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

Chapter 1205:

The moment those words came out, Kohen and Charles froze.

Nikolas continued, “Ghost swore that Cedric is the one leading Lone Wolf.”

When he stopped speaking, both men just stood there, stunned. Kohen took a moment, then whispered, “That—can’t be. How is something like that even possible?”

Charles added, “But Cedric’s supposed to be crippled.”

Nikolas finally seemed to realize something. He muttered, “Even with his leg like that, Cedric still managed to defeat Ghost. Imagine what he’d be capable of if he were completely fine. Would he really struggle to get rid of any one of us?”

The trio went quiet. No one said a thing. They exchanged glances in silence. And behind their eyes, the intent was clear.

“Your call, Nikolas!” said Charles and Kohen at the same time. “Tell us what to do—we’ll follow your lead!”

Nikolas clenched his fists. “Only those who are removed from the equation can’t challenge us. Cedric cares a lot about his leg. Let’s help him—make sure it never recovers.”

There were plenty of ways to finish someone off. And they had time to go one step at a time.

Kohen followed them back inside.

In the living room, Daniela was reading through reports. When Charles came in with Kohen, he called out, “Daniela.”

She frowned. “Is the whole McCoy family moving into my house now?”

Kohen stepped forward, smiling. “You’ve misunderstood, Daniela. We’re grateful Cedric chose not to compete for the inheritance. This is Charles McCoy, a brother of mine. He really appreciates Cedric’s decision. He knows Cedric’s leg hasn’t healed. He works in medicine and has access to some of the best doctors. He wants to take Cedric for an evaluation, see if anything can be done to help him.”

Daniela turned to Charles and asked, “Is that true?”

Charles nodded. “Yes. No matter what happens, we’re still family. We’re concerned about his health. It’s a small thing for me, but we hope it helps us all grow a little closer.”

His answer sounded perfect.

Daniela looked away. “He’s in the garden, tending the flowers. You’ll find him there.”

The three of them headed toward the garden.

Just before they stepped out, Daniela’s voice rang from the living room.

“—cold and sharp. If you’re thinking of anything else, you’ll regret it.”

The three of them stiffened, forcing uneasy smiles.

“Of course not.”

Daniela didn’t say another word.noveldrama

They continued walking to the garden.

Cedric was in the garden, quietly tending to the flowers.

The three of them approached and stood in front of him.

He looked up, surprised to see them there.
