Not A Small-Town Girl

Chapter 47

David always felt that there was more to his mother’s death than met the eye. However, he had failed to find any conclusive evidence after all these years.

The plane flew for more than ten hours before landing at Treeside Villa.

David looked at Danielle who was sleeping soundly. He carried Danielle down the stairs, shocking everyone present.

Howard and Vivian didn’t know that Danielle went overseas with David. They had a feeling that Danielle and David had gotten a lot closer after this trip.

When Audrey, who was standing upstairs, saw David carrying Danielle, she was green with envy and wanted to yank Danielle out of David’s arms. Furious, Audrey wondered why everything that originally belonged to her became Danielle’s the moment Danielle returned to the family. A glint of malice flashed across Audrey’s eyes.

Danielle was woken up by a gentle breeze that brushed past her face. She was surprised to find out that she had slept for so long and that they were home now.

"Are you awake?" asked David.

He added, "Do you want to sleep a little longer?"

David was practically pampering Danielle like his own child.

Love was clearly in the air. Howard and Vivian were astonished to see the interaction between David and Danielle.

Danielle was somewhat amazed. Usually, she was a light sleeper and would wake up at the slightest sound. She also often had nightmares and at most slept for a few hours every night. However, with David by her side, the quality of her sleep
