Rejected No More: I Am Way Out Of Your League, Darling! - Chapter 618

Chapter 618:

“No, not yet. Some people only realize their mistakes after they’ve been broken down enough. Just make sure she stays alive.”

Lillian gave a curt nod.

“From the looks of Katrina’s recent string of disasters, Elyse’s hand in this is unmistakable. But something tells me it’s not just her. Is there someone else pulling strings behind her?”

Daniela didn’t say a word. She stood quietly by the floor-to-ceiling window, her gaze fixed on the bustling traffic below, her eyes thoughtful.

Alexander left Daniela’s office and made his way to Joyce’s residence.

Joyce greeted him without surprise. She knew Daniela’s nature well—generous unless betrayed, then utterly unforgiving. Alexander had hoped for reconciliation, but deep down, he knew Daniela’s forgiveness was out of the question.

Upon arriving at Joyce’s place, Alexander began undressing immediately. Standing before her, stripped bare, he felt her gaze appraising him, her eyes calculating.

“So, are you truly committed this time?”

Alexander’s expression was cold, his disdain for Daniela evident, though his thoughts still lingered on her.

“Yes. I am decided.”

Joyce’s laughter rang out, sharp and cautionary.

“Alexander, you can’t just waltz in and out of here on a whim.”

His brows furrowed at her words.

“What are you implying?”

“You should know I’m neither short of money nor companions. This isn’t just a place for quick cash. Got it?”

It dawned on Alexander that Joyce was proposing a continuous, intimate relationship.

With a sly smile, Joyce laid out her terms.

“One year, at my disposal.

You will comply with all my requests. In return, I’ll ensure Bennett Group thrives.”

The memories of the compromising videos made Alexander’s mood darken further.

Joyce chuckled softly.

“Don’t worry. Sign this contract, and I’ll treat you fairly. Those videos were just to curb your lingering feelings for Daniela. Stay true to me, and I promise no more games.”

Alexander was staggered by how completely Joyce seemed to dominate him now.

“Do you need time to consider?” Joyce asked.

His jaw clenched, and Alexander dismissed the need for delay.

“No need.”

Joyce clapped her hands lightly, the sound cutting through the tense air.

“Excellent. Here’s the contract. Abide by it, and I’ll elevate Bennett Group. Break it, and your company becomes mine.”

She slid the contract across the table to him before retreating to the bathroom to undress, leaving him alone with his thoughts. The faint sound of running water echoed from the bathroom as Alexander stared at the contract, his fists clenched. His hand shook visibly as he gripped the pen.

He convinced himself that with enough wealth, Daniela would regret her indifference. He was determined to rise to prominence, to change how Daniela saw him.

With trembling hands, Alexander signed the document.
