?Chapter 547:


    The man with the scar on his face tightened his grip in frustration.


    It was all due to Joyce.


    How else could they have squandered two hundred million?


    This mess was Joyce’s doing.


    When Alexanderter awoke in the hospital, he opened his eyes wide at the sight of Dani sitting by his bed, absorbed in her phone.


    As soon as Alexander noticed Dani, he sat up quickly.


    “Are you alright?”


    Dani, realizing he was awake, started to leave.


    “Dani!” Alexander called out.


    “Are you really just going to walk away?”


    Dani retorted, “What? Haven’t you been enough? You want me to stay and hit you?”


    Pain flickered in Alexander’s eyes.


    “After everything we’ve been through, can you at least speak to me kindly?”


    He believed he had intervened to protect her.


    He thought she should be thankful, not harsh.


    His heart ached, and his spirits sank.

    He felt his sincere efforts werepletely ignored. Dani dismissed his feelings as ridiculous.


    “Just keep out of my affairs next time.”


    Alexander stared at Dani in shock.


    “I saved you! Is this your thanks to someone who saved you?” She continued walking without replying.


    Suddenly, Alexander yelled, “Dani, doesn’t my risking my life for you deserve another chance? Am I inferior to Cedric?”


    Dani stopped briefly, then chuckled.


    “The audacity,paring yourself to Cedric.”


    Alexander remained motionless. He was bewildered.


    He knew Dani was fiercely loyal to those she cared about. To others, she was indifferent.


    Yet, here she was, vehemently defending Cedric.


    This realization chilled Alexander.


    “What do you mean by that? What exactly is happening between you and Cedric that makes you defend him so passionately?”


    Dani didn’t see the need to borate. Her rtionship with Cedric was clear and uplicated.


    However, due to Alexander’s close rtionship with Katrina, Dani chose not to disclose details that might reach Katrina. It simply wasn’t worth the risk.


    “You’re just friends,” she remarked casually, looking down at her phone.


    She was reading Cedric’s message when footsteps approached.


    Alexander quirked an eyebrow.


    “Cedric, did you hear that?” he eximed with evident glee, his eyebrows raised in amusement.


    At that moment, Dani understood that Alexander had tricked her.
