Not A Small-Town Girl

----

Sebastian shuddered at Polly’s vicious eyes and said,

"Once we kick David out of the Charrington Group and he

falls into our hands, | will make him suffer."

"Yes." Polly looked satisfied.

The Luxe Styling Studio.

In the spacious, bright, and luxurious room.

David, in adailored suit that .

accentuated his sharp features, ©

stood kéfore the floor-to-ceiling>

window, his expression cold ag’/he

gazed at the cityscape. He appeared

baih noble and solitary.

----

Just then, Danielle emerged, having changed into her

gown.

"David."

Her soft voice pulled David’s thoughts back, and he turned

to look at Danielle.

Danielle wore a water-blue strapless gown that perfectly

showcased her curvy figure.

Her full, prominent chest and delicate waist, barely the

width of a hand, were accentuated by the water-blue gown,

making her fair skin appear even more radiant.

The cool blue of the dress highlighted Danielle’s aloof

beauty and enhanced her charm, making her look like an

angel who had just transformed into a human.

Just one glance was enough to captivate anyone, igniting a

desire to possess her completely.

----

David was slightly stunned as he swallowed hard.

“Don’t you like it?" Danielle thought David didn’t like it since

he didn’t respond.

As a designer, she felt the dress was simple yet elegant,

perfect for her. But the man in front of her didn’t show much

reaction.

“Danielle, you are so beautiful.”

David pulled Danielle into his arms, wanting to kiss her.

An untimely voice suddenly broke the moment. "Oh dear,

did | come at the wrong time?"

----

“How about | go out first and let you two have a kiss? I’ll

come back later. But don’t kiss for too long, we still need to

do your styling," Selina said with a smirk.

David’s face darkened as he muttered, "If you know it’s the

wrong time, leave now."

Danielle’s face flushed red as she quickly pushed David

away. "Selina, let’s go do the styling.”

David’s gaze lingered on Danielle’s revealing neck, and his

expression darkened further. "Danielle, this dress doesn’t

suit you. Change into another one."

----

Danielle looked at herself in the mirror and thought the

dress fit well. Then she realized what he meant. It was a bit

too revealing.

She turned and grabbed a shawl, draping it over her

shoulders. Her eyes blinked at David as she said, "Is it

suitable now?"

David looked at Danielle with a dangerous look, wishing he

could eat her up right now.

Noticing his fiery gaze, Danielle felt a rush of panic. She

quickly decided to escape. "I’ll go get my styling done,” she

said and hurried off.

----

At this moment.

The downfall of the Stuart family in Soufield suddenly

caused an uproar.

With substantial investment from Prosper Group, the Stuart

family had recently been the most prominent family in

Soufield, and no one expected them to declare bankruptcy

overnight.

their relatives faced big troubles.
