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

Chapter 877:

“Just ignore the flowers, Joyce. Isn’t Cedric the one you really want?” He paused. “I’ve thought of a way.”

Joyce didn’t bite immediately. She merely twirled a petal between her fingers, watching it as if deep in thought. There was no rush. Daniela had three days to consider the partnership. A deal that profitable—she wouldn’t refuse.

Once it was set in motion, she would have all the time in the world to be by Cedric’s side.

Love cultivated under the right circumstances would last. That was her belief. Now that there was no marriage to bind her, she had every opportunity to make him hers.

Alexander studied her coldly, seeing right through her schemes. “Men are easily enamored before marriage. Even after marriage, some still stray. But if a child is involved, that changes everything.”

He leaned back against the sofa, his gaze sharp. “People have been saying Daniela and Cedric were planning for a baby. Who knows? Maybe she’s already carrying his child.”

Joyce’s fingers stiffened against the petals. Then, her eyes turned cold, filled with malice. “What was the plan you just mentioned?”

Daniela rested her chin on her palm, her gaze lingering on Cedric as he arranged the flowers.
