Chapter 31:
And now, if Daniela truly was that CEO, had she abandoned her role at Elite Lux for the sake of love? More
intriguingly, who was the person who had captured her heart?
Standing apart, Alexander observed Daniela, his mind clouded by a sense of bewildering estrangement. For the
first time, he realized that perhaps he had never truly known her.
Unfazed by Alexander's intense gaze, Daniela offered a slight, enigmatic smile and replied, “It seems you've
forgotten.
You've always been too absorbed in your own world to givea moment to explain, haven't you?”
Originally, Daniela had planned to reveal all her secrets to Alexander before their upcoming wedding. However,
Alexander had told her that he wasn't interested in her; all he wanted was for her to behave herself after their
marriage. In simpler terms, he held no real expectations of her.
To the public, Alexander's father had even stated that the marriage was simply a long-standing commitment

Yet, beneath this public facade was a more strategic calculation. The Bennett family had consented to the union
solely because of the significant influence held by the Harper family.
Daniela, as Caiden’s only biological daughter, stood to inherit a large portion of the Harper family fortune,
despite Caiden having remarried and having a stepdaughter. Given these prospects, the Bennett family
welcomed her into their fold.
But once Daniela understood the true motivations behind their acceptance, her desire to reveal her true self to
Alexander began to fade.
Alexander's expression darkened tically, his jaw tightening as frustration boiled within him. Beneath it all
was a palpable fury, fueled by the bitter realization that he had been deceived.

With a steely glare at Joyce, he declared in a frosty tone, “We're leaving.”
Remaining would only tarnish their families’ honor further. Just as they neared the exit, Lillian’s commanding
voice stopped them in their tracks.
“Hold on a moment!”
Reluctantly, Alexander paused, his body tense as Lillian strode forward, a golf club in hand.
“Here, take your $8,000 golf club. | doubt even our caddies would bother with such an inferior piece.”
Her mocking words hit their mark, visibly embarrassing Joshua, who turned a deep shade of red. He hurriedly
pressed the elevator button and ushered Alexander and Joyce out.
With that, Daniela made her triumphant return to Olisvine. As the CEO of Elite Lux, she now presided majestically
over Olisvine’s most famous landmark.
Recovering from her initial shock, Joyce was already plotting her next move. She leaned toward Caiden, her voice
dripping with sugary charm.
“Dad, Daniela’s now the CEO of Elite Lux and she owns Olisvine’s top landmark building. Do you think you could
convince her to spare one floor for me?”
Caiden paused, uncertainty clouding his expression. It wasn't fear of Daniela’s defiance—she wouldn't dare cross
him. Rather, his reluctance stemmed from a recent public declaration he had made, cutting all ties with her.
Seeking her out now, after such a proclamation, would surely raise eyebrows.

to maintain his grip on wealth and status. His pristine reputation meant everything to him; the idea of it
becoming fodder for idle gossip was utterly unbearable.
Throughout his life, Caiden had lingered in the shadow of Daniela’s influential mother. Now, having finally
liberated himself and taken command of his destiny, he was determined to steer clear of any further familial
entanglements.
