The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell novel Chapter 129

They don't have the nerve or the means to go head-to-head with The Davidson Group right now.

Gian studied her calm expression, half-wondering if she'd finally snapped from the pressure.

"You're really not angry?" he pressed, watching her intently.

Anyone else would've lost it by now, but Danielle remained unruffled.

She shook her head. "There's no point. Favoritism always lets the chosen get away with anything."

Why bother fighting? In her previous life, she'd battered herself bloody trying to make Alexander love her. She wasn't about to repeat that mistake. Now, all she wanted was to focus on herself.

Millie's credentials were impressive, no doubt—she had real talent.

But in a country this size, even if you're the one-in-a-million genius, they'll find another fourteen thousand just like you. If Millie wanted to shine in front of Mr. Hawthorne, to stand on a national stage, she would need Alexander paving the way for her, opening every door.

If Danielle let herself get upset over this, she'd be seething forever.

After Ninesky Systems launched, things got hectic for a while. But soon, they needed to kick off new projects.

She frowned, silent for a while. "I need to grow a bit more first," she finally said.

At the very least, she wanted to raise her academic standing before taking that leap.

And there was Niki to think about. If she really did join Blackwood, she'd be spending every waking hour in the lab, with no time left for her daughter.

Getting a second chance at life meant making choices—work or her child, she couldn't have it all.

"Good things are worth waiting for," Gian chuckled. "Don't forget to rest."

Someone like Danielle—she'd be in demand anywhere.

The last time she reappeared at the ISSDC competition, word got out fast. Several big names started asking her mentor about her, eager to recruit her.
