Not A Small-Town Girl

Chapter 87

Danielle and David sat in the car.

Patrick, who was behind the wheel, glanced at Danielle through the rearview mirror. He usually spent most of his time abroad managing affairs for David and rarely interacted with Danielle.

David looked at Patrick and said, "If you don’t want your eyes, gouge them out."

"Mr. Charrington, I was wrong," Patrick said.

He was also aware that he had been impolite, but he was just a little curious about how Danielle knew that the rosary beads were poisonous. ’She seems to be an expert at removing poison,’ he thought.

"What do you want to ask?" Danielle asked.

She had long noticed that Patrick had something to ask, and she reckoned that it was probably because David was around that he felt embarrassed to ask immediately. Patrick glanced at his boss, who was the jealous type when it came to romantic matters.

David then nodded at him.

"Um, Mrs. Charrington, I wanted to ask how you knew the rosary beads were poisonous with just one look?" Patrick asked.

"I smelled it," Danielle said. "My sense of smell is much sharper than average people’s. Coupled with his physical condition, I deduced it."

Patrick thought, ’Oh wow. I’m surprised she can actually deduce based on that...

"Mrs. Charrington, you’re amazing," he said. "You can even tell that they are poisonous. Where did you buy that small pill? It looks really powerful."

"I didn’t buy it," Danielle said. "I made it myself."

Danielle knew that Patrick was one of David’s right-hand men, so she did not hide it from him.

"Mrs. Charrington, you can make medicine too? That’s amazing. No wonder you’re the woman our boss has a thing for."

David could not help but smile.

Danielle showed a stern expression and said coldly, "If I couldn’t make medicine, does that mean your boss wouldn’t have a thing for me then?"

Patrick said, "No, no. Mrs. Charrington, that’s not what I meant. I meant you’re amazing. Even if you didn’t know anything, our boss would still have a thing for you."

Patrick was so frightened that his words started to become jumbled.

As Danielle saw Patrick stuttering while replying, she burst out laughing.

"Feeling happy now?" David asked as he playfully held Danielle’s small hand, finding it very soft.

The car slowly moved into the manor.

"Do you want to grab some snacks?" David asked.
