The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 595 A Woman’s Thoughts



"What business? What are you talking about?" Daniel inquired, his curiosity piqued.

"The Perkins Organization! TMO wants to build a cooperative relationship with The Perkins Organization-a strategic collaboration. If we can achieve that, TMO can expand into Washington, establish a branch here, and secure our footing," Jessica explained, her eyes shining with the gleam of ambition. It was apparent she wasn't content with TMO only doing well in New York; she aspired to more.

"Is The Perkins Organization really that powerful? Wyatt wants to cooperate with them, and so do you?" Daniel asked.

"Of course! They're the number one group in the USA! The leading tycoons!" Jessica stressed the significance of The Perkins Organization.

"Isn't The Perkins Organization owned by the Perkins family? Why don't you directly speak to Down? He is the big-shot heir of the Perkins, and he fancies you! You only need to throw yourself at him, and he'll surely give you all the business you'd want," Daniel suggested, only half-serious.

As soon as the words left his mouth, Jessica grabbed him and pinched hard.

"Idiot, what nonsense are you spouting?" she scolded.

"Ouch! Ouch!" Daniel yelped, melodramatically reacting to the pinch.

"I was wrong, honey! Terribly wrong! I won't say another word, I swear!" Daniel hastily promised.

Jessica let go then, but not before giving him a sound slap on the back.

"Honey, you slapped me?"

"And what of it?" she challenged.

"But... my butt is off-limits!"

"Off-limits? I bet I can make it swell with a good spanking," Jessica threatened as she delivered another stinging slap.

The slap landed with satisfying contact, and she found she took an excessive pleasure in the action. Unaware that each slap transferred a bit of Daniel's Genki into her, making her feel unusually pleasant afterward-Jessica felt a burst of joy. Her beautiful face beamed with happiness, displaying a brighter smile than the blossoming spring flowers.

"So, idiot, what do you want to eat?" she asked, still in high spirits.

"You!" Daniel cheekily responded.

"Get lost! Shameless!" Jessica scoffed, rolling her eyes. "Not much is good in Washington, but there's one place Beauty took me to that was decent. Shall we go there?"

"What if I say I don't want to go?"

"It's not an option!"

Jessica was merely feigning an interest in Daniel's opinion and just dragged him along when he resisted. The nearby streets were lined with bars. The restaurant's décor was simple, characteristic of a small diner, but the quality of food attracted many patrons.

Once seated, Jessica handed the menu to Daniel, "What do you want to eat?"

"Lobster, grilled oysters..." Daniel barely managed to order a few items before Jessica snatched the menu away from him.

Once the food was served, Daniel was taken aback by the excessive amount of lamb kidneys she had ordered.
