Alexander froze.
He didn’t answer. A strange, heavy silence descended upon them.
Danielle watched his jaw tighten and asked again.
“Are you still struggling with whether or not to accept Niki as your daughter?”
The question seemed to catch in his throat. His gaze drifted toward the bedroom door, where he could hear the faint rustle of Niki turning in her sleep.
Then, he looked back at Danielle, his voice firm and unwavering. “I accept her. She has always been my daughter, from the day she was born.”
His words landed like a stone in the troubled waters of Danielle’s heart, and a breath she didn’t realize she was holding finally escaped.
She took a couple of steps closer, until they were barely a foot apart. “Then what’s been bothering you lately?” she asked softly. “Is it Nathan? The car accident? Can’t we face it together?”
Alexander’s body went rigid. He instinctively took a step back, putting distance between them again.
He saw the earnestness in her eyes, and his fingers trembled. He wanted so badly to nod, to pour out all the pain and fear, to close the distance between them for good.
But his rational mind held him back, screaming a silent warning. If he pulled her into his world, the consequences would be catastrophic.
He fought down the impulse, his voice turning cold. “My problems are my own to solve. You don’t need to worry about it.”
He grabbed his coat from the sofa and strode toward the door. “It’s late. I should go.”

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....
