The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell novel Chapter 1094

Danielle met his gaze, a hint of understanding in her eyes. 'Your intuition?' 'It's not intuition. Everything about this feels off,' Gian said, shaking his head. His sharp eyes scanned the mingling crowd. 'Look at Harold from Vanguard Technologies. He's acting so confident, as if he already knows the outcome. Then there's Lorie and her father—they came on strong, but there’s a desperate panic beneath the surface. Even the old man from the Davidson family showing up in person… this isn't just about a business deal.'

Danielle remained silent. She had vaguely sensed the same things Gian pointed out. But now that she knew the 07 project was a fake—that the whole bid was a ruse to draw out a snake—everyone's strange behavior made perfect sense.

She turned to Gian, the man who had always quietly supported and protected her, always giving her a rock to lean on at critical moments. 'Gian, you've always been perceptive.' Hearing this, Gian gave a self-deprecating laugh. 'Perceptive enough to make an educated guess, maybe.' He paused, his gaze fixing on her face, his expression turning serious. 'But you're different. You can know the whole story.'

Danielle's heart skipped a beat as she met his eyes. Gian's gaze was calm and sincere, free of probing or pressure, filled only with genuine concern. It seemed he had long suspected she was hiding something but had never pressed her. Now, he was telling her in his own way that he trusted her and would support her.

A wave of warmth washed over her, and her eyes grew hot. For years, she had grown accustomed to carrying everything on her own shoulders, protecting herself and Niki with a hardened exterior. But Gian's presence was a constant reminder that she wasn't fighting this battle alone.
