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

Chapter 1163:

The moment Alexander stepped through the door, he wasted no time sharing the news with Richard.

“Hamilton’s eldest son? You’re kidding, right? Are you absolutely sure we’re talking about Hamilton McCoy—the richest man on the planet?”noveldrama

Alexander gave a firm nod, and Richard’s eyes lit up with uncontained excitement.

“The world’s richest man? If we could snag even a fraction of their mining empire, Bennett Group would skyrocket! But why Olisvine? Oiscoll has everything they need. Do they really have to expand here?”

Alexander’s brows knit together. “I’m not sure. But Nikolas handed me access cards for both Elite Lux and Phillips Group.”

Richard leaned in, voice quick and eager. “You need to keep Daniela close—and Nikolas even closer. He’s the future heir of the McCoy dynasty. With him and Daniela on our side, Bennett Group will never have to worry about money again. Invite him to dinner tonight.”

Alexander nodded, a knowing smirk forming. “That’s exactly what I had in mind.”

Nikolas agreed to join them for dinner without hesitation.

Richard went all out, filling the dinner table with an array of dishes tailored to Nikolas’s taste.

As they settled in, Nikolas asked, “You said Daniela was your wife. What happened between you two?”

Alexander let out a long, weary sigh.

Richard leaned forward, voice heavy with bitterness. “It’s all because of Cedric’s scheming ways. Daniela struggled with depression when she was younger, and it was Alexander who helped her through it. But then Cedric swooped in, twisting the story, claiming he was the one who pulled her out of the darkness. He’s got a silver tongue, and over time, Daniela believed him. She drifted away from Alexander. Alexander didn’t always look like this. Cedric beat him to a pulp, all because Daniela preferred his face over Alexander’s. Cedric holds a lot of power in Olisvine. People see the injustice, but no one dares to stand against him. He’s too ruthless.”

Nikolas let out a low chuckle, skepticism flickering in his eyes.

He wasn’t gullible enough to take their words at face value.

Nikolas drawled, eyes sharp with interest. “What’s your next move?”

Richard sighed, shaking his head. “Our hands are tied. That’s why we need your help.”

Nikolas smirked, amusement dancing in his eyes. “And how exactly am I supposed to do that?”

Richard offered a knowing smile. “If you could just create an opportunity for Daniela and Alexander to spend a night together, it would drive a wedge between her and Cedric.”

Nikolas arched a brow. “That’s it?”

“That’s it. You’re an esteemed guest of both Phillips Group and Elite Lux. You can just give Daniela a glass of drugged wine. Pretty simple, isn’t it? I’ll give you an address—just take her there. I guarantee, once it’s done, Daniela and Cedric will be over. And if you’re interested in any future collaborations, Bennett Group will ensure your interests always come first.”

Nikolas had no interest in Bennett Group’s wealth or resources. The only thing on his mind was pulling Daniela away from Cedric.
