The office’s fluorescent lights cast a harsh, cold glare, stretching Alexander’s tall frame into something lean and solitary.
He absently rubbed the button on his suit cuff, his gaze fixed on the tense line of Danielle’s jaw. His Adam’s apple bobbed; it looked like he was searching for words.
But Danielle looked up first, her blue eyes clear and unwavering.
She pressed her lips together and spoke, her tone steady. “Alexander, come talk to me when you’ve made up your mind.”
“We need to lay things out in the open, not keep drifting through this fog.”
Whether it’s anger or misunderstanding, we should say it out loud.
With that, she didn’t wait to see how he’d react. She turned and walked away.
Alexander stood frozen, his fingertips digging harder into the button until the edge bit into his skin. Only then did he let go, watching as Danielle’s figure disappeared around the corner, his eyes brimming with tangled emotion.

Early the next morning.
The first shaft of sunlight spilled through the hospital window, painting the white sheets in gold.
Danielle walked in with a thermos in hand. Her mother, Vivian Linden, was seated by the bed, gently tucking the blanket around Danielle’s uncle, Clyde.
Clyde’s face was pale; his once robust frame now gaunt from illness, every breath shallow and fragile.
“Uncle, I brought you your favorite—some nourishing soup.”
Danielle set the thermos on the nightstand and carefully unscrewed the lid, letting a wave of warmth fill the room.
She ladled a bowl and handed it to Clyde, her voice soft and soothing.

Please update...
Please update...
Sooooo complicated sigh* Simply pls thanks....
Where is Chapter 545 - 554? I thought there'll be 9-10 chapters per update....
I knew it! He’s in love with her but he thinks she loves his brother!...
Oh poor Bianca... regrets, regrets :)...
This is it! Revenge. Way to go Dani....
OMG! Chapters 451-462 had me on edge. I wish we could also read Alexander's POV. I swear I want to punch him and Millie. This story is kind of a push and pull. The main character will win some, then lose some. Hope the writer gives Danielle a big win....
I hope not a lot of important dialogues get cut out, especially between Danielle and Alexander. But I can't complain, really. Thank you again for the updates....
I'm already in chapter 432 ATM and I have the impression that the story is so slow. Daniele remains in the dark, her reputation is low and inexistent, her accomplishment and professional abilities are stiĺl hidden, her enemies are taking the joy in humiliatihg her. No evolution in the plot? Please don't stay long in this,readers might lose interest in the long run....
