Not A Small-Town Girl
Chapter 97-2

scene...

The bodyguards who couldn’t read the room thought, ’We’re being falsely accused. There’s no way we’d dare to look. Can’t you see that we’re about to bury our heads in the ground...

"Ding, ding, ding."

"Ding, ding, ding."

The sound of a bell broke David and Danielle’s beautiful moment.

David picked up his phone and noticed that it was a call from Patrick. He answered it angrily.

"Shoot," he said. Then, he thought, ’How come my subordinates are so clueless? Can’t they see I’m on a date?’

Patrick was shocked, thinking, ’What’s wrong with Mr. Charrington? Has he been riled up? With that tone, if nothing serious happens to me, I’ll probably be sent to Sheaniea again. I don’t want that. Mr. Charrington has just promised to transfer me back to the country this time.’

"Want to get in trouble, huh?" David noticed that Patrick kept remaining silent, playing the mute game with him.

Patrick was so shocked that he flinched, almost tossing the phone away. "Mr. Charrington, we’ve caught those people," he said. "Do you want to come over?"

"I’ll be there later." David hung up without showing consideration for Patrick’s feelings.

Patrick wanted to say something else, but he heard a busy signal on the other end of the line...

"Is there anything urgent?" Danielle asked.

"Nope," David said. "Those people who killed Kevin have been caught. I’ll go check on them later." David still wanted to stay with Danielle a bit longer. He wasn’t in the mood to care about those unimportant people.

"I’ll go with you." Those people had planned it, and there was clearly an escape route. Danielle was somewhat surprised by how quickly David caught them.

"Alright," David said.

"Ding, ding, ding."

"Ding, ding, ding."

Just as David was about to say something to Danielle, another ring interrupted his words.

With a displeased expression, he picked up his phone. Noticing that the caller was Nathan, he thought, ’What are these two brothers up to?’

"What’s the matter?" David’s tone was even gloomier than before.

Nathan thought, ’What’s wrong with Mr. Charrington? Could it be that Tara’s illness has relapsed? But that’s not possible. Patrick said that she had been cured by Mrs. Charrington. Could it be that something has happened...!
