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

Chapter 1040:

He stared at Daniela in disbelief. “Daniela, are you okay?”noveldrama

Daniela nodded with a smile.

Still dazed, Cedric pulled her into his arms, holding her close. This was the second time.

“You reacted pretty fast just now.”

Daniela gave a small smile. “Did I? Just instinct.” From the side, Lillian barely stifled a laugh.

Cedric was still reeling. “Alexander is a head taller than you. From that angle, pulling off a clean shoulder throw should’ve been nearly impossible.”

Daniela’s expression turned thoughtful. “Really? Maybe I have a natural talent for Taekwondo? I’ve always been flexible, you know—slim and agile.”

Cedric let out a breath, shaking his head in amazement. “That’s impressive.”

The days began to settle into a serene rhythm.

As Daniela’s pregnancy advanced, her belly grew noticeably. The first trimester brought with it severe morning sickness, and she lost a significant amount of weight, which deeply troubled Cedric.

Determined to ease her discomfort, Cedric became creative in the kitchen, whipping up nourishing meals for Daniela. He also took on more responsibilities at Elite Lux to reduce her workload.

By the fifth month of her pregnancy, Cedric had purchased an island, offering a consistent climate and surrounded by mountains and waters—an ideal location for a peaceful getaway.

Daniela concluded her duties at the company, gearing up for a vacation with Cedric.

“Love, I need to sign a contract at the office this afternoon. It shouldn’t take longer than an hour. Wait for me at home, and we’ll head to the airport right after,” Cedric told her.

Having already packed for both of them, Daniela settled comfortably on the couch to watch TV. “Take care driving,” she reminded him.

Cedric walked away with a satisfied smile, warmth lingering in his expression. Ever since Daniela became pregnant, his days had been filled with joy and anticipation, eagerly counting down to the moment their child would arrive. After Cedric left, Ryan was alerted by the company about a glitch in the security system, prompting him to leave their home.

At the same time, Lillian and Josie were at the vet, sorting out an issue with unavailable prescribed dog food.

As a result, Daniela was left alone in the house.

Suddenly, her phone rang.

As she bent down to find it, a cold breeze swept through, and the door creaked open as if pushed by the wind.

Rising cautiously, Daniela spotted a shadowy figure covered in black, donning a black hat, standing at the doorway.

She narrowed her eyes at the intruder. “It’s you?”

The figure responded with a sinister grin and struck swiftly.
