The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 897 Saving the Beauty



Brittany led Daniel into the CEO's office.

Jessica looked up at the two and then said to Brittany, "You can step outside for a moment. I need to talk to Daniel alone."

"Jessica, I can't go out!" Brittany protested.

She added, "This rural boy is a notorious liar! If I leave, he'll definitely spin some tall tales to you! So, I need to stay here to keep an eye on him and make sure he doesn't lie!"

Jessica's expression darkened, and she replied sharply, "I told you to go out!"

"But Jessica, this rural boy is truly dishonest. If I'm not here, he'll fabricate some ridiculous story to deceive you!"

"He wouldn't dare!"

Jessica's demeanor was fierce, almost more intimidating than a cougar, causing Brittany to back down. Reluctantly, she exited the office.

As soon as Brittany stepped out, Daniel slammed the door shut with a loud bang.

Jessica raised an eyebrow in surprise. "Why did you close the door?"

"Well, when it comes to the affairs of us husbands and wives, of course, we need to close the door for convenience!" Daniel replied with a playful grin.

"Be serious," Jessica pointed to the chair across from her and commanded, "Sit down!"

"I don't want to sit in that chair; I want to sit in yours. It's the boss chair. If I sit there, I'll be the big boss!"

"If you sit in my chair, where will I sit?" she queried.

"I'll sit in your boss chair, and you'll just have to sit on my lap!" Daniel answered cheekily.

"Get lost! Pervert!"

Before she could finish her sentence, Daniel swiftly picked her up and plopped her onto his lap as he sat down in the boss chair.

"Oh no! We're in the office! Behave yourself!"

Jessica blushed, but she didn't resist. Instead, she playfully pinched Daniel's waist with her slender fingers.

"Ow!"

Daniel yelped, resembling a yapping puppy.

"What are you yelling about? Be quiet!" Jessica chided before asking, "Now, tell me about what happened yesterday."

"About yesterday? It's a long story..."

Daniel went on to summarize the events of the previous night, keeping his account concise.

After hearing his story, Jessica didn't appear too surprised.

But with a dark expression, she pressed, "And then?"

"I'm not talking about that! I mean the thugs. Brittany said you stirred up a gang of thugs and got them to target her."

"I stirred up thugs? Those thugs were the ones harassing Brittany and I helped her get rid of them! How did it turn into me being the one who attracted their attention? I was clearly her hero!" Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

"A hero? You're a hero? Brittany is a beauty?"

Jessica's tone was laced with sharp anger.
