The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell novel Chapter 840

Danielle froze and turned to see Nathan standing before Alexander, a mocking smile on his face, his provocation deliberate and cruel.

The air grew thick with tension. Everyone held their breath, waiting for Alexander's reaction.

But Alexander merely glanced at Nathan, his voice devoid of emotion. "You don't need to concern yourself with my affairs, *brother*."

"Instead of worrying about me, you should be thinking about how you're going to explain the plagiarized content in your technical proposal to the judges."

The words hit their mark. Nathan's face darkened, and he glared at Alexander, speechless.

Alexander ignored him and walked toward the judges' panel. As he passed Danielle, he paused and murmured, his voice low enough for only her to hear, "Don't worry. I'm here."

A wave of murmurs swept through the room.
