Not A Small-Town Girl

seducing David to Skylar’s disrespect for her.

Audrey pinned all the blame on Skylar as if she was wronged.

"Miss Darling, you, you..." Skylar stammered.

"Why are you guys still standing here? Take this woman out as Joseph ordered!" Audrey instructed.

Skylar fell to the ground. She knew that she could not get away with it. In this way, she thought staying in the Darling family was much better than being taken away by David’s men.

A few security guards quickly went forward and dragged Skylar out.

Audrey didn’t dare to keep Skylar in the living room anymore, afraid that she would spill the beans.

Audrey would think of a way to silence her.

She assumed making Skylar the scapegoat could be considered as fulfilling her value. This way, Audrey could also protect herself. Audrey thought her parents probably wouldn’t pursue what happened in the morning. After all, she was also wronged.

At the thought of this, the corners of Audrey’s mouth curled up into a smile. She said silently to herself that she would let Danielle pay.

The living room finally quietened down.

Danielle looked at Audrey’s smug expression.

She said with disdain, "Audrey, since you know David is your brother-in-law, stay away from him. He doesn’t take action against others easily, especially in the Darling family.

"I don’t want to fuss over small things, but that doesn’t mean I don’t have a temper. If one day you piss me off, I’ll make your life worse than death."

Danielle’s expression was indifferent. Compared to the affection her adoptive parents had for her in Bane Springs, she could feel the love her parents and brother had for her ever since she returned to the Darling family, She could tolerate Audrey for the sake of her parents.

She could live peacefully with Audrey under the same roof as long as the latter didn’t ask for trouble.

Danielle’s words meant that she had let it pass. After all, if they were at the border, Audrey would have disappeared long ago.

Danielle had never been a kind person. It could even be said that she was a little cruel.

Howard was at a loss. When David punished Skylar, Howard was against him. He wondered if Danielle said that because she blamed him for not standing up for her.

At the thought of this, Howard panicked.

He said, "Audrey, since you know David is your brother-in-law, you should know some boundaries. Don’t overthink.

"Now, go back to your room. You’re grounded until school starts. You’re not allowed to leave your room without my permission."
