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

Chapter 1052:

In Alexander’s imagination, Daniela must be thrilled and would surely say, “I do!”

“I may have lost my memory, but I’m not a fool.” Daniela’s voice was sharp, slicing through his illusions.

Alexander’s face stiffened at her words. He gawked at Daniela, his eyes clouded with confusion and disbelief.

“We’re divorced. You’re my ex-husband. And unless I misheard, I already have a husband,” she added.

Alexander hurried to clarify, “Yes, you do, but that was just a misunderstanding. Daniela, you were upset because I believed Joyce over you, so you married Cedric just to get back at me. That memory must have been too painful for you, so you buried it deep. Doesn’t that make perfect sense? Out of everything you’ve lost, you still remember me. What does that tell you? It proves you still care about me. You’re in love with me! Daniela, stop lying to yourself. You know you love me.”

The more he spoke, the more fervent he became, reaching out to slide the ring onto Daniela’s finger.

Just then, a hand shot out, clamping onto Alexander’s wrist with enough force to send a sharp jolt of pain through him. His grip loosened, and the ring, along with its velvet box, tumbled to the floor.

“Cedric!” Alexander’s eyes widened in shock. How could Cedric, after three years in bed, still be this strong?

“What the hell are you doing?”

“She doesn’t want this.” Cedric’s gaze was sharp, unwavering. “You can’t force her.”

“How could she not want to?” Alexander snapped, frustration burning in his voice. “She’s just not thinking clearly yet!”

Daniela had no patience for this chaos. She shot Carol a glance. “We’re leaving.” Elite Lux demanded her attention, and she had just regained consciousness. She wasn’t about to waste her energy on pointless drama.

“Daniela,” Alexander’s voice rang out as she walked away. “Dinner tonight. Eight o’clock. The restaurant in Dreamland Hotel. I’ll be there waiting for you!” he called out, his voice chasing after her.

As soon as she vanished from view, Alexander smirked and turned to Cedric. “This time, Cedric, I’m winning her back for sure!”

Cedric’s stare was frigid. “Is that so? Maybe—if her memory had stopped earlier. But it didn’t. It ends at the divorce. You don’t know her. She never second-guesses her choices.”

Alexander barely blinked. “We’ve got over ten years together. She’ll give me a chance. But you…” His eyes flicked to Cedric’s injured leg. “How could someone like you ever make her happy? What makes you think she’d pick you? Cedric, a man should know his limits. If you really loved her, you’d want her happy—not tied down by a burden like you.”

Elite Lux was drowning in an economic storm, battered by one crisis after another. In the last three years, the headquarters had been drained of nearly every resource, leaving the company gasping for stability.

Daniela had spent the entire afternoon buried in work, barely pausing to take a breath.

Carol approached, holding a report in one hand. “Alexander is downstairs.” Daniela checked the time—it was already ten at night.
