Alexander kept his eyes lowered, focused on the paperwork in front of him. As Nash spoke, Alexander's face remained indifferent. "Didn't notice," he replied flatly.
Nash pressed his lips together, hesitating, but in the end said nothing more.
He understood. Clearly, Mr. Davidson's mind was elsewhere—certainly not on Danielle. Whatever changes she was going through, they barely registered with him.

Ninesky's latest project was in full swing, but it needed serious funding to get off the ground.
Securing that capital meant reaching out to different partners—a challenge they'd been tackling head-on. Several companies had already come knocking, eager to collaborate; even Keegan had called, expressing interest in a potential deal.
But raising funds always came with risks. Equity financing could solve their cash flow issues and speed up development, but give away too much, and they'd lose control of the company. Take on too much debt, and they'd risk a financial crisis.
Danielle and Gian were well aware, but they didn't let it weigh them down.
After all, Ninesky was still a newcomer in the industry. Their supply chain was far from complete, and they weren't equipped for independent production yet.
Their plan? Attract investors to build their own production line—or, failing that, acquire a well-established manufacturing company.
Recently, the government had organized a major industry summit, and Ninesky received an invitation—a golden opportunity to connect with potential manufacturing partners.
Naturally, as the technical lead, Danielle accompanied Gian to the summit.
She had thrown herself into preparations for the event. If she could land a deal with a manufacturer, it would be a major win.
She was running system tests one afternoon when her phone suddenly rang.
Danielle glanced at the screen—a number she didn't recognize.
She answered in her usual gentle tone, "Hello?"
"Mom, are you really not coming home?"
The voice on the other end belonged to Raffy.
Danielle frowned. She'd already blocked Raffy's number, but it seemed he'd just found another way to call her.
"You have the wrong number," she said, her voice cold.

Monday.
The government-backed industry summit was a grand affair, drawing all the big names.
By a little after eight in the morning, the venue was buzzing with important people.
Alexander arrived with Millie on his arm.
Millie was stunning in a bespoke designer dress worth a fortune, instantly drawing the eyes of nearly everyone present.
"Is that Millie?" someone whispered nearby. "She's gorgeous."
"No kidding. She and Mr. Davidson look amazing together. And it's not just her looks—she's brilliant. If anyone could match Mr. Davidson, it's someone like Miss Fletcher: smart, independent, a real powerhouse."
Liam and Keegan had arrived early. When they spotted Alexander and Millie entering, they made their way over.
"What took you so long?" Liam teased as they joined the group.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell
Where is Chapter 545 - 554? I thought there'll be 9-10 chapters per update....
I knew it! He’s in love with her but he thinks she loves his brother!...
Oh poor Bianca... regrets, regrets :)...
This is it! Revenge. Way to go Dani....
OMG! Chapters 451-462 had me on edge. I wish we could also read Alexander's POV. I swear I want to punch him and Millie. This story is kind of a push and pull. The main character will win some, then lose some. Hope the writer gives Danielle a big win....
I hope not a lot of important dialogues get cut out, especially between Danielle and Alexander. But I can't complain, really. Thank you again for the updates....
I'm already in chapter 432 ATM and I have the impression that the story is so slow. Daniele remains in the dark, her reputation is low and inexistent, her accomplishment and professional abilities are stiĺl hidden, her enemies are taking the joy in humiliatihg her. No evolution in the plot? Please don't stay long in this,readers might lose interest in the long run....
Please update...
The last chapter was too short. More pls. Thank you....
Lovin' this. More more pls!...
