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

Chapter 506:

Alexander left the hospital and headed straight for Elite Lux. His concern for Daniela weighed heavily on his mind, compelling him to remind her of what happened on the rooftop that day, though weeks had passed since the incident.

Upon his arrival at Elite Lux, Alexander found Daniela absorbed in a meeting. As her secretary guided him to Daniela’s office, they passed the glass-walled conference room and Alexander saw Daniela.

She commanded the room from the center, her figure accentuated by the sleek lines of her tailored suit, the epitome of elegance and professionalism. As she projected data onto the screen, her voice resonated with a confidence that captured the undivided attention of the senior executives encircling her. They scribbled notes fervently, hanging on her every word.

At that moment, the secretary interjected, obstructing Alexander’s view as she addressed him.

“Mr. Bennett, this way, please.”

Alexander trailed behind her into a well-appointed office and took a seat as instructed.

“Ms. Harper is tied up in a meeting. She’ll be another hour. Please, make yourself comfortable,” the secretary informed him before leaving the room. Alexander responded with a silent nod, his thoughts drifting back to a time when the roles were reversed, and it was Daniela who had waited for him in his office at Bennett Group.

The office at Elite Lux was an expansive space, marrying functionality with aesthetic appeal through its minimalist design. A gentle floral scent hung in the air, soothing and subtle.

Alexander, aware that Daniela never wore perfume, noticed a flowering gardenia plant perched on a nearby desk.

The secretary, returning briefly, stated, “That was a gift from Mr. Phillips. He tends to it personally, and as you can see, it’s thriving. It seems the environment here nurtures both plants and people alike.”

She smiled, excused herself, and promised to return shortly with a cup of coffee for him.

Time passed slowly, and over an hour later, Daniela emerged from her meeting.

The secretary had already informed her that Alexander was waiting in the office.

“What’s up?” Daniela asked, wasting no time on pleasantries.

“There’s something important I need to tell you,” Alexander replied.

The secretary closed the door behind her, leaving them to their private conversation.

Daniela nodded, methodically signing documents as she conversed.

“Go on.”

“Katrina is scheming behind your back.”

“Is that so?” Daniela responded in a tone that bordered on disinterest.

Alexander’s anxiety was palpable.

“Absolutely. Remember the incident on the rooftop? Katrina led you there. The winds were fierce that day—it’s evident she had ill intentions.”

Briefly lifting her eyes to meet his, Daniela asked, “Are you suggesting she intended for me to fall off the roof?”noveldrama

“Exactly,” Alexander affirmed with a nod.

Returning her gaze to the documents, Daniela asked, “And your basis for this claim?”

Alexander’s expression turned to one of confusion, revealing his inner turmoil.
