She began to wonder if she’d misheard him.
Danielle’s voice dripped with mockery. “Alexander, who do you think you are?”
Jealousy only comes from caring about someone, and she felt absolutely nothing for him now—where was this jealousy supposed to come from? Honestly, he was far too full of himself.
“Mhm.” Alexander responded with a nonchalant hum.
He added, almost lazily, “Then I must’ve overthought it.”
“Whatever you say.”
Before Danielle could retort, the call ended abruptly—he’d hung up.
He’d made this call under the guise of consulting her opinion, but really, it was just to get under her skin. In the end, he still expected her to handle the project by herself. That last sentence of his almost sounded magnanimous, as if he were somehow the bigger person.
Danielle let out a cold, mirthless laugh.
Looking down at her phone, she realized there was no reason for them to stay in touch anymore.
Without hesitation, she blocked Alexander’s number.
From now on, if she needed anything from the Davidson family, she would only reach out to his grandmother.
Meanwhile—
Right before Alexander hung up, Liam and Millie entered his office, files in hand.
Liam let out a scornful laugh. “Danielle? She’s gotten more and more temperamental lately—probably spoiled by Gian. Now that she’s met Harold Chapman, who knows what she’s up to. Is she running a business or building her own little harem?”
Millie frowned. “Isn’t that a bit much to say about a woman?”
“Sure, Danielle’s actions have been out of line, but at the end of the day, a woman’s reputation is her most important asset.”

The readers' comments on the novel: The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell
I'm already in chapter 432 ATM and I have the impression that the story is so slow. Daniele remains in the dark, her reputation is low and inexistent, her accomplishment and professional abilities are stiĺl hidden, her enemies are taking the joy in humiliatihg her. No evolution in the plot? Please don't stay long in this,readers might lose interest in the long run....
Please update...
The last chapter was too short. More pls. Thank you....
Lovin' this. More more pls!...
