The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 219 The Sudden Invitation

Sniffing as much as she could, Jessica only detected the scent of alcohol and some trace of cooking fumes on Daniel. There was no hint of any woman's perfume. And her eyes were busy too, scouring Daniel’s appearance for any suspicious marks. There were no traces of women's hair or lipstick marks on him, so it seemed he hadn't got mixed up in anything inappropriate with his male colleagues.

Seeing Jessica stop sniffing, Daniel couldn't help but ask with a grin, “Wanting to know if I touched another woman?”

"You guess?"

"Rest assured, I wouldn't mess around with other women."

"You better not!" Jessica grabbed the small scissors from the coffee table and gave them a threatening squeeze.

Snap! Snap!

The sound alone was enough to send shivers down a person's spine.

"With such a beautiful dear as you, why would I dare to fool around? You’re the only one I'd ever mess with."

With that, Daniel moved in closer to Jessica.

"Get lost!" Jessica playfully punched him away.

"Go take a shower! You stink!"

"Dear, wait for me!"

Daniel dashed into the bathroom. After a thorough scrubbing, he came out fresh and wrapped in a bath towel. However, Jessica was nowhere to be seen in the villa.

"Damn woman, she actually played me like that?" Daniel was annoyed. He had taken a shower for nothing.

The next day, Daniel lay in bed watching videos until noon. It was only when his stomach growled with hunger that he finally got up and headed to the office. But instead of going to his own office, he carried a KFC bucket to the president's office.

"Dear, I brought you lunch."

Jessica glanced at the bucket he was holding and remarked, “Is this your idea of lunch? Are you moonlighting at KFC?”
