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

Chapter 510:

He tightened his embrace, as if fearing she could vanish into thin air.

After a pause, Cedric sighed deeply.

“Let’s wrap up our affairs swiftly, shall we?”

Daniela nodded and reciprocated his embrace.

Once they cleared their current hurdles, she hoped to give Cedric two children, adding branches to his family tree.

Their intimate moment was shattered by a knock at the office door.

Daniela and Cedric reluctantly parted. Cedric stole a quick kiss and gently squeezed her waist before stepping back.

“Come in,” Daniela called.

Katrina burst into the room, her entrance so frantic she nearly tripped over her own feet.

“Daniela, you must rescue Joyce this time!”

Katrina collapsed to her knees, clutching desperately at Daniela’s skirt.

“Joyce has thrown herself into that venture, and now, with Milo vanished with all the money, she’s the one in the crosshairs. The company owes a hundred million, and they’re threatening her life if she can’t settle the debts. Daniela, I implore you. She’s your stepsister.

You can’t just stand by and watch her perish!”

Daniela looked down at Katrina, who was groveling on the floor. She recalled the opportunity Alexander had unwittingly disrupted, now seemingly returned to her. A sly smirk crossed her face.

“I can’t help her.”noveldrama

Katrina’s voice quivered as she remained kneeling.

“I know I’ve wronged you in the past. I was harsh, acting out of fear of not being accepted by you after marrying your father. Daniela, it was never my intention. I’m truly sorry.”

Katrina bowed her head repeatedly, each nod echoing in the tense silence of the room.

Daniela observed her with a frosty detachment.

“I acknowledge my mistakes, Daniela. Just give me a chance to make things right. Please, save Joyce. She’s still so young. If you turn your back now, she might not survive this.”

Katrina’s plea rasped with desperation, but Daniela remained stoic in her chair.

After what seemed like an eternity, Katrina realized her pleas were in vain. She wiped away her tears, standing defiantly.

“Daniela, you won’t lift a finger for Joyce, will you?”

Daniela remained silent, her expression chillingly indifferent.

“Very well! If that’s how it is, don’t blame me for what happens next!” Katrina pulled out her phone and called Caiden.

“You wanted to sever ties with Joyce, right? Well, come home immediately, Caiden. I want a divorce!” With that, Katrina ended the call abruptly.

She turned back to Daniela, her voice steel-clad.

“I’m divorcing Caiden, and I’m claiming half of the Harper family’s fortune!”

Daniela let out a light laugh, spreading her hands.

“Sure, if you think you can actually lay claim to it, by all means, try!”

On that day, Caiden returned from abroad.
