The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell novel Chapter 672

Danielle stood there, speechless.

If she could have vanished into a hole in the ground, she would have.

Alexander’s eyes fixed on her, sharp and knowing. It was as if he’d expected her to come back and eavesdrop. Now, caught red-handed, the awkwardness in the air was almost unbearable.

“I was just passing by,” Danielle tried, her voice stiff.

“Still stubborn, I see.”

Alexander glanced at his watch, then got right to the point, his tone cool and businesslike. “When they announce the bidding later, make sure Ninesky doesn’t enter into any deals with Vanguard Technologies at the investors’ meeting.”

No one could deny Alexander’s impressive network and how fast he got wind of things. The rest of them had no clue what the new bidding project would be, but Alexander already seemed to know every detail.

“What’s the project?” Danielle asked.

“Satellite engineering,” he replied. “And Vanguard Technologies isn’t what they make themselves out to be. Their public image is nothing like what goes on behind closed doors.”

He continued, “Sure, Ninesky’s past collaborations with them went fine—mostly because you didn’t need much from them. But once you start relying on them long-term, once your needs grow, they can’t deliver.”

Danielle frowned, trying to process this. How could he know so much about Vanguard’s internal issues? Outwardly, Vanguard Technologies was still the industry leader, untouchable as ever, with first-rate tech and a spotless engineering record. Everything Alexander was saying would sound impossible to anyone else.

After all, Vanguard looked strong enough to stand for decades to come.

Danielle’s breath caught in her throat. His intuition was uncanny—nothing got past him. Standing this close, she felt as if he could see right through her.

She stared at him, searching for any sign of vulnerability. He wasn’t much older than her, yet his insight was unsettling, almost frightening. Too skilled, too cunning.

And yet, there was something magnetic about him. No matter how many lines he crossed, Alexander had a way of making people want to trust him. He was born to lead, to command.

Danielle closed her eyes for a moment and drew a slow, steady breath.

Maybe it was that same quality—the dangerous allure of his authority—that had made her fall for him so hard, so fast.

It was no wonder Millie would go to hell and back for him.
