The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell novel Chapter 320

“She’s just coasting on her looks, thinking she can get special treatment wherever she goes. Judging by that face, I’d say she just got eliminated from the competition.”

Millie looked genuinely surprised.

She turned to Danielle, offering her a polite, almost condescending smile. “Miss Crawford, when they announced the rankings just now, did you even understand the numbers on that big screen?”

Her tone was gracious, almost kind. “From the beginning, I could see your determination—you really do want to make it in this business. If you’re having trouble keeping up, well, given our past acquaintance, I’d be willing to help. You could come work as my assistant at AetherX Dynamics. I could show you the ropes.”

The way she said it, you’d think she was a patron saint, ready to take a lost soul under her wing.

In her home country, Millie’s reputation was already established—she’d placed second at nationals, and plenty of young hopefuls were eager to become her protégés.

She could make an exception for Danielle—if she wanted.

Danielle’s gaze was cool and unreadable, her eyes glinting with icy amusement. Suddenly, she let out a sharp, mocking laugh. “Your ego’s even bigger than your talent.”

Millie didn’t so much as flinch. She merely smiled, her lips curving with practiced detachment. “I understand, Miss Crawford. I’m just not your type—after all, I’m not a man.”

She gave a little, theatrical shrug. “Silly me, I forgot. You’d probably prefer to ask Mr. Chapman or Mr. Atwood for guidance. They’re both legends in the field, and I’m sure the gentlemen would be happy to oblige you.”

“But here’s a piece of advice: beauty fades, but the game keeps going. The perks you get from your pretty face won’t last forever. The higher you climb now, the harder you’ll fall later. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.”

Danielle listened impassively, unmoved by the petty jabs.

She glanced at Alexander, the corners of her mouth twisting with a cynical smirk.

So this was his type—women who thought the world revolved around them.

Big on bravado, short on brains. Arrogant to the point of delusion.

Danielle’s voice was calm as she replied, “I’ll return those words to you.”

With that, she turned on her heel and walked away.

Liam watched Danielle’s retreating figure, a grin splitting his face. “Did you see that? She totally lost it.”
