“You’re wrong,” Alexander said, his voice soft. “You and I have never been the same kind of people.”
What he wanted was never supreme power or a world-consuming empire.
All he wanted was for Danielle to be safe, for the truth buried years ago to come to light, and for The Davidson Group to continue on a righteous path.
Hold’s expression finally darkened. “Is that your way of refusing me?”
“Yes,” Alexander confirmed. “I will not work with you.”
Hold stared at him for a long moment, his eyes dark as he tried to gauge the sincerity of his words.
Finally, a cold smile spread across his lips. “Good. Very good.”
“You’ve got backbone, Alexander. I’ll give you that.”
He picked up the cigar from the nightstand, holding it between his fingers without lighting it.
He gave Alexander one last, deep look, as if to burn his image into his mind.
“Since you insist on choosing the hardest path, I’ll be watching.”
Hold’s voice was as cold as ice. “I hope you don’t regret this.”
With that, he turned and walked out.
The moment the door clicked shut, Alexander slowly closed his eyes, leaning his head back against the headboard in exhaustion.
The wound in his chest began to throb again, but his heart felt strangely calm.
Refusing Harold meant he would remain under Lorie’s thumb, that his journey through this treacherous game would become even more difficult.
But he had no other choice.
He couldn’t risk Danielle’s safety, nor could he use national secrets as bargaining chips in a dirty transaction.

I hope daniele will have no end game with alexander since whatever the reason is, he only give her too much grievencess. I hope there will be another male character with stronger present than alexander to have the end game with daniele. Hated that in the name of love or protection alexander can treat another woman better, not just once, but with this new lorie girl... Oh my blood pressure getting higher cause by the new plot :(...

Oh poor Bianca... regrets, regrets :)...
This is it! Revenge. Way to go Dani....
OMG! Chapters 451-462 had me on edge. I wish we could also read Alexander's POV. I swear I want to punch him and Millie. This story is kind of a push and pull. The main character will win some, then lose some. Hope the writer gives Danielle a big win....
