Trapped with Daniel

"Jerry, what on earth are you talking about!", said Janet. She was too sheepish to look Jerry straight in the eye. 'Did they see Daniel downstairs?', she wondered.

Sally then whispered to Janet, "When we were on our way back here, we came across my brother. He was returning to his mansion from here, right?"

Janet completely denied and shook her head, and she changed the topic immediately, "Jerry, what's in this?"

Jerry took a sniff out of it and then covered the lid, "Don't you know? It's an ointment developed by Chuck."

"An ointment? For what?" asked Janet.

"For an injury, bruise, whatever. It works pretty well, " replied Jerry. Jerry squinted at Janet, who was suddenly lost in thought, and then realized what had just happened.

He passed the ointment back to his sister, "Where does it hurt?" 'Daniel brought it, ' thought Jerry.

"I accidentally hurt my elbow. But forget about it. Jerry, Sally, I'm going to sleep now."

Janet then took the ointment out of Jerry's hands and then swiftly went on her way back to her bedroom.

"Jane, what about us sleeping together?" asked Sally. She watched Janet running off. 'You've abandoned me so fast!' she thought.

Jerry then said, ''Dear, don't even think about it. We're sleeping together!"

...

In the bedroom

Janet gawked at the ointment, and she was now confused. 'What does Daniel really want from me?

What the hell was he doing here in the first place? Was he wielding both the carrot and the stick?'

Disgruntled, Janet threw the ointment in the trash bin. 'I don't give a fuck for any of your stuff!

Now go to sleep!' she thought.

She turned on the bed lamp, turned off the other lights in the bedroom, covered herself with the quilt, closed her eyes and then went to sleep.

Five minutes later

She tossed and turned for a while and then got up from her bed and searched the trash...

After this, she picked up her phone, and texted Brian on WeChat, "Brian, Daniel was talking nonsense. I am not his mistress..."

On second thought, she deleted those words.

'Honestly, if Jerry hadn't called me in the nick of time, I probably would've had sex with Daniel...'

Feelin

“Who does she think she is? I won’t marry her even if she is the last woman on earth,” said Hiram Rong.

“Marry into a family with tens of billions of assets? How lucky I am! I won’t be so foolish as to break off the engagement. At worst, I can receive money as part of the divorce settlement,” said Rachel Ruan.

Their great-grandfathers made a pact about their engagement a hundred years ago...

niel is fair on the outside and foul within. Poor girls, you are just as blind as I am, ' Janet thought.

"1000 pieces of Mango Mousse Cake a week, 50% off, " replied Daniel.

He was so busy at the moment that he had to do two things at once.

"50% off? Do you think I'm stupid?" asked Janet. She wouldn't earn a penny if she took 50% off it's price.

"Er, you wouldn't lose a penny if you take 50% off of it, " Daniel replied. No gains but no losses.

Janet resisted the desire to bang her fist on the table. Why was Daniel so astute! She gnashed her teeth, and said, "Don't treat me as your business competitor."

She knew his move, and he was bargaining. Huh...

Now, Daniel looked straight at her, "You are not that stupid!"

"Piss off, you are such an eyesore!" Janet stood up and was just about to leave.

"No discount, " said Daniel. Janet turned around immediately and stood next to him.

"Deal!" she said.

"Take it easy, I still have a condition!" 'I have to have the upper hand!" he thought.

Janet cast a cold glance at him. She knew he wouldn't make any concessions.

"Say it already!" she demanded.

"You have to make one more delicious dessert each time... and send it to my office."

"That's it?" she asked. Janet got closer to Daniel, who was working, 'Is it really that simple?' she thought.

Daniel felt her breath close to him and then suddenly looked up. The distance between them was just a few inches.
