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

Chapter 631:

Dark Night was one of the world’s most elite mercenaries, known for his secrecy. He only ever appeared to Elyse, always under the cover of night.

Nina froze, struggling to believe it.

“What are you talking about, Mom? Are you serious? Dark Night is the best. How could Daniela possibly go with him?”noveldrama

Elyse was shocked too, but she had seen Daniela leave with Dark Night. What unsettled her even more was that Dark Night hadn’t replied to any of her messages since then. An uneasy feeling began to stir in her chest.

“This can’t be right, Mom,” Nina said, her voice tight with disbelief.

“Dark Night never fails a mission, and there’s no way he’d let a fragile woman follow him. If anyone found out, it would ruin his entire reputation.”

Dark Night was a top assassin, offered millions every year, but he chose to remain by Elyse’s side.

Why?

Even the most powerful men couldn’t resist beauty, and the women of the Dury family were undeniably breathtaking. Nina, sensing her mother’s growing concern, quickly tried to reassure her.

“Mom, go home. Dark Night could have returned by now. Daniela’s disappearance works perfectly. I was already planning how to handle Cedric.” With that, she walked into the night.

Her white dress made her look like a ghostly vision. She spotted Cedric on the street and quickly adjusted her strap before walking toward him with an exaggerated sense of urgency.

“Cedric, have you found Daniela? I’m so worried about her.” Her tears sparkled under the moonlight, something she had practiced many times in front of the mirror.

Nina was confident—she knew how to charm anyone with just a look.

Over the years, this trick had never let her down.

Surprisingly, Cedric’s focus was elsewhere, and he seemed irritated by Nina blocking his path.

Nina briefly shut her eyes, wondering if something was wrong with Cedric’s sight. How else could he resist her appeal?

She took a deep breath, and just as Cedric was about to walk away, she let out a soft, dramatic “Oh dear!”

Her plan was for Cedric to turn around, and then she would pretend to faint. But unfortunately, Cedric didn’t even look back and continued walking. Nina gritted her teeth and fake-fell to the ground. This time, her “Oh dear!” was much louder, enough to catch Cedric’s attention. He turned around, but his expression was one of clear impatience.

Nina brushed a stray lock of hair behind her ear and said in a sad tone, “Cedric, I twisted my ankle. Could you help me up?” She raised her arms and pouted.

Cedric paused for a moment.

“You, take her back to the Dury family,” he ordered, looking at his bodyguard.

Nina was shocked. Before she could protest, the strong bodyguard crouched down and picked her up.

Nina cried out, quickly jumping out of the bodyguard’s hold.

“I think I’m fine now. My ankle’s better.”

Cedric shot her an irritated look before walking off, still searching for Daniela.
