Not A Small Town Girl (Danielle and David) novel Chapter 128

Chapter 128

The two of them came out of the principal’s office and brought all the snacks Ryan had prepared back to the dormitory.

Juniper was quite extroverted and had a warm, outgoing personality. Therefore, Danielle didn’t need to talk much; having Juniper around was enough to liven up the atmosphere. Soon, the four roommates in the dormitory started to warm up to each other.

Juniper said, "This is a snack that Danielle and I brought back. Let’s share it together."

"Wow, this snack looks so delicious. Danielle, did you buy it for us?" June said happily.

Danielle always felt that June was overly enthusiastic about her. She said calmly, "No, it was given to me by someone else."

"It looks so delicious. You didn’t forget to bring snacks back for me and Jane when you went out to play. I’m so happy!" June’s exaggerated tone made the three people in the dormitory fall silent.

A ringtone broke the brief silence.

Danielle saw that it was Xavier’s call and answered it.

"Danielle! When I woke up, I realized that there was no one at home. Everyone went to send you to school. It’s all my fault. I drank too much yesterday and didn’t get up." Xavier held his hangover head. He was still a little dizzy.

As soon as Danielle picked up the call, she heard Xavier’s wailing. "I’m fine, Xavier. Does your head still hurt?" She asked with concern.

"I don’t know why the alcohol at David’s place hits so hard; I’m still feeling a bit dizzy. Luckily, you didn’t drink, or else you would have missed the enrollment today." Xavier grimaced as he rubbed his head, noticing a large bump on his forehead in the mirror. "Ah! Danielle! I’m going to be disfigured. There’s a big bump on my head. Who hit me while I was drunk?"

’You totally embarrassed yourself because you were drunk!’ Danielle didn’t mind making it even more embarrassing for Xavier, so maybe he would remember not to drink next time. "Xavier, do you really not remember what happened yesterday?"

"What happened?" Xavier scratched his head. Suddenly, some memories surged into his mind.

His mouth widened, and he even found it unbelievable. ’Did I do those things? This is so awkward...’

"Um, Danielle, take good care of yourself in school.

I will visit you when I have time. I’ll talk to you later. Bye!" Xavier finished his sentence in one breath and hung up.

"This is so embarrassing, how could I do that to a man, and then get hit by him... It must not have been him. It was a dream, yes, just a dream. Xavier kept brainwashing himself before slowly walking downstairs.

In the Johnson Group, Jaden’s assistant reported, adding his comment on the situation.

He said, "Mr. Johnson, here is all the news about Xavier. You usually don’t pay attention to the entertainment section, so why the sudden interest in the subsidiary’s affairs?

Also, he made the trending news this morning for sticking his head out on an overpass and waving at passing vehicles. It was really silly! I felt embarrassed and foolish just watching the trending news," the assistant reported, adding his comment on the situation.

"Hey, show me some concern. I’ve been despised by our mother." Xavier pounced on the sofa and sought the comfort of his brothers.

"Get up." The brothers pushed Xavier away mercilessly.

Xavier’s phone rang. When he saw that it was his manager, he had a feeling that something bad was going to happen.

Xavier resignedly answered the call. "Xavier, you’re courting disaster again. Can you not go a day without trending? Are you that restless?" his manager shouted angrily over the phone.

"What trending topic? I’ve been at home all this time. I didn’t do anything." Xavier was confused.

"Have you been drinking? Sticking your head out on an overpass and waving at passing cars, and someone even caught it on camera, making it to the trending news! Now your fans are calling you a fool. What happened to your cool, aloof image? Do you even care about it anymore?" Xavier’s antics were so frequent that his manager had a heache. Xavier took out his phone and looked for trending topics related to him. ’How could that be? He even said that I looked like a fool. I am not. He said, "There’s no trending topic about me! Are you old and blind? Do you want me to take on some jobs again?"

The manager took it out to take a look. The trending topic was gone. "I don’t know which kind-hearted person removed your trending topic. Can you stop causing trouble for me? Give me some peaceful days!"

"Got it. I’m hanging up." Xavier decided to never drink again. Drinking only brought trouble.

After taking a shower, Danielle lay on the bed and picked up her phone to read the messages sent by her subordinate. [Miss Darling, in the past few days, the Prosper Group has been closely involved with the Dixon, Harris, and Stuart families, injecting funds into each of them. It seems highly likely that the poisoning incident we discussed last time was orchestrated by the Prosper Group.]

It was the same as Danielle had guessed. She typed: [Continue to monitor them. Intercept their businesses when necessary. Since the Prosper Group has such a long reach, chop off their hands.]

Her subordinate thought, ’Miss Darling deserves to be my boss. She’s brave enough.’
