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

Chapter 53:noveldrama

“Thank you.”

Under the glow of the neon lights, the young man’s ears flushed bright red.

“Goodbye, Ms. Harper.”

Keith watched with interest as the scene unfolded, his eyes fixed on the young man. He nudged Alexander and said, “You know, Daniela’s always been stunning—guys have always been drawn to her.”

But now, with her being the CEO of Elite Lux, she’s on an entirely different level. Just look at that boy—he’s all nervous, trying so hard to impress her. And she’s being so sweet with him.”

Alexander walked to the parking lot without saying a word.

Keith continued, “You know, Alexander, if I’d realized that Daniela was completely done with you, I wouldn’t have dragged you with me earlier. Do you think I came off badly? I mean, she shut me down pretty quickly back there.”

As Keith kept talking, he noticed something odd. Alexander’s hand seemed to hesitate, gripping the car door handle just a little tighter at the moment Keith mentioned Daniela being over him.

Keith blinked, his instincts kicking in. Alexander wasn’t as unaffected by her as he was trying to make everyone believe.

Keith saw his chance and leaned in.

“Alexander, women like Daniela are one of a kind, and they deserve to be treated well. She’s beautiful, successful, and getting attention from all sides. If you don’t make a move, someone else will. And Joyce? She’s a ticking time bomb, and her mother isn’t any better. If you go through with marrying her, you’ll regret it every single day. Just think about it—three months ago, Daniela was going out of her way to make you happy. Even now, despite how distant she’s acting, there’s still a bit of warmth in her. If you just let go of your pride and apologize, I’m sure she’ll forgive you. So, why keep acting like you couldn’t care less?”

The tales you love are at gⱯlnσν𝓮ℓs․cøm

Alexander’s face tightened, his frustration evident. He wrenched the car door open, and, before slamming it shut, he snapped, “Does everything have to be about her now?”

The door banged shut, and his car roared to life, tearing into the night and blending into the rush of traffic.

Keith stayed behind, watching the taillights disappear. With a deep sigh, he shook his head and muttered under his breath, “If the day ever comes when she really doesn’t love you anymore, you’ll be left begging and pleading.”

Alexander didn’t hear a thing Keith had said. He sped down the road, his mind elsewhere.

When he got home, the living room lights were still on. Richard was there, clearly eager to know how things went with Daniela.

Before Alexander could even make it all the way through the door, Richard jumped in with a grin.

“Well? How’d it go? I heard half of Olisvine’s bachelors were at the concert hall tonight.

You had a prime spot. Did Daniela notice you?”

“She did,” Alexander replied flatly.

Richard’s face brightened with hope. Grinning like the result was already decided, he asked, “And? Did you actually talk to her? Did you bring up the idea of getting back together?”

Alexander’s expression turned cold.

“No.”

Richard’s smile faded, and he frowned.
