?Chapter 1468:


    “Dani, I’m here to take Alexander away. All he wants is to see you onest time. I know the past is a tangled mess, but Cedric went too far. Yes, Alexander was wrong, but he doesn’t deserve this ending. Please, Dani. He’spletely broken. He needs to see you—just this once. I’m begging you.”


    Tears streaked down Richard’s face as he pleaded, desperation cracking through hisposure.


    Dani’s gaze was cool and unreadable, her posture perfectly steady.


    “If you won’t go to him, I’ll have to bring him to you. You wouldn’t want a scene in your ownpany, would you? I swear, see him this one time and we’ll never disturb you again.”


    Richard staggered under the weight of his emotions, nearly copsing right there in the hallway.


    Inside the hospital room, Alexandery swathed in bandages, barely recognizable beneathyers of gauze and splints.


    The instant he saw Dani walk in, tears welled in his eyes, streaming down his ruined face.


    “I heard you wanted to see me.”


    Dani halted at the foot of his bed, her expression unyielding.


    “I didn’te here out of kindness. I came to finish what I started. After today, you and I will never cross paths again. I never loved you. Back when I said I liked you, that was the extent of it. Our divorce didn’t change me, not even a little. Cedric showed me what love actually feels like. Real love isn’t one-sided obsession—it’s trust, desire, fulfillment. It’s physical, emotional,plete. I never had any of that with you. You chose your own fate the moment you cornered me on that rooftop. You brought this on yourself. There’s nothing left to say between us. I hope you spend the rest of your days remembering what you lost, and drowning in that regret.”


    She turned on her heel, already moving for the door.


    Behind her, Alexander’s lips trembled. His voice rasped out, desperate.


    “Did you ever love me at all?”


    ???????????? ???????????????????? ???? ?????????ν????????????


    Dani paused, ncing over her shoulder with augh—quiet and merciless.


    “Love you? Seriously?”


    The humiliation hit Alexander like a tidal wave. As Dani strode out of the room without another look, Alexander’s world spun out—his rage and heartbreak crashing together until darkness swallowed him whole.


    Dani was on her way back from the hospital when she saw Cedric near thepany building.


    Even with everything on Cedric’s te, he was standing there, waiting for her.


    As her car approached, Cedric walked toward it.


    “Did you visit the hospital?”


    Dani grinned.


    “Yeah. I saw someone wrapped up like a mummy.”


    Cedric let out a scoff.


    “That’s what caught your attention?”
