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

Chapter 529:

“Why are you letting her back in? Haven’t we endured enough humiliation?”

Caiden’s anger was unmistakable, and Daniela could see it clearly in his expression. However, she remained unfazed, her voice steady as she replied, “You were right about one thing earlier. This villa belonged to my mother.

You have the right to throw people out, and I have the right to let them in. When you brought people in without consulting me, it only seems fair I don’t need your permission now.”

Caiden’s frown deepened. Daniela flashed a faint smile, gazing down at Caiden.

“If I wanted, I could even throw you out.”

Joyce’s face brightened upon hearing Daniela’s audacious words. Her smug expression returned, her confidence restored. Some people never seemed to learn their lesson. Caiden clenched his teeth, his eyes following Joyce as she lugged her suitcase upstairs.

When the room fell silent, Caiden spoke again.

“Daniela, what’s your game? You clearly can’t stand them, yet you won’t let them leave. What’s your point?”

Daniela’s expression remained unchanged, her calm demeanor unwavering.

“Daniela, I know them. When backed into a corner, they’ll fight back,” he added.

“Really? Let them try. I’m curious to see just how far they’ll push it.” Daniela chuckled coldly. She was eager to see what desperate moves Katrina and Joyce would make next.

Caiden clenched his jaw tightly. He felt a deep, genuine fear of Daniela now—far more than he’d ever feared angering Brylee. With Brylee, he could smooth things over and return to his usual carefree self once her temper passed. But Daniela was entirely different. She was firm and unrelenting in her stance. She was immune to both soft and hard tactics. Caiden now lived with a constant, gnawing fear that Daniela might toss him out of the villa at any moment.

“Whatever Katrina and her daughter do, it has nothing to do with me. I just want to stay out of it. If they stir up any trouble, don’t blame me,” he said. Daniela could see the fear in him. The emptiness of his pockets and the constant uncertainty were indeed a slow, agonizing torment. She didn’t offer a single comforting word. Instead, she let him worry day after day, believing that was the only way he could atone for his sins.

Early that morning, Joyce filled a thermos with breakfast the maid had prepared and set off to visit Katrina at the hospital. As she was leaving, she noticed Caiden but ignored him. Caiden’s expression darkened as he spat disdainfully at her retreating figure, regretting everything more than ever.

The whispers of rumors people had spread behind his back echoed in his mind.

“Caiden must have some nerve. How could he raise someone else’s child so willingly?”

“I don’t understand. One day, I visited his place when it was freezing, and Daniela was wearing nothing but a thin shirt. I asked the maid why she didn’t make her wear something warmer, and she said Daniela was just that stubborn—she didn’t feel the cold.”

“If the maid was bold enough to speak like that, Katrina must have been even tougher on her.”

“Caiden’s a fool. He should’ve cherished his own daughter. I witnessed Joyce pour freezing water over Daniela in the middle of winter. Caiden saw it too, yet he acted oblivious.”noveldrama

“He’ll eventually face the consequences of his actions.”

“Damn, Caiden.”

There had been countless similar comments, but Caiden had always dismissed them as idle gossip. Now, however, he felt the weight of every word coming to life. The reality of it all sank in, and he finally understood—he was facing the consequences he had long avoided, the ones he truly deserved.
