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

Chapter 1254:

Nikolas was banking on the hope that Cedric still had no idea Daniela led a mercenary force.

Nikolas paused before pressing on. “Daniela may be strong-willed, but at the end of the day, she’s still just one woman. Asking her to face the McCoy family head-on—it’s too much.

In fact, I’m even willing to help, as long as she stays out of the family’s power struggles. I came to you because this helps you too. Call it an alliance with me if you want, but really, it’s a way to keep her safe. Isn’t that the smarter move?”
