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

Chapter 689:

By that evening, the specialists had arrived, ready to step in.

Within the hour, Linden’s tasks were completely handed over. He arched a brow, silently acknowledging how impressive Daniela’s quick thinking and decisive moves were.

Linden stepped outside and typed a message to “Natalie.”

“They’ve figured out what caused Cedric’s coma and have started him on specific treatment.”

“Natalie” responded almost instantly,

“You need to get rid of Cedric now!”

Resting against the wall, Linden pushed his glasses up and let out a frosty smile.

“Daniela’s sharp. Doing something like this would put my career on the chopping block. What’s in it for me?”noveldrama

The reply came in the form of a picture. It was provocative, to say the least. Linden stared at the image for a moment, then let out a chilly laugh before recording a voice message.

“Is that the best you can offer?”

“You’ll be generously rewarded once it’s taken care of!”

Linden shoved his hands into his pockets and stared off at the horizon.

“You can’t be serious. What guarantee do I have that you won’t turn on me when it’s done? This situation is a lot more tangled than I expected. And let’s not forget, Cedric’s food problems trace back to you. If the truth comes out, you’ll have a mess on your hands too.”

Elyse listened to the voice message, her expression tightening as her brows drew together.

“Damn Linden!”

“What exactly do you want?”

Linden’s lips curled into a smirk.

“I want you.”

Elyse’s hands shook with anger.

This shameless bastard was clearly lost in his delusions.

Natalie was her precious daughter. Elyse had poured time and resources into shaping her, ensuring she mastered etiquette and elegance. There was no way she would let someone like Linden drag Natalie into the dirt. Natalie deserved someone like Cedric—someone exceptional—who would elevate her to be the pride of the entire socialite community.

Elyse’s gaze turned icy as a sly plan began taking shape in her mind.

“I don’t trust you just yet. If you want to prove yourself, show me some real sincerity. I’m not asking you to take Cedric out right this moment, but I need to see if you can genuinely contribute to his downfall before I even consider giving you what you want.”

Linden arched a brow and simply replied,

“Alright.”

Later that evening, Daniela was engrossed in her reading when the monitoring device let out a series of beeps. After a few moments, it went silent, returning to normal.

Standing close by with a notebook in hand, Linden glanced at Daniela’s composed face.

“There’s no need to worry. Small fluctuations like this are fairly common.”
