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

Chapter 1031:

Alexander’s face darkened.

Maybe she had gone to some exclusive, off-the-books clinic, but even those were tied into the national database. Was she really not pregnant, then?

But that pale, sickly look from earlier nagged at him, planting seeds of doubt.

His gaze lifted to the towering Elite Lux building. One way or another, he’d get his answer.

He dialed the association’s secretary. “Your sister works as a cleaning lady at Elite Lux, doesn’t she? Have her meet me downstairs in an hour. I need her to slip something to Daniela.”

Daniela always had a fondness for a specific type of liquor-filled chocolates, a rare find from abroad. She would often marvel at their decadent taste and the unique flavor that set them apart.

Recently, Alexander had managed to acquire some. He had asked the cleaning lady to deliver them to Daniela’s office.

“Do I just leave this box on the CEO’s desk? Just chocolates, nothing more, right?”noveldrama

Alexander offered a confident nod. “Absolutely. I hold your CEO in high esteem, and I know she appreciates these chocolates. Would you mind handing them to her?” He handed the cleaning lady one hundred thousand dollars.

The cleaning lady accepted the chocolates and departed.

Later, as she was tidying up the office, she placed the box on Daniela’s desk. Daniela, just out of a meeting, noticed the sophisticated packaging of the chocolates. She used to chase after this exact brand whenever she got the chance. She paused, her eyes lighting up as she saw the cleaning lady smiling broadly at her.

“Ms. Harper, a relative of mine brought these back from overseas. Remembering your fondness for them, I thought I’d bring you a box. Try them and see if they rekindle those cherished flavors you adore.”

Indeed, they were Daniela’s most cherished flavor.

As much as she wanted to indulge, she knew she couldn’t now that she was expecting.

“Thank you, these are precisely the type I relish. I usually enjoy them after dinner. Thanks for the thoughtful gift.”

The cleaning lady offered a smile in return before she resumed her duties, pushing her cart down the hallway.

Moments later, Lillian entered the room briskly, her eyes lighting up at the sight of the chocolates. Without a second thought, she snatched one and tossed it into her mouth.

“Daniela, aren’t you supposed to avoid these right now? What prompted this indulgence?”

Engrossed in a mound of documents, Daniela responded without looking up, “Oh, they were a kind offering from the cleaning lady.”

“The cleaning lady?” Lillian paused, her eyebrows knitting together in surprise. “When did she start gifting chocolates as extravagant as these?”

Daniela paused, her pen hovering above the paper. She lifted her eyes to meet Lillian’s, a trace of confusion flickering across her face.
