But now, they were separated by divorce and a chasm of unspoken misunderstandings. Even a simple greeting felt fraught with caution.
“Is Niki asleep?” Alexander asked, walking toward her. His voice was a low whisper, careful not to wake the child in her arms.
Danielle snapped back to reality and nodded, tightening her hold on Niki. “Why weren’t you waiting in the car?”
“I was worried you’d have trouble with the door while holding her.”
Alexander reached out to take her bag, but she instinctively flinched away.
His hand froze in mid-air. He slowly retracted it. “The business matters… we can discuss them at the institute tomorrow. You look tired.”
Danielle was surprised by his consideration. She saw the exhaustion etched in his eyes and remembered he was still recovering. A flicker of softness went through her. “It’s fine. We can talk upstairs. It won’t take long.”
Alexander didn’t object, following her into the building.
The motion-activated lights in the hallway flickered on, illuminating their two figures.
Inside the apartment, Danielle gently laid Niki on her bed and tucked her in. She closed the bedroom door quietly before turning to face Alexander, who stood in the middle of the living room.
Moonlight streamed through the window, tracing the familiar lines of his silhouette.
In that moment, Danielle felt a strange certainty that their story had never truly ended.
She gestured for him to sit and poured him a glass of water.
Alexander nodded and sat down. He was as poised as ever, but he looked thinner, and the coldness that once defined him had softened.

Please update...
Please update...
Sooooo complicated sigh* Simply pls thanks....
Where is Chapter 545 - 554? I thought there'll be 9-10 chapters per update....
I knew it! He’s in love with her but he thinks she loves his brother!...
Oh poor Bianca... regrets, regrets :)...
This is it! Revenge. Way to go Dani....
OMG! Chapters 451-462 had me on edge. I wish we could also read Alexander's POV. I swear I want to punch him and Millie. This story is kind of a push and pull. The main character will win some, then lose some. Hope the writer gives Danielle a big win....
I hope not a lot of important dialogues get cut out, especially between Danielle and Alexander. But I can't complain, really. Thank you again for the updates....
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....
