?Chapter 569:


    “You…” Alexander began, his voice heavy with emotions that swirled in his dark eyes.


    The words caught in his throat, leaving him unsure of what to say next.


    It felt as though someone had carved out a piece of his soul, leaving an aching void. What was the point of regret now?


    At that moment, he couldn’t help but think he had been utterly foolish.


    Divorcing Dani had been his greatest mistake.


    He had already confessed his remorse.


    But even with that admission, why did it feel like a second chance was forever out of reach?


    Alexander felt as though a de had pierced straight through his chest.


    Tears threatened to spill from his reddened eyes.


    “Dani…” he whispered after what felt like an eternity, his voice trembling.


    “Could you wait for me just a little longer?”


    Dani’s expression didn’t waver. She didn’t even bother to respond.


    To her, love that arrived toote was worthless.


    And truthfully, Alexander had never held her heart. Silently, Dani stepped around him and walked away, leaving him frozen in ce.


    Alexander stood there, watching her disappear into the distance. A cold, hollow despair seeped into him, numbing everything else.


    “You might not know, but Dani is with Cedric now.


    I??€$? ￠??t??я? ?η ga?n?νεl?.c??


    Yesterday, when he was supposed to leave for a business trip, they stayed locked in their bedroom all day and night. She only came downstairs today. I’m sure you can guess what they were doing.” Katrina appeared unexpectedly, a sly smirk tugging at her lips.


    “They’re already living together?”


    A low, amusedugh escaped Katrina.


    “Well, of course. I’ve always thought their rtionship seemed a little toofortable. Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re married by now.”


    “That’s not possible,” Alexander said, his denial almost frantic.


    “Dani isn’t the type to act on impulse like that.” Deep down, Alexander clung to the selfish belief that any moment of weakness Dani had should be reserved for him alone, not shared with another man. He refused to let that happen.


    Watching Alexander’s struggle unfold, Katrina gave a slow, almost sinister smile. With a mocking sigh, she added with false sympathy, “Honestly, Cedric can’t hold a candle to you.”


    Katrina’s words were so insincere that after thinking for a long time, she couldn’te up with a single reason why Cedric was any less than Alexander.


    After a brief pause, she said gently, “You and Dani share years of history. Back when she was chasing after you, Cedric was just a ssmate. She chose you. It’s just that somewhere along the way, things fell apart. Now, her focus is elsewhere. Still, I always thought it was a shame. Back then, she hid her true identity from you. But now, living with Cedric, she’s openly the CEO of Elite Lux.


    You never got to experience her best.”


    The weight of her words made Alexander realize his emotions had slipped out of control. Quickly regaining hisposure, he replied coldly, “There’s no need for these insinuations.”


    “You misunderstand me,” Katrina said smoothly, her voiceced with feigned innocence.


    “What would I gain by doing that? I’m genuinely speaking out of concern. That’s all.”
