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

Chapter 590:

“Are you claiming you had nothing to do with it?” she asked, her tone colder than usual.

Caiden’s gaze wavered nervously.

“If it weren’t for you, my mother would still be alive.

Your greed and vanity set all of this in motion. Do you truly claim no responsibility? You could’ve fallen for anyone else.

You could’ve just divorced my mother. But you were too tied to her money to let her go. And in all these years, did it never cross your mind that Katrina might’ve been the one who killed her?”

Caiden quickly retorted, “No, really, I didn’t. It was all Katrina! I share some blame, but the majority of it falls on her.

You can’t pin everything on me!”

Attempting to gain her sympathy, Caiden added, “Daniela, I’m getting old—I can’t handle much more of this. The small house is freezing, and I just can’t endure it anymore. Let me come back to the house. Deal with Katrina however you want, but please, just let me return.”

Daniela chuckled icily.

“You don’t know? Then why did you plead with Cedric to send you to Zentara?”

Caiden’s heart raced, his eyes widening in disbelief as he stared at Daniela.

“Why did you refuse to share a room with Katrin and insist on sleeping in the guest room? Or why did you suddenly feel the need to deliver that fruit knife downstairs in the middle of the night? Do you truly not know, or have you just been pretending all along?”

Her words stripped away his facade without mercy. A cold shiver coursed through Caiden. After a long pause, he asked, “So you’ve known all along?”

Daniela didn’t deny it.

“Why else do you think I moved back to the villa?”

Caiden was left reeling in shock. Suddenly, the events of the past weeks began to make sense.

“So, you came back on purpose.

You just wouldn’t let Katrina get away.”

Daniela said nothing. Her silence confirmed everything. Caiden’s heart quaked as he gazed at Daniela, as though seeing her true self for the first time.

He had never fathomed that Daniela could be this calculating.

“But I didn’t kill your mother. I’m still your father. Can’t you show me mercy? I don’t need much—just a hundred million, send me abroad, and I swear I’ll never return. I’ll leave everything of the Harper family to you. That’s all I ask. Is that too much?”noveldrama

Daniela let out a bitter laugh.

“Even now, all you care about is money.”

Shaking her head, she refused to entertain him any longer.

Without another word, she turned on her heel and walked away.

That same day, Daniela threw Katrina and Caiden out of the small house.

Reduced to the doghouse, Katrina snapped, charging at Daniela with a kitchen knife in hand.

Daniela narrowed her eyes, standing her ground with eerie calmness.

Suddenly, a figure stepped in front of her, acting as a shield.

Katrina was kicked to the ground, her unhealed illness flaring up violently.

Blood spewed from her mouth, mingling with the rain, eerily mirroring the blood that had pooled beneath Brylee’s lifeless body.

An ambulance arrived to take Katrina away. As the paramedics loaded her into the vehicle, she fixed Daniela with a venomous glare and screamed, “Daniela, you ruthless bitch! You’ll get what’s coming to you—just wait!”

Daniela stayed composed in Cedric’s comforting embrace. Caiden was paralyzed with fear, his legs trembling beneath him. He hastily packed his belongings that night and fled to the countryside.
