Gian turned to Danielle, his gaze steady.
“What’s your take on this?”
Danielle lifted her glass, taking a sip of water. She tapped the table lightly with her fingertips. “Maximizing our interests is the best outcome.”
A thriving corporation, right within her grasp—why would she walk away? With the company in their hands and Millie’s reputation in shambles, it was a chance to kill two birds with one stone. Why not seize it?
Kirsten propped her chin on her hand, thinking aloud. “If we’ve figured this out, do you really think Alexander hasn’t?”
Gian’s smile was slow and knowing. “Of course he has. But he’s run out of options, hasn’t he?”
“He loves Millie. But with his family’s status and background, the only way to help her is to make some sacrifices.”
The Davidsons were sitting at the top of the food chain.
There were countless eyes—friends and enemies alike—watching their every move, waiting for them to slip up. One mistake, and it could all come crashing down.
To outsiders, Alexander seemed untouchable—a golden boy born with every advantage. But was he truly free? In a family like his, every business move was a minefield. Sometimes, it was harder than being an ordinary person.
And Alexander wasn’t stupid. He’d never risk dragging everything into the light without making sure it was all above board and squeaky clean. He carried the weight of the entire Davidson family on his shoulders; he wouldn’t bet their legacy on a reckless move.
Danielle had been married into the Davidsons long enough to know exactly how the game was played.
Gian nodded. “Since we’ve made our decision, let’s get in touch with their side and set up a meeting with the lawyers. Time for a proper talk.”
Kirsten couldn’t help but laugh.
“Didn’t Alexander say he’d already hired the best legal team for Millie? But the top firm in Northridge City must have realized the odds aren’t great, so now they’re taking a different approach?”
Danielle pressed her lips together, thoughtful. “Judging by how he’s handled things, he’ll always pick the path with the least collateral damage.”
He was careful, meticulous—he always treated Millie with the utmost care. He’d rather hurt himself than see Millie suffer.
Gian let out a quiet, mocking laugh. “To go this far just for a woman’s smile… well, I’ve got to respect the guy’s guts.”
Kirsten rolled her eyes and shrugged. “Smart men always seem to fall for foolish women, don’t they?”
“Childhood sweethearts—men never forget the one who got away.”
Millie was Alexander’s “one that got away,” and he was only too happy to wear that devotion like a badge of honor.
Danielle just smiled, saying nothing more.

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!...
