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

Chapter 1378:

Caught off guard, Alexander faltered for a moment before regaining his composure with an easy grin. “Daniela, I was just helping manage your staff. I didn’t expect you so soon.”

Daniela turned her eyes on Dexter, silently instructing him to step behind her. Then she faced Alexander, tone sharp. “And who gave you authority over my team? Perhaps I have been too lenient.

Daniela ignored him, her voice remaining icecold as she addressed Dexter. “He’s here to apply for a position, correct?”

Dexter gave a firm nod. Daniela tilted her head. “And your conclusion?”

Without hesitation, Dexter replied, “He’s not a fit.”
