The air in the room was completely still.
Danielle stood frozen, staring into the eyes of the man before her.
Alexander's words—*I love you more than my own life*—hammered against her heart again and again.
This long-overdue confession was so heavy it felt hard to breathe. Tears welled in her eyes, blurring his image, but she fought to keep them from falling.
She had asked the question because she had finally understood.
Their marriage hadn't failed because of him alone.
All those years ago, she had known he was trapped. She knew he had just lost his mentor and was being strong-armed by his family. Yet, driven by her own love, she had stubbornly pushed for the marriage, believing that just being together would be enough to solve everything.
She had ignored the struggle in his eyes, ignored the pain he felt being forced into a union he wasn't ready for. Wasn't forcing him into it a kind of cruelty in itself?
But she had never expected this answer.
Alexander saw the stunned look on her face and pressed his lips together. "I'm not telling you this to get a response," he said softly, "or to try and win you back."
"It's just… I've held it in for so many years. I felt I owed you the truth. Don't feel pressured. I…"
"I know," Danielle interrupted, wiping the corner of her eye. Her voice was scratchy from unshed tears, but it was steady.
She took a deep breath, walked over to the armchair across from him, and sat down. Her gaze was direct and honest. "Actually, I followed you here today not just to find out what you were hiding, but also because I wanted to apologize."

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....
