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 come all 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, I agreed to the divorce because you asked for it. But I 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 I don’t need to take any responsibility.’ It’s absurd.”

Daniela turned her focus back to the jade as she replied, “Even if I do, why would that shock you? Cedric was already the wealthiest man in the country long before Elite Lux came back. 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 time on someone who didn’t appreciate me. But I’ve learned. Now, I only care about people who treat me right.”
