Chapter 166:
This was how things had always gone.
No matter how ridiculous Alexander's requests were, Daniela would always cave in.
This time, it was just a contract—hardly a challenge for Daniela to refuse.
The idea of Daniela becoming his daughter-in-law again brought Richard a great sense of satisfaction.
Once Daniela remarried Alexander, Elite Lux would be completely under his control. She would stay at home,
raising kids and supporting her husband, while Alexander would take over Elite Lux gradually. By the tshe
noticed, Elite Lux would already be entirely in the hands of the Bennett family.
At that point, who could compete with Bennett Group in the entire country?
Richard had been eagerly awaiting this moment for so long.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe chuckled to himself, but his laughter was cut short when the front door suddenly swung open, and Alexander
stepped inside.
Still smiling, Richard looked at him and asked, “When are you heading to Elite Lux to sign the contract?”
Alexander, frustrated, yanked at his tie as he explained what had happened.
Richard's brow furrowed as he quickly asked, “After you yelled all that, how did Daniela react?”
Alexander's eyes dropped, his mind still racing with confusion and panic.

“She ignored me. I'm not even sure if she heard me.” Daniela had changed so much.
In the past, her emotions were always clear, easy for him to read. Now, he couldn't even tell what she was
feeling, let alone her thoughts.
Richard squinted, his voice low.
“Then she’s still unsure. I'll figure something out.”
Alexander's grip tightened as he replayed the image of Daniela in the corridor over and over, feeling helpless to
change anything.
She must have seen right through him. Otherwise, why would she be so distant and cold?
Richard took a long drag from his cigarette before turning to Alexander.
“The secret spot in the tree Daniela talked about... Was it at the Harper family’s villa?”
Alexander gave a brief nod.
Richard fell silent for a moment, then spoke.
“Since that’s where everything happened, there might still be clues there. Daniela’s room could have some
traces left. No one else is competing for the role of the boy from that year, so if you say the right things, you can
win her over!” Even if Alexander couldn't convince her, at least she wouldn't completely reject him.
Alexander needed to act quickly and remarry her before Daniela realized everything.
After remarriage, everything would be much simpler. Her assets would becAlexander's, and the Bennett

wanted to pay them a visit.
Katrina, excited by the unexpected news, assumed Richard was coming to talk about the marriage between
Alexander and Joyce. She was thrilled by the thought of it and eagerly opened the door, ready to welcthe
Bennett family with open arms.
Joyce shifted uncomfortably on the couch.
