Danielle’s head snapped up, her eyes wide with astonishment. “What did you say?”
“I’m not trying to take advantage of your situation,” River added quickly. “I know this is sudden, but I just want to help you. You’re being swamped by these rumors, and it’s not just affecting your job—it could even impact Niki. If you’re willing, I can…”
“No.” Danielle cut him off before he could finish, her brow furrowed. “River, you’re a good man, and you’ve always been there for me. I’m truly grateful for that.”
She was thinking rationally. “But I can’t do this. I can’t use your reputation to get myself out of trouble when I know there’s no future for us. That would be exploiting your kindness and giving you false hope. I can’t do something like that.”
She was well aware of River’s feelings for her; she hadn't been oblivious. But she simply didn’t have the energy to start a new relationship. She didn’t want to use his genuine affection as a tool and end up hurting him.
River’s heart ached, but he softened his tone. “You don’t have to worry. We would just be pretending for a while.” He paused, his gaze resting on her tense face. “I know what you’re worried about, but we can tell everyone we just started dating. Once the rumors die down, we can find a suitable reason for an ‘amicable breakup.’ It won’t cause you any trouble, and it won’t put me in an awkward position.”

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 :(...

I knew it! He’s in love with her but he thinks she loves his brother!...
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....
