Not A Small-Town Girl

Chapter 99

David looked at Danielle in amusement. The corners of his mouth could not help but curl up as he said, "Okay, little greedy cat."

He then instructed the restaurant manager, "The dishes can be served now."

"Alright, Mr. Charrington," the restaurant manager said respectfully.

Danielle took out a gift box from her bag, pushed it over to David, and said, "This is for you. Guess what it is."

David was somewhat surprised as he looked at the gift box in front of him, seemingly not expecting that Danielle would give him a gift.

He picked up the gift box in front of him very seriously. "A watch?"

Danielle gave David an eye-roll, thinking, ’Jeez, can’t this clueless guy not blurt out the correct answer right away?’

Getting eye-rolled at by Danielle, David looked a little aggrieved. "Danielle, I was wrong."

"What did you do wrong?" Danielle looked at David’s aggrieved expression with her beautiful eyes.

He began to reflect, thinking, ’What did I do wrong? I don’t think I did anything wrong, but since Danielle said I did, I must have. In any case, apologizing first is always the right move. Could it be that I guessed the gift correctly...’

"I was wrong in every way. I made you unhappy." He was very sincere in admitting his mistake.

Danielle held back her laughter. "Open it and see if you like it."

"I like it. I like whatever you give me. I’ll cherish it." Before David opened the box, he started to express his stance eagerly.

When he opened the gift box, there was a watch inside. He finally knew why Danielle had glared at him earlier. He quickly made a mental note, thinking, ’When Danielle gives me a gift next time, I shouldn’t guess it right on the first try.

’Danielle, did you design it yourself?’ David picked up the watch, unable to make out the brand. He figured it was likely that Danielle designed it herself, and he liked this watch.

"Yes, it’s not as good as what you usually wear. Don’t mind it." She wanted to give David a gift as soon as possible. The design of the watch was done in a hurry with multiple drafts before she finally settled on this one. She thought it would suit him perfectly.

David quickly took off his watch which was worth millions of dollars and tossed it aside. "Danielle, the watch you gave me is more valuable to me than any watch in this world. Its value is beyond measure. I absolutely love it."

His eyes were filled with love for her. As he spoke, he stretched out his hand toward her and said, "Danielle, help me put it on."
