The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell novel Chapter 373

Gian nodded. “You’ve just submitted your thesis. You’re not as swamped as before, so it’s only right to take some time for yourself. You don’t have to bury yourself in work all the time.”

Danielle kept her head down, sorting through the data, a faint smile tugging at her lips as she listened.

“This is my work. If I don’t do it, it’ll just pile up forever. The more I finish now, the less I have waiting for me later.”

That was the truth, plain and simple.

Gian shoved his hands into his pockets. “Now I finally get that saying—nothing’s scarier than someone more talented than you who’s also working harder.”

The AetherX Dynamics bidding event was grand, drawing a crowd—and Alexander was there too.

His presence alone was enough to fill the place with representatives from nearly every company in the industry. The venue was packed wall to wall.

Afterwards, Danielle scrolled through the news on the finance channel.

Kirsten sent over a flurry of screenshots and messages.

In one of them, Alexander and Millie were standing side by side, dressed in matching colors. The man who always seemed so distant and aloof actually had the hint of a smile in his eyes.

Kirsten: [Everyone’s saying they’re a perfect match—“beauty and brains,” “the golden couple of aerospace engineering.” Makes you want to gag, doesn’t it?]

[They’re a pair of fakes, that’s what they are. Golden couple, my ass.]

Even through the screen, Danielle could feel Kirsten’s outrage.

She couldn’t help but chuckle, and tapped to call her.

“Look at you, workaholic, actually not buried in spreadsheets for once?” Kirsten said, still fuming. “They’re supposed to be at a business event, but the two of them are practically flirting for the cameras. Did they come to close a deal or to show off how in love they are?”

Danielle sounded unbothered. “Well, think about it. When you watch the business channel, are you really interested in the project updates, or are you secretly hoping for a glimpse of their soap opera? Maybe your focus is off.”

Her even tone when it came to Alexander and Millie was almost disconcerting.

Kirsten pressed on, “From what the news says, Alexander clearly isn’t the type to hold women back at work. So, when you were his wife, why didn’t he ever support your career?”

Was it just because he didn’t love her?

But even a businessman with no love in his heart would at least see the value in profit.
