Chapter 1085: Carol's tone was flat. "Daniela is busy and doesn't have tfor pointless social calls. They ruin her appetite. She'd prefer if you didn't cback." Alexander blinked, caught off guard. "Why? We had a great talk yesterday." "Did you?" Carol shot him a look of pure disdain. Alexander had the unmistakable air of a man who basked in his own wealth, daring it for all to see. "Maybe that's how you saw it, but we didn't. No reason to stay in touch. End of story." With that, Carol turned on her heel and headed upstairs.

Carol shook her head. “Nope. He looked pretty shaken. Doubt he'll be back.” Daniela gave a slight nod. "Alright." The previous show's massive success had breathed new life into Elite Lux. Business was booming, keeping Daniela buried in work. Before she knew it, a month had slipped by.
One evening, an auction was taking place.
Daniela wasn't keen on attending, but Carol insisted on dragging her along, claiming she needed a change of pace. The car rolled to a stop at the auction venue.
Even before stepping out, they spotted Cedric and Alexander near the entrance. Alexander strutted around like he owned the place, radiating arrogance, his voice never pausing as he spoke with a self-satisfied smirk. His finger repeatedly jabbed in Cedric's direction, emphasizing his injured leg.

Everything was settled that day-Daniela agreed to leave you and marry me. But then, suddenly, she changed her mind. What did you say to her? A grown man like you, resorting to these desperate theatrics. Don't you find that embarrassing? Cedric, do you even understand what love really means? It's about letting go, about making the person you love happy. But you? You're just being selfish. That injured leg of yours? It's karma. Someone like you has no right to be loved by Daniela. With that leg of yours, you shouldn't even be showing yourself in public. Do you have any idea what people are saying? They're wondering how someone like Daniela-a globally respected executive-could possibly have a husband who looks like this. Have you even considered how humiliating it must be for her to be the subject of such gossip?" Alexander carried himself with an air of arrogance, drawing curious glances from those nearby. gvlnov.☐☐, h☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐ ☐☐ Carol turned to Daniela. "Wantto step in?"
