus removed years ago.”

The revelation hit Caiden like a blow to the head, leaving him utterly stunned. Caiden tried to laugh, but the sound wouldn’t come. He stared at her with wide, confused eyes for a long time before managing to say, “You’re lying to me.”

Daniela didn’t need to say more. She knew the truth had already taken root in Caiden’s mind.

Even if he didn’t believe her, it made no difference. Her mother didn’t need Caiden’s hollow remorse. His regret held no weight for either of them.

“Enough of this. Next question. When you met my mother, someone kept feeding you information. What did they want from you? What deal did you make?”

Caiden slowly raised his head from the fog of confusion, his chest tightening with every breath. After a long silence, he finally choked out, “No. I didn’t do anything. They didn’t ask for anything… Ah!” The blade sank deep into his thigh again.

But this time, Daniela didn’t pull the knife away immediately. Instead, she leaned in closer, her gaze fixed on him.

As Caiden cried out in agony, she began to twist the blade slowly, driving it deeper into his wound.

Caiden gasped, his body wracked with pain, but Daniela’s expression remained unchanged, a cold smile playing on her lips.

“Relax. I’m trained in anatomy. I’ll make sure every cut is exact and won’t kill you.

You’ll survive.”

Veins popped from Caiden’s forehead and neck as his body trembled uncontrollably. He struggled to breathe, gasping for air with each desperate inhale.

Never before had he felt such a strong urge to end his own life.

Daniela seemed completely unaware of the tension.

A smile crept across her face as she turned to Caiden.

“You always say that you’re my father and that I share your blood. The more I think about it, the more it makes sense. So, here’s an idea. What if I drain every drop of blood from your body? That way, the blood coursing through me won’t be so tainted. Do you think?”noveldrama

Caiden instinctively leaned back, shocked by her words. He stared at Daniela in disbelief, thinking she must have lost her mind. Once, she had been a bright little girl, clinging to his leg and begging for his affection. But now, standing before him, was something unrecognizable, a ghostly figure—cold, detached, and utterly different.
