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

Chapter 46
Chapter 46:
Caiden’s face darkened with rage.
“She’s gone way too far! What does she mean by ‘her things’ or ‘your things’? It’s all part of the family! If you want three floors,
they should be yours! If you want five or ten, you should get them too! You’re her sister, her family! How can she be so selfish
and ungrateful?”
He stood with his hands on his hips, frustration evident in every line of his face. It was then that he noticed Alexander standing
quietly to the side.
“Alexander, did you hear that? Daniela’s totally out of line! You need to do something about her!”
Alexander stayed calm, his tone distant.
“We’re divorced.”
“So what if you’re divorced? Everyone knows Daniela always took your word seriously.

You were her husband, and even though you’re no longer together, you still have a responsibility to guide her. Just look at what
she’s done—posting things online that brought shame to the family, and now at the auction, getting involved with the organizer.
What kind of message does that send?”
Joyce lowered her head, but a smug smile tugged at her lips. Caiden’s unwavering support was exactly what she had hoped for.
She glanced at Alexander, expecting him to back her up and stand against Daniela.
But Alexander’s words crushed her hopes.
“Daniela is the boss behind the auction, not the organizer,” he said flatly.

Caiden and Katrina froze, staring at him, stunned.

Alexander pressed on, “As we were leaving, the organizer told someone that Daniela, CEO of Elite Lux, owns the auction
house.” His words landed like a bomb. Turning to the shocked Caiden and Katrina, he added, “I’ve brought Joyce home safely.
I’ll be leaving now.”
Katrina stood frozen, taking a few seconds to process Alexander’s words. Without waiting for a reply, he headed toward his car.
Katrina snapped out of her daze and hurried after him.
“Alexander! Ask your grandfather when he’s available so our families can talk about your engagement to Joyce!”

Alexander got into his car, started the engine, and drove off into the night without saying a word.
Back inside, Caiden grabbed his phone and called a friend to check if Daniela’s influence had truly expanded this far. If it had,
he’d have something to proudly boast about. Meanwhile, Katrina stood by the window, her eyes following Alexander’s car as it
faded from view.
Joyce, still resting against her mother, glanced up at her with a puzzled look and tilted her head.
“Mom, what’s got your attention?”
“Katrina, how did Daniela behave toward Alexander at the auction today?”
Joyce let out a dismissive snort.
“She’s playing hard to get now. Instead of chasing him like she used to, she’s acting like she doesn’t care at all.”
Katrina’s chest tightened at her words.
“And how did Alexander react to her?”
Joyce lifted her chin, a proud smile tugging at her lips.
“Well, of course, he still looks down on her, just like before! Alexander only has eyes for me. Mom, just wait—once I marry into
the Bennett family, Daniela will be so jealous.”
Katrina helped Joyce inside. After walking for a bit, she turned her head, glancing back. The sleek black car had already blended
into the traffic, its taillights disappearing into the darkness.
