Chapter 262:

“Here, take a long, hard look. Why not pay Joyce a visit instead? See, I’m shallow, Alexander. I can’t handle a face like that. But Joyce? She’d probably embrace you like a long-lost treasure.”

Alexander’s bruised and battered face darkened with humiliation, the sting of her ridicule cutting deeper than the physical pain. Standing there, he felt utterly defeated, wondering how he had been naive enough to believe that Daniela might still harbor any feelings for him, even in his current state.

He turned to the mirror, his swollen and bruised face staring back at him like a cruel reminder of his downfall. Shame, raw and overwhelming, clawed at him for the first time in his life. A fleeting wish crossed his mind—that the floor might split open and swallow him, sparing him from the weight of his disgrace.

Yet, despite the heartbreak crushing his spirit, he didn’t walk away. He remained rooted in place, his gaze fixed on Daniela with the silent desperation of a man grasping at his final lifeline.
