her arm.

shock. He swiveled his head to gaze at Daniela.

forward, nudging Cedric aside without a second thought.
“Daniela, is this true? You actually want to be with me?”

“After all the tI've spent pursuing you, it would be a waste if | didn’t at least consider your change of heart,
wouldn't it?”
Her expression remained impassive as Alexander, brimming with joy, eagerly agreed, “Yes, exactly!” Meanwhile,

Cedric, usually so composed and astute, stood a short distance away, his hands balling into fists.

“Daniela, | swear | have no feelings for Joyce anymore. If you doubt me, I'll prove it to you right now.” Not

began to ring.
