Betrayed, But Not Defeated novel Chapter 125

Jennifer felt a small sense of triumph when Daniel sat down.

He still cared about her!

The thought alone made her resolve even stronger.

She had to bring back the real Daniel!

This time, she would be gentler.

She wouldn't treat him like an animal like she did before.

"We need to talk!" Jennifer leaned toward Daniel, pretending to be elegant.

Daniel gave her a cold glance. "That's it?"

Her heart skipped a beat.

She hated that look!

For a moment, the tricks she had planned all vanished from her mind.

She then pulled out the talisman Robert had given her.

"Of course not!

"This is a protective charm I got for you. Let me put it on you!"

She stood up moving closer.

A smirk played at the corner of Daniel's lips.

His eyes had already flicked toward a dark corner of the bar.

Robert and his assistant were watching.

And now, Jennifer was acting extra friendly.

It didn't take a genius to figure out what was going on.

However, there was one thing Daniel couldn't figure out.

Who in the world convinced Jennifer that he was possessed?

Encouraged by his silence, Jennifer lifted the charm and reached for his neck.

The remnants of her torn blouse left her chest partially exposed, but Daniel's eyes didn't waver in the slightest.

He simply waited for her to put the charm on him.

"Is that it?"

His sudden questions made Jennifer's fingers tremble slightly.

Jennifer's face turned red.

Even though they were married, they had never shared such intimate contact!

And just now, when she placed the charm around his neck, she felt it.

So, she did have a conscience, but it was difficult to tell whether it stemmed from guilt or was all an act.

He didn't particularly care.

"What's your plan?" Daniel looked at Robert curiously.

Robert's eyes gleamed with malice.

"Don't worry. I'll be gentle.

"Seizing someone else's body is a taboo, don't you know?"

A soft chuckle rang from Daniel as he raised his hand and slapped Robert over the face.

"Who told you I was possessed?"

Robert stumbled back.

"You!"

He hadn't expected Daniel to make the first move.

Immediately, he began forming a hand seal.

A pulse of energy burst from the talisman around Daniel's neck.

Like an invisible rope, it flew across his body, binding him in place.
