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

Chapter 550:

Daniela shook her head.

“Joyce made her own choice.”

Katrina didn’t believe her. She asked Daniela, “Did you send Joyce away?”

Daniela just smiled and stayed silent, the quiet saying more than words ever could.

Katrina’s mind raced, flooded with countless theories about Joyce.

But in the end, they all fell apart in the face of truth. At the banquet for Daniela’s new company, Katrina mindlessly held a glass of wine.

Without warning, a waiter appeared at the door, his voice respectful as he called out, “Mrs. Fairburne.”

Katrina was about to turn when a group of women near her started whispering and giggling.

“She’s really throwing her life away for money?”

“Did you notice how tightly she’s wrapped? There are probably marks all over her skin.”

“Still, marrying Doug is no small feat. She must have some remarkable strategies.”

“Doug is worth billions and spends without a care. In Olisvine, only Daniela could rival him.”

“Quiet, she’s coming this way.”

In a perfectly timed chorus, the women around them all greeted her.

“Mrs. Fairburne!”

“Hello, everyone.”

A voice, smooth and undeniably familiar, sliced through the air, carrying a hint of a husky tone.

Katrina’s body tensed. With a stiff movement, she turned to face the source of the voice.

Three months had passed since Joyce had vanished without a trace. Now, she was Doug’s wife.

The realization hit Katrina all at once.

After Joyce’s disappearance, Erika had never once mentioned Doug’s name to Katrina. Even when Katrina offered Erika money, she’d dismiss it with a simple, “Keep it for yourself.”

Initially, Katrina assumed her mother was upset with her. But soon, she found Erika had bought a luxury house.

The realization hit Katrina like a lightning bolt—Erika must have introduced another woman to that wealthy man.noveldrama

At the time, Katrina hadn’t even considered Joyce. After all, Doug had pursued her first, and she never imagined Joyce would take such a drastic step.

A step so bold, even Katrina herself would never dare to take.

Katrina’s body shook under the weight of the revelation. She approached Joyce and asked, “Joyce, have you lost your mind?”

Joyce met her gaze with a cold stare, unfazed by the harsh question.

The crowd around them parted like the Red Sea, creating a clear path for Joyce.

“Joyce, do you even realize what you’re doing?”

Joyce gave Katrina a subtle smile, her confidence unshaken.

“I’ve never been more certain of what I want.”

If degrading herself meant a lifetime of luxury and admiration, she would embrace the title of Mrs. Fairburne without hesitation.
