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

Chapter 954:

Huey quickly joined the conversation, his voice tinged with urgency. “Yes. Hackett, when do we move against Daniela? You have no idea the losses my company has suffered this time. I won’t find peace until Daniela is out of the picture!”

Marcus stood up decisively. “It’s time to eliminate Daniela!”

The others rose in unison, a wave of agreement sweeping through them. Still smiling, Hackett affirmed, “Indeed, it’s settled then; Daniela’s days are numbered. And when we strike, Alexander will fall alongside her. If we redirect their business domestically, the profits will more than make up for our recent setbacks—a thousand times over. With Daniela out of the way, the domestic market will finally be within our grasp.”

At the thought of seizing control from the wealthiest in the world, smiles spread contagiously across the room.

“But we need to approach this game with caution,” Hackett suggested, his eyes glinting with slyness. “It’s too early to provoke Alexander. Let’s use him to corner Daniela instead.”

As he strategized, Hackett gestured to his secretary with a grin, instructing them to dispatch yet another priceless antique to the Bennett family.

The room buzzed with laughter and merriment as Hackett invited his so-called daughters to partake in the festivities.

Alexander scoffed indifferently at the gift from Hackett.

Richard remarked appreciatively, “That’s quite generous of Hackett.” Just then, Hackett’s call came through.

“Alexander, I owe you one! Your strategy has turned Phillips Group into public enemy number one, but…” Hackett hesitated, his tone growing serious. “How should we deal the final blow?”

“When someone is down, you make sure they don’t get back up, right?” Alexander replied coldly, his gaze fixed on the pine trees dotting the horizon.

With the phone on speaker, the eight listeners in the room exchanged excited glances.

Hackett, rubbing his bald head with a broad smile, exclaimed, “Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant! Cedric won’t have a chance to rise again!”

At three in the morning, the imposter posing as Cedric stepped forward to hold a press conference.

He made a brief appearance, tears of remorse glistening under the harsh camera lights as he confessed to every allegation circulating online.noveldrama

“I sincerely apologize. My actions have not only caused public chaos but have also hurt my beloved wife. As of today, I will officially resign as CEO of Phillips Group to atone for my mistakes. I vow to never set foot in the business world again.”

Standing on stage, dressed in an elegant suit, he bowed deeply, his face a mixture of regret and turmoil.

“Additionally, I extend my deepest apologies for the irreversible harm this scandal has inflicted upon my wife. I have utterly failed in my duties as a husband, and for that, I believe the only way forward is divorce. Daniela deserves far better than a disgrace like me. I have never been worthy of her! From the very start, I was drawn to her wealth, power, and status—I never truly loved her. Now that the truth is laid bare before the world, I cannot face her anymore. I will leave everything behind, entrust my lawyer with the divorce proceedings, and ensure I walk away with nothing as a token of my repentance. Thank you.”

The “Cedric” delivered his statement and disappeared just as swiftly, the entire ordeal unfolding in less than five minutes.

Yet mere moments after the press conference, paparazzi caught “Cedric” slipping into an upscale club, indulging in an intimate rendezvous with another woman.
