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

Chapter 488:

Joyce was nothing but a bitch!

She was ready to tarnish her own reputation for a man! Now, she was threatening to expose her infidelity. How could the Harper family have raised such disparate daughters?

Back then, Daniela had departed quietly without any drama.

In contrast, Joyce seemed like a person possessed by a demon, hell-bent on destroying the Bennett family.

What a malevolent woman!

Richard tried to reach Alexander, but all attempts to contact him failed.

Left with no other options, he decided to call Katrina. Daniela, reclining on the sofa, could hear Richard’s voice on the other end, lashing out at Joyce.

Nearby, Johan observed Daniela’s stoic expression as she continued to watch TV.

However, he suspected that Daniela was somehow linked to this entire debacle.

She had masterminded the ruin of these people silently. As he was lost in his thoughts, Daniela slowly raised her eyes to meet his in a silent, icy stare that lasted a few seconds.

Johan felt a tight grip of anxiety as he clenched his hands on his knees.

Daniela turned her attention back to the TV, her expression unchanged.

Richard’s voice filled the living room.

“Joyce has really outdone herself! Do you know what she told me? I can hardly say it! She wants half of the Bennett family’s assets now. I won’t go into details, but Katrina, is my family’s wealth what you’re really after?”

Before Katrina could reply, Richard continued, “If that’s what’s happening, then fine, let’s throw caution to the wind!”

Quickly, Katrina apologized.

“Joyce has lost her mind. That’s why she’s behaving like this. Please, don’t be angry. I’ll speak to my daughter. Let’s not mention divorce. She’s still young, and everyone makes mistakes at times. Let’s just say Joyce is indebted to Alexander for this. We’ll compensate him later, so please, calm down.” After Katrina offered a barrage of soothing words, Richard hung up the phone.

Katrina then reached out to Joyce.

Joyce responded curtly, “Either you get me the money, or I will divorce Alexander. The choice is yours!”

Just as Katrina was about to reply, the call abruptly ended. Katrina remained in the living room for a long while, visibly frustrated and tugging at her hair.

When she finally looked up, her eyes met Daniela’s.

At that moment, Johan saw Cedric narrowing his eyes.

“Daniela,” Katrina said boldly, “you heard everything, didn’t you? We’re all family.

You need to help me.” Daniela changed the channel on the TV with the remote.

“It’s not much, just lend me ten million, okay?” Katrina added.

Daniela chuckled briefly.noveldrama

“So now you need money to support Joyce’s man? That’s quite unexpected!” Katrina pursed her lips, tightened her grip, and seemed to come to a firm decision.

“Daniela, I won’t just borrow your money. At an auction once, I won something quite valuable. Let me know how much you’d want for it, alright? Consider it a purchase from you.”

Daniela remained silent.

After a moment, Katrina returned from her room holding a brocade box.
