She Left She Thrived She’s Worth Billions novel Chapter 924

"I... I want to accept Daphne's confession."

Melanie paused, clearly caught off guard by the sudden announcement.

She parted her lips, quickly shifting gears.

"That's great! Congratulations."

Seeing the genuine, happy smile on her face, Everett forced a bitter grin.

This wasn't a rash decision.

He had spent the entire night thinking about it.

He was just an ordinary guy.

He didn't have a powerful background or endless wealth.

Even as the COO of the Royce Group, he owed his position to someone else's generosity.

No matter how hard he worked, he could never be in Melanie's league.

Since Daphne liked him, and they had already crossed that line, he needed to take responsibility for her.

And besides...

Everett cast his gaze back toward Melanie.

If he was with Daphne, Melanie would be happy and relieved.

So...

this was the best possible outcome.

A win-win for everyone.

Everett looked at Melanie, and she stared back.

Just a moment ago, before congratulating him, she had wanted to ask him a question—

Everett, do you actually like Daphne?

But the words died on her tongue.

There was... absolutely no point in asking.

When he told her about the confession, there hadn't been a single trace of joy in his eyes.

Eyes were terrible liars.

Melanie could tell he didn't harbor any romantic feelings for Daphne.

At least, not right now.

But Daphne adored him, and since he was willing to give it a shot, maybe over time he would recognize her amazing qualities and fall for her.

After all, most love stories in this world blossomed over time.
