Chapter 85-3
Not A Small-Town Girl
After confirming Danielle meant it, Kevin pushed the door open and ran out in a panic.
Patrick, who was standing at the side, did not expect Danielle to let Kevin off so easily after asking a few questions. He thought Danielle was too young and was not like what he heard from David.
[Kevinâs out of the casino. Follow him and see who he comes into contact with.] Danielle sent a message.
"Mrs. Charrington, should we send someone to keep an eye on Kevin?" Patrick asked.
"No need," Danielle said.
"But..." Patrick wanted to say something.
"Patrick, youâre talking too much," David said as a vicious look flashed across Davidâs eyes.
"Iâm sorry, Mrs. Charrington," Patrick apologized indignantly, but he was absolutely obedient to his boss. "Iâve already sent someone to follow Kevin," Danielle said calmly.
She knew what Patrick meant.
Then, she turned to look at Owen, who was watching the show.
"Can you show me this string of rosary beads?"
Danielle asked.
Owen was stunned for a moment, not expecting Danielle let him stay and watch the show just to see his rosary beads.
Facing Owenâs long silence, Liam decided to explain to ease the awkward atmosphere.
He said, "Miss, my boss got the rosary beads from the church. Theyâre very magical and not to be touched by others casually. Itâs said that wearing them will prevent illnesses and calm oneâs mind."
Danielle snorted coldly. Although she hadnât taken a closer look at the rosary beads, she was amused by Liamâs words. "Well, I donât think the rosary beads are good for you," Danielle said.
Owen and Liamâs faces darkened. Only David believed Danielle was right.
Liam said, "Miss, youâre quite beautiful, but your words are unpleasant to ear."
"What do you mean?" A trace of confusion flashed across Owenâs eyes as he asked.
"Literally," said Danielle.
"Are you saying thereâs something wrong with my rosary beads?" Owen asked.
He had been wearing the rosary beads for years. If there was a problem, he should have known long ago. However, he was puzzled as Danielle didnât look like she was lying.
"Danielle, letâs go home. Forget about him. Wouldnât it be better if something happened to him?" David said. He held Danielleâs hand and was about to walk out.
Owen was speechless. He was just momentarily confused.
Danielle didnât want to say more since Owen didnât believe her. In any case, she had reminded him.
