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

Chapter 724:

“What do you want to know? This has nothing to do with me! It was all Katrina’s doing, not mine! If you want answers, go to Katrina and Joyce!”

Daniela chuckled, a defiant smile playing on her lips in the darkness.

“Don’t worry. I’ll get to them. But right now, it’s your turn.” Caiden’s chest tightened at the ominous weight of her words.

“The first question is simple. When you went after my mother all those years ago, was it your idea, or were you following someone else’s orders?”noveldrama

Caiden’s heart lurched, and he quickly responded, “Of course, it was my idea.

Your mother was breathtakingly beautiful back then, admired by so many men. I fell for her at first… when I came along. It’s that simple…”

Before he could finish the word “simple,” a cold gust of wind rushed past him. In the blink of an eye, Daniela stood before him.

Just as Caiden was about to react, a sharp pain stabbed through his chest. He froze, staring down in dazed confusion. A knife had been buried deep in his left thigh, blood spurting out like a fountain. Slowly, Caiden raised his head and glanced at Daniela. Moments later, he screamed in agony, “Ah!” The piercing scream echoed through the entire villa.

The front door swung open, and Nina stepped in, her eyes widening at the gruesome scene in the living room. Daniela didn’t flinch. Amidst Caiden’s agonized cries, she yanked the knife from his thigh with brutal force. Caiden screamed once again.

Daniela looked down at him, her voice calm and deliberate as she asked, “Do I really need to ask again? Was it a calculated move or real affection?”

Caiden’s lips quivered uncontrollably from the excruciating pain, and cold sweat streamed down his forehead. He turned his head, his eyes pleading as he glanced at Cedric standing at the top of the staircase.

“Cedric, help me. Daniela’s lost her mind…”

Before he could finish his sentence, a second stab came down, plunging into his right thigh.

“Ah!” Caiden’s forehead veins throbbed as his body teetered on the edge of collapse. He almost lost consciousness.

Daniela stood still, like a hunter torturing his prey, waiting patiently for Caiden’s screams to subside and for him to endure the unbearable pain. She then pressed the sharp tip of the knife against Caiden’s chest.

“If this knife goes any deeper, I doubt you’ll hear me ask again.”

“I’ll talk. I’ll tell you everything.” Sweat drenched Caiden’s forehead, mingling with the blood, making him appear both fierce and pitiable.

“I’ll answer any question you ask. Before I met your mother, I was just a poor farmhand. We were worlds apart.”

His words rushed out, punctuated by sharp breaths from the pain.

“Someone gave me an invitation to a banquet and a set of fine clothes, which let me attend that event.”

Daniela shot him a cold glance.

“And then, did my mother notice?”

“No.

Your mother was so stunning back then. How could she even notice someone like me? I saw her, and I heard people talk about how she was the wealthiest person in the country, with unimaginable riches. It was just like that. I never dared to dream of her…”

“Honestly. After the banquet, I went home. Then, someone started giving me information about where she would be, what she liked, and tips on how to get her attention.” Caiden’s voice wavered, but there was a deep honesty in his words.
