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

Chapter 654:

“I majored in Finance and minored in Law, with additional studies in Psychology and Investment Banking. I believe I can be a more effective assistant than Lillian. I’ve prepared a workflow diagram based on Nina’s tasks. Please take a look, and if it suits you, we can begin today.”

Natalie’s tone carried an undeniable air of superiority, her confidence evident. Though she framed it as a suggestion, there was an underlying tone of authority.

Nina, usually quiet and obedient, couldn’t help but feel dwarfed by Natalie’s presence.

There was no denying that Natalie’s professionalism was both commanding and efficient.

Daniela glanced between the two women.

“Alright. Natalie is competent and reassures me.

You two can handle the details.

I’m off for a morning run.”

With that, Daniela left the villa.

On her way, she received a message from Ryan.

“Natalie just returned!”

Daniela responded, “I saw her.”

“What? She even visited you? I believe she had something to do with what happened to your mother back then.”

Back then, Brylee had been manipulated by a psychologist Katrina had brought in. The only reason the psychologist had been allowed to stay in the house was because Natalie had claimed to have feelings for him.

Natalie had persuaded Brylee to let him stay. Otherwise, someone as cautious as Brylee would never have allowed an outsider to remain in her home.noveldrama

While Katrina was the direct instigator, Elyse and Natalie were the ones pulling the strings behind the scenes.

Before leaving the villa, Daniela took one last look behind her.

The sky above was heavy with an impending storm.

The air was thick with the scent of rain.

The weather mirrored the day Brylee had died in an almost eerie way.

It all felt as though destiny had orchestrated these moments.

The shadows began to surrender the faces of those who caused Brylee’s death, and Daniela vowed to hold each one of them accountable.

Seated on the villa’s plush sofa, Natalie surveyed her surroundings with an air of ownership, her tone dripping with condescension.

“Mom says you’ve been quite the rebel lately.”

Nina stood to the side, feeling herself shrink under Natalie’s domineering presence.

“I’m just going after someone I care about. I don’t think that’s wrong,” she retorted, mustering her courage.

Natalie let out a frigid laugh.

“Ridiculous. If this house lacks a mirror, perhaps you should seek one elsewhere. Even if Cedric were completely blind, he wouldn’t spare you a second look. In terms of looks, intellect, or capability—do you genuinely believe you’re on the same level?”

Nina bit her lip.

“I won’t give up until the end. Love isn’t always won by the most capable.”
