Chapter 220
Chapter 220:
Daniela completed the last details of the carving, blowing off the dust before placing it down and finally locking
eyes with him.
“You've call the way here, late at night, into my office, just to talk about this? Is it really that important?”
Alexander, unusually resolute, persisted, “Yes, this matters to me! Back then, | agreed to the divorce because
you asked for it. But | never truly wanted it, Daniela!”
Daniela appeared to find it laughable. Her eyes gleamed with sarcasm as she met his gaze.
“Alexander, do you even realize what you're saying? It’s like a man telling a woman after they've been together,
“You went along with it the whole time, so | don’t need to take any responsibility.” It's absurd.”
But Alexander stood firm. He locked eyes with her and pressed, “I'm asking you plainly—do you have feelings for
Cedric? Stop dodging the question.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDaniela turned her focus back to the jade as she replied, “Even if | do, why would that shock you? Cedric was
already the wealthiest man in the country long before Elite Lux cback. He's good-looking, taller than you,
has a calm nature, and knows his way around the kitchen. Sure, I've made my share of mistakes, like spending
ton someone who didn’t appreciate me. But I've learned. Now, | only care about people who treatright.”
Her tone was direct, with no hint of apology.
“Cedric treatsright and is exceptional in every way. He's a solid choice. Don’t you agree? Or should | go back
to wasting my twith someone like you? I'd much rather put my effort into making more money. With enough
money, | could live like you men—keeping things flexible, always enjoying life to the fullest. | could even hire a
good-looking secretary to make my office more interesting.”
A playful smirk appeared on her face as she continued, “You're here asking if | like Cedric? What's going on?
Don’t tell me, after all this time, you've had a change of heart and now wantto fall for you all over again?”

The weight of guilt hit Alexander as Daniela’s sharp gaze locked onto him.
After what felt like an eternity of silence, he finally spoke.
“Yes, Daniela, that’s why I'm here. I'm begging you not to fall for Cedric.
You can still love me, and | swear—I'll treat you the way you deserve this time.”
Daniela barely stopped herself from gagging at Alexander's words.
She forced down the sick feeling rising in her and gave Alexander a sharp, skeptical look.
Back when she had been obsessed with him, she could hardly take her eyes off him. But now, with no feelings
left, her patience had completely run out.
Leaning her head on her hand, she couldn't help but find the situation amusing.
She had put in so much effort before, bending over backwards, breaking her own boundaries, just to make
Alexander love her.
Yet, he wouldn't even spare her a second glance.
But now, without her lifting a finger, he suddenly wanted to be kind to her, all because he feared she might be
interested in Cedric.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhat a complete joke this was!
She wondered if Alexander thought she was an easy target, which was why he kept coming to belittle her.
If that was the case, she saw no reason to hold back.
“You want to be kind to me?” Daniela replied, continuing to carve the jade in her hand.
“Well, go ahead and try. It’s hard to say if | could ever feel anything for you again, but just remember, your
choices are yours to make.
You're an adult, right?”
