Not A Small-Town Girl

richest man in Aleria goes by the surname Darling."

"Let’s not discuss Mr. Charrington’s family matters and do our job."

The maids then went about their job diligently again.

"Eat more."

David enjoyed his meal when he watched Danielle eat. Every time he ate with her, he would eat a bit more.

"Denny called me early in the morning, saying he found Hugh in Fleoria and even saw Jackson there.

Danielle nibbled her food in an adorable manner, not forgetting to chat with David at the same time.

"Isn’t Jackson dead?" David asked in puzzlement. He thought, ’I was the one who personally killed Jackson back then. There’s no way Denny could have seen Jackson.’

"I suspect that Jackson has a twin brother, or that the one you killed back then was a substitute," Danielle said. "It’s just that they look very alike."

Admittedly, Danielle was actually right in her analysis.

"They’re probably still continuing the previous experiment in Fleoria," she said. "I told Denny to keep an eye on them and see if he can find the location of the lab."

"I’ll send someone to find out the location of their lab," David said slowly while placing food on Danielle’s plate. "If Jackson really isn’t dead, he’ll likely come to take revenge. You have to be extra careful."

"I know. Don’t worry."

The interior of the room was simple yet luxurious. There was a soft bed, a comfortable sofa, and exquisite furniture. The air was filled with a faint fragrance that made people feel peaceful and relaxed.

A few caregivers were combing Tara’s hair. For the past few years, she had been staying in the hospital all year round, but she had aged gracefully.

David held Danielle’s hand as they walked into the ward.

Tara felt a great sense of familiarity when he saw David, as if she had seen him somewhere before, but she could not remember where.

"Who are you?" she asked, her face showing kindness.

David pulled Danielle over and introduced her to Tara, saying, "Grandma, I’m David. This is my fiancée, Danielle."
