Chapter 164-1

Nathan knew that Danielle was no ordinary girl. She was skilled and had many identities, but David’s enemies were far too dangerous.

"Who says I can only be a weakness and not armor?" Danielle’s voice preceded her arrival.

She walked in, her expression calm today.

David was a little surprised that Danielle had arrived. He stood up from the sofa, the coldness in his eyes melting away instantly. It was filled with an overwhelming sense of tenderness in the next moment. "Miss me, huh?" he said, embracing Danielle.

"I wouldn’t dare miss you as I’m afraid of holding you back," Danielle said, pushing David away and sitting down on the sofa as she pouted.

Noticing that Danielle was angry, David shot Nathan a glare.

He then gently comforted her, saying, "How could that be? You are my armor."

Nathan, receiving his boss’s blaming gaze, hurriedly apologized. "I’m sorry, Miss Darling," he said. "That’s not what I meant. I know you’re very capable. I was just worried that you would get hurt."

Danielle was not angry. She said indifferently, "I’m not worried about those things. You’re overthinking things. I’m not a pushover."

"Was it you who sent someone to block Scorpion?" David asked, looking at Danielle affectionately with his attractive eyes.

"How did you know?" Danielle said. "Could it be that my people got hurt from fighting with yours?" She facepalmed, thinking, ’I was careless. I thought David was simply capturing Scorpion. Unexpectedly, he took down the entire drug trafficking group. The people I sent this time happened to have never met David’s people.’

"Miss Darling, were the people blocking Patrick sent by you?" Nathan asked, feeling confused. He thought, ’So, both sides were injured from fighting their own people.’

Danielle said somewhat sheepishly, "Well, the people I sent this time didn’t know yours."

She received a call on her way to Nathor Palace, saying that the people she sent were injured and had been taken by the other party. She was cursing while driving. It was only when David asked earlier that she realized what had happened. She was left speechless...

David rubbed Danielle’s hair and said with a chuckle, "It’s a good chance to train their skills."

"Nathan thought, ’Mr. Charrington, do you even realize what you just said?’

"In a week, an organization under me has an assessment on a deserted island," David said casually. "Want to go and have a look?"

Nathan widened his eyes, thinking, ’He’s going over this year personally, taking his wife with him, no less. Well, he just wants to publicly display his affection.

’It seems that Mr. Charrington really sees Miss Darling as one of his own. He’s even taking her to the deserted island. He probably wants Demonic Hall’s people to know her identity and protect her from now on.’

“A deserted island?" Danielle said. She thought, ’As the name suggests, a deserted island is full of mountains and many poisonous plants. It’s basically impossible to get out once people enter. Now, David says he has an organization on a deserted island. What kind of people could possibly be there?’

"Sure!" She agreed to come along.

Nathan thought, ’The people on the deserted island only recognize Mr. Charrington. I’m really worried that once we’re there, something would happen to Miss Darling if Mr. Charrington isn’t careful.’ Nathan wanted to speak but stopped himself.

"Nathan, do you have something to say to me?" Danielle asked, noticing Nathan’s conflicted look.

Nathan’s face tensed up, thinking, ’I managed my expressions well. How did she see through it?’

Facing David and Danielle’s gaze, Nathan gulped before biting the bullet to speak up.

"Miss Darling, the deserted island is a bit dangerous," he said. "Please protect yourself."
