Irresistible Revenge: A Romance

Chapter 1708

Chapter 1708:

Those words told Daniela right away that this wasn’t going to be simple. Nikolas continued, “I was brought up

knowing I'd have an arranged marriage someday. Back then, marriage didn’t mean much to me. | thought I'd just

follow whatever my father wanted. Things are different now. I'm not sure what | want anymore. I'm confused and

| need tto figure things out.”

Daniela’s brow tightened as she watched him. After a pause, she said, “If you're feeling this lost, you really ought

to stop chasing Carol.”

Hearing her words, Nikolas jerked his head up, uncertainty flickering in his eyes as he looked at her.

Words flowed evenly from Daniela as she continued, “You're not Cedric, and you're still under your father’s

thumb. Carol isn't me—she hasn't had to go through what I did. The two of you aren’t even together yet. She's

not bound to you, and you shouldn't have to torture yourself like this.”

Inside, Brad had just begun to rise from his chair to check on her, but stopped as Daniela reappeared.

In a casual tone, he asked, “You're back already?”

Daniela sent him a calm, steady look, her expression unreadable.

That was enough to make Brad shift uneasily, unsettled by the quiet intensity he saw in her eyes.

No sharp words left Daniela’s lips, yet the coldness in her gaze made the whole world seem insignificant.

Speechless, Brad simply observed as Cedric quietly offered Daniela a glass of milk.

A slow countdown continued in Brad's head. Today was the second day.

When Carol returned from the office, Daniela was still in the living room. Carol handed her the document. “Why

are you still downstairs? | thought you'd be in your room now.”

Darkness filled the room, broken only by flashes of light and shadows from a horror film flickering across the

television.

Brad had already waved the white flag, fleeing to his room long before; the horror was simply too much for him.

Without a word, Daniela passed the
