Not A Small-Town Girl

“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 | don’t want to be merciful? Are these words taught to

you by the people backing you up?"

Alook of panic flashed across Ronald’s eyes. He thought, ’I

used to be afraid of David, but now that | have Mr. Morris, | 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 | 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 und, bowed to

Danielle, ansaid, "Miss Darling, we

are really’sorry. It’s my fault for noe

disciplining my daughter well, S

making you feel wronged. |’ll Lv

definitely discipline her strictly from

on and this will never.tappen

again. Please be magnartimous 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, | 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.’
