Rejected No More: I Am Way Out Of Your League, Darling!

Chapter 1250:

The knife landed with a loud clang, its weight unmistakable.

Just then, the door to the CEO’s office burst open.

Nikolas and Charles strode in from outside.

Daniela, not even bothering to look up, addressed Kohen. “You claimed you could handle it? Here—take the knife. Go ahead and kill Nikolas.”

Kohen and Nikolas both froze, stunned by her bluntness, while Charles watched with utter indifference.

Taken aback by Daniela’s audacity, Kohen stared first at the knife, then at Daniela, and finally at Nikolas.

Overwhelmed, he turned back to Daniela, incredulous. “You want me to kill my own brother? Have you lost your mind?”

Daniela met his gaze with cold detachment. “Lost my mind? The person responsible for my mother’s death holds more power than Nikolas. If you’re too timid to confront Nikolas, how can you possibly be of any use to me? What basis do we have for collaboration?”

She continued, addressing both Kohen and Charles, “Remember, we are partners here—equals. I don’t play the roles of superior or subordinate. If you’re not prepared to reciprocate on equal terms, then don’t expect me to align with you.”noveldrama

Kohen felt like he was on the verge of losing his mind. Daniela was completely out of hers.

It was already insane that she’d asked him to kill Nikolas.

Even if she meant to go through with it, the least they could do was discuss it in private. Who just throws that out in the open like it’s nothing?

“You talk like Charles would actually go through with it,” Kohen muttered under his breath, frustration barely contained.

Daniela slowly lifted her eyes, locking her gaze onto Charles.

Without even glancing at her, Charles stepped forward. His hand reached for the knife on the table. Then, turning, he walked toward Nikolas.

Nikolas’ eyes widened in disbelief as he shouted, “Charles, have you lost your mind? I’m your brother! You’re seriously submitting to a woman just for the sake of the family fortune? What happened to your pride, honor, and loyalty to your own family?”

Nikolas backed away with every step, but Charles advanced steadily, unwavering.

The knife in his hand gleamed under the light. His eyes were cold, staring at Nikolas as if he were already dead.

“Nikolas, it’s winner takes all. I don’t have a choice, so don’t hold it against me. I’m a man who refuses to spend his life controlled by others. I spent my whole life under Dad’s thumb. If I can’t reclaim my freedom after he’s gone, then everything I’ve lived for will be meaningless. Today is the perfect opportunity, and I’m being honest about it. I’m determined to fight for this inheritance. If you want to compete, it’ll only lead to a bitter, destructive clash. But if you step back now, you’ll still be my brother.”

Nikolas retreated toward the door, his brow deeply furrowed. “What nonsense are you talking about? I’m the eldest son. The position of family head should be mine. Besides, Daniela is dangerous and unreliable. If you let her manipulate you, this family will fall into her hands. Wake up, Charles. Put the knife down.”

Charles shook his head. “Nothing in this world is handed to anyone. Everything must be fought for. If you refuse to step down, then I must apologize in advance for what’s coming.”
