Not A Small Town Girl (Danielle and David) novel Chapter 164

Nathan knew that Danielle was no ordinary girl. She was skilled and had many identities, but David's enemies were far too dangerous.

"Who says I can only be a weakness and not armor?" Danielle's voice preceded her arrival.

She walked in, her expression calm today.

David was a little surprised that Danielle had arrived. He stood up from the sofa, the coldness in his eyes melting away instantly. It was filled with an overwhelming sense of tenderness in the next moment. "Miss me, huh?" he said, embracing Danielle.

"I wouldn't dare miss you as I'm afraid of holding you back," Danielle said, pushing David away and sitting down on the sofa as she pouted.

Noticing that Danielle was angry, David shot Nathan a glare.

He then gently comforted her, saying, "How could that be? You are my armor."

Nathan, receiving his boss's blaming gaze, hurriedly apologized. "I'm sorry, Miss Darling," he said. "That's not what I meant. I know you're very capable. I was just worried that you would get hurt."

Danielle was not angry. She said indifferently, "I'm not worried about those things. You're overthinking things. I'm not a pushover."

"Was it you who sent someone to block Scorpion?" David asked, looking at Danielle affectionately with his attractive eyes.

"How did you know?" Danielle said. "Could it be that my people got hurt from fighting with yours?" She facepalmed, thinking, 'I was careless. I thought David was simply capturing Scorpion. Unexpectedly, he took down the entire drug trafficking group. The people I sent this time happened to have never met David's people.'

"Miss Darling, were the people blocking Patrick sent by you?" Nathan asked, feeling confused. He thought, 'So, both sides were injured from fighting their own people.'

Danielle said somewhat sheepishly, "Well, the people I sent this time didn't know yours."

She received a call on her way to Nathor Palace, saying that the people she sent were injured and had been taken by the other party. She was cursing while driving. It was only when David asked earlier that she realized what had happened. She was left speechless...

David rubbed Danielle's hair and said with a chuckle, "It's a good chance to train their skills."

"Nathan thought, 'Mr. Charrington, do you even realize what you just said?'

"In a week, an organization under me has an assessment on a deserted island," David said casually. "Want to go and have a look?"

Nathan widened his eyes, thinking, 'He's going over this year personally, taking his wife with him, no less. Well, he just wants to publicly display his affection.

'It seems that Mr. Charrington really sees Miss Darling as one of his own. He's even taking her to the deserted island. He probably wants Demonic Hall's people to know her identity and protect her from now on.'

“A deserted island?" Danielle said. She thought, 'As the name suggests, a deserted island is full of mountains and many poisonous plants. It's basically impossible to get out once people enter. Now, David says he has an organization on a deserted island. What kind of people could possibly be there?'

"Sure!" She agreed to come along.

Nathan thought, 'The people on the deserted island only recognize Mr. Charrington. I'm really worried that once we're there, something would happen to Miss Darling if Mr. Charrington isn't careful.' Nathan wanted to speak but stopped himself.

"Nathan, do you have something to say to me?" Danielle asked, noticing Nathan's conflicted look.

Nathan's face tensed up, thinking, 'I managed my expressions well. How did she see through it?'

Facing David and Danielle's gaze, Nathan gulped before biting the bullet to speak up.

"Miss Darling, the deserted island is a bit dangerous," he said. "Please protect yourself."

"Humph, the project that Charrington Group wants doesn't need to be given up by the Stuart family," David mocked. "The Stuart family is nothing. You are not even worthy of doing menial things for me.

"What if I don't want to be merciful? Are these words taught to you by the people backing you up?"

A look of panic flashed across Ronald's eyes. He thought, 'I used to be afraid of David, but now that I have Mr. Morris, I no longer have to fear him. Soon, David will be dead. When the time comes, I'll definitely avenge today's humiliation.'

"Mr. Charrington, Mr. Stuart didn't mean that," Wesley said. "We are naturally not worthy of doing menial things for the Charrington family. Please spare us, Mr. Charrington. I'll definitely teach my wife and daughter a lesson when I get back." Wesley appeared respectful on the surface, but deep down, he wished for David's death.

"The person you should be apologizing to is not me," David said, frowning. He couldn't be bothered to listen to the two talk.

Wesley and Ronald were clever. They turned around, bowed to Danielle, and said, "Miss Darling, we are really sorry. It's my fault for not disciplining my daughter well, making you feel wronged. I'll definitely discipline her strictly from now on and this will never happen again. Please be magnanimous and forgive them. This is a little compensation for you.”

Wesley and Ronald each took out a check and handed it to Danielle.

She glanced at the two but did not take the checks. Instead, she said indifferently, "You should educate them well and let them know who they can provoke and who they can't.”

'Joseph has already taken action against the two families, and these checks are probably all the money they can offer,' she thought.

Upon hearing that there was hope, the two hurriedly said, "Alright. Sure. We'll definitely not offend you again, Miss Darling.”

"Miss Darling, I have a question for you," Ronald said. "What is your relationship with the Darling family?" He then thought, 'Since yesterday, the Darling family has begun to suppress the Stuart family. Fortunately, Mr. Morris is around. Otherwise, we would have gone bankrupt.'

"You will know in the future," Danielle said. She did not give a definitive answer, nor did she deny it.

Ronald thought, 'This Danielle is very likely a distant relative of the Darling family. The reason she's suppressing the Stuart family is that she wants to curry favor with David.'
